So, a New Year is on the horizon. This doesn't matter, and yet, at the same time, as we know, everything matters. An important factor for us Darwinian atheists, in our short lives and in our literate homage to Mr Albert Camus, the suavest and coolest smoking existentialist we have known lately, involves making something matter, for ourselves and those we care about. To create Meaning. That's what humans can do. Good laws, good times, good improvements to how things are, for all of us.A better-off society. There are many things that are indeed still getting better. Mostly due to China in terms of alleviating world poverty etc now that everyone else has actually stopped doing that. And to remember Not to hate and be greedy etc, not to wage genocide on anyone, anyone at all. That'd be good. Gosh, wouldn't that be good? That some people actively choose the genocide of poor folk just trying to live on their own land, well, that's awful. They are very sick people who do do that and they must be stopped, and seriously punished, for sure. There used to be laws against genocide, even in our own time. Remember? Remember Human Reason? It had its limits but it was generally a good thing. There was goodness, bright thought, industrious compromise, intense negotiation, etc, and even some kindness to it. I liked Human Reason. I miss it.

 So, a New Year is on the horizon.

This doesn't matter, and yet, at the same time, as we know, everything matters.

An important factor for us Darwinian atheists, in our short lives and in our literate homage to Mr Albert Camus, the suavest and coolest smoking existentialist we have known lately, involves making something matter, for ourselves and those we care about. To create Meaning. That's what humans can do. Good laws, good times, good improvements to how things are, for all of us.A better-off society.

There are many things that are indeed still getting better. Mostly due to China in terms of alleviating world poverty etc now that everyone else has actually stopped doing that.

And to remember

Not to hate and be greedy etc, not to wage genocide on anyone, anyone at all. That'd be good. Gosh, wouldn't that be good?

That some people actively choose the genocide of poor folk just trying to live on their own land, well, that's awful. They are very sick people who do do that and they must be stopped, and seriously punished, for sure.

There used to be laws against genocide, even in our own time.

Remember?

Remember Human Reason? It had its limits but it was generally a good thing. There was goodness, bright thought, industrious compromise, intense negotiation, etc, and even some kindness to it.

I liked Human Reason.

I miss it.

I still like the idea of a fortress America, with a huge and high wall all around it. Close the borders in and out. Then give the people there as many high powered guns and drugs as they like, more tv channels, more angst, more disparity, and then just let them make sense of themselves. Less American school kids. That's not a crime. That's benign enhanced human evolution at work in the real world.

Hegseth

 Not judging, just noticing.

Pete Hegseth reminds me of the Damian character from the End of Days type movies, although I don't recall Damien drinking whilst masturbating, and getting the tasks mixed up so much.

Gaza Peace Plan TRUMP

 I think the plan will fall apart within 2 weeks when Israel receives a lot more, but a bit older, heavy bombing weapons from the USA. You don't need new expensive weapons to pulverise Gaza as they can't fight back. The USA moving both the bulk of older weapons to Israel, and the newer ones to their bases in the Middle East ready for a war with Iran, within that same two weeks.

There will be some bizarre scripted horror event that does marginal damage to Israel/US bases, and then the USA will cut loose.

I am not a robot. Anymore.
