    There were some petitions to not let them back on earth... oh well.

    With the climate disasters we're facing, I cannot see any sense in their actions.

    Yeah, I'd expect them of all people in the world to give a fuck and do something about it, because they are actually in a position to...

    Totally split on this. Yes there is so much hunger and poverty in the world (something close to my heart) but on the other hand nothing grand or extravagant would ever happen if we always had this in mind.

    I'm wondering how Prince Andrew is going to get out of his Harvey Weinstein shenanigans. That's going to be an interesting court hearing if it ever happens.

    Most of the world's hunger problems are govt problems more than money problems. I don't like their business practices which have deleted a lot of small business and the middle class, but it's not like they could turn around and give their money away and make hunger go away. I wish it were that simple, but it's not. Got to fix warlord's and bad govt's around the world to fix the hunger issues that go with them

    I'm not sure if I should like or dislike that!

    But right... very smart thinking there. Technology is the savior. Let's go live on Mars as a quick fix.
