Numb. 1507 Monday (Again)

Things do NOT dream.

There is NO scheme.

If clearly seen,

they are what they seem.

Though it disturbs

religious fandom,

life as we know it

is essentially random.

Revolution is no solution.

It is subsumed by evolution.

A COUPLET OF THOUGHTS  

A Market-Rattling Attempt to Make the American Economy Trump Always Wanted

The president dreams of factories reopened and towns revitalized by tariffs, but stocks plunged on fears economic growth will suffer - WSJ

Having become Heaven's Gaetz clone,

GOP's building its very own Jonestown.

If you are thinking,

“O, WTF!

This has to end."

Good night. And good luck.

You're out-of-touch, friend!

DON’T PANIC!

I’ve got this entirely in hand.

It’s working out just as I planned.

“Allies'” reserves are in U.S. dollars.

I render them worthless, they gotta borrow

crypto from me and (TRUE son) Elon

who, though South African,

like me — and God — is North European.

It’s fun having money, it’s fun to deploy it,

but when I destroy you I really enjoy it.

SNAP!

Do you recall when they stress tested banks

and said things were (mostly) okay.

With my Trumpocracy testing democracy,

I'd say things are going the opposite way.

TRUMP LEGAL DOCTRINE

‘LAW’ is a theory. As is ‘Evolution’.

Why does TRUMP need a ‘Constitution’?

Whatever I do and get away with

is, as I see it, perfectly legal.

A Kremlin envoy on Thursday praised the

Trump administration for hearing "Russia’s

position on many issues"... - New York Times

I am instructed to tell you directly from Vlad

belated thank you for support in Crimea.

Also must ask — I trust not in vain —

can you please help us conquer Ukraine?

Our forces, like yours, have lost the knack

of fighting folk who choose to fight back.

Our proposition: in Ukraine you lend us a hand

then, maybe, we help you seizing Greenland?

As maybe perhaps-be you already know,

we have expertise with ice and snow.

Numb. 1352 Overcoming Depression While Doom Scrolling

Nostradamus DOES NOT mention Donald.

Maybe Donald is not really be here.

Civilizations always fall anyway.

If Donald destroys ours why should we care?

Climate is crumbling, we’re turning plastic.

Perhaps it is time we do something drastic?

Evolution’s a game of musical chairs.

Trip up that couple and we'll grab theirs.

Peace, love, and joy are unobtainable.

Life on Earth was NEVER sustainable.

Muck-Trump prompts entropy to hurry up.

THE END will come sooner and be ab...

Numb. 1250 Survival Of The Numbest

Academic Danilo Brozović says studies of failed civilisations all point in one direction – today’s society needs radical transformation to survive — Guardian

If we contrive somehow to survive

catastrophes of our own making,

How many, I wonder, will be alive

to pick up whatever is left for the taking?

Will civilization crumble completely

and indoor plumbing be butt a memory?

Will we don hand-me-down animal skins

and wear hand hewn, stone-tooled accessories?

OR

will Donald and Elon provide a solution —

after rebooting the Constitution —

enabling thriving amidst destitution;

ignoring those who request restitution;

while unworldly Bernie rants, “Redistribution!";

drunk, Rudy grumbles, “Unjust persecution!";

and Matt Gaetz, as ever, pursues prostitution?

Will there, instead, be a revolution?

Is this the DEAD END of evolution?

Numb. 1223 Thoughts For The End Times

You needn’t be dense to deny climate changing

as you watch while Antarctica melts.

I repeat, YOU NEEDN’T BE DENSE!

However, it sure as hell helps.

You cannot o’ercome plate tectonic subduction

by having the state own the means of production.

The human attention span, if it exists,

is somewhat less than that of a goldfish.

Had we stayed in the trees

eating fruit, bark, and leaves,

we could have never become

“Destroyer Of Worlds” —

our worst ever notion,

seeing we have only one.

Nevertheless, from trees we descended

and, as a result, the planet upended.

Starting all over? NOT recommended.
Given the messes we keep creating
our continued existence is exacerbating.
