Good to see you back Mike, after what seems like ages! I’m not sure about your interplanetary ideas though…!

We're all star dust wanting to be stars.

We certainly are all star dust; I dunno about wanting to be a stark except in the metaphorical sense of rising above current circumstances.

Or a star, even!

Well, I don't know what is so great about this. It just looks like development. My response to the video on U Tube was that it looks like what the "developed" world does or they are doing what every country in the world does. That basically always admire and try to emulate the United States. The U. S. is MUY F-cked up at present! (Very.... I spoke Spanish!)

So... yeah, I 'get' that this is what the Afghanis are doing but I am not sure where it will lead.

There are only challenges ahead, but I feel its important to challenge Western narratives such as black babies with flies.

"only challenges". Right. There are only a few persons that transcend the norm. Everyone else is predictable, and is that what we need. So, extrapolating that to the general society, maybe one person in a several thousand can be fully creative --- or fully challenging. I wish there were more outlets. Are any good books coming out---? -because, I do not see any bookstores where I am.

My downfall is that I haven't been reading books, only articles and podcasts amounting to 'bookfills'. I owe subscribers several reads, and it will probably take me the whole of January to do 'Whitney Webb - One Nation Under Blackmail' - though I may be more practical by walking daily with it as an audiobook. When I escape, it's foreign movies, but in that description they are also educative.

Yeah the fact is persons don't read books anymore.
