    Always when I watch doomsday movies, I wonder, wtf the people were even doing right up until the event. Because we always come into the movie, right at the doomsday event, none of the build up of warning signs are shown.

    And now I know. We doomscroll on our phones because we’ve been taken over by a handful of super evil villains, whom have accelerated climate change, in their self seving mania, and have, essentially, enslaved all the people. This tiny handful of evil villains, have kept pumping movies at us where we don’t survive or, if we do we need someone with super powers to do it, no mere mortal can have any effect, why try!

    They put cages around us with cost of living and then cages in our minds, believing we don’t have power to overthrow this tiny little band of vile evil self proclaimed overlords. I bet they even wear capes in their bedrooms. They know they’re evil, they know what they’re doing, they really just don’t care past the end of their own nose.

    It’s not just one article that elicits massive severe concern, lately. And it just got me thinking. Sorry for the brain dump.

      By the time it hits the beaches it is decomposing, and while it’s in the sea it’s a useful habitat for a lot of marine life.

        The authors seemed to think it was having negative effects near shore too. But I suppose it might be worth researching.

        That said even if it’s true there seems to be no shortage so harvesting it shortly before it washes up seems harmless enough.

        Quite possibly. But it might be full of salt which would need to be removed first.

        I think the article mentioned some of it was being composted so yeah I guess it works. But I was wondering what the highest value use would be so maybe it could be harvested from the water before it fouls up the beaches.
