Never quite know what will grab my attention. I’ve moved on from just agreeing that climate change will drastically affect the next generations and am actively looking at ways to build resilience and support each other. My generation has to hold its hands up and admit we failed to prevent this. Sorry kids. Going to spend my remaining time enjoying the best of humanity not the worst - art, cooperatives, writing, music, history, film (I should have just said arts), random stuff, etc. He/him
@GrimmReality I may be stretching the analogy but you really have to tip the board over at this point.
@GrimmReality And like Monopoly, you eventually run out of things to buy. The bubble of AI is like when you add other chips to stand in as hotels because the remaining players have so much money, normal rents are irrelevant.
@GrimmReality I suppose the US became a global power because it had oil (like Britain did a century earlier because it had coal) and because while Europe fought forever wars without any clear direction, somehow the US Civil War actually led to a structure that held together by putting wealth accumulation above all other considerations. Like a game of Monopoly, once the rules are set, the only possible outcome is the most ruthless among the rich gain all the power.

🏳️🌈🖖🏽Pride was born as a riot, and has always been an act of defiance. During my life, I survived an internment camp. I came out at 68. I've watched rights get won and now watch them being rolled back. Yet I'm still here, still proud, and still holding Brad's hand. They have never been able to extinguish us or our joy. And they won't start now. Happy Pride, friends. Let's make this the loudest, proudest one yet. 🌈 ✨️
John Caveney woke is me🛠️@seb321 As a humanist and atheist I wholeheartedly agree. However some people aren’t able to function with the knowledge that this life is all there is. So, in desperation they turn to religion that offers a seeming solution to their plight. In some cases it’s a matter of growing up, in others it’s a desperate need for answers to the situation they find themselves in. I’m not a believer of a creator, I think nature is awesome enough. The religious hierarchy are truly evil in my opinion.
@jaycee they’re all cults. All of the major religions, and shouldn’t be allowed to impose their rules on anybody who isn’t able to consent. So no kids, vulnerable adults or people marrying into families. I have no time for their demands for special treatment. Grow up and take responsibility for your own morality.
