Why so serious? It's not like the entire fate of humanity is at sta... oh wait, right...:-(

No, I was just joking around (gallows humor, a desperate act to deal with the apocryphal events unfolding in our lifetimes) - but to be clear, I meant it be like alongside with you rather than at your expense. No worries, I do not think ill of you at all:-). (whereas if I thought you were a MAGA nut, I assure you I would not have responded at all:-) - there just would be no point to that) Sorry that I did not make that more clear.

Hahaha. All good, friend!

As someone that has a kid, I do hate what we’re doing to this planet and worry so much about what he and others in the future will have to put up with.

You would have to be an insane MAGA nutjob to not worry about that these days! There is more reason for hope than it seems though, as explained in this Kurzesagt video. We need to not get complacent... but there is still some hope.:-)
