Greetings good citizen, once again we get to mutter T.G.I.F. as the weekend finally crawls into view. [Admittedly time sort of just sails right by when you are not waiting for anything, in particular the clock itself, perhaps the only 'good' thing to be said about getting old.]
Ironic this also means there isn't a lot of sand left in the top of the hourglass...and fewer people get that reference just as fewer people remain that can read an analog clock or have to pause to mentally process terms like Quarter 'til or half past when a digital timepiece makes no such distinction.
Makes us oldsters wonder what it is like not to think of time as being 'round'...we can't imagine time being, er, linear.
How long will it be before barking the order, "watch your Six" is lost on the digital recruit? [TV is written by old people for old people...just saying.]
But that is only part of today's exercise in 'you can run but you can't hide.'
How many of you find it disturbing that sustainability is nowhere to be seen in the upcoming Presidential contest? [although it is, er, 'refreshing' that neither the Democrats nor the Progressives are running for Commander-in-Chief like the last Republican centric election.]
With the, er, 'acceptance' of the need to put the brakes on our wildly unsustainable commercial practices would come the drive towards 'equality' which many profess (publicly) to desire but privately they don't want equality at their expense.
We are all good with equality so long as it doesn't cost us personally.
Um, did you know that sustainability is a non-starter because it means 'life's, er, winners' would have to get by on less?
This concept is as alien to the feckless as linear time is to those of us born before the digital age.
They can't conceive of a system where ALL of the money doesn't flow back to them.
It is truly 'unthinkable'. They can't spend that money but to them money is meaningless, it exists ONLY to keep the rabble at bay and in thrall.
What is money to the feckless? First Dibs.
Is THIS 'sustainable'? Who gives a fuck...they sure don't.
Let's put a pin in that and circle back to the title of today's piece with that nowhere being just what you thought it was, there is nowhere to run, we are stuck here on a planet that is RAPIDLY being overrun by the TERMINALLY STUPID.
This is where 'I got mine, f-u' smacks face first into that hard, immovable object at terminal velocity.
How are you going to 'vote' for sustainability when it isn't even on the ballot?
Short answer, you AREN'T.
By the time the media is forced to bring this long ignored problem to your attention the ensuing panic will kill millions, just as the death toll of the GLOBAL refugee crisis [wake the fuck up, damn it!] is starting to take it's toll on the 'surplus population'.
Here's a sobering thought, if you could be replaced by AI, you're part of the 'surplus'...and nobody besides YOU are counting all of the 'nice things' you do for the people in your life, the feckless are called that for a reason, they truly don't give a...er, feck.
We are truly barreling towards 'the final solution' at ludicrous speed [because stupid doesn't have any other.]
Zero irony that the people who put their 'faith' in a being their great-great grandparents invented don't realize this isn't going to go the way they 'pray' it is going to.
The morons are already (or perhaps still) wrestling with how to keep the guards from laying siege to the storeroom and everyone starving to death...how's that for dumb, eh?
Problem with the criminals is you don't get to vote them out of what they have stolen, that's what Justice is supposed to be on top of.
Time is nigh we will be presented with the tab for allowing the 'Robber Barons' to hijack the justice system.
Exile still too harsh for your blood?
It's this 'reluctance' that brought us to this impasse...if YOU refuse to fix it, it won't get fixed.
Until next time, Head.
