I’m not sure what you guys are worried about. All that extra heat will just dissipate into the atmosphere and eventually radiate into space. It’s not like there’s anything in the atmosphere that would interfere with this cycle… right?

Tbf, in a vacuum, alcohol consumption isn’t all that bad. However, given the levels of consumption, the historical significance, the cultural ties, and insane normalization of binge drinking, yeah, this shit’s a fucking problem. Among the preventable risks listed, I think alcohol is absolutely going to be the most stubborn problem, as at least tobacco usage has a growing stigma around it. And I think another big problem with how stubborn alcohol as a problem will be versus smoking is that smoking is bad for you if you do it at all. Alcohol isn’t necessarily that bad having a drink or two on occasion, but, considering the state of things, maybe it wouldn’t be so bad to have a little more health stigma around alcohol than there is now.

Holy shit. Directly treating the cause of cartilage loss with pill-form treatment in human trials right now. The shit we’ve been doing with medical science recently is fucking wild.
