Is 2026 never going to end?

@petergleick
Thank you.

It will.

If we could fast forward to January 2027 we would see a much different world than this one.

What that looks like has not yet been written but this is now a straight-up morality play of Good vs Evil.

Evil is fixing as hard as it can to win it all while Good is still reeling in shock.

@petergleick The first 52 weeks of the year are always the hardest.

@petergleick If you ask some, 2021 is still going.

@petergleick the 2026 decade promises to last longer than the 2025 decade.

[idlebee@mastodon.world]

@petergleick it’s been a hell of a long year.

When Greenland melts.

Greenland’s ice holds enough water to raise global sea level more than twenty-four feet.

From Rebecca Solnit, Hope in the Dark

"...hope should shove you out the door,
because it will take everything you have to steer the future away from endless war, from the annihilation of the earth’s treasures and the grinding down of the poor and marginal. Hope just means another world might be possible, not promised, not guaranteed. Hope calls for action; action is impossible without hope."

Please return your seats to an upright position and fasten your seat belts.

Fascist turbulence ahead.
