The meteor shower is reaching its zenith on Wednesday – well timed for the cool of evening it is good to be awestruck by the heavens above. Also look out for Despite being millions of miles apart, Venus and Jupiter will look as if they’re close to bumping into each other in the night sky this month.Looking up is something many have forgotten how, the sky at night is awesome, but so are the clouds. Too many people spend their time looking down at their phones – it is no wonder that so many phones are stolen in broad daylight. The world is much bigger and more interesting than the microism that is the world of our phones. Apparently stealing handbags is the latest trend in Paris where there is a market for leather designer handbags.
Are our streets safe? 50 years ago there were places I would not wish to walk alone at night – this has not changed. Phones should be kept in a pocket or a bum bag, and not used whilst walking the streets. Handbags used only for cosmetics and hygeine items. That would cut down on the street theft statistics. Jenprick and Farage would still try to incite violence against migrants anyway.
What else – Gaza. The fascist government of Netanyahu has plans for the Palestinians that they will not like. No fucking surprise there, and israel threatens the UK with a travel ban – no shit! Whilst there were over 500 arrests at a pro-Palestine demo in London (49.9% over the age of 60! – maybe my generation were not all bad!) there was also a small demo to promote the plight of the hostages. I have sympathy for them – in buckets – but what choice does Hamas have, but to keep them as hostages? They are probably at more risk from the IDF and air raids than Hamas anyway. But from the Hamas point of view the hostages are the only bargaining power they have left? We assume that destroying 69% of buildings and conduction over 50000 bombing missions that the Hamas military structure is fucked? 70000 deaths as well. The world stopped giving a fuck about Palestinian children long ago!
I know I have been swearing a lot more recently – but the world is fucked up, there are too many pricks with penis envy ruling the people sphere.
