Thinking like a Trump (1)
I want three things. 1) Demonstrate my own power over others. 2) I don’t see resisting Russia in Europe as important to my interests, so an end to US involvement in the fighting in Ukraine (peace is optional extra). 3) Access to rare earths.

“One of the salient patterns that emerges when one looks at the past two millennia of human civilisation is that periods of social instability and conflict coincide … with intervals when climate deviates even modestly from normal.”
Marcia Bjornerud, Timefulness, p132.

This is one of the most encouraging things I’ve read in ages www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
I was in despair about the environmental crisis. Then I volunteered to clean up my local park

Just reading an essay by Ursula le Guin (‘TGAN Again’) in which she points out that ‘a great American’ is always ‘a great American man’ unless otherwise specified. So, if ‘great’ = ‘male’, does ‘Make America Great Again’ really signify ‘Make America Male (dominated) Again’?
