Relative Ends
Dec. 19th, 2021 11:15 pmI find it worth noting that while I have a lot of trouble reading the news and the catastrophic climate change predictions, I'm fine reading a book written by someone who does body recovery for mass death events.
On the other hand, I'm much less afraid of dying in a mass death event than I am of living through the climate disaster. It's more binary-- you die or you don't. It's being in the middle that scares me, the long days of anxiety and staring at the world and struggling for survival. Mass death events tend to be over one way or the other very quickly.
Or maybe I'm just desensitized by years of fascination with crime dramas. That's also a possibility.
