This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.

Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.

Six months ago staunch allies like Canada and Australia would have loved to help, although they couldn’t replace China overnight. But the same tariffs that led to China’s new licenses for critical minerals are hitting the former allies Trump is treating like enemies.

A man came up to him crying. Big guy crying. He had never seen someone shoot both their own feet. But he did it, bone spurs and all.

He said to him ''Sir'' they always call him 'sir' he's so respected. They said ''Sir, thank GOD, and JESUS, you are president'' and he wheeled himself out with only one shot foot. They know I'm better than that!
