It really is just so exhausting at times, reading articles from miserable climate cultists being miserable
Loving this early spring weather? YOU SHOULDN'T BE.

From the unhinged doomsday cultist piece. It starts out with some weird stuff about social engineering, particularly in socialist societies, like the old USSR, moving to
With that in mind, let’s turn to this weekend’s unusually warm weather. How did Seattle feel about it?
St. Patrick’s Day usually brings a soul-crushing 42-degree rain.
Not this year. This weather is perfection!

As much as I admire Seattle Weather Blog, the last line in their March 17 tweet is alarming, if not horrifying, and certainly bad social engineering. To make matters worse, the weekend’s feel-good directive was universally expressed by the local news and social media. Even today, March 18, which is warm and breezy, KIRO 7 encouraged its audience to just “enjoy the sunshine.” But how on earth is this possible when the brightness of the sun and the warmth of the air are freaks of nature? It should be cool and dark during this time of the year. Instead, we are breaking records all over the place.
Cultists just can’t enjoy anything. There will be nice, warm days during Holocene warm periods (some not so nice: more died of heatstroke during the Battle of Monmouth than actual wounds, despite being deep in the Little Ice Ace). There will be ugly, cold days during a Holocene warm period. Monday and Tuesday weren’t exactly warm, and there was lots of snow. It will be a little nicer, at least here, on Wednesday. And here we go
We should be horrified by this weather, not enjoying it, not in the least bit. But what you found all around Greenlake, or going up and down Lake Washington Boulevard, or basking on Alki Beach, or filling the platforms of Pike Place Market were lots of people enjoying what is in fact a living nightmare. But this serious disconnection between reality (anthropogenic global warming and its year-by-year destruction of the world, brief as it was, we only know) is a failure of empowering social engineering. We only know how to enjoy sunny days, no matter what caused them. And unless social engineering intervenes (which is not likely at this point), we will be biking, hiking, and wearing tight shorts or no shirts when “perfect” arrives early in 2025. It’s only going to get worse. This is just fact.
I think I need to head to one of my favorite fun sites, like Izismile, now. This is exhausting.
