4.87. Reflections on a Monday Night

I’m fairly certain the world as we know it is going to shit. I know, that people say this every few decades and are basically wrong. Still, this Trump stuff… I’m shocked at the level of stupidity we are willing to tolerate just so the ‘right people’ can stay in power. This is a disgrace on a global scale. This is one of the most egregious abusers of power we’ve seen in the last 50 years and he is destroying everything we’ve achieved post 2001. That is not going away. Not unless he goes away and we spend a long time repairing our world image over multiple presidents.

The thing is, I don’t see that happening. We will probably re-elect the fool, because people just don’t care. I was able to catch the newest episode of Saturday Night Live. One quote from the show: “Ain’t nothin gonna happen.”

So, here we are. Quite possibly in the twilight of the reality we’ve known thus far. It may be good to point out right now that we are starting to see evidence of multiple extra-galactic ‘projectiles’ shooting through our solar system. What this means to most is… nothing. What this means to me the sci-fi writer is that someone from outside of out galaxy is shooting at us and, given the complexities of solar-based gravity wells, they’ve been missing the target. I think the target is the sun. I think they have every reason to shoot us out of existence.

Some Thoughts:

  1. One of the posts got stuck in the draft list, so I had to figure out what day it was and post it… late. I think it was Saturday.
