Have you wondered why you have difficulty thriving in America, 6ix? Since you can't accept that you are a stupid asshole, you immediately were attracted to Trump's explanation that your struggles are not your fault. For example, Trump tells you that your CO2 emissions are not changing the climate because "Climate Change Is A Chinese Hoax". Trump absolves you of all responsibility. Nothing is your fault, 6ix.

Apparently you didn't read their article I linked, because you have the mind of a 5 year old.
But I don't believe shit the WEF says either, so who knows.
I just built this yesterday in my house that I paid cash for, and my monthly energy expenditures at home are constantly 10% to 40% less than my "efficient neighbors" according to my power company.
I'm doing just fine. I don't need Trump to tell me how awesome I am.
I suggest that you do something with your life. If you were able to accomplish something on your own that was a source of pride for you, you wouldn't need to parrot whatever MSNBC tells you to think online and remind strangers online everyday that you are perfect and have no vices because you vote Democrat in order to feel good about yourself.
Your lies are self-destructive. I think it really gets to you that I've actually turned my life around after I quit drinking and I don't fit into your little "Texas Republican" mold you've solidified in your mind.
I'm going to keep getting better, regardless of who wins elections, and you're just going to keep sliding further into insanity.

This was adequate for you, huh?
No thanks, buddy. I'll let the Socialists like you settle for adequate.
How many hours this week have you wasted away watching movies and TV shows that you pirated when you're desperately trying to find anything in the world to keep your mind from your chronic obsessing over Trump?

In all, solar and battery storage will be responsible for more than 80 percent of all new electricity capacity in the US this year.
The EIA says the US generates nine times more electricity today than it did in 1950. The demand is expected to double or triple again by 2050.
The 62.8 GW of new electricity capacity planned for this year will be 55 percent more than the 40.4 GW of electricity that was added in 2023.
The vast majority — 36.4 GW, or 58 percent — will come from new utility-scale solar installations. Last year, only 18.4 GW of solar capacity was added to the grid as supply chain and permitting issues continued to impact the solar industry.
In addition, another 14.3 GW, or 23 percent, will be provided by new battery storage facilities, 23 percent of the total.

SECOND doesn't waste his time trying "not" to obsess about Trump, he wastes his time obsessing about Trump. And Russia. And "Trumptards". And whoever hapoens to be on his shitlist that month. He's got those ideological turds polished to a high shine.
That's what happens when your mind is a closed, dark maze.

Signym is selling a climate change solution called the One Trillion Trees Initiative, a Trump plan, and 6ix mocks electric cars as coal-burners.

Neither 6ix nor Signym has a problem with Russia conquering the world because neither has acknowledged that Russia killed 62 million Russians (plus Kremlin critic Alexey Navalny this week) and that Russia would do the same to the world as it is now doing to Ukraine.

Ross Gelbspan, Who Exposed Roots of Climate Change Deniers, Dies at 84
A longtime investigative journalist, he wrote books and articles that documented a campaign of disinformation intended to sow doubt about global warming.
By Trip Gabriel | Feb. 16, 2024

