Event Update For 2015-05-19





The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.



A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

Quote: "A dead whale was found on a beach south of San Francisco on Tuesday, the same day two other dead whales that washed up weeks apart were being buried nearby after neighbors complained of their rotting smell. The cetacean appears to be an adult gray whale, about 40 feet long, California Academy of Sciences spokeswoman Haley Bowling said."

Quote: "A 40-foot dead whale has been found along the Northern California coast, bringing to four the number that have been discovered in the past month."

Note: Damn, they're starting to wash ashore dead faster than we can bury them!

  1. Looks like our favorite (weird lookin') antelope population is being decimated:

    Endangered saiga antelope death toll nears 20,000 in Kazakhstan

    [man, there's some heavy stuff happenin' in Kazakhstan]

    The death toll in a sudden die-off of critically endangered saiga antelope is nearing 20,000, according to authorities in northern Kazakhstan who are still unsure of the cause.

    Its numbers, once in the millions, were severely depleted after the Soviet breakup by hunters and poachers eager to bag the odd-looking steppe dweller for trophy, meat, or the sale of its horns. [of course man has his dirty hands in it]

    Officials say the carcasses bear no wounds or other signs of trauma.

  2. I noticed that there's a whole lotta slumpin' goin' on!

    I'm developing a fear of bridges (gephyrophobia) due to this and many other similar reports of corrosion of the metal and concrete and the failure to maintain these spans.

    [This motherfucker SHOULD be SHOT or run over by a rhino]

    Texas hunter shoots endangered Namibian rhino for $350,000

    Windhoek (AFP) - A US hunter who paid $350,000 to kill a black rhinoceros in Namibia successfully shot the animal on Monday, saying that his actions would help protect the critically-endangered species.

    [Yeah, right ya fuckin' shit-head - how 'bout we kill YOU now? That would raise even more awareness - that rich assholes can't be makin' exceptions for themselves while engaging in the same environmentally unsustainable practices that put animals on the endangered list in the first place!]

  4. Man, there's a phobia for everything! Can't blame you for being wary of bridges and overpasses though. I wonder what happened to that plan to spend a trillion bucks on infrastructure. Sounds good to me. Charge it to the future! What future, you ask? Exactly!

  5. i don't know why the "brilliant" economists can't think like that - just charge the whole thing to the future - like they do with the Monopoly money we're playing with now.
    Debt, what debt? We'll just print another trillion dollars. Same game.

    [Did you ever get that feeling, like in the Star Wars movie when the "good guys" were stuck in that giant garbage crusher? It just feels like the walls are closing in with all these dire circumstances - the die-offs, combined with sea level rise, methane release, all of it - they just keep creeping closer, tightening the noose . . .or like my sinkhole analogy, where the ground i'm standing on is fine, until one day it isn't.]
