Default Fear not

I think most humans will die as a result of pollution and global warming. They won't all die in the same year either. It will take a while.

That process has already begun, years ago. So, fear not, and carry on.

Have a laugh, love a lot, drink a little. Hug the children, pet the dogs. Be kind to each other. It is all we have, all we ordinary people can do.

I was expecting this ever since last year and though you have to take the whole Doomsday Clock thing with a grain of salt, it's a good barometer for global problems.

I think ever since the whole situation with Ukraine got hot, this was inevitable, and I can't say I'm happy about it at all

The first step toward turning the clock back would be to destroy any bunkers that governments have built for themselves to survive. If gov't screws "this" up, there's no way I want those jack wads to survive.
