Week 3: Army on street, fasces and crosses are added to the US flag, after Trump gets inarguated.

Week 6: RFK Jr bans all vaccines and rejects conventional agricultural science. Protestors immediately get shot down.

Week 52: The US famine is starting thanks to 95% of US agricultural products become unfit for human consumption after RFK's decisions, all while a pandemic of SuperAIDS is also killing the population.

You forgot to add "the haunting echoes of tankies proclaiming democrats did this rolls through the rubble"

Yep, Joe Biden has been sooooo great.

Looks like the difficulty modes of Cyberpunk 2077.

Amazing! This looks like it should actually be in the game!

Didn't 2020 pop off with one of the worst Australian bushfires still ongoing, and then one of the worst wildfires in California/Oregon began? And then, you know... that little pandemic thing? How's the bird-flu thing been so far this year? Just wondering

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Some guy in California fed raw bird flu milk to his cats and killed 2 blinded a third, iirc.

So...on the way.

Currently cows are the main carrier of interest for one of the two strains of bird flu that are a concern in the US. The viral particles are being detected in their milk. Hence bird flu milk.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

why dont they call it the cow flu then

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Because you can't just use up the easy to remember names like that. We've had bird flu, SARS, MERS, swine flu, COVID... We might need cow flu to name a different coronavirus in a few years

If you stay about 20' from a cow, the milker can't shoot milk in your face. The physics behind it are pretty clear, yes cow flu milk is airborne but with a splash mask and 20' distance, we'll have it all under control.

I think with the "Sierra Leone declares emergency over mpox outbreak" headline from today, we might tip in to a new record breaking year wikiwiki !

Well good thing nothing bad is scheduled to happen week 3!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

Oh I'm sure something is going down in week 6

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

But week 4 will start with a bang.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 4 months ago (4 children)

Warning, Week 4 is when the black hole opens up.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I'm waiting for the asteroid. I'm sure there's one with our name on it.

Gamma Ray Burst 2025

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago

After that, things start really going downhill

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I've been praying for the black hole sun to come and wash away the rain for a few years now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Call my name through the cream then.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Don't tempt me with a good time.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Oh, crap. We are only 2 weeks into the year, aren't we?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Also only halfway through this decade. And I can't see any reason to believe the 30s will get any better.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Traditionally the 30s are when shit starts to get real

The 20s are just for the I'll gotten gains to be erased due to financial collapse

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

Judging by history, I don't think the cycle is 100 years but more like 85 - 90 years.

Which would put us in the economic bad times right now, leading into a time of military conflict.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

We're in week 3, staying on high alert, anything can happen

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Let see, what's on the calendar....

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Its going to be a fucky one!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 months ago (1 children)

This is hilarious. AI doesn't have the latest news, it's convinced we're joking and reality can't be this bad...

Nice Lenin quote

But the first thing was nothing and hardly worth talking about

When Khrushchev took power he had many of the documents from the Stalin and Lenin eras burned. Early Soviet history is essentially non existent and impossible to prove with what little is left. Most official documentation is destroyed. Lenin may have just liked using that quote when he read it elsewhere. We can have truly know.

Week three will be trump watery shitting over a bible during inauguration with kid rock singing while the cult members literally claw each other's skin off trying to get a finger on the bible to taste.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Both are great pics to represent the state of the US political system right now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Well after the election I did say I'd watch it all go down in flames...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

All the people who see arbitrary signs in everything will see nothing at these things happening within weeks of 2nd trump presidency starting (and the last American presidency under some form of democracy)
