"Welcome to wonderland" - said the Cheshire Cat- "We're all crazy here"

Does this mean we're living in wonderland?

Sorry, my twisted in pain mind, comes up with such stuff to distract itself

By that standard I feel like there are a lot of wonderlands right now but they act more like hellholelands.

I don't live in california but I was listening to an oped piece. That place is representative of what we are in. It is the future for much of the world. The sky on a day in nov was a sickly looking orange. Very apocalyptic looking. Experts call it trans-apocalyptic. An apocalyptic world would be where the damage was complete. But I keep hearing from different experts that:

a. we need to change our view from "fixing" it to "adapting" to it. and

b. there is hope that we can do that.

An actually there are small countries that are doing just that.

"In California, as in much of the world, climate anxiety and climate futurism coalesce into trans-apocalyptic pessimism. But, in spite of the doom, Weil suggests the situation is not completely devoid of hope."

I would *think* this is not political but IDK anymore.

And that isn't even addressing war!

Aghhhhhhhhhhh

[Against_the_current in reply to Blueruth]

Don't panic me more

[Blueruth in reply to Against_the_current]

Well just remember there is hope. In the case of climate change countries and cities really don't need to rely on world leaders. There are things they can and should do on their own. It actually could be that "meek" will indeed inherit the earth!

I was just thinking how since 2020 the world is ending. Mom too. Please don't scare me more. And now seeing how America is going ( from Americans online) i'm panicing even more

[Blueruth in reply to Against_the_current]

We are in weird times. We will be okay. Idk if the human side will prevail but I listen to mlk and keep at it.

I'm getting scared. I thought i live in a bad place but the comments about your country and a video i saw on YouTube short scare the hell out of me. I don't need more horror. Even normal world is horrific to me. I need peace 😭

[Blueruth in reply to Against_the_current]

Stop with the YouTube! There are a ton of good leaders here. I personally know several!

[Existing in reply to Against_the_current]

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. It must be terrifying to feel that way about the world. My home and town are safe and secure. I hope you are too.

[Against_the_current]
