These days, pearls are farmed and you can get half a dozen out of every large oyster if you do it right, but before farming, you had to open a few hundred of them to find one, and it’s those pearls I’m talking about, metaphorically speaking.
We now officially have over 8 BILLION humans on this little planet, so what I wonder, when looking through the lists of news articles, is how do you pick individuals out of the mass whose stories actually matter?
When I read about someone who Died Suddenly, it’s not news anymore even when it’s some famous celebrity, because so many are doing it now as the Vax continues to degrade immune systems and clog arteries. Likewise with airline pilots while flying and pro sports players in the middle of some game or activity, not to mention just newscasters in the middle of a story and actors on the stage, and so forth. It’s just common now.
Everything is common now. When you have so very many people, every imaginable drama has already been played out a dozen times. Nothing cheapens a thing like having way too much of it and that includes humans. The daily massacres in Chicago are boring, the rampant shoplifting by large, organized groups is boring, blacks pushing old oriental women in front of subway trains is boring, people getting surgeries to look like snakes and tigers is boring.
We have overpopulated ourselves into mass tedium.
