I like what that guy said from that thing I didn\u2019t watch. I saw an excerpt which is of course all I need to form an opinion (heh) and I completely agree with him\/them\/that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Back in the \u201870\u2019s (that\u2019s 19-hunnert to you, whippersnapper) there was still time to maybe fix the mess man has made of the only environment in which he can live, but now \u2026 it\u2019s too late. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I feel so sorry for theKid \u2026 if I\u2019d been paying attention instead of being married the future would not be a concern, and I could stand smug in the nightmare dystopian hellscape that\u2019s on the way and laugh and laugh and laugh {Luke 21:23<\/em>} but however nevertheless I am not \u2026 and here we\/theKid are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With that in mind, I\/me\/we are working super-duper hard to make theKid\u2019s life a good one, and getting out of debt is a huge part of that, if for no other reason than to have more discretionary income (not DISPOSAL income \u2026 \u2018nother mankind masters mindtrick \u2026 ya don’t grind that crap in the \u2018lectric garbage chute<\/em>) to take theKid indoor skydiving and monster trucks and Shen Yun and chicken strips at the Habit Grill \u2026 I firmly believe in and am wholly dedicated to the idea that a memorable, good, fun, short life is so much better than one that is solitary, poor, nasty, and brutish, in addition to being short.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fact: we\u2019d have to work together to remedy the shifting climate changes as if it \u2018twere an alien invasion and ET was committed to total human extermination. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Rather than man gleefully engaged in his own destruction \u2026 but the Lord saw this coming.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n James Baldwin identified it as The Fire Next Time \u2026 a man truly before (and of) his time.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n China would have to agree. India would have to agree. The Taliban (nice job, Joe \u2014 Let\u2019s Go Brandon!<\/em>) would have to agree, because as soon as the Caliphate gets some nukes, trust and believe things are going to be waaay, waaay different over there, right here, and every where.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And we\u2019re not getting it, not as a species. We all bleed red, we all need to feed and water and shelter these bodies and catastrophic concussive impact turns us all to just so much meatsoup \u2026 and yet we argue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a really great\/sad\/devasting theoretical realcheck from July 2018 that discusses the inevitable social collapse that is coming due to the \u201ctragic unfolding\u201d of climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If I\u2019m not mistaken, Germany, China, and parts of North, South and Central America all experienced 1,000-year floods \u2026 which seem to be occurring with stunning repetition.\u00a0 Meteorologists and forecasters can\u2019t even use \u201cunprecedented\u201d in weather news anymore because it\u2019s all now precedented from the previous year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Excuse me ah-hem<\/em> there is no \u201cfire season\u201d \u2026 spring, summer, fall\/autumn, winter are seasons \u2026 the Burning West is just poor forest management digress<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Anyhoo \u2013 an Occasional Paper published by Dr. Bendell entitled \u201cDeep Adaptation: A Map for Navigating Climate Tragedy<\/span>\u201d is great bedtime reading for staying up all night, and talks about how the readers \u2026 the audience \u2026 you yes YOU \u2026 are going to experience the collapse of social conveniences during your (read: \u201cour\u201d) lifetime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Somebody referred to Greta Thunberg as a mentally disabled child \u2026 not Trump but some other lowlight \u2026 seems to me the younglings are shouting out the oldsters for burning the house down, whereas the olds are just turning down those pesky hearing aids, no need for all that noise. We gots money to make. <\/p>\n\n\n\n BTW\/fun factoid \u2014 Just 25 companies in the whole, wide world are responsible for more than half of the global air-goop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Well \u2026 the Lord said it: the love of money is the root of all evil {1 Tim. 6:10<\/em>} \u2026 I guess we\u2019ll all get to see where that leads us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Gotta getta tent, some butane tanks, and a portable grill. Already got the guns. Ammo. There\u2019s always room for ammo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n That being said: No more kids; not for you \u2026 for them<\/em>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I like what that guy said from that thing I didn\u2019t watch.
