The World is not Ending
This is not a sexy post. Repent of your sins for the world is ending. That’s sexy. That sells. We have five years before the climate kills us all. Sexy. Donald Trump is the end of democracy. Sexy and it sells. But like the threat of mass starvation, and acid rain, and (my favorite) the…
