Xmas Cheer

We take the dogs through a walk. The sky is blue above our heads, the sun is shining, there’s a bit of a breeze.

Ah, Xmas celebrations are in full swing. The place is full of annoying types, clearly from elsewhere in the city, being loud and drunk.

Because our area is a destination of choice now a days, the streets are over run by obnoxious people being loud, people, people, people. Oh, so many people, who are only interested in themselves, fuck everyone else, they just don’t give a shit, and you know what, it just makes me feel that I am so not interested in them.

I mean, as a race of people. 

(Oh yes, sure, you could mount an argument for me moving somewhere else, there is that, but I have lived here for a long time, going back to when it wasn't the place those following fashion thought of as fashionable. And, you know, there is a part of me who thinks it is exciting, so deal with that contradiction, a very small part. It's just that I see a lot of behaviour that the people who are committing it wouldn't accept in their own back yard, which is irritating. I'm just being irritated, sometimes you just have to feel it)

Then wild thoughts just materialise in my brain. Why would it be so bad if the human race ceased to exist? Really. The human race is the main threat to every other species on the planet. If humans ceased to exist, every other species on the planet would have a much better chance at survival. Every other species is under threat of extinction because of us. We are the problem. (A lot of that threat is due to our over population)

And facing the existential threat that we are facing, there are as many people fighting to save us, as there are denying the problem to stop any interference to their indulgent lives. Not sure how they think that is going to end?

No other species shits in its own nest, like we do.

We are the threat to every other species on the planet. It is true. What else is true, is that the planet would be far better off without us.

(The reason I have such thoughts is not because I wish it to happen, because I don't, some of my best friends are, after all, but because I don’t think the human race is going to survive, there are too many people actively working against that survival for their own selfish reasons, so I find it easy to have these thoughts, as I think our demise is now inevitable)
