Where truth is
the last thing
that matters
SUNDOWN FOR SENTIENCE
The December sun, never very bright anywhere on the north side of our planet, nevertheless seems dimmer this year. Come to think of it, it seems dimmer every year. I wonder if that’s simply a sign of ever advancing age as the physical light within us naturally dims with age, or if the collective environmental karma of the human species that we lately breathe in the glyphosate of big city bus exhaust is simply making everything grayer, the way it was in 19th century England at the dawn of the Industrial Age when the factory slums were covered in coal dust, rust and typhoid fever, or the way it is now in every brown-aired megacity in the entire world.
Of course, the dinosaur fever trend has now switched from hot to cold. Ten years ago global warming guru Guy McPherson was prancing around the planet telling everyone to kiss their ass goodbye because we were going to burn up in a few decades as tsunamis of methane erupted from the Arctic Ocean. But because of the long pause in sunspots these past few years, now informed solar system talk is all about global cooling, and a many dire catastrophe scenarios have surely grown up about that. The worst of these is probably this one.
