Sunflowers 63

 There were no dust problems yesterday. Just a bit windy and the wind chills were uncomfortable. Today it is nice and calm. It will be sunny again. Of course, that means no rain. And that is not good. The vagaries of weather and disease are just functions of the PU, or Physical Universe. It takes elegant maths to describe it, but it is completely brainless and devoid of heart, soul, compassion, or any other quality we associate with sentience. The PU is as dead "inside" as a corpse. It's a kind of machine, blindly blundering on, casually extinguishing life as it goes, because, really, the PU isn't a good place for sentient beings. Amazing that there ARE any sentient beings. The PU generates them in a casual and senseless way, and snuffs them out in the same casual and senseless way. Life in the PU sucks, is what I'm trying to say... 

Sometimes I have definite Gnostic tendencies. And, by the way, the US has just gotten beyond 850,000 Covid deaths. I wonder how long it will take to reach 900,000? 1,000,000? The unvaccinated are definitely helping this process along.
