Maybe this isn’t right, but I remember reading that most young boys 50 years ago dreamed about becoming astronomers, scientists, firefighters and policemen. Now young boys dream about becoming influencers, streamers, and rich personalities. Was Idiocracy written by a time-traveller? Are we working hard to make it a reality?

    It’s all the corruption of the planet. We are just a part of this living system. But we have poisoned it and now it’s a warm stew of rancid sewage. Micro-plastics, MechaHitler, Orange-Hitler, Global Warming, disease and war, famine, Pfas, Lead, toxins everywhere. We’re almost done destroying it all…

    So no, there is no more dreaming. My childlike hope of a Star Trek future is now like a Reverse-Aliens movie. We must do everything possible to prevent mankind from escaping this planet alive. Kill the Virus before it spreads.
