Cut the grass and ran the weed wacker for the first time in three weeks, so it's been that long that I've been on that side of the house, and I almost walked into this while weed wacking.

An uplifting essay:

"All that is wrong might be put to rights, we think, if only we could find a way to live within the purely creative and inherently benevolent order of existence.

Unfortunately, these long-held assumptions and aspirations are no longer tenable. In fact, our most excessive actions as a species – destroying rainforests, causing widespread extinction, altering the ocean’s chemistry, ‘time-bombing the future’ with forever chemicals and more – are perfectly in keeping with the ultimate aims of the Universe.

Reality, as we now understand, does not tend towards existential flourishing and eternal becoming. Instead, systems collapse, things break down, and time tends irreversibly towards disorder and eventual annihilation. Rather than something to align with, the Universe appears to be fundamentally hostile to our wellbeing.

According to the laws of thermodynamics, all that exists does so solely to consume, destroy and extinguish, and in this way to accelerate the slide toward cosmic obliteration. "

I heard that Netflix has made it easier to choose movies by giving you choices based on your astrological sign. I haven't tried this out since I cancelled their a$$ with their last round of price hikes. First they boost subscribed users by coming down on account sharing and then they justify a price hike based in the increase in users. Shesh.
