A year at sea: The reality of living on a permanent cruise
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/50125188
🌎 Humanity is truly living its best ClimateCatch22 dream:
The hotter > The more ACs > The more Electricity consumption > The hotter
⛵ Meanwhile the rich take advantage of the rising water levels, MOVING onto superyachts & forever cruiseships (for one last journey).
⛽ Burning through a cool $1 million of diesel per refueling.

Fuck leaving any money around for your kids. Give it all to the giant corporations
Money wise this seems similar to living in a retirement home.
Your ancestors must be very proud of you.
And I'm not talking about kids, I'm talking about your focus on lacking responsibility in life. That's the exact mentality I'm talking about.
They didn't ask to be born and live up to the standards of some random people from their past bloodline and their antiquated view of how they should live their life.
What a dumb take. Let people live the lives they want to. Be jealous all you want, but don't project that onto others because they chose a path you didn’t that doesn't hurt anyone.
Besides, if you go back in history to before birth control, every single woman in that bloodline would be cheering like mad for their lack of constant pregnancy. Women used to look forward to miscarriages. So also a dumb historical take.
Everyone always has desired a lack of responsibility, like literally always. If some people can achieve that, good for them!
