We Are All Icarus Now
June 21, 2024
Yesterday was the Summer Solstice. You might
be too delirious from the excessive heat to have noticed. Today is the first
full day of what is guaranteed to be the hottest summer on record…again.
As we go to press, much of the country is
broiling under what is known as a “heat dome” with days and days of
temperatures in the mid-to-high 90s. If you lie down in the sun, you could fry
an egg on your forehead. But your lips will be so burned that you won’t be able
to open your mouth wide enough to eat your freshly fried egg. Don’t try this at
home.
Texas,
aka West Florida, one of the most draconian states “in” the union, is – despite
what they’d like us to believe – awash in renewable energy. Texan Jeff Goodell,
author of The Heat Will Kill You First stated that the Lone Brain Cell
State “is not exactly full of tree-huggers and yet our grid is often 60 or 70%
powered by renewable energy.”
Thank goodness this climate crisis is just a
hoax. Imagine how bad it would be if it was real.
Happy summer everyone.
Was that not in fact fun?
