Booster 1, booster 2 etc…

EcoPeace for the Middle East.

Water thieves, catalytic-convertor thieves…

I.D. theft, Honda Civic theft…

Evangelical fired, evangelical re-hired…

Greta giving up on politicians, politicians giving up on Trump, Trump giving up on Twitter, Twitter giving up on Trump…

Just a tip of the iceberg today. And it’s only Wednesday, our new Friday.

No Time to Die….living on borrowed time, on borrowed money, and certainly, on borrowed bed (Airbnb).

Maybe better days are behind us. Maybe we should start smoking (don’t inhale) and start “a la recherche du temps perdus” (the auto complete can’t even “speak” French). It tries to fix it up as “a la research du temp Perdue”. Heck! I don’t go for Perdue Farm today. No Opioid or chicken.

I have blogged on this topic of humanity vs machine, and how hard we have to fight to stay in place.

Yet, it is taking over. Not all at once. Just one at a time. And of course, time is not on our side.

Now we can blame the algorithm for all the ills: amplifying our divide, inundating us with misinformation about voting and vaccines, and of course, recommending ill-suited friends on facebook.

Yes. Finally. Never been my fault. It’s all facebook’s fault (at least, the whistleblower says so).

No one is responsible for societal ills, except for society itself.

Science, technology and society. BTW, hologram was introduced more than 40 years ago. Now it might take off. That way, we can tele transport some images of me to you. Blame it. Not me. I might be a glitch. My parents’ faults. My schools’ faults. My spouses’ faults.

Leave me to take in my kids’ blame. Now that’s mine entirely. No way out. No avoidance. How our kids turn out, 100% our fault. Face the future. Face the fact. Face the re-Flection on the mirror. Who do you see? Case closed.

Then, I see Greta giving up on politicians. Brazilian politicians giving up on their president, politician of course. Republican politicians giving up (and receiving funds, supposedly to Trump’s new social media site) on each other, Dems almost giving up on one another during the Build Back de-Bacle.

The “giving up” movement almost over-shadowed the “giving-back” movement. The wealthiest American saw their wealth 70% richer. They could never ever give up, and never ever – to a certain extent – give back. Don’t know where/how to start. In Katie Couric’s phrase “willful misinterpretation”, billionaires perhaps honestly can face the studio camera and claim “willful ignorance” about current dilemma. Once the world goes to hell, where the hell can they spend their money? In hell – since where there is crisis, there is opportunity – the Chinese are way ahead of the curve: they got you covered on that too (currency in Hell). For us, the living, water, vaccines (booster no 2 after another six months) and clean air are our currency.
