Pope Blesses Same Sex Marriage. Says Climate Change is Caused by People Driving Cars, Trucks, Vans and Flying in Jet Airplanes. and Mexico decriminalizes abortion...

Overlooked News: During the Mad Panic About Republicans "Burning Down The House" It's Possible that These Stories were Missed...

Apparently, The Catholic Church is Embracing Sanity... WONDERFUL! Why NOT Bless Gay Marriage? It's Harmless and Putting a Lot of Effort into HATE seems to be Failing... 

Why NOT Try to Wake Up "The Jet Set" - The Last Holiday Weekend Had the Largest Number of People Flying on Jets in History... and NONE of them Realized that Their Behavior was Causing Air Pollution and Climate Change... Remember: It's all that Driving That Burns Gasoline... It's not the Oil Companies Fault... they are Just Giving the People What they want... Decades ago I ALSO Drove all over the Place Just for Fun... I didn't have a Clue... Imagine Driving from Washington DC to Key West To Niagara Falls... Just for fun! I Did That! Of Course, I Woke Up but... It's almost Impossible to Contact Members of The Jet Set and Get Their Attention...

In America It's Almost Impossible to Survive Without Driving to the Grocery Store... and The Vast Majority of People Drive to Work... SO... Climate Change is Coming and there Is VERY Little Hope for the Future... On the Rare Occasions that I Ride in a LYFT Car, the Streets of Sacramento are PACKED with Cars... 

I ALSO have Flown in a Jet Airplane. It's been Over 20 Years but... WE HAD FUN! My Father, New Wife and I Flew to Delaware for a Meet the Inlaws Visit...

and One subject that is almost Totally Ignored about the Causes of Climate Change... Eating Meat... Cows and Pigs Fart Methane, a Greenhouse Gas... and NO ONE is reducing the amount of Meat We Eat... I won't do that either... I love Hamburgers and Bacon and IF I Destroy the Environment for Young People... Huh... Pass the Ketchup... 

The really wonderful thing about Mexico decriminalizing Abortion is... Hopefully it will cause FEWER MEXICANS... They Have been Breeding Like Crazy and Cannot feed their children... That is the Main reason they want to Immigrate to the USA... because we Have been Behaving Sane about Birth Control... and the Quality of Life is Much Better Here...

Pope Francis signals openness to blessings for same-sex couples... 


Pope Francis lambasts climate change skeptics and ‘irresponsible’ Western lifestyles...

Mexico decriminalizes abortion, extending Latin American trend of widening access...

Climate Change Statement: 
“Despite all attempts to deny, conceal, gloss over or relativize the issue, the signs of climate change are here and increasingly evident. No one can ignore the fact that in recent years we have witnessed extreme weather phenomena, frequent periods of unusual heat, drought and other cries of protest,” he wrote.
Climate change will likely only get worse and ignoring it will heighten “the probability of extreme phenomena that are increasingly frequent and intense,” he wrote.

The pope paid particular attention to the disproportionate responsibility of rich countries for climate change.

“If we consider that emissions per individual in the United States are about two times greater than those of individuals living in China, and about seven times greater than the average of the poorest countries, we can state that a broad change in the irresponsible lifestyle connected with the Western model would have a significant long-term impact,” he wrote.

KEEP ABORTION LEGAL... I remember that a friend of mine drove his girlfriend to Tijuana to get an abortion. Was that "Hospital" the highest quality? It is likely that Actual Doctors in the USA give better Health Care than TJ's Finest. In Olden Days abortions were often performed by random lawbreakers... Not a great system... This is important because BOTCHED abortions can leave the woman sterile. Maybe she doesn't want a baby at age 15 but at age 22 she does.. A Botched abortion removes that option. NO Choice.

Organized by SF Interfaith Council, SF Night Ministry, Faithful Fools, SF Coalition on Homelessness, and ABD/Skywatchers, this memorial vigil is held every year on or near the Winter Solstice to honor the memories of our neighbors and friends who have died on the streets of San Francisco that year. We gather at Civic Center Plaza across from City Hall, have a singing processional, and return for a vigil in the plaza. In silence, in prayer, in song we remember them, honor them, mourn our loss, reach out to each other for comfort and hope, and nourish our solidarity in working for change.

