From climate disaster to outbreak to climate disaster to outbreak. This is all so exhausting. When will we finally say no more and build a lasting mass movement to overturn the evil systems that are causing all this destruction?

These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer.

These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP.

A street is orange from flames and you can see the high winds in the palm trees. Sparks fly down the street A fire truck is engulfed in parks and flames are seen on the hill. The entire photo is red and orange from the fire A fireman with a hose runs across the front of a house in flames in the background The inside of a house is a ball of flames. The only visible thing inside is a burning Christmas tree

Tweet from Jason Hickel on Jan 6 2022 saying: "The climate crisis reveals that our civilization has never really been organized around science, contrary to the usual Enlightened narrative. It is organized around capital. Science is embraced when it serves the interests of capital, and is often ignored when it does not."

It’s 2028. A quarter of the Pentagon budget goes into Marvel movies now and there are more than ever. You go on a date to see Dr. Army Man XII: War Forever by Raytheon. You kiss your date and contract Covid-19 for the eleventh time. Only one mass shooting interrupts the film.

It’s 2025. You walk outside to meet your Uber—hands behind your head, you get on your knees as a drone yells commands and X-rays you. 7 cops pat you down. You’re good to go. You get in and the car is immediately hit by a Cybertruck. You survive due to acute microplastic toxicity.
