Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.


Oh, great: NASA says an asteroid is headed our way right before Election Day


(CNN)Well, 2020 keeps getting better all the time.
Amid a pandemic, civil unrest and a divisive US election season, we now have an asteroid zooming toward us.
On the day before the presidential vote, no less.

Yep. The celestial object known as 2018VP1 is projected to come close to Earth on November 2, according to the Center for Near Earth Objects Studies at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
Its diameter is 0.002 km, or about 6.5 feet, according to NASA's data. It was first identified at Palomar Observatory in California in 2018.
NASA says there are three potential impacts, but "based on 21 observations spanning 12.968 days," the agency has determined the asteroid probably -- phew! -- won't have a deep impact, let alone bring Armageddon.

The chance of it hitting us is just 0.41%, data show.
CNN has reached out NASA for any additional or updated information but has not heard back.

Earth often experiences close flybys of astronomical objects. One day one will strike us, as they've done many times in the past, and then very little will matter to anyone except trying to stay alive. Covid mask-wearing will make post-apocalyptic living even more fun. And here in So. Fla. we're dodging TWO hurricanes this weekend. That's THREE near-miss hurricanes in three weeks ... Yikes!!

So what you're saying is there's still a chance that Biden doesn't get embarrassed.

That's good to know. Elder abuse is not a laughing matter.

Yep ... trolling me from thread to thread with pointless idiocies.


GOOD.

That means I've gotten under your skin. You can waste time and energy on that JACKAREN, and in the meantime, show us all what you're really made of, WISHI.

I apologize to everyone for starting a thread to keep up with facts about SARS-COV-2, and driving JACKAREN/WISHI over the edge with too much reality.

I post on all the threads, dumbass.

Want me to dig up the post where you, yourself, told Nilbog that I wasn't stalking her when she claimed the exact same thing you're claiming now?

Go fuck yourself, Karen.



And take a good fucking long hard look in the mirror and realize how badly COVID has infected you without infecting you.



I've been dealing with your bullshit now since April, and I'm getting pretty bored with it by the end of August.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Eh - next time I'll put WISHI in quotes. I'm just indicating how similar JACKAREN is to you ... yanno, with that big grotch against huge chunks of the human race and the desire to see hundreds of millions, if not billions, of the wrong sort of people dead - or even the desire to personally kill them.

You'll have to find quotes of that, asshole.

And just so there is no confusion, YOU are the asshole, Kiki.

Why don't you stop being an asshole, Kiki?
