@joy I couldn’t agree more.. we do need to be stewards of our beautiful planet!
@raincloud We might wish we had a spare Earth, but we'd probably just wreck it too.
(There used to be a bumper sticker that said, "Earth First! We'll screw up the other planets later")
Solar systems do not exist for eternity…
Species don't either... And it boggles the mind to imagine what humans might evolve into if we do last a billion years.
@ana too true…. We probably would not recognize a time-traveling “human” from our distant future if they landed in our backyard and gave us their version of a high five. It’s best to focus on how we can help each other and Gaia now.

You are quite right @iridium… I meant to reply to you rather than @ana… impermanence includes our species…
I dreamed about T tonight. I never usually dream about him. For any interpretation of the dream you might need to know that I live in Germany and he doesn't belong to my government. Dream: I had a date with T in the future, who would come to meet me. I could not escape the date. It was planned for me, that the two of us would go for a walk together along our beautiful coast. Like a future couple would do before a marriage, but this would not be like in modern relationships with even rights. Before the date, Trump was a very agile and strong man who was focused on an agenda from which also no one could escape. Because of his agility and focused agenda, I could guess in advance that he would walk really fast next to me, so fast that I would hardly be able to keep up. He wouldn't be unfriendly to me, but he would be focused only on himself and his agenda. As I prepared for the inevitable walk, everything in my life at home changed and became strange, even in my personal relationships. The pets' behavior became strange, too. They all acted as if they had gone mad. But then came the day of the arranged walk, and T didn't show up. There was no prior cancellation; he just didn't show up. Suddenly, it was clear that he would never actually come for a walk with me. After that, my life went back to normal, including the pets' behavior — even that went back to normal. I very much appreciated that everything returned back to normal in my life, and it was of no further interest in my dreams, why T didn't show up for a walk with me. I was just satisfied he'd never show up in my future, and that was all the knowledge I needed.
@joy Wow, that is something else, and what I saw. The size of that is just incredible.
Welp, now T wants to resume nuclear testing. Let me count the ways that can go wrong, especially since he's always going to the biggest bang possible. As Luke Skywalker once said, "I have a really bad feeling about this." Trump's Call To Resume Nuclear Testing
@pamp I believe it was Han Solo that said that line.
