Every day's a holiday

I can't remember what got me going down this road but I think it was a Prolific.ac survey about my feelings on global warming.  Their position was so milk toast that I got annoyed and it occurred to me.  I once had someone ask me to define existential and I had a hard time doing it.  The pundits are throwing around 'existential threat' a lot and I think I won't have to define it.  We can just watch.

Nothing anywhere other than something like a Dr. Strangelove nuclear war matters by comparison.

Not #metoo, not gun proliferation, even with the daily mass shootings in the U.S. it pales in comparison.  Not Democrat, not Republican, nor our rain 3rd party, Trumpism (although he apparently wants to see the cataclysm in his lifetime so he's rolling back anything that will slow the progress.  Not immigration.  Not economic collapse (yeah, recession or something new in that vein is on the way).  Not my life, nor my death, nor yours.  

None of it is as important as the fact that we are watching climate change in progress and still half of the country and all of Fox News do not believe it is happening.
