The revolution is nigh, the sea of power has shifted, and now the lunar pull has commenced its new period.

Alas, a new age has dawned upon this corner of the etherverse, a new American age wherein the primary discussion topics will include blockchain, craft beer, and, lets see... particle physics. Yes, so it is proclaimed.

Nature wants to expend all the bad stuff first, like a fitness freak wants to drop fat

Saving the bioenergetically best for last?

 

[mixed_biscuits]

I hate to break this but the reason why people exist is because we hasten the onset of the entropically optimal grey mulch - little point fighting it
