1) I suspect you have no way of substantiating this hunch 2) an increase in the occurrence of outlier weather events is a likely result of even small increases in global temperature, so there is a very literal interpretation via which this is true

the fact that an ingroup member can be cordycepted into thinking that it's okay to claim the world ends in 12 years is honestly really horrifying to me

my point is not "she is technically literally incorrect". my point is "there is a vast gap between what she's saying and the truth"
