Imperial Olympic grandeur, but as vacant nostalgia. Israeli economy crashing. Trump backed in a corner. Sahel states uniting. Commercial real estate crisis reaching terminus. Ukraine about to cede. Polish EU infighting. Chinese Thorium reactor beginning construction. Record breaking global heat averages. Argentinian economy in free fall. Covid surging. Personal credit debt at record high. General strikes planned in various countries. Idk, a number of things. Just feels like there are a lot of fast moving trains at different angles that are crashing into one another, and those bundles are about to collectively crash into each other. Are we on the station, in the train, or at the cliff?
