“For 1.5 degrees we’d have to cut emissions by 75% by 2030, not 26-28% or 43 or 50%. And we’d have to be net zero by 2035.” - Alan Kohler

Yep, resentment is a powerful force and the strangest collection of highly privileged people seem to suffer from it - Putin, Murdoch, Trump, Steve Bannon, Mitch McConnell, …It’s just hard to figure what they resent so deeply. The freedom of others to tread lightly in the world?

The combined profits of the largest energy companies in the first quarter of this year are close to $100 billion. This grotesque greed of the fossil fuel industry and their financiers is punishing the poorest and most vulnerable people, while destroying our only home.

1/15 Hi! Don't laugh, but I'm back in the SHU. They let me out Sunday night, and Monday afternoon they locked me up again, making no secret of the fact that I won't be getting out of this hole again. I finally know what I'm in jail for though! In this regard, a little statement.

Just a reminder that former vice president Aaron Burr was arrested and indicted for treason in 1807 for betraying American interests to foreign powers for personal gain. This was after he stood in the middle of 5th Avenue (Weehawken, NJ) and shot somebody (Alexander Hamilton).

Stole my daughters copy (thanks auntie Sally) and listened to it on Audible over Christmas, Bridgid. Absolutely fantastic distillation of the best philosophy for living. Have been boring everyone with its virtues. Now Resolved to practise stoicism in 2023.
