As we countdown the last few days of the year, please take a moment to consider how beautiful, rich and detailed the world is.
In a video game this fence might well be pristine, or maybe rust and moss would just be drawn on the surface but out in the world, each patch of green moss is fully 3D and, if only we looked, filled with tiny insect, and even tinier, microbial life.
On the other side of the park is a similar railing, but it has the remains of three or four layers of different colour paint, peeling and bubbling, and little moss, but much more lichen.
Every exposed surface in the city has some measure of similar complexity, and this is without even entering the park, or digging into the ground.
Life is wonderful, and we, you and me, being here to see it is a miracle, and as a total non-believer I use that word deliberately, if carefully.
May your 2026 be filled with childlike wonder.

2/5 We assessed changes in 3 key biodiversity dimensions (#richness, #composition, and #homogeneity) between ~50K reference communities and 50K human-impacted communities, focusing on major #human #impacts (habitat change, pollution, climate change, resource exploitation, invasive alien species)
The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer.
Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer.
We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is.
It will never reach you.

“Biomass measured as above- and below-ground terrestrial carbon storage (tonnes of carbon per hectare) for c. 2010…
Species Richness is the number of species ranges estimated to occur in each grid cell…”

And whoosh! It is November, reminding us that summer is over, & the year will be over shortly. Time to capture the richness of colors, of life, of time well spent.

Be careful to decribing any job as "sh!t". If they are in fact such, perhaps ask the question, why isthat the case.
Imagine if you liked cooking and serving great food.
Imagine if you lived above a cute little retail shop and when someone makes the door bells ring to have a look around it excites you whether they buy something or not. You pop down the stairs to see if you can help them find what they need.
You may not need to "work hard" to have #richness.
#BeHUMAN, don't be a computer!
We are conditioned to look for #simple answers, we want #stability, #truth and the ability to distinguish between "right" and "wrong".
Respecting the #richness of our divers (and now more connected) world, requires us to widen our #perspectives and deal with more options - in the end, that makes us #superior to computers, which are limited to 0 or 1, right?
