I decided to write Pacific Crest's 'The Broken Column' to honor 'FRIDA' winning a News & Doc Emmy Award instead.
I found this video while researching Rite Aid filed for bankruptcy again, a tale of the Retail Apocalypse, but I found three others I liked better for At Home files for bankruptcy, a tale of the Retail Apocalypse and tariffs.
Discarded video for Doomsday Clock entry
Jan. 26th, 2024 12:07 pmI found a good stopping point for Bill Nye joins the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists as the Doomsday Clock remains at 90 seconds to midnight before I could use this video.
Replaced video for 'Don't Look Up' post
Jan. 23rd, 2022 04:24 pmI replaced the following video with one from WatchMojo in 'Don't Look Up' has an all-star cast in a satire about climate change. I decided a critique of the science was more important that one critic's opinion.
Missed video for Doomsday Clock post
Jan. 22nd, 2022 12:56 pmThis video came out too late for me to include it in Doomsday Clock remains at 100 seconds to midnight for 2022.
Rejected videos for IPCC report post
Aug. 10th, 2021 01:22 pmI rejected the following videos for IPCC report warns 'code red for humanity' in favor of more recent ones with more of a U.S. emphasis.

I didn't use the following video in 'Contagion' vs. COVID-19 updates last year's most commented entries on Throwback Thursday because it didn't really fit the concept of comparing the movie itself with reality, even though its stars made the PSA.
I added the following video to Zombie Apocalypse Index for Day of the (Walking) Dead because the Wochit News video I embedded in it five years ago disappeared last week. Not only did that result in the video disappearing, so did the preview image. Since this is easily the most popular post this year, thanks to the pandemic, I couldn't let that stand.
'Generations' and the pandemic
Mar. 29th, 2020 04:53 pmTwo Facebook statuses:
Fans of Strauss and Howe's "Generations" may remember a reference to "The Crisis of 2020." Well, we're living through it.
In addition to "The Crisis of 2020," I recall something else from "Generations" applicable to today--the crisis would become a whirlwind of a single issue sweeping up all other issues into it. Isn't that how the pandemic seems to unfolding? It seems to have completely absorbed work, politics, and society into it. Even the environment is being viewed through the lens of how people's response to the pandemic is affecting it.

I decided not to use this video for Michigan to mail ballots and $400 million for elections in coronavirus stimulus bill update the election news and views for the ninth year of Crazy Eddie's Motie News, as good as it was in general.
In this week’s Extra, the discussion at the table centered on the state of a 2020 election campaign as COVID-19 spreads. Some states canceled their primaries and candidates adjusted to the measures like social distancing. The panel discussed how the virus could reshape how voters view issues at the heart of the campaign.

Rejected video for Doomsday Clock post
Jan. 24th, 2020 03:31 pmI decided to use two videos from ABC Australia and News.com.au instead of the CBS Chicago video below for The Doomsday Clock is at 100 seconds to midnight, least remaining time ever — so far at Crazy Eddie's Motie News. So, I'm sharing it here.
The world is closer to Doomsday than ever before. Katie Johnston reports.

After yesterday's whining about not posting anything here the day before, it's time to return to my regularly scheduled entries. Here is what I had planned for yesterday.
PBS Eons on the last time the climate warmed this fast — the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum
Acid rain, climate change, and ozone depletion contributed to the Permian Extinction AKA The Great Dying
Tomorrow, I have something fannish planned. Stay tuned.

I promised that if I wrote another blog post about COP24, I'd share it here: A tale of two reports about the state of the climate.
I also promised that if I wrote my planned post about the Nobel Prizes, I'd share it here: Celebrate Peace, Economics, and science winners for Nobel Prize Day 2018.
Just for laughs, I'm linking to Vice and CNN show their viewers the doomsday bunkers of the well-to-do.

I've been in a serious mood over at Crazy Eddie's Motie News, so my entries reflect that. Here are links to this week's entries that I haven't already posted here, which are about climate, health, and the economy.
SciShow examines the science of the Flint Water Crisis
U.S. life expectancy drops for third straight year because of suicides and drug overdoses
Katherine Hayhoe, lead author of the National Climate Assessment, responds to Santorum and others claiming she's in it for the money
Schwartzenegger and Attenborough address U.N. climate conference in Poland
[The] Lancet reports climate change is a 'medical emergency'
Part of the yield curve inverts, sending a possible recession signal
For bonus gloom and doom, I'm also sharing The Insect Apocalypse Is Here from the New York Times.
I may not be done. I'm feeling another entry about the U.N. Climate conference coming on. I'll add the link if I write it.
Also, welcome to my new subscribers coming here from Tumblr!
