I just sold my elliptical exercise machine (see pic of his truck...zoom in on the signs on the side of it for a laugh) to a guy who is a serious anti-vaxxer/Trump supporter. Not a bad fellow...he bought the machine to "get a grip on his growing beer belly" (and no, I did not tell him it's about diet much more than exercise). Anyway; my point is that these Anti-vaxxers are almost decent folk....just naive and incredibly ignorant. I almost feel sorry for him...well....not for him but for his elderly family members....and any immuno-compromised family members who are much more likely to die from this thing than he is...

Beau of the Fifth Column - Let's talk about why there are more today than in the 1970s.

Robecology comments on Sep 23, 2021:

What Beau failed to touch on is the growing population. In the 70's (1973 to be specific) the world population was less than half of what it is now. More and more struggling harder and harder for less and less...equals more bodies brewing more disease variants faster. We're growing (births, minus deaths ) at the rate of 150 per minute. 9,000 per hour. 216,000 per day. We know the science of family planning. The question remains - do we wait until governments get oppressive with family size enforcement or do we lower our ego-drive for more kids because we're logical and intelligent? (dare I suggest that we're "logical and intelligent"? Bwahahahahahaha!) https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/world-population-by-year/

Almost all human-eaten fruits are said to have gone through a "co-evolution"...in other words...we evolved a taste for certain fruits...which we then "cultivated". Johnny Appleseed is a famous example - But if you google "Co-evolution" you see that birds, bees - almost any animal that ate a fruit or vegetable - helped in its' evolution. Mimicry (illustrated below) is a form of Co-evolution. (yes...despite the attacks on Wikipedia...I recommend it.). It's also well known that we humans learned to create "cultivars" If you saw the versions of corn and watermelon from even a few decades ago you'd be astonished.

I've been reading how the "pioneers" of Afghanistan have -without any budget - fought off huge nation after nation trying to come in and control them. No guns of their own. No bullets. No military budget. No air force. Yet they keep push major nation after major nation out...while doing whatever they like.

It's the same god also

We are in this world for the same reason any living thing and any combination of molecules that acts in such a way to replicate itself....because it can. We have no purpose. We are here - in this human form - so extremely lucky. We could have been a plant...who knows...maybe our molecules were once another living thing. But now we're here...in this human form...for a very short time. Why ask why? Just enjoy it...take advantage of it. That part about "dust to dust, ashes to ashes"? That's about the only real, honest thing anyone says at a funeral.

Never, ever, tell! Lol

Robert Reich is a fading voice in American politics. He used to be on Bill Clinton's cabinet. Then he went in to teaching at a California school. He's a short man....I'm afraid height-ism is still alive and well. https://robertreich.org
