so much sadness

the washington post calls it the saddest graph you'll see today and it very well may be, though graphs about starving children are pretty sad too... the point is, i turned off my facebook account and stopped browsing the internet because it is too depressing... and yet, i don't want to live with my head in the sand because, as the old quasi-chinese saying goes, he who live with head in sand makes buttocks vunerable or the other one, he who lives with head in sand shows world shitty smile or even the other other one, he who lives with head in sand appears to world as asshole or he who lives with head in sand makes asshole smile at world, but we may be getting distracted with semantic games... it's potentially more depressing (not to mention dangerous) to stop looking and turn a blind eye (or back) on a very dangerous situation, or world, even...

and who cares, right?... well we all care, of course, it would be inhuman not to care... unfortunately it is very human not to do anything about it... caring is not a verb for most humans... and that may be the saddest fact of all...

how was your day?...
