Die Gegenwart ist bestimmt von Handlungsunfähigkeit und Streit, vom Sterben der alten Welt, und der scheinbaren Unmöglichkeit des Entstehens, der Schaffung einer „neuen Welt“.
Die Gegenwart ist eine Zeit des Scheiterns, und genau deshalb eine Zeit der Monster.

"Arctic ocean passes 'irreversible' chemical tipping point: New data shows that decades of ice loss have fundamentally altered Arctic ocean chemistry, triggering an irreversible disruption to the foundations of the region’s food chain."
So many systems, so many collapses...

Woher soll der Mut und die Entschlossenheit kommen, die Bereitschaft für die „Torheit“ des Reiches Gottes? Ich denke nicht, dass die ersten Christen mutiger oder heroischer waren als wir heute. Aber sie waren „begeistert“, im wörtlichen Sinne erfüllt vom Heiligen Geist.

#TheComingFossilistInsurrection / #talkcollapse:
"#Modi has made it clear to India's 1.5bn people that he can no longer shield them fully from the econ. fallout of the war in the Gulf. He warned of a global 'decade of disasters'."
Witness the difference between rich & poor countries:
The "imperiale Lebensweise" is exactly what constitutes the difference between a rich country being able to "shield" most of its citizens "fully from the economic fallout" of crises, and poor countries that cannot do any such shielding, e.g. through subsidising fossil fuels.

Signing off for the day, to go stand in a goal.

In Leave the World Behind, Julia Roberts has this great #collapse monologue:
We fuck each other over all the time, without even realising it. We fuck every living thing on this planet over and think it will be fine, because we use paper straws and order the free range chicken. And the sick thing is: I think deep down we know we're not fooling anyone. I think we know we're living a lie. An agreed upon mass delusion to help us ignore and keep ignoring how awful we really are.
