Hopefully the New Year has been treating you right so far! Hopefully the leftovers from the holidays got properly frozen or eaten, with not too much going to waste.
Yesterday my man and I got out to fish. Just for a few hours, but neither of us had any luck. Never really do have much on the river and it was already a bit later in the morning when we set up. Gotta be out there early!! It was damn cold but much colder today. With the windchill it’s right around -27° C (about -17°f).
With the boatloads of bad in the news, and the doomsday clock about to be set for the year I can’t help but feeling a little dread about the prognosis of society. It seems like the fires are being lit from every angle and the objectives remain unclear to me. What we are told is never going to be what is reality. Everyone, even your heroes, have an agenda and goals that you don’t know about. We are chess pieces to them, not people. The quicker ai moves into problem solving, writing code, and automation becomes capable of hard labor the more of a useless liability the rest of us become. It will lead mankind into its next evolution, but not all of mankind. Where we are heading is somewhere we’ve never seen before…and the vast majority will not make it there.
I don’t have any advice except count your blessings and cherish each day. Breathe in the scent of those you love most. Pet your dog and cat. Take time to enjoy the world as you know it now. Remember and reflect on the moments that brought you joy. Find somewhere good to hide.