In preparation for the memorial we create fabric banners that hold the name of each loved one lost that year. To volunteer to be part of that creative process—whether you're great with a sewing machine or scissors and glue—please contact Deirdre...

tRUMP's Coronavirus is Helping With the Problem of Overpopulation! Now The Vast Majority of Deaths are in People That DID NOT GET THE VACCINE... SEE? Behaving Stupid Can Be Fatal!

and there were a Half a Million Americans That Died from Drug Overdoses... and Really, If you are so Stupid as to Die from a Drug Overdose... We Are All Better Off That You've Gone... Thanks!

Let's Make Birth Control and Abortion Free and Legal Worldwide... The Troubles of OVERPOPULATION are More than Just Too Many People Living in the Bay Area... It's Too Many People EVERYWHERE! Ever notice that there are Thousands of People walking from Central America to Texas looking for a Better Life? That because they Can't FEED THEIR CHILDREN in Central America or Mexico... The Catholic Church is Opposed to Birth Control and so there are Millions of Starving Children... I've Actually Traveled to Mexico and The Starving Children Really Upset Me... SO... I Never Traveled there Again... 

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~

Not Surprisingly My Catholic Friend Disagrees...  

MD Said: There is no problem with over population. In fact the opposite is true. Europe has a declining birth rate except for Muslims. The US also almost has a declining birth rate except for Hispanics. In fact the problem is the replacement rate is not sufficient to support the social welfare nets for Seniors. Overpopulation is a myth.

and I Replied:
So You Say... In Fact, Traffic Jams are Directly Caused by Overpopulation... So are High Rent and High Food Prices... Too Many People Competing for Limited Resources... and Climate Change is Caused By Too Many People Polluting the Air... Back when we had a Billion People, You Could Heat your House with Coal, Wood or Cow Dung... NOW, That Behavior Causes Global Warming... Whatever... YOUR Children and Grandchildren Can Share the Misery... Free Advice! Move to the Coast of Oregon... Cool, Rainy and No Problems of The City. 

and Don't Forget The Mormons... They are Reproducing TOO... Senator Mike Lee's Rebuttal of Green New Deal... the “real solution to climate change” is to have more children... He Displays a Painting Of Ronald Reagan Riding a Dinosaur while Firing a Machine Gun... His Hope is that Children are Smarter Than their Parents and They will Figure out a solution... Really! https://gvan42.blogspot.com/2019/04/senator-mike-lees-rebuttal-of-green-new.html

MD Said: that’s called capitalism. The whole point of capitalism is to create demand has nothing to do with overpopulation. High rent and high prices are again caused by demand and inflation, and they have nothing to do with overpopulation. We have enough food to feed the world many times over, but it’s because of poverty and corruption in political governments and lack of education not overpopulation.

Companies create demand by limiting their products thus increasing their prices for their products. Harley Davidson is famous for this. We do not have limited resources nor do we have overpopulation.

Climate change has nothing to do with overpopulation.


I Replied: A small number of People Polluting the Air is Not Significant. a Large Number of People Polluting the Air is a Problem... Biology/Thomas Malthus. Just Like The Quantity of a Herd of Deer will be Limited by Starvation in the Winter... He published the Principle of Population where he made the observations that the human race would be likely to overproduce if the population size was not kept under control.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Robert_Malthus


and then SE Said: One thing that drives me crazy about the "we need more housing" people is the fact that they never, EVER address the issue of water. Santa Clara Valley is in a severe drought right now, yet we have around 2 million residents currently, and we will have thousands if not millions more residents when all of the neverending high-density apartments are finished and occupied. If the current 2 million residents are being asked to conserve water, where do they plan to get enough additional water for the million or so more people who will eventually move here? This is the point where someone usually comes along and says, "But apartment dwellers don't use nearly as much water as people who live in houses," and "The biggest use of water is a lawn. People living in apartments don't have lawns." Okay, fine. But we're talking THOUSANDS, maybe even MILLIONS of people in addition to the 2 million who are already here. The fact that they don't have a lawn doesn't change the fact that there will be so MANY people using a limited amount of water. Even 2 million additional people taking a daily shower will use a ton more water than whatever is currently being used! And not everyone is conscientious about trying to conserve water by taking shorter showers or turning off the faucet while they brush their teeth or whatever. Some people are wasteful by nature, and some are jerks who feel entitled to use as much water as they want. I knew a guy a few years ago who used to turn on his shower and let it run for TEN MINUTES before getting in. I have no idea why anyone would do such a thing, but in his case, I think he was trying to rile me up because he knew I cared about the water supply and the environment. I never said a word because I don't like confrontation and I don't like to argue, and I didn't want to give him the satisfaction of knowing that his blatant waste of water was upsetting me, so I never once said a word about it. But my point is, there are people like that who feel entitled to waste water. When you're talking about hundreds of thousands, or maybe even millions, of additional residents, it really doesn't matter if they live in a house with a lawn or whether they live in an apartment building. And sure, you can encourage people to take shorter showers or to shut off the faucet while they brush their teeth, but there is no way to monitor millions of apartment dwellers to make sure they actually ARE doing those things. And even if each and every one of them DOES take extra steps to try and conserve water, the sheer number of additional people WILL put a drain on the already-stressed water supply. Why don't the "we need more housing" people ever talk about this? 
We DON'T need more housing. We need fewer people. The only way we're ever going to be able to have a decent quality of life again is if we STOP making it so easy for more and more people to move here.

