Spot-on, as usual. To tart-up the aging cliché of "rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic," people at home and abroad are busily bashing each other over the head with those chairs as the ship steams, full speed ahead, towards the iceberg of global warming.

The future just ain't what it used to be.

Thank goodness for anti-anxiety meds and decent therapy, otherwise I’d be finding a tall building to hurl myself off of. I’m not joking. All of this is seriously affecting my mental health. Meanwhile, others around me are blithely sharing cute kitten pics and vegan enchilada recipes. I feel like I’m in a burning building, but when I tell people this and that they should get out I’m just told to sit down and shut up or don’’t be so freaking negative, look at the pretty colors of the flames! All I can do is hold on tight and hope we all come out on the other side, somehow, some way.
