we also talked to an old lady who's important to the church but just hadn't really went over to us yet. she grew up in philly some typa african american puerto rican, moved to puerto rico eventually, then came back later. her whole thing was that american churches are slowly dying, she didn't know true worship till puerto rico, and she wanted to get everybody to perform on stage sometimes, including us, believing god would bring any missing music ability and didnt want professional sound anyway. she sung all this information to us rather than speaking it, which was ofc delightful. she bonded with mom over homeschooling as she had to do that to teach her kids both english and spanish in puerto rico.
as we left she suddenly pointed at me and told my mom "make this one hug me, he's the one of you i always watch move around. i don't know, there's just something about him!" so i hugged her, and then as we went home, my family revived an old joke. when i was a kid, there were quite a few times when random strangers in turkey would come up and hand me money, sometimes crossing streets and chasing us down to do so, so my family joked about using me as a missions org mascot, raising tons of money via most randos finding me a particularly cute kid (or being drawn to intangible aura, as the joke seemingly shifted to in lieu of me not being a cute little kid anymore)

Earth's ice is melting: Where and how fast?
Melting glaciers and ice sheets are raising sea levels while the Arctic is poised to log one of its worst winters on record.

Went to see Stuart Goldsmith doing his work in progress stand up show about the climate at the local theater.
He's a funny man and has a good friendly personality (or stage-persona at least I guess) and is terrified and anxious and angry about the way the people are treating the world without out even being their fault.
It's a good show, he's a good guy, you should go see him do it at Edinburgh or whenever he's in your town.
No action you can take as an individual really makes much difference to the end of the world stuff. You should be vegan perhaps, ethical banking perhaps. But really the only thing that works is mass social pressure, so talking about it is the best thing you can do. If you can't be vegan, at least say you are.
Perhaps telling everyone on linked-in to book him for their climate sessions is best he reckons 😆 but I don't do corporate social media at all really, so Mastodon and cross post to Bluesky is the best thing I can do perhaps.
Stu's a friend of a friend, we've met before. Don't think he recognized me sitting in the front row without context against the stage lights though. Maybe a little at the end with some context when he's rushing to get home.
Still love that Captain Pike hairdo.
