We Talk Friday
(WTF)
This is a semi-regular series that I will run on Fridays to hold discussions on a current topic from the week gone. The aim is to keep them light and conversational, though some might be heavier - regardless of the content topic itself though, just have some fun engaging and discussing with whoever happens to put in the effort in the comments section below.
We Talk Friday Ep. 49: The reality is
Summertime Sadness
The clocks changed in Finland last Sunday and I still think it is a waste of time. Why is it that people think that having a little more light in the afternoon somehow magically changes reality? Why are we so easily fooled and why are we so bad at dealing with reality? Changing the clocks doesn't change the environment in the same way that buying slimming clothes doesn't make us slimmer.
Nightmare Fuel
Okay, so the fuel prices are up a lot, but have you been thinking what I have been thinking? This conflict has been going on a few weeks now, but it seems that all of the governments are about as prepared as the average American - miss two pay checks and become homeless. While twenty percent of the oil goes through that strait, a lot of the fertiliser goes through there also, and now there isn't going to be enough for the growing season in the northern hemisphere. So they started a war knowing the potential disruption, without thinking about food supply??
Who are these clowns.
Destroying Bridges
The US bombed and destroyed a civilian bridge, so we can add that to the war crime list apparently. And the Iranians shot down an American F-15, which isn't a war crime. I don't know about you, but I think this war is going to drag out and we are all going to be price-gouged for years to come for it, and then pay for all the weapons bought and spent on top. Years and years of conflicts ahead, because they are massive money-spinners.
