12. Then, we are lost.

Gleefully watching as people slowly perish due to things that would be easy to handle, but our society is more worried about our 'dick waving' economy.

You know, the thing created by people that has somehow become far more important than the people who created and sustain it?



Oh well, it won't matter much soon.

I have been having pretty solid chest pains the past few days. Way worse than any before. There is nothing I can do about it.

That seems to be what our society wants. Hopefully, it won't take too long to appease them.

Also, thanks for the discussion. They never seem to get anything done, but they are informative and can be entertaining.

I would hope it is appreciated. I know I do.
