... moreHow long will life survive on planet Earth?
Life on Earth will surely be wiped out eventually. But how long does it have, and what will it take to sterilise the entire planet?

All things must pass. That includes life on Earth, which will surely be wiped out eventually. But how long does it have?
The fossil record tells us that life on Earth has lasted at least 3.5 billion years. In that time it has survived being frozen, clobbered by rocks from space, mass poisoning, and even lethal radiation. Clearly, it's hard to completely sterilise the planet.
But there's no shortage of potential apocalypses. Which of them will finally render the Earth barren?

Volcanic apocalypse
Timeframe: 0-100 million years? Maybe?
Probably the nearest life has come to ultimate destruction was 250 million years ago, during the end-Permian mass extinction. The event obliterated perhaps 85% of all species living on land... less

They did. Now the prez doesn't like to be told NO YOU CAN'T. He finds ways to retaliate being the pompous a** he is. He must be furious and enraged and infuriated and bonkers about his impotence smacking him where it hurts most...in public in front of everyone. Well you don't do that to the infant terror and expect to survive. He plots and plans to make them pay for it. He weaves his web and plots and plans. He oozes with anticipation as their comeuppance day isn't very far away. He lusts after it and is salivating about it. One day soon. We'll see what happens. Everyone says so. He can fix it. He is the only one who can. Trust him. Believe only in him. Whatcha got ta lose? less

My "baby sister" has known me all her life and she will be 75 in December. Everyone else died. Life.
I don't care how much you claim to cya he the litter box every day. The fact remains cat houses always stink to high he'll with a very distinct piss like odor.
I never feared any teacher I ever had. There was one in the long-ago once upon a time whom I despised. She my life a living he** for one semester. But fear? Never. You?

So is there such a thing as an ENGINEER BRAIN? Always looking for the weakness or defect or problem? Can you be a good engineer if your brain isn't wired like that? Any engineers out there?

Listen to his dog whistles and be ready and fully weaponized to heed his call to arms. What better way could there be than to rid the world of all his enemies?

If you ten times it you aren't doubling down. But I digress.His thin-skin is black and blue 24/7 due to his incredibly low self-esteem. His lack of confidence in himself is unbelievable isn't it? He has none at all because if he did he would not be always "hitting back at" anyone who criticizes him. He WOULD BE ABOVE IT.As it is he goes so low wherever he goes his belly is always dirty. He can't let anything go. He brings along with slights from years before and repeats them to help us remember them. They are so important to he never wants to forget them. What a mess. less

WHAT OTHER WAY?What The Supremes did was simply call them out on the LIE that the question was for the purpose of protecting voting rights or some other bullsh** crap. The Supremes aren't as stupid as the sb teleprompter prez sez they iz.What the Supremes said was that the reason they disallowed it and smacked it down and booted it out because it is/was bogus. If they could come up with a substantive valid TRUTHFUL BENEFICIAL reason for the citizenship question then it could be added to the Census. Clearly they can't. Clearly only lies are what they have so once again smarter folks smacked him down. What a clown.Try again. Make a dam* fool of yourself again. Your peeps expect it of you and love you for it. The rest of us expect it of you too. We don't love you. Get over it! DEAL WITH IT. So what's next in your weaponized idea kit? Oh and are ya gonna t... less

How can you ever know how much your subconscious controls you? Is there a "foolproof" way to determine intention at the subconscious level?

He exerts complete control over our attention by intention to deflect diffuse divert. Threaten a war. Threaten to side-step THE SUPREMES. Threaten to ship out thousands of human beings. Threaten to build an ego wall. Threaten to threaten. He always backs down when he gets his way. All he wants is to make fools of us all. Easy to do. Sad to say.How did he get to be so good at being that? Why do folks allow it? Is there some deep-seated need in us to be manipulated like that? T'is a puzzlement.Now we KNOW he can be almost totally ignored very easily. His 4th of July very expensive ego parade spectacular was not covered well at all. A smack down he so richly deserved. Why not treat every rally every speech ever word every deed like that only more so? Ignore him. Don't take the bait. Treat him as he deserves to be treated. An annoying gnat that is unspeakably inept arro... less