Ross Gelbspan, an investigative journalist whose reporting on climate change exposed a campaign of disinformation by oil and gas lobbyists to sow doubt about global warming — a denialism that was embraced by Republican officials and, in some cases, by a credulous news media — died on Jan. 27 at his home in Boston. He was 84.
The cause was chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, his wife, Anne Gelbspan, said.
Mr. Gelbspan’s career included reporting on dissidents in the Soviet Union and on F.B.I. harassment of domestic critics, and his interest in the climate crisis, like those other subjects, came from a sense of outrage that powerful interests were suppressing information needed for democracy.
“I didn’t get into the climate issue because I love the trees — I tolerate the trees,” he said on YouTube last year. “I got into the issue because I learned the coal industry was paying a handful of scientists under the table to say nothing was happening to the climate.”
In a 1995 cover story for Harper’s Magazine headlined “The Heat Is On,” which he expanded into a 1997 book with the same title, Mr. Gelbspan shined a light on a group of scientists that coal and oil groups had paid to tell lawmakers and journalists that global warming wasn’t a serious threat. He dug up a 1991 memo from the fossil fuel lobby calling for a strategy to “reposition global warming as theory rather than fact.” At a news conference, President Bill Clinton held up the book and said he was reading it.
“In ‘The Heat Is On,’ Ross was the first to do a serious debunking of the campaign by the oil and coal companies to promote and finance a pseudoscientific narrative of denial,” Robert Kuttner, co-editor of the magazine The American Prospect, to which Mr. Gelbspan contributed, said in an email. “He combined a deep concern about our common future with the passion and skill of a dogged investigative reporter.”
Mr. Gelbspan wrote in Harper’s that one of the prominent climate skeptics, Richard S. Lindzen of M.I.T., speaking on behalf of a coal lobbying group, testified in 1994 at a government hearing that a doubling of carbon emissions over the next century would cause temperatures to rise no more than a negligible 0.3 degrees Celsius. Since that testimony, the planet has already warmed 0.86 degrees Celsius, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
In a second book, “Boiling Point” (2004), Mr. Gelbspan was tough on his own profession, accusing reporters of laziness in falling for the “manufactured denial” of the fossil fuel industry.
Many journalists, he said, were undermined by their ethic of even-handedness, which added false balance to stories that reflexively included climate skeptics.
“For many years, the press accorded the same weight to the ‘skeptics’ as it did to mainstream scientists,” he wrote. “The issue of balance is not relevant when the focus of a story is factual. In this case, what is known about the climate comes from the largest and most rigorously peer-reviewed scientific collaboration in history.”
Reviewing “Boiling Point” in The New York Times, Al Gore, the 2000 Democratic presidential nominee, wrote, “Part of what makes this book important is its indictment of the American news media’s coverage of global warming for the past two decades.”
But Mr. Gelbspan’s chief targets remained companies like Exxon Mobil, which funded the denial of climate science, and industry-supporting officials, mainly Republicans, such as President George W. Bush, who ran for the White House promising to cap carbon emissions from power plants, then reneged under industry pressure months into his tenure. That same month, his administration withdrew from the Kyoto Protocol, an a

SECONDRATE: For the record, 6ix has lived in his house for two decades but only now is 6ix fixing what is in those pictures. 6ix has been obsessively writing about the excruciatingly slow-moving carpentry in just that one opening in the wall for months. Slowness is a prime characteristic of a retard.
Actually , the prime characteristic of a retard is NOT BEING ABLE TO LEARN.
I'm continually amazed by all of the skills that SIX has learned, from computer software and hardware to carpentry, major house-fixes like foundation repair, hydrology, plumbing, wiring, LADA diabetes management, and car repair.
What have YOU learned lately?
All you do is obsessively post lies and hate 24/7/365.
Get off your ass. Stop lying. Learn something new. Do something useful that you can take pride in. You'll feel better, I promise.

Thanks sigs.
Yeah. It's as if he's saying that I've spent every waking hour working on that opening for months to the exclusion of everything else I've done in that time.
I haven't lived here for decades. I've lived here 12.5 years. 5 of those years I wasted to drinking, which is a problem I brought with me to the house, with only the first two of them actually getting anything done. I'm not going to apologize to Second for that waste of time. I've already made apologies to anybody that I was going to apologize to for that behavior a long time ago.
I've also never once used the word carpentry. It's not carpentry. I'm not a carpenter.
The overlook isn't done yet either, but as I finish that, I'll also be working on repairing and refinishing those stairs. Just like I repaired and refinished that entire room after I began working on the overlook.
And I'm sure I'll be doing other things in the meantime, like helping my friend clear out his dad's garage and house, and helping my brother learn more about his computer while setting up his MacOS/Windows dual platform stuff over the phone, and helping my aunt get all of her stuff setup online... And seriously... do you know how much it takes to cook up this sweet blue meth in my bathtub? The shit literally sells itself but cooking just takes up so much of the day.

Everybody who was going to buy a coal burning car now already has one. That's it. It's over.
2/3rds of dealerships don't even want them on their lots anymore.
You got got, son.
