A four-hour mental health session for climate anxiety caused by the climate emergency was scheduled for today at MIT:
The emergency.mit.edu web site, yesterday afternoon:
I.e., the folks who needed four hours of therapy because of their anxiety caused by the ongoing climate emergency suffered the cancelation of their therapy due to the climate emergency that had caused their anxiety in the first place. #irony?
I rescheduled my JetBlue flight from yesterday afternoon to Saturday night. Here’s our front yard yesterday as the snow was ramping up throughout Maskachusetts:
One weatherman in our community said, “This is going to be a storm you will remember the rest of your life. (Repent now!)” Ho, hum a little ice and sleet. Our daffodils just grew out through it over the weekend. Our power is more likely to go out because some drunk idiot hits a power pole or some crank-head hillbilly shoots up a substation.
So indeed, I was wrestling with (externally induced) climate anxiety. Visiting climatewayfinding.earth leads to a network of cleverly disguised book ads. Now I have MLM anxiety. I guess they/their therapy works. Thanks, Phil.

Phil, I love the free lunch that is included. Also, are Maria and Elise Hotties? When is the make-up “class”?Comprende?
Back in the old days, we shoveled snow with hardly any protective clothing. Compare that to today: almost everyone either uses a snow blower while wearing heated gear, or hires a company to do it for them. And if that is not enough, weather prediction back than, was far less accurate, yet people went on with their lives without constantly complaining.
