Missed your writing. Love the photo. Yes, they have killed the sense of beauty in the world, the shared experiences.
However, they are human and will die. Data centers will be destroyed or, better yet, will become obsolete in the next couple of years because tech has moved on. Just huge buildings filled with tech bricks.
You can't use all the water and bill taxpayers for corporate electricity use...people aren't having it.
Oligarchs are human, not enough security in the world to protect them. No bunker too deep to die in when its perfect system fails.
Teaching the wilfully ignorant, who cares? People make choices. Make sure there are consequences.
As for the evil ones designing all this...they have major enemies.
As for the normal folks Listen to music, draw, write, enjoy a good coffee and learn to shoot.
Thank you for this, Umair. Thank you for saying the quiet part out loud and speaking to the desperation so many of us feel. I have been in mourning for some time now for the life I thought I was going to live and the world in which I thought I would exist. But that world never came to be, and that life will never be lived. So I've been working on imagining a new life and a new world. I'm trying to hold on to hope, to joy and to love. There is still a place for these feelings. There is still a place for our humanity. But it has been a real challenge to figure out how that works and how it looks. My heart tells me I must persist in this search. It tells me I must find ways to love and to accept love in this desolate landscape. You and your writing have been a great companion to me. A whisper which gives me a sense of warmth. For that and for you, I am very grateful. Thank you.
Some just figured out that this is the human condition. Duh.
Someone also has a Christ complex. How arrogant to have assumed that one can save humanity.
He’s given up. But he never really started. But I agree: Fuck them.
Snowy (and dogs) are the purest and best things of this world. ❤️❤️❤️ holding on to that joy and sweetness.

At times like these I default to the greatest philosopher of our age:
"That is truer than true. There is no one that is you-er than you."
Dr. Seuss
Me? I got to get back to my fucking boulder. I'm going to get that fucker to the top of the fucking mountain if it fucking kills all of us.
