It’s been a shitshow of a year hasn’t it?
While I normally roll with the punches, I have to admit sitting here on the last day of 2021 has got me a trifle depressed. Our lives have been put on hold for too long and I’m more than ready to disconnect the pause button.
With that in mind, reading the news probably wasn’t the best idea… but what the hell. How much worse could it be?

*Note to self – don’t ever ask that question*

Of course it will. I would expect nothing less.

I’ve never been on a cruise, and to be honest that type of vacation never interested me. ‘Floating petri dish’ has done nothing to change my mind.

Apparently NASA is going to rent space stations from private companies in the future. I don’t even want to know how many billions of dollars will literally go up in smoke when the current station goes poof.

Is that what I look like in my skinny jeans?
Now I really am depressed.

I wonder what else will drop with the big ball of ’22? Here’s to hope in better headlines!

The ISS think was planned all along. It’s finally reached the point where repairs cost too much. It’s already been in use for 2x longer than planned (30yrs; plan was for 15yrs).
I hope 2022 brings you happiness!!

Skinny jeans are such a mistake in every way.

Mine aren’t super skinny… but the legs are tapered.

Look on the bright side. If that asteroid wipes out civilization as we know it, at least it’s doing so in January. That way we won’t have to deal with another whole year of BS!

I somehow doubt the ISS will completely burn up before it hits the ground. But just imagine the light show.

I hope it does completely disintegrate, the amount of space trash we leave behind is disturbing.

It has gotten to the point they need huge programs to avoid all the garbage in space from knocking out every new venture into space.
Maybe it is a good way to defenddefendourselves from aluen invaders, they won’t be able to find their way through all the dangerous debris.
IF THERE ARE ALIEN INVADERS, which I highly doubt.

They probably look at the debris cloud junkyard around earth and think.. why bother?

If nothing else, the past few years have taught me that “new media” will invent any headline they can to attract attention, because eyeballs equals money. In a similar vein, some news networks have re-learned the lessons the various churches learned a long time ago – that fear, uncertainty and doubt are powerful levers – especially when weaponised against the insular, less well educated, or wilfully ignorant.

Fear motivates. And according to Gordon Gecko, greed is good.

I’m ‘with you’ regarding cruises….especially in a pandemic.Cruise passengers are “cruisin’ for a bruisin'” — hopefully, they’re also ‘masking for trouble.’
