no. so they can secure fertile soil. buy it up so no one else can, and sit on it until the time is ripe. they have access to lots of information before it comes down to citizens, which allows them to make decisions for the next couple of decades. these people operate with a lot more information about the future than we do.

i do realize that we can't all go back to living in villages and be craftsmen, nor should we expect that from anyone, frankly. i believe in a certain amount of freedom and liberty, but i also think that certain regulators must always be in place. i also strongly believe more emphasis should be given in individual education into "things that matter" on a personal, nuclear family level. what i was trying to get at, is a bit of a paradigm shift... of course all major polluters are corporations, but so is a general excess of consumerism; you can't have smoke without the fire. if people gradually stopped buying into that excess, the footprint of major industry would be much smaller. of course there are immediate needs that can only be solved by mass production and global logistics, etc. but not everything! we tend to build tools and systems and organisations that fit all the issues and challenges, but it's not necessarily so. as if one shoe should fit all the feet. not everything can be solved by centralized supply-demand and businesses competing for the same percentage. some models work great for some problems, but work increasingly bad for other (to the point where the individual net gain does not in any way justify the overall expansion and pollution). i think the corpo think tanks have struck the perfect balance of educating the consumer to be just the right amount of dumb to not see the big picture, and claim "why can't i be the one to benefit from the global excess and sit on my arse all day (or when i come home from work)". It's a good balance of entitled egoism, comfort, and manufactured stupidity. therefore, a gradual swing into more pragmatic, less excessive society can only be done on the lowest levels, emerging as a new 'trend' if you like that, once gains enough weight, cannot be ignored. new problems will then arise, for instance the pushback from the corporations (mostly by influencing legislature). why do you think wealthy fuckers are buying all the farmland nowadays?

the most important thing about music is to shut up

study basic engineering and practice hand-working, invest in self-sufficiency, learn plants and their uses, grow and herd your food, repair, reuse, walk, cycle, learn terrain and water and be cautious around new-agers, astro-vangelists or whatever, idk, play less games... this is a lot to change, and we don't all want to, what do you live for? but it can be a generational thing, a long goal (we used to do that for a long time, and very well, too). this is hard to do. it's probably as hard, as it is to turn the entire 'system'. one can think like an ant, and wait for the queen to make a decision, and remain an ant. or one can think like a free-will individual connected into a larger organism.

blackbox life recorder is so fine, idk what you guys are thinking, it's groovy, it has more feelings to it, a bit more serious, and maybe disillusioned, but we have grown up too, right?

it's been pouring torrents of rain for half a day, and outside looks like weeks of monsoon already. my roof is leaking, so the upper staircase and all upper rooms have plastic bottles catching the leaks. trying to quell my disapproval of the situation with some Japanese koto music

that's very sad news. why did he die so young?

I've been thinking of getting myself Nightmare Asylum, but reading about the story kind of threw me off... idk if the first three Alien movies made such a grand impression on me that all story adaptations featuring growing and training aliens and bringing them to Earth (or just general Xenos on Earth) kind of rubs me the wrong way. To me, they belong to the space where no one can hear you scream the one novel that was truly terrifying was the Dr. Church's survival inside the alien Hive. I think it was called Alien: Labyrinth (maybe I remember wrong). God, that story is overwhelming horror.

had a nostalgia moment and watched Wolf (1994) with nicholson and pfeiffer hehe lmao my father loved that movie and took it quite seriously i can remember

bought several games during the recent steam sale gta5 (no, i haven't played it yet) steel division order of battle red dead redemption 2 quake entire series (because reasons) also have to wait for the new pc parts to arrive

i heard about that, but i always thought who tf has the nerve to just ask for money like that you know... i mean i know there's lots of different kinds of people, shameless and toxic etc. i can't imagine this happening in my social circle. i guess one can't really know people until the opportunity arises... i can imagine, though, one 'friend' of mine trying to coerce me into giving money away in a 'joking' manner, you know the one who is trying to get something out of you by 'joking around'.... heh

to clarify; i meant that all functional people in society are responsible. that is, excluding babies and children and mentally handicapped people, and others that fall into similar categories. i mean that on a global scale. i believe there is no excuse anymore to allow this raging greed-driven system to continue pillaging our planet and exploit everything they can put a price tag on. the ignorant should inform themselves, the passive should become active to demand accountability from the sociopaths and psychopaths who put themselves on top of our society - because we allow them to be our leaders. i'm sick of watching the legal system to let all this shit go on. we should demand proper ways by sheer mass of disobedience and show these fucks we cannot be pushed around and manipulated anymore. we should become a force again, the rich and powerful should fear journalists again, and legal repercussions. not just about global warming, but e v e r y t h i n g that is rotten in our society.

we deserve everything that's coming at us

Salve! Preparing camp for tonight inside ancient Roman fort. Very hot day today, and I shouldn't have eaten lunch in the afternoon. Saped my strength to fight the inclines and the heat. I know better for tomorrow now as i will face harder and longer inclines. Deus Mars nobis iterum subrisit. Ita omnes hostes Romae comprimentur.

fitting for guys named Jony and Marc

why does the soundtrack feel the need to scream in my ear

next up: hunger games

i try to understand, why all the individuals and organisations that are communicating these warnings, are not at the same time proposing actual measures. like how is there not an organisation connecting scientists from different fields across the world already (they had 6 years from the Paris Agreement at least), or even one university of world-status, sticking their heads together, do a mammoth-study, connect the dots, etc... and come up with a list: here, folks, this is what you can do, as a citizen, an individual, blabla, to start with, and be the example... and like why aren't there state universities and at least NGOs, offering (non-)formal education in matters of: climate basics, water cycles, soil, ecosystem, gardening, biology, fixing shit yourself, selling/buying used shit, conservation of basic everyday resources, etc etc... feature and push forward content creators that have this knowledge,... while they go lobby and campaign the shit out of politics, and use their knowledge and prestige to push the change. so, all they do is repeat the same shit and keep telling how bad it is and how much worse will it get. the only people i know, who had long before set on a path to be the least-consumers, are ordinary people who want to grow their own food, who have to work around all the bureaucracy and system-wide hurdles that always favor the plans of the corporations, and leave the work-willing, single citizen ignored and even prosecuted for exercising their own rights. so why don't they play the ticking watch sound and thrill the decision-making suits in private and public sectors? because everybody gets paid, and wont move a finger until gets paid, and it's all fucking business
