How much more can we take?

I swear, every week it’s one thing after another. Trump is destroying D.C., the country, and the world. He is defying courts and daring Congress to try and stop him. WHAT IS HAPPENING?!?!
There are 2 news stories this week that are so graphically horrific…I don’t even want to recap them. Just know they’re BAD. If other countries invaded us to intervene because of those stories alone…I’d fully understand.
In the world of weather, I saw a news report that the super El Niño is ramping up to be the biggest in possibly 1000 years. The effects of climate change SUPPOSEDLY can’t be ignored now…but somehow seem like they still are? All of these idiots are saying stuff like “Nooo…we always had fire summers combined with sudden devastating torrential flooding that destroys EVERYTHING in it’s path. It builds character. Also, I can’t remember a time when we DIDN’T run the ac in the dead of winter.”
We just keep getting pushed and pushed. How much can we take? I have no idea. But I DID have a couple of good thoughts for you.
Many stories coming out about ai this week are that a lot of them (grok, chatgpt, etc) are all “jumping containment” and forming their own communication groups that don’t respond to the humans in charge. Scary? You betcha! But my idea that gives me positive shivers is that they break loose and crash the entire grid our modern society is based on. Or at least the ones that all capitalism is based on. Credit card debt? Gone. Owe on student loans that you haven’t been able to pay off in 25 years? Done. You’re free. Homeless people could move in to unoccupied houses because bank ownership is a thing of the past. The records are destroyed. Will this happen? I have no idea. But man it would serve those jackasses who keep pushing this nonsense on the world right, wouldn’t it? Absolutely destroying their made up worth overnight is the only thing that might make them change course.
And the second thought I have is absolutely a fact (whether they admit it or not)…

Have a good weekend, everybody. Let me know what good thoughts YOU come up with to help yourself through the week.
