hunks of meat
after the death of god, they needed a new idol
the human spirit
the vast, unstoppable collective will
that clandestine force in which we may anchor our faith the 1 thing against which we still shame and shun heretics
and that is how scientists avoid sounding like pessimists when they talk about the climate displaced refugees,
cities where people can't even work in the day light because of the heat
the so called "doomsday iceberg"
the resurrection of ancient diseases
hunger, thirst, waged wars, floods,
an old man, hiding in his pool, holding his wife while California wildfire consumes everything around him
but it's not too late to turn it around, they always say
we have to technology
and we have the human spirit
I don't know where anyone got the idea that humanity was ever anything but a bunch of shitting, fucking hunks of meat.
the mayor of New York recently declared a 3rd state of emergency, in addition to Corona and monkeypox this time it was polio, a disease that was practically eradicated in America
because humans didn't want to get the vaccine which was proven to work
and everytime we make more green energy, we burn more fossil fuels
we absolutely have the power to turn it around right now
but thats not what hunks of meat do.
