Freezing in the shadows of despair, with the universe as a gravitational weight dragging me in deeper and deeper into the void, total darkness not a speck of light, void of all sound the crushing weight prevents the very breath to leave your chest, your heart beats like a circle of out of tune drums, pain floods your body like a dam breaking and drowning a town, you can't move can't reach out, even the thoughts in your head are silenced in this void, nothing but pain exists, your body in constant turmoil, exhaustion beyond comprehension, deeper and deeper with every beat of your heart, no escape no reprieve, just an empty void desolate and filled with pain;

The Japan Times

After yet another sleepless night the old man drags his breathless lifeless corpse out of a sunken bed of jagged shards of metal and thorns, as the classical music plays he scrapes his stif pain filled body across the floor to prepare his coffee, hands trembling as he pours in the water and counts the scoops of grind, fumbling unable to yet see he manages to plug in the percolator, as the coffee begins to perc he shuffles off to the toilet, where his bowels bellow out in painful hunger, in the mirror stands a face of time who's hair is greasy and beard disheveled, he stripps of his undergarment, and enters the shower, first the icy water then the boiling flow, he struggles to brush his teeth, washing his hair becomes a feat of strength, as the water pours over him, his weakened grasp begins to scrub the soap upon his worn out body, the shower is exhausting and there is nothing refreshing about the moment, he shuts off the water grabs his towel and begins to dry, slowly exiting the shower he returns to the mirror to begin the arduous task of brushing out his long hair and beard, by the time he is finished no strength is left, he shuffles back to his bed, upon the edge he sits as he struggles to pull on a clean undergarment , socks and pants, he rises with legs of jelly and manges to pour a cup of coffee, carefully he packs his pipe with scraps of tobacco, he pulls on his coat as he opens the door, stumbling outside the air cold damp thick and still, darkness fills the sky, as the world begins to wake and go by, not one person even notices nor cares for plight of life and the horrors this old man must endure, for another pointless day begins;

A vanishing deterrent? Europe’s fishermen patrol our waters in shrinking numbers

From a national security perspective, fishing fleets are manned by the best soldiers we never knew we had.

99.8% of sentient corporeal humanoid beings, lack intellectual consciousness, as their physiology and biology simply cannot handle the mechanics to produce the abstract computations to obtain intellectual consciousness;
