And all of this has been public knowledge for a long, long time, long enough that anyone paying tithes to the Catholic Church is scum.

Perhaps I live in a bubble of pessimism, but — isn't the looming collapse of civilization well-known, and essentially a certainty?

Well, nobody certainly didn't see that coming.

It was probably never true, but for many years I foolishly thought that 'bankruptcy' meant 'going out of business.' That's what it means if a mom-and-pop restaurant or shop declares bankruptcy. When companies get ginormous, though, they never go away. Rite Aid will 'reorganize' itself with fresh investors, and it'll still be a shitty drug store long after everyone reading this is dead.

This is a worry and problem I've never had and don't really understand. One of the joys of social media (including the fediverse) is that you're judged by what you say and who you are, not what you look like. As a lifelong fat slob and general ugly person, I appreciate that.

Jamie Dimon is a wealthy old fart who never worked a day in his plush lazy life. What he says interests me less than analyzing my neighbor's dog's poop as its eaten by bugs.

Then it has to be better.

And maybe some time before he dies, let Zayn Al-Abidin Muhammad Husayn out of this American dungeon.
