When I found this amazing blog post (see also below, and thanks to Ilargi of The Automatic Earth, for the link) - in a truly amazing blog which is also known as 'Tessa Fights Robots', I first thought "Ah, here's someone who also enjoys playing the computer game 'Generation Zero', as I do. But no,... Continue Reading →
There Will Be A Day Of Reckoning
Today is the day of voting (in the US 2020 election). Soon there will be a day of reckoning. A day of "Awful Reckoning" according to Jim Kunstler, whose latest blog post I once again share in full below - or you can read the original here: https://kunstler.com/clusterfuck-nation/the-awful-reckoning/ One thing is clear.

Profound Humanism and Exceptional Moral Courage
