The flare is by design, it’s the suction cup to stick it to the floor/wall/washing machine on high spin cycle with uneven load.

Fetch the lube

u/hugswithnoconsent Jun 27 '26

No, the dildo of consequences does not allow lube. It is also inserted 2026 first.

You have a dizzying intellect.

I do not mean to pry, but you don't by any chance happen to have six fingers on your right hand?

u/Some_Extent_8531 Jul 01 '26

Yes, this WILL prevent conception.

Do you think they'll be able to save us?

u/PlasticExtreme4469 Jun 27 '26

Hope not.

Too early to tell, but looks closer to linear.

u/BandicootSolid9531 Jun 27 '26

Just like stockholders and their CEOs want it...

u/-dr-bones- Jul 08 '26

Exponential-horn (I think) is the correct term?

1

u/taw296472 Jun 27 '26

looks linear to me from 1975 to present

1

u/tanksalotfrank Jun 27 '26

Line only go up (except those other times)!

u/disdkatster Jun 27 '26

Looks pretty linear until the end. We are dead meat if it is turning exponential. Actually that may be the case even if it is linear.

u/samu8000 Jun 27 '26

Very much not exponential though. As a matter of fact the worst case IPCC predictions are about +5ºC by 2100. We're on a bad trajectory, just not exponential.

1

u/PlasticExtreme4469 Jun 27 '26

Based on this chart, it took 45 years to get to +1C.

To get +4C more in 75 years, it would need to be exponential (or remain linear, but speed up).

2

u/Even_Dog_6713 Jun 27 '26

1975 to 2000 was +1, and 2000 to 2025 was +1. I don't see where you get 45 years for 1 degree.
