And do not take this personal.

Human denial or not even wanting to know due to being cowardly or too busy chasing the toys, is what is the most disheartening.

Looking upon the stray cat who has wandered into place here, and knowing it does not know anything about the fuel pool or the economy of the world, but only knowing that it has food and shelter, for now, and is therefore happy, makes me think most humans are no better.

Which is a shock, because i always thought that we better.
