    The fun thing about reality is, it doesn’t care what you want to be true or not.

    The science indicates that the earth is rapidly warming, caused by greenhouse gases released by humans, and that one of the severe environmental effects of that is rising sea levels due to melting polar ice.

    Florida can’t wish that away, and will have to deal with it sooner or later.

      The kind of people who vote for this are commonly older and all about self over community–which is to say, they don’t give a fuck about the future. They care about squeezing the most out of the present for themselves before they die.
