up to 72.5 here now

there's nothing better than no wind during allergy season! no allergies at all for me today!

This might be one of those years

But we have air conditioning to cool down lol. Nothing better than the rush of hitting triple digits outside though.

Your hottest day so far this year, Rob?

Such an interesting dichotomy You - 81 Me- 71 JM - 61 (of course he's not in Long Beach right now but that's what he said the temperature is there right now.)

But at least not Long Beach which is 10 degrees colder than we are. Living on a barrier island must be a nightmare lol. Sucks during the cold season and sucks during the warm season.

wow you guys are much warmer, it's only gotten up to 71 here

they need to stop or greatly limit the use of fertilizers and pesticides. Pesticides are making their way into our water systems and fertilizers are going into the waterways and causing toxic algae blooms.

The Soviet Union was horrible but they weren't even remotely close to socialism. China is also pretty bad but not anywhere close to the system I envision. The Nordic nations are at the top of every benchmark, including life expectancy. Those are the best, and they don't use corrupt crony capitalism like this cesspool of a nation does. A mixed economy is the best system. The US is very mediocre in every way.

really? wow it's 70 here just a few miles north.

extreme capitalism becomes oligarchy (as we are seeing now). every system becomes corrupt eventually and needs to be cleaned out and a reboot becomes necessary. The main problem with a for profit system is it does not address the harms that corporations do to the environment or to society as a whole. Benefit capitalism addresses that by making companies accountable not just to shareholders but to the environment and to society as a whole. The Nordic nations do that well and have a longer life expectancy and far better health and environment because of it.

Marl Karx haha I like Mark Larx better

the population growing like that isn't a good thing though, it causes a bunch of other issues. But it's more of a developing world problem rather than us since we've managed to balance out our population.

you're a vampire dude why do you wear a hoodie? do you have some sort of allergy to sunshine?
