A World In Disarray August 11, 2017August 10, 2017 Oh, gosh. Just what you wanted for an August weekend. Why not just a hurricane or something? But man up: here is the trailer for a world in disarray. Scarier still, the trailer for cyber warfare that could wreak havoc with your life — no electricity! no water! — without a single missile launched, or single terrorist within five thousand miles. Both are 30-minute episodes of HBO’s Vice. (Free trial if not already a subscriber.) And here is an analysis of Trump’s North Korea missteps. What a nightmare. My take-away from all this? Vote for competence and cooperation. (And for modernized, secure infrastructure — which will require paying taxes, not cutting them.) In the meantime, savor every minute. We have electricity . . . as only six of the previous ten thousand generations have had. We have hot water! Have a great weekend.
