I'm one of the few Progressives who doesn't give a shit about climate change. Not because I think it's a hoax, but because I think we're past the point of no return, and even if we weren't there's exactly ZERO chance in Hell the human race could get its act together enough to fix the problem.

It's like being on the Titanic and all the lifeboats are gone. I could run around like a chicken with my head cut off screaming or, I could sit back with a nice glass of brandy, a fine cigar and listen to the band play Nearer My God To Thee as we go down. (Though I'm afraid of drowning so I'd put a bullet in my head before the VERY end.)

So I don't conserve, I only recycle because my fuckin city put clear garbage bags in, but they allow us one black bag so I sneak shit in there that doesn't belong all the time. I resist whenever possible. Why should I discomfort myself if we're all fucked anyway?
