bro you're gonna die fr

The American upper class has spent so long being shielded from the fallout of its actions that it believes itself invincible.

That's not a class issue nearly so much as it is an 83-year-olds be stubborn problem

What a perfect microcosm story for why we're completely screwed by climate collapse. People would complain about how heavy handed the symbolism is if this was in a movie

I know you're just repeating a common joke, but people would absolutely not complain, in fact they would applaud it as subtle and complex and needing 200 IQ to understand. See all the discourse around "Don't Look Up" which must have been the most heavy handed movie I've seen in a decade, and people praised it to high heavens foe being a "clever metaphor" etc
- I feel like it's only possible to come across as heavy handed if the satire is objectively less subtle than reality. In a world where climate science has shown us our future for decades now and people continue to bury their head in the sand, it's really just documentary about what would genuinely happen if a large scale disaster were to occur. I wouldn't say it's a particularly clever metaphor, but I think you can't satirize climate change denial hard enough at this point.

comrade landslide take my energy

If it collapses and he survives, it'll be blamed on communist earthbenders. No introspection whatsoever. The commies sabotaged his perfectly safe mansion

Damn if I was 82 and had a giant beachside mansion I would stay in it too. Great way to go out, ride that sucker into hell.

Probably same. I'd be too old to move to another house. Fuck that.

What's the salvage rules on stuff that falls in the ocean?

Critical support for comrade coastal erosion

Inshallah, tongzhi Gaming... though others' towns, like yours, aren't exactly invincible to such courses of nature
But hey, another richman down...

Oh no. Anyway

hopefully somebody livestreams it falling into the sea

Wealthy old man biding his time while a landslide undercuts his support. Very uncommitted to doing anything about it. Where have I seen this before?

We should convince all capitalists to live on easily collapsible cliffs

I've got a sneaking suspicion that they have somehow jacked up their insurance policy on the house and everything in it (or that they claim is in it) and are just going to use this as an excuse to rake it in on a property that's been doomed for some time now.

imagine paying 16 million for a compound falling down a cliff side, lol, lmao

Motherfuckers like this are ruining coasts across the country. Well, really its land/real estate developers but its a huge issue in the Great Lakes area too where basically every inch of land near a coastline is snapped up and clear cut for mcmansion building, which destroys the trees and vegetation that held these cliffs together.

Seen dozens of houses slide down cliffs and i would cheer if not for the environmental destruction they caused in the first place

When I am in charge all bodies of water will be surrounded by an appropriate amount of park space before anyone can build anything that isn't a shipping port or yknow, stuff to do with boats. You shouldn't be able to effectively privatize a lake or because now the only way to access it is by trespassing.

Isn’t there a parable about a house built on sand? I wonder if that would be relevant.

is it one of the 3 little pigs?

the mcmansion gets swallowed by the sea and takes the ghoul with him

Here's hoping

California

Florida

Otherwise being really good states that are unfortunately wasted on the wealthy.

California has incredible climate and geography, but Florida? It's a flat swamp with hellacious heat and humidity.
- But Everglades and Manatees, and you could make a case Miami is Caribbean-adjacent.
Bruh, your username, holy shit LMFAO!!

I take comfort in the fact that quite many of these holders of capital seem to be pretty simple.

Wait. Stop. Don't.

Damn, thinking of camping out near the beach below the house so I can loot the wreck after it falls

i wanna watch it'd be funny

Tune-in next week to find out!

He's 82. No one can touch him

His family should have taken power of attorney from him and placed him in a safe environment by now but I guess his family doesn't actually care about his well being that much.
