Humans, eh? They're everywhere, destroying habitats, polluting environments, creating a mass extinction event and shitting on the doorstep of the very biosphere which allows them to exist. And yet, it is humans who have the nerve to coin words like 'vermin', 'pest' and 'weeds' to describe other species which have the temerity to impact upon our lives and are deemed harmful or undesirable. We're a plague (Early readers of the post will have seen this typo'd as 'plaque'. That kinda works too). Killing or consuming all in the insatiable desire to be... what? More wealthy? More happy? More entertained? More vain? That's our mores, right there. Admittedly, a small number of humans recognise the stupidity of all the wanton overconsumption of resources, but this ship's gonna take more than that tiny number to turn around. Maybe the iceberg could envisage what was coming and decided to strike first? But enough of the rant, I have a confess...
