“We’re All Gonna Die”

Slouching From the Cheerios – #Whiners

From the WaPost.com, “The baffling reason many millennials don’t eat cereal“.

Few things are as painless to prepare as cereal. Making it requires little more than pouring something (a cereal of your choice) into a bowl and then pouring something else (a milk of your choice) into the same bowl. Eating it requires Bernie_Birdie_Supporters_01little more than a spoon and your mouth. The food, which Americans still buy $10 billion of annually, has thrived over the decades, at least in part, because of this very quality: its convenience.

And yet, for today’s youth, cereal isn’t easy enough.

[A]nother thing happening, which should scare cereal makers — and, really, anyone who has a stake in this country’s future — more: A large contingent of millennials are uninterested in breakfast cereal because eating it means using a bowl, and bowls don’t clean themselves (or get tossed in the garbage). Bowls, kids these days groan, have to be cleaned.

Spring Fails to Show This Year

by

Here’s another AGW-Climate Change-Global Warming (AKA: Weather) update from the annals of AccuWeather.com, “Spring snowstorm to target Boston, graze NYC, Philly“.

With the first day of spring ending up colder than Christmas Day, the stage is set for disruptive snow to ride up the coast of the northeastern United States AGW_Research_Fail_01Sunday evening into Monday.

After wet snow in the mid-Atlantic struggles to stick to roads, the threat of snow-covered roads will heighten Sunday evening into Monday as an offshore storm begins to strengthen and cause moderate to heavy snow along the Northeast coast.

Daily Darwin – Cabin Fever, AGW Style

by

Darwin duly notes that this “fevered” camper was undoubtedly crazed by AGW-Climate Change-Global Warming (AKA: Weather). Otherwise, what the ‘effing hell would he have been doing on the roof of his cabin during avalanche season? Not only was he risking freezing the family jewels (not good for the old genome count), but burying them until Spring Thaw–which has been known to decrease the opportunity to pass those very genomes along.

Natural selection deems that some individuals serve as a warning to others. Who are we to disagree? The next generation, ever and anon, is descended from the survivors

America’s New Navy – 1800’s Style

In case you missed it because you were watching the Presidential Debates and exercising your right to vote in the Primaries, The Washington Times reports, “Pentagon orders commanders to prioritize climate change in all military actions“.  We are so screwed….

The Pentagon is ordering the top brass to incorporate climate change into virtually everything they do, from testing weapons to training troops to war Wind_Powered_Aircraft_Carrierplanning to joint exercises with allies.
A new directive’s theme: The U.S. Armed Forces must show “resilience” and beat back the threat based on “actionable science.”
It says the military will not be able to maintain effectiveness unless the directive is followed. It orders the establishment of a new layer of bureaucracy — a wide array of “climate change boards, councils and working groups” to infuse climate change into “programs, plans and policies.”
