    Just watched a Netflix documentary that makes you realize we will eventually become extinct whether we help out or not. I guess slowing it down will give us enough time to find a new planet.

    Ice age, heat wave, can't complain
    If the world's at large, why should I remain?
    Walked away to another planet
    Gonna find another place, maybe one I can stand

    Is passing from cancer being killed? How about heart attack, covid complications, etc.?

    It is a little cooler today than it was yesterday. I noticed my local meteorologist said the average temperature today is one degree higher than it was yesterday. Kinda crazy.

    I tend to fixate on a band for a while and move on to the next. My MM fixation doesn't seem to go away. They're the perfect band to just keep peeling back the layers and enjoy songs you couldn't previously access. They're their own flavor tho, for sure. And that flavor isn't for everyone.

    They just announced another tour with the Pixies, FYI.

    Yeah one day when a giant asteroid smacks us or when the sun swells to red giant stage.

    Unless we go full nuclear of have a giant CME humans will be running around on the earth for millennia.

    We will know that we are out of the last ice age when Florida is underwater again.

    Really, warm or cold is just a state of mind. Why do you all have to make everything so binary???

    I had never heard of them, but just told Alexa to play them and while I'm just in the first song I can already tell I'll like them.

    Sounds a lot like the Talking Heads.

    I tend to agree, however, the way things are going I'm thinking we will be in for more of a Mad Max future than a Star Trek future.
