In many places, the world has gone mad. Not only there in gaza. In

Think of Russian roulette, and imagine that every threat to human
existence is another bullet in the chamber of a revolver:
Nuclear war
Climate catastrophe
Misanthropic AI
Geo-magnetic storms
Man-made viruses
How many bullets before we no longer have any chance at all?

Don't care.
That is all theoretical anyway.

What bothers me is that we seem comforted by meaningless empty words.

They are just words on a screen, according to Tang.
Some scientists say we have less than ten years. What are the odds?
Six shooter, five bullets. Are you feeling lucky?
Apparently, there have been five mass extinction events on earth, so far.

Yes, the difference is that the dinosaurs did not make it happen by
driving around in cars.

Let's say you are playing Russian Roulette with a loaded revolver.
Five bullets in a six shooter.
