Like the Romans used to drink from lead cups. Something like that.

    Well, I just upvoted your comment above mine, FWIW. :D

    Yeah, I’m a weird one in wanting to walk through facts & reality to get to the other side, no matter how bad the news is. Very little harsh news depresses me anymore, maybe because I know what our endgame will be, approximately. We embarked on this path 10-12Kyrs ago when we made the global power grab upon mass-agriculture. But that’s a long story, haha.

    That said, loads of things these days make me sad, and there’s no question that each day’s news nowadays is usually a load of heart-break. So I can certainly understand why most folks want to live in more comfortable reality-bubbles than mine.

    (not to sound all pretentious or anything XD)
