KIM (and Brent, Telmo of course) what should we call * " W E I R D "* ???
Is this an epitheton for our 'unusual'? or 'unruly'? or 'disorderly'? I detected that the 'weirdness' (whatever you define it by) of the World smoothened up as I got older and older. I have more understanding N O W (in my 90s) for other peoples' shenanigens than I had when I was 30-40 (50-60? (70-80) or even younger?) I just want one thing to make sure: to finish this (surely deteriorating existence of mine) while I am in control, consciously and in possession of my logical decisionmaking. This is NOT a suicidal wish, this is a reasonable ending of a long, successful working and loving life before becoming a vegetable to satisfy the financial needs of goalkeeper strangers. paid for keeping my 'biology' churning. Unfortunately medics and clerics are not understanding in such matters and the established law gives them the power to arrange for MY exit. I would transcribe your 'the world getting weirder' into DETECTING more weirdness as we get older (= widen our fact-based horizon). Whatever 'weird' may mean.
