Climate change and corporate greed. Two sides of the same coin, yes? One can only hope that the billionaire tech bros and their on-air friends will all bash each other to bits in their upcoming cage matches, and the mothers of the world will finally take their rightful place as head of everything.
I live in Vermont, typically imagined as a climate change refuge. But our summers are getting hotter overall, too,.and are cloaked in wildfire smoke. There have been days where the air isn't safe to breathe.for long periods, so we are stuck inside. And then last week, after a long period of drought, the rains and floods came. Many communities have been devastated by the damage, with entire blocks/areas underwater, homes flooded, and created dangerous landslides. It demolished a wastewater treatment plant, took out countless homes and businesses, and claimed at least 2 people's lives that we know of so far. This is all climate change.
FL has been brutal this summer, and I prior to reading your post, I was trying to figure out how we will get our energy out today without going outside. Ocean temps here are so hot we can't even get in the water to cool down. Monopoly is our latest obsession, and as 6 yo tells us before games, "I'm gonna get rich!" She may fit in well with the greedy Hollywood crew.
And finally, your micro rage is the bane of my existence. I just want an hour of alone time before I go to bed. Is this too much to ask? To tie it into your macro rage, I think also, spending the days indoors isn't allowing them to burn off their energy, allowing them (more) energy to resist sleep.

It has not been a relaxing summer.
YES. A million percent agree on everything!
