       | to long-term erosions it's ever changing.

       | Pretending we can "save" the Earth is expressive narcissism at
       | its best. We are still 6' shallow of peak interglacial sea
       | levels. It's going to rise no matter what we do.

       | In less than 100 years I want both icecaps melted. Man needs more
       | land and that's where we'll find it. Adapt and survive. This
       | planet is ours. We don't owe rocks and bugs anything.
       | 
       | We're also going to live in the fucking ocean en masse and it's
       | going to be awesome. Fuck space.
