A thing that I have not seen mentioned is that if Biden dies or becomes infirm due to extreme oldness in office, you will get President Harris, and you could do a lot worse, frankly.

If Trump dies from the oft-fatal combination of Adderall and cheeseburgers, you will get whichever bloated, decaying, monster is about to bob to the surface of the cesspool of candidates.

Both of these scenarios are totally possible.

I was surprised by all the negative criticism received of the funny and thought-provoking book “A City on Mars” by the ever-insightful @ZachWeinersmith. I couldn’t understand why some people were so angry at the “wait and go big” conclusions that the authors drew, quite reluctantly, from the evidence—or lack thereof—that they found.

The idea that if we can terraform Mars, we can even more easily terraform Earth, is an obvious conclusion, but one that really seemed to bother some people.
