Grumpy old doomer. Constantly surprised. Anti-natalist, antitheist, anarchist, annoyed.

Thwaites has been romantically described (by me) as the buttplug of Antarctic ice. Give it a few weeks and it's history. And after it, a deluge.

The desperate bastards are at it again. They are climbing into little boats, with no possessions, looking for refuge across the wine dark sea. On our beaches, we have armed newspapers and politicians, screaming at them to go back to their holiday on the burning island.

Saddened to hear that Thwaites, the great icy buttplug down south is having a bad day and nobody cares. Behind it a deluge, a prolapse of sheets, a surge of excited ice. All coming soon to your cities and your beaches.

Among the flora and fauna in a burning world the murder apes could not see that they knew fuck all. Some danced, jabbering and festive in the mud, while others crawled in the fiery embers of libraries, reading between the flames. Dead phones prayed to the sky. No messages came.

Sure, weather weirding will freak us out and kill plenty and methane decantation will degrade the atmosphere and water wars will bring out the big guns but really it'll be good old reliable famine that'll kick our asses. Don't even think of growing food unless you have an army.

If doomers annoy you, you're a denier. If you know all the science and are not a doomer, you're a denier. If you believe humanity will rise against doom, you're a denier. If you grifted for hopium and in a wild wind, decide to grift for doom, you're a denier, a liar and a cheat.

Doomers only have to be right once. The hopium brigades have to be right every day. And every day, they are losing ground and material to the Doomer assault.

I am both appalled and delighted at the exponential growth of Doom. I did like it when a smart few stood against the slings and arrows of the moronic many but I think maybe I like it better when the battalions of doom assemble, fearless and indomitable, and roar against the fools

The Doom Revolution is unique in that it promises nothing, offers nothing and will deliver nothing. But it stands on integrity and an unpopular and ferocious truth telling. And that is something, not much, but something. Before the nothing.

You are a peaceful protester sitting in the road when a driver drags you by the hair to the pavement and beats you viciously. A week later you are out of hospital and walking in the rain when a flash flood arrives and your attacker is clinging to the roof of his car. Do you help?

Were there even the flimsiest evidence that humanity might reverse its headlong rush to extinction, then I too might castigate the doomers. But waffle and hopium and fatuous appeals to idiots seem not to be working. Maybe by COP 456? Maybe by bringing science into more disrepute?

In an evolutionary blink we went from wondering where the sun went at night to sending a rocket sunwards. We found out all kinds of shite but never developed a grand unified theory for how we might live companionably on a speck and share it with the others. And now it's too late.

I have noticed a growing tendency for doomers to be a bit, I dunno, a bit negative. C'mon people, we're better than that. I'm only here for the japes and quips and flanter. Let's be happy doomers, full of the joys and splendour of the world. Tell us lies, lots of comforting lies

Nothing will be done because nothing can be done. Plant more trees? So we can choke our cities as they burn? Just stop oil? So the clean skies more easily admit the murdering sun? Return to the stone age? And find the stones all ground for concrete? We are animals without habitat

You may find yourself a doomer of the spectrum, from extreme to soft, or a doomer of the category, eco-doomer, political doomer, psychological doomer, emotional doomer or doomer of the second law. Know you will be welcome in the doom room. Our doors are locked. There are no exits

With power, food and water disrupted, the radio announces rationing, martial law and curfews. The heat and storms are unrelenting. The dead lie unburied and the zoos and sanctuaries are gutted. Feral armies murder those with larders. For a glorious few months we are ourselves.

They built an earth sized prison with vicious guards and rules
And cells for all the dreamers, and cells for all the fools.
They hoarded all the lovely stuff but as far as we could tell

Extinction is a just reward for those who can see it, and a fitting punishment for those who can't.

Those of us who take a more integrated and holistic view of extinction have always looked beyond the world of graphs and recorded measurements, into the dark heart of the angry ape. And in that mirror we see only the spineless victim or the psychotic delinquent.

We are doomed, not by the malignancy of the few, but by the complacency of the many. Doomed by those who believe their morality has legal status. Doomed by those who refuse to see a world outside their primate entitlement. Doomed by our opposable thumbs, our linguistic dexterity.

The doomer narrative represents a fusion of the best of contemporary science, psychology and philosophy. That it is not more commonly accepted can be put down to the fact that most people are clueless fucking morons. This is OK, as it lies at the heart of doomerism.

It will be the ferocity of the final assault that will dismember our psychological comforts. We will run from country to country, town to town and room to room but the storms will find us and the heat will defuse the bombs of our entitlement. We will envy those in the abattoir.

To paraphrase Upton Sinclair; It is difficult for a person to understand Doom when their status and salary depend upon them not understanding it. Such people kick doomers while accepting from the real villains their book deals, their TV appearances, their quango jobs and flights.

If anything, doomers are incentivising activism, not preventing it. We love to see the young march to war and have even prepared some songs for them. I don't know how far it is to Tipperary but according to Ian who has a lovely castrato voice (chainsaw accident!), 'tis a long way

They all lie. The oil people lie about a future of engineered excellence. The vote people lie about our collective common sense. The protest people lie about the mythical land beyond oil. Because the doomers are not selling you a future they can be disregarded by the liars.

Doomers would be quite happy if their message was used to prevent climate activism. It would mean parents telling their children they have no future and perhaps apologizing for having them. But sadly, people won't do this. They lie. About reality and about doom.