VK Replied: My dad is one of those "people need more housing" folks but I guess I sort of understand because that's how he earns a living. He got some land development deal in Cupertino where he might be earning some $200k commission from. In all honestly I'm kind of bad about letting the water run while brushing my teeth, mostly because I'm always rinsing my mouth out and don't brush that long. It's terrible and Pat actually is the one who reminds me to shut it off. As far as the shower, I usually have to let it run for a minute or two because it takes a while to heat up, but 10 minutes is kind of ridiculous.

SE Replied: The water in my kitchen takes a long time to run COLD, if you can believe it. I need it to get cold before I can run it through my Brita filter, so sometimes I have to let it run for a minute or 2 before it gets cold. I always feel terrible about that, though, because I know it's a waste of water.

MM Said: We need to invest in better technology in agriculture here in CA—ones that conserve water and use it in a more efficient manner. Look at the pie chart. Most of the water is consumed by agriculture.
And the water use is different for the regions here. Our area really doesn’t use as much water as other regions. But yes there is a drought but are we the only ones that should be encouraged to use less water? How about asking agriculture to invest in more efficient ways of utilizing their part of the pie chart? Government incentives for them to do so?
I drove down HWY 5 a few years ago and noticed that many of the orchards there were abandoned, the owners couldn’t afford their water supply—profit margins dwindled and they had to pack it in. This of course affected our economy as well.
We need better water management, better tech to conserve water in agriculture by making the irrigation process more efficient and less wasteful. Education and technology can help farmers manage their crops better too—cooperating with folks who own cattle to rotate fields and provide time for one section to be pasture and naturally fertilized with manure while others actively grow crops. The State and County Fairs need to provide free seminars paid for by our State government towards these aims.
Anyways, my two cents.
California Water Use Chart

California Water Use Chart - map


MM Said: And it’s a major hill to climb, considering most farmers are quite set in their ways—they don’t like being told what to do with their crops or farms. But they use most of the water and are not considered in this push to conserve water. They are overlooked. So it unfairly falls on the urban areas to take up the slack?! We don’t use as much water as they do!

SE SAID: But it pisses me off about the "we need more housing" crap. We wouldn't have a water shortage if there weren't so many people needing the limited amount of water that we have. This is not the time to encourage more people to move here.

VK SAID: Yeah, I agree. I was actually just saying that the bay area is one of the places I'd never move back to. We moved here because the cost of living was cheaper, but it's gone up a lot and I feel like at this point we could move to SoCal and pay around the same. This isn't my dream place to live, I'd love to be close to the beach and have consistent weather that isn't too cold during the winter. Maybe after we build up some equity in the house and have more income we can make it happen.

 SE SAID:  Yeah, I feel so stuck here in San Jose, but I don't know how I'll ever get out. I'm from this area, and my whole family is here, and I've lived here most of my life, so it's 'home.' And of course, if I move away, first I'd have to save up enough to get myself set up in another city where I don't have any family nearby...but how can I ever save when it's almost impossible to find permanent employment anymore? Contract work means you end up going long stretches of time in between jobs, and that makes it impossible to save money. I get really depressed sometimes when I think about it because I don't really see any way out. It's like being on a merry-go-round or something.

