If only they had known
The human race
is in the
position the
dinosaur race
was in some
25 years
before the
impact of the
Chicxulub
meteor.

Robots is a
better name for
fundamentalists
of all
religions
World view
There is a real world
described by science;
and then there are
many imaginary worlds,
described by religion,
and politics,
and astrology,
and the media,
and psychics,
and economists,
and ideology,
and common
sense.
Get a life
Hard to take
seriously an
imaginary
being who wants
his (yes his)
followers to
be primarily
concerned with
their dead
epidermal cells:
their colour, their
arrangement,
who can see tnem,
and which bits can
be rubbed
together by which
people.
System failure
Capitalism
is the best
system for
making a small
number of
people very rich.
Slavery
is the
second best.
Value of nothing
Politicians
and journalists
always demand to
know, and then
reject, the cost of
measures to conserve
the environment.
But neither ever
ask the cost
of war.
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends,
with the bang of a
million trees exploding,
with the whimper of a
thousand koalas dying,
and unbreathable smoke,
and blowing dust,
and drying earth,
and drying rivers,
and a howling wind,
and a bloody Sun,
and a feeling of
utter helplessness.
Destroying the village.
Whodathought?
(Not me).
That the same
people who
damaged the
world by
flooding it with
carbon dioxide,
now say they can
solve the problem
by flooding it with
radioactivity?
General Donald J. Trump
Viewed from afar,
in ignorance,
really, and with
no dog in the hunt,
no skin in the game,
no horse in the race,
it seems to me
that America has
recently refought
her Civil War,
but this time
the South won.
