Climate Crisis: Are we doing enough?

From one ginger to another if I recall?

Poor Shep is under attack by an entirely imaginary Woke Ginger Battalion.

Oh don't start speculative musings on Shep's fantasies Claude..

Literal 'can of worms' comes to mind ☹️

Funnily enough I was only wondering the other day what happened to Dimmock..
Is she still out there somewhere on the medias, espousing the indisputable joys and benefits of ponds??

Edit- ah turns out presenting something called 'Gardem Rescue'..Hope she's not overseeing the eviction of too many slow worms 🤔

Indeed she is. Like many of us, rather past her "best before" date now, but, still earning a crust.

There does seem to be a picture of a pussy with ginger bits a few posts back.

Don't fuel his fantasies any further Claude..

It'll be like one of those sweaty teenaged action comics featuring pneumatic warrioresses with airbrushed on leather bikinis.. 🙄

Sad that it takes a horrendous war to get any sign of real action.
Though in the UK we are hard pushed to break wind.

The bees were even out foraging here yesterday, but theres not much in flower to reward their efforts.

Worrying times 😟

I think it's probably more of a trauma response dating back to the Mick Hucknall incident.

You have evidence that her gardening skills have declined?

That's not usually my experience around more mature horticulturalists.

I must have missed that one...

Poor thing 😥

Should we be setting up a crowdfunder for trauma counselling??

Doesn't that cover just about all of us?

I think 'one' of your problems Shep is your inability to 'recall' very much at all.

Which would in turn, of course lead to difficulties around retaining more than one thought, or fact, at a time in your head.


Which then in itself would lead to difficulties around processing more complex ideas and situations - those which require some degree of lateral thinking, and or imagination .

So I guess we could in turn be generous and say that what often comes across to us as a deficiency of character - may in fact just be limited cognition on your part, ergo it's not really your fault*


You can't be blamed for spouting what comes across to the casual observer as utterly mindless bellendery - because in fact your brain doesn't have the capacity for it to be otherwise.

*OTOH there may be other causes.. 🙄

I think I've lost track here. Did Shep have a thing for Mick Hucknall? Did he have nice Dimmocks?

If that's what keeps you coming back...

Highly likely.

And that's totally between him and Shep.

It's all too easy to get bogged down in despair at all this.

But Brazil having ousted the rainforest destroying populist Bolsanaro is at least one ray of hope on an otherwise dark horizon ..

Don't underestimate us Gingers...
There is only one thing that can beat us...

Bolsa got plenty of attention thankfully. As did Trump, and hopefully Boris Johnson.

Who said anything about gardening skills? Hadn't realised that was ever her speciality