VK SAID:  Yeah, I totally feel that. I'm fortunate that I could keep my current job and work out of the Irvine office if I wanted to, but I don't know if I'll still be at this job at that point in time. I'm hoping to eventually be 100% freelance, but we'll have to see. Pat said he could always do UberEats full time until he found something, he's been having better luck with that vs rideshare. I was just lamenting recently how we wished we could have moved away sooner, but like you said it's really hard if you don't have a job lined up. The only way we were able to move here is because we had somewhere we could stay and Pat was able to transfer his job while I was on unemployment. It was pretty rough for a while. Moving out of state would be even harder, especially if you're buying a house because like my current loan is restricted to CA only and you have to have 2 consecutive years in the same employment industry, or buying a house outright in another state would be dicey for us because we'd both need new jobs. If I was 100% freelance, I'd need at least 2 years worth of that income as well.

VK Said: The water at my dad's house takes FOR-EVER to heat up so it can easily be 10 minutes of letting the water run. I heard it's because he has the water heater turned turned way low and he thinks he might be saving money that way, but in reality he's wasting a lot of water that way and as a homeowner, you do pay more for water/garbage in a house, so it doesn't make sense.

CB Replied:  My MIL puts a pitcher under her faucet to catch the cold water while it’s heating up before she showers/hand washes dishes or whatever and then waters plants with it. You could suggest/try that if you need to let it run for a bit to heat up.

and then I Said: Let's Make Birth Control Free and Legal Worldwide... The Troubles of OVERPOPULATION are More than Just Too Many People Living in the Bay Area... It's Too Many People EVERYWHERE! Ever notice that there are Thousands of People walking from Central America to Texas looking for a better Life? That because they Can't FEED THEIR CHILDREN in Central America or Mexico... The Catholic Church is Opposed to Birth Control and so there are Millions of Starving Children... and... Abortion Should be Free and Legal Worldwide...

Darwin will take care of the Stupid People. The Anti-Mask, Anti-Vaccine Crowds will Get Sick and Die... Making the NEXT Generation Smarter and Healthier... Trust The Plan! Dead Anti-Mask, Anti-Vaccine People Will Have No More Children... That's The Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection...

DDG Said: you have not included the innocent ones that will die from their actions. It is also interesting the ant-maskers that are getting the vaccine. Just another example of selfishness. "I will get a vaccine to protect myself but not wear a mask to protect others". Just another sign of selfishness.

I Responded:  Yes... There are Innocent People That will be Killed by the Insane Behavior of the Anti-Maskers and the Anti-Vaccine people...

GB Said: potentially, all of us. A group of unvaccinated people can provide a breeding ground for a mutated strain that could be immune to the vaccine.

It's Likely That We Will Have Covid-19 and then Covid -20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25... Forever and Ever... Just Like We Have a Different Flu each year... and the Ultimate effect will be CULLING THE HERD... Nature Reduces Population to Fit the Resources Available... and Right NOW, There Are Too Many People... Thomas Malthus is Right... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malthusianism

Wear Masks Practice Social Distancing and Wash Your Hands  It's Not Complicated - Lilly says
Get The Coronavirus Vaccine!

and... Dead Anti-Mask, Anti-Vaccine People Will Have No More Children... That's The theory of evolution by natural selection, first formulated in Darwin's book "On the Origin of Species" in 1859, is the process by which organisms change over time as a result of changes in heritable physical or behavioral traits. Changes that allow an organism to better adapt to its environment will help it survive and have more offspring.

and The Opposite is True... Stupid Behavior Leads to Early Death...

OVERPOPULATION Is THE Major Problem Today. It Causes Traffic Jams, High Food Prices, High Housing Prices, Plagues and Global Warming.

Thankfully, Mother Nature is Inventing New Diseases To Reduce Overpopulation. tRUMP's Coronavirus Is Just The First of Many Plagues to Come...

I Believe the Needs of The Many Outweigh the Needs of the Few or the Stockholders. 

I Question the Validity of the Entire Profession of Medicine. People are Living Longer, Thanks to the "Wonders" of Modern Medicine. A Classic Example of the Needs of the ONE Outweighing the Needs of the Many. Old People are Refusing to Die and We Consume Housing, Food, Air, Drinking Water, Plastic, Computers and Electricity. 

The Polluting Actions of ONE Billion People Did NOT Cause Global Warming. HOWEVER, When that Same Actions are Done by SEVEN Billion People... The Temperature Goes UP!

Recommended Action: Make Birth Control and Abortion FREE and LEGAL All Over the World. Did You Notice that in Catholic Countries Like Mexico, Guatemala and Honduras the QUALITY OF LIFE is so bad that they are Walking North to the USA to Escape Their FAILED CULTURE... Really! I'm Not Making This UP!
