I still think the most eye opening part was watching the smog clear up in real time in India where the Himalayan mountains became visible again to many parts of the north
I saw so much wildlife in my city. Including a deer for once. Drunk ass me: well deer, looks like me the other essential workers and you inherited the earth.
Of course the bankers survived. Of course they would.
Yeps. Banks make no money if we keep it in paper in our wallet and big retailers don’t have to deal with the infrastructure to deal with paper money. Part of the reason why government economists want to ban all non-digital currency.
In the past governments banned people from owning gold. In the future they will ban us from owning paper currency. And pretty much for the same reason. There will be a financial system that you simply can not opt out of. You will need a bank and it will be one of the few remaining banks left after stress tests and corporate mergers finished the job 2007 started.

Same in Denver. It has never been that clear ever. That’s what I guess it could be like if we actually started to fight greenhouse gases for real.
And then animals started being seen a lot more around here.

Went up Lookout mountain and I doubt I’ll ever see that clear and far again towards Denver
It was just nuts. I’ll never forget it. I hope we see that again but i share your doubt.

The later this happens the better, fortunately we don’t live forever.
Dumb attempts to pull power away from governments and federal reserve’s really
The visibility in Bangkok was nuts. Normally I expect to see smog rising up by 7 every morning, but the skies were like Montana clear.
From where ?
