That's not a goddamn burqa. Fuck's sake.

that's an abaya with niqab! why does no one know the difference!

get over yourself. Gays are the most hypocrite people I've ever met. I support gay rights so why can't you open your mind and try to understand what this young lady was trying to accomplish? The Jibab represents a culture and ideology that suppresses and persecutes gays. To me these outfits are no different than a person who wears a Nazi costume. They both represent hate and repression.

on the same trip i saw this. it was kinda hard to gauge but it looked like most of the corn crop in KS and MO was pretty much toast.

basically, all i'm seeing is the usa and capitalism will completely and utterly consume itself, the USSR will be restored to it's former glory and karl marx will be proven right. looks like a pretty good future to me

the crops in serbia were all fucked this summer, i'm not sure there's enough for domestic needs let alone export. wildfires too for the first as long as anyone can remember. we're gonna have to become nomads again.

the scale is the palmer drought severity index relative to the 1950-1979 mean. so red/purple/white is much dryer than 1950-1979 and blue is much wetter. i dont have a map from this year for that dataset but the paper (2010) included a 2000-2009 map generated from the same models. because of the way the data's standardised i can't easily compare measurements from this year to model predictions to see "where we are" so to speak but its not a bad idea to figure out what the absolute values are that the model scale refers to for that purpose, i'll give that a shot at some point



pretty much the driest we got in NA from 2000-2009 is -4, by 2040 the models are saying we're seeing areas of -20 lol

in terms of this year this'll give you an idea of how bad it was and how little we can afford to have that be a permanent condition

yeah unfortunately "it stops raining" is sth that has happened pretty regularly haha. dryland farming is useful for certain applications but as a staple-crop production method its terrible as you're pretty much fucked if you dont get your median rainfall for that year

sure you want to, but you dont need to. you'd prolly give up the first time you rip someone's intestines out with your teeth and eat them immediately out of hunger. me, i live to make a thin gruel out of dry earth and my enemies' foreskins

But how accurate is the model? An anecdote the researchers outline in the report offers us an idea.
