humans being bad to humans

[mckitterick]

Okay, changing my daily routine. Turned off the noon-time NPR news show for probably the first time ever. When I feel like this, it's just a bit too much to listen to reports from Iraq - like the bomb-defuser who was targeted and blown up for being good at his job... in front of a hospital.

Why isn't there any good news? Why are humans so awful to one another? Why should we want to save the human species when it's so intent on destroying itself, rotting away its core?

Off to nap for an hour before the competition.

Good News NEVER sells or moves by itself

In the news tonight,
greater than 98% of the worlds population
had the sort of day they were expecting,
and ended the day being pretty satisfied
with their expectations having been being met or possibly exceeded.

What?!?!?
No one cares about that shit?
*SIGH*
OK,
Run the scary footage that makes our lower brains focus on the newsfeed long enough to attach an related level of importance to the proximal advertisement.
