Space junk punched a new hole in the moon. It’s not ours to abuse
"The space industry treats the sky as a place to dump what it no longer wants. We must develop a new model of accountability...Stewardship asks what we owe a place. Ownership asks what we can extract from it before anyone stops us."
"It’s the same hubris a mining company has about a river, or a fleet has about a fishery, right up until the fish are gone. We are simply exporting the same appetite further out, because the moon, unlike the ocean or the atmosphere, has no way to fight back."
"This is the same posture empires have always taken toward frontiers they didn’t build and don’t have to live inside the consequences of. Plant a flag, extract the value, leave the mess for whoever comes next, and call the mess someone else’s problem, or better yet, call it nobody’s problem, because there was never an owner to complain. People love to own the profits without owning the consequences of them left in their wake."
"Ownership was never really the problem. Nobody owned the lands where Native Americans thrived either. The problem is that we are acting out ownership’s oldest habits, extraction without accounting, expansion without consequence, on a body we all agreed, on paper, to hold in common." >>

Houses
There was a house somewhereAt the end of a roadThat dreamed it was a bodyPossessed by people. I was born a ghost thereWith knots tied on my feetAnd a cloak over my face.I bump into others. Spirits move diagonallyI learned that the hard way.The house groans when I talk,Creaking with discomfort. Study broken housesLong enoughAnd you are drawn to their gates.Such is architecture. May the burden be lifted,Even by a fraction,When I decide to moveAway out of its dream. And I float […]https://davidjosephwriteshere.wordpress.com/2026/07/20/houses/

In a shocking twist, someone finally realized #Google thinks they're 🤪 and decided to pull the plug on Gmail's digital babysitting service. Because nothing screams tech-savvy like abandoning the world's most popular email client because an #AI dared to suggest a reply. 💻✉️🚪➡️

Unsheltered in the wide open spaces
Unhoused in Australia: "‘A sobering indictment’: 14 homeless people die a year in public parks or countryside in Australia, analysis finds:"
"Between 2010 and 2020, 54 rough sleepers died in public parks, the analysis shows. Eighty-five homeless Australians died in countryside areas – including in bushland, desert, beaches and riverbanks – in the same period...It is a sobering indictment of societal abandonment and systemic failure." >>
