God demands you choose one to sacrifice forever. What do you choose? From this random list of 10..

Cotton seems the easiest and safest to replace.

Get rid of money, see all those rich assholes discover they'll have to get their hands dirty to survive from now on.

If the summer is just replaced by longer springs and falls, I am totally down for that. Especially with the whole climate crisis.

That'd hurt just as many poor assholes

I would say money and we could be like Star Trek, but currently, wealthy individuals possess more resources and thus maintain control. Cotton, on the other hand, is something we could do without. Many people suffer or even die from the lack of air conditioning, so losing it would be catastrophic. As for sports, they cover a huge range of activities. For instance, dancing is a form of sport unless you are raygun, so eliminating it would remove a lot of joy from life, running , chess could even go on the list. Therefore, cotton is replaceable.

Sports. I already don't care.

Summer would stave off the climate apocalypse a bit longer

I put stop signs. Just make them yield signs or round abouts.

Money

Stop signs. Probably, of those options, will have the less impact on humanity.

Stop signs. We can just use traffic lights instead.

Signs dont use electricity like lights do, good for any time storms pass through and power goes out, crews dont have to waste time fixing and resynchronizing them.

this is a pretty diabolical list.

Just one?

Kidding, it's summer. Just summer.

As someone who's driven through a town/city without power due to a storm at night I can promise you, you won't be able to see a stop sign. An emergency light at least flashes.

Fuck stop signs. I'd love more roundabouts or at worst additional stop lights.

Whats the hate for stop signs?

Depending on where I prefer them. So stop lights take so fucking long to change

If there's no power, you wouldn't be able to see the signals either.....

Many are on generators that allow it to still function even when power is out.

But not all are. That city I drove through also didn't have that, except one light near a fire station that flashed yellow.

But I do know how fucking scary it is driving slowing down a street then realizing I just drove through an intersection.

Floridian here. Summer can go to hell.

Cotton

Summer is the worst invention ever.

I'm guessing North and South poles is the worst option. I'm not sure exactly what would happen if they disappeared but it wouldn't be good.

Them disappearing would probably mean our magnetic field is gone which would cause the extinction of all life on planet earth.

Yeah, I figured it was something along those lines

losing summer would probably be more catastrophic than people think

mirrors is a based easy pick

In a few years late spring and early autumn will pick up the slack.

Without mirrors there will be a lot less tools for research, no more telescope or microscopes and that would be a blow to fighting illnesses.
