Quicksand

The human race is racing

Towards that point of no return

Where glimmers of hope are merely mirages

That disappear at every turn

Now Michael Bloomberg is doing it. How very sad. Imagine if that $1 billion had been directed towards saving the planet (e.g., my ideas and strategies). Instead, we sink ever deeper into that quicksand of anthropocentrism.

How very sad. What sounds like good news, isn't. Imagine if that $1 billion had been directed towards saving the planet (e.g., my ideas and strategies). But now we sink deeper into that quicksand of anthropocentrism.

I hardly know where to begin to explain how harebrained this is. Way more than 100x more of us?
Living in space stations? (Even astronauts wouldn't want to live in space!) Wouldn't that block the sun?

I have written about the problems with religion as it pertains to saving the planet, and this article touches upon some of my deep concerns.

"Finland has topped the world happiness report rankings for the past six years – could its sauna culture have anything to do with it?"

I never liked saunas. Too hot! But it's been quite some time. With 'Raynaud's phenomenon,' might it now feel good?

This tickled my funny bone. (Coincidentally, just the other day I was pondering what sort of thing ticked the funny bone of our early ancestors some 200,000 years ago. What gave them a good chuckle back then?)

Does the "needle" here swing more towards Newsworthy or Captain Obvious? Aren't ignorance & inaction the greater problem? Consider this (...)

What happened to Homo neanderthalensis, Homo naledi, the Denisovans, Homo rhodesiensis, Homo erectus, Homo longi, H. floresinensis & H. luzonensis? (And why are so many H. sapiens largely incurious about such things?) Good questions.

I didn't read the article but this photo makes me think: If all this was was "virtue"-signaling it would be bad enough, but what if they actually believe there's some Creator of the Universe out there listening to them?
