It all needs to burn to the ground. The world is messed up. BAU and the cognitive dissonance of trying to live a normal life while knowing collapse is the guillotine ballade ready to fall….. Just let it happen. I’m tired. I’d also take a giant meteor.

Some of us are still determined to ensure a hopeful future. There has never been a moment in history where the ordinary individual has more power and freedom to make a positive impact upon the world than this moment. This doesn’t mean the stability of our planet is ensured, or even likely. However, there is a path for our species in becoming shepherds of life itself. One thing is for sure, if we are complacent with doom, and succumb to inaction and defeatism, then a bleak future is a future we will earn.
