Throwing in the towel on Earth

We're right and well fucked, things have gone pear shaped as it were...to coin a Norman phrase.

I think it's time for the GIVE UP party, not to run for office, obviously...that wouldn't be giving up would it?

No, We need a GIVE UP party to throw parties. To throw soirees. To throw trash out the windows? Maybe not...

Just because we are fucked doesn't mean that we have to be assholes to one another, directly.

We are awful to other humans every day and we don't know it, buying cheap chicken from the market, shopping TEMU.

I'm not saying we should start burning our trash, but at the same time, we have to admit, things are past the point of getting better.

Things are terrible in almost every conceivable way - global pandemic, trumpism, israel, russia, AMOC, parade shootings, education, cost of living, volcanos...it doesn't stop.

It is silly to pretend like we aren't past the edge of the cliff.

Let's be grown ups and see it for what it is and decide how best to have a controlled shutdown, as opposed to a violent explosion.

Let's stop pretending like we can right the ship, so that we can start the orderly evacuation.

Not from earth.

Too late for that.

An orderly evacuation from current societal structures and norms. 
Better learn to fish and hunt mushrooms.

Better not care so much about Kardashians.

More people could be okay, or at least suffer less if we weren't so focused on the prentend chance we have that the planet doesn't puke us out.

Perry Farrell says in the song pets :

"My friend says we're like the dinosaurs

Only we are doing ourselves in

Much faster than they ever did

We'll make great pets "
