Time of the Apes was a few episodes of the 1974 Tsuburaya Productions’ television series Saru no Gundan (Army of the Apes) edited together to make a feature film.
More than 5 billion people would die of hunger following a full-scale nuclear war between the U.S. and Russia, according to a global study led by Rutgers climate scientists that estimates post-conflict crop production.
“The data tell us one thing: We must prevent a nuclear war from ever happening,” said Alan Robock, a Distinguished Professor of climate science in the Department of Environmental Sciences at Rutgers University and co-author of the study. Lili Xia, an assistant research professor in the Department of Environmental Sciences at Rutgers, is lead author of the study published in the journal Nature Food.

Under even the smallest nuclear scenario, a localized war between India and Pakistan, global average caloric production decreased 7% within five years of the conflict. In the largest war scenario tested—a full-scale U.S.-Russia nuclear conflict—global average caloric production decreased by about 90% three to four years after the fighting.
Crop declines would be the most severe in the mid-high latitude nations, including major exporting countries such as Russia and the U.S., which could trigger export restrictions and cause severe disruptions in import-dependent countries in Africa and the Middle East.
These changes would induce a catastrophic disruption of global food markets, the researchers conclude. Even a 7% global decline in crop yield would exceed the largest anomaly ever recorded since the beginning of Food and Agricultural Organization observational records in 1961. Under the largest war scenario, more than 75% of the planet would be starving within two years.
“people are realizing during the pandemic we are not offering adequate compensation and working conditions and there are strikes all around the world, clearly the answer is not to take this into account, but just employ more children”
Call your fucking representatives and threaten to vote them out no matter what if they don’t do something to stomp this into the ground.

8 hour work days are now a minimum not a maximum, and frequently exceeded.
Child labour is creeping back in at the edges.
Workers are not being allowed to sit, or drink water, or take proper breaks.
Signs point to another labour movement being necessary, and those signs are “the exact things that caused the last labour movement.”
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
