Another thunderstorm bearing down on us. This one's big. Already lost power, while typing original comment. Seven days in a row I've lost power, one night for eight hours straight. (This is no shit--lots of crazy storms in this region this season, spring/summer 2011). Already lost a tree, snapped like a twig--poor bastard. And now, ping-pong-ball-sized hail nailing my siding and windows. Fuck. I guess my house deserves it for being there, but I can't afford a new roof. My <a href="http://www.apexbattery.com/car-batteries.html" target='_blank' >car</a> just got hit, too. What am I supposed to do about all those dents? If only I could have afforded a Prius. Goddamn you, George Bush!!!! Ahh. Cozy. Now I feel much better. Oh shit, must update. Another thunderstorm bearing down on us. This one’s big. Already lost power, while typing original comment.

I read the comments. And yet, as I stare intently at Photo One, I find myself wondering, "What's so bad about that?" I mean, is that possibility (or probability, or inevitability, or whatever) really supposed to scare me into changing my ways and giving <a href="http://www.cheapo.co" target='_blank' >money</a> to some guy or group with the answers? I mean, have some imagination. Such an event could turn out to be the single most important, beneficial event in the history of mankind. Is there any human being who can say with certainty that that would not be the case? The human mind is so puny. Welcome to hell, indeed. I read the post. I read the comments.

The human mind is so puny.

Welcome to hell, indeed.

You do sound a bit like a fascistic race supremacist yourself though, barking your hatred of attempts to provoke humanity into waking up, resisting that urge to indulge their greed to the point where life as we know it becomes impossible (peak oil, anyone? Nuclear power for all? Famine and starvation, GM crops?). It seems to need spelling out - photo 1 is an imaginary scenario designed to provoke a reaction to the most insensitive of individuals (seems to have worked); the Day After Tomorrow is fiction; Bush was less a fascist and more an idiot; and how exactly are environmentalists making you feel like you're being treated "cruelly and unjustly"? Did someone make you put rubbish in a bin instead of it blowing out the back of your pick up truck? Poor ickle mini-Bush you just keep eating your fast food and the preservatives will make you feel much better (bet you think there's nothing wrong with that particular gem of capitalist invention either, nothing "cruel and unjust" about fast food industries, eh ). Lots of green kisses to you you knobhead How imaginative of you to compare liberal environmentalists to the Third Reich – I have so far been unaware of the environmentalists plan to destroy a race of people, in fact I thought the overarching aims of green campaigning are the opposite of this.
