      My thoughts exactly. This isn’t some quirky record break… They’ll be taking this same photo over and over with more worried expressions soon.

      Meh, I know the world is doomed, might as well smile and make light of it.

        Suggestion: Not smile like idiots, not pose for pictures in front of a representation of a tangible threat to humanity that’s actively killing people. Maybe if press does show up, be informed experts as stewards of that land and tell people it’s not a fun joke and they’re at the center of a growing problem with a global impact.

        You know, basic decent human stuff…

        P.S. Go right on back to Reddit if you want to make snarky, hollow comments ending in lmao, tool.

          Pretty ironic you calling someone else snarky.

          Your first comment was pretty snarky and hollow too, but I’m not gatekeeping an entire website over it.

          lol

    Something about them standing in front of that sign gives me a funny feeling.

      Yeah I don’t think smiling and showing happiness about that is a good thing.

    All the news coverage on this and not a tiny bit of news about action upon climate change. Humans will die because of their own idiocy
