Doomsday Clock stays at 90 seconds to midnight

For those of you with a morbid interest in the life expectancy of the human race, this article by the good old BBC about the doomsday clock will be of great comfort. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-68017445

That article describes how the doomsday clock counts down towards midnight when the world will end for us humans. This is discussed amongst an international team and takes many things into consideration. Typically famine, flood, drought, war, disease and the such like. Clearly it has been affected by our not-so-good friend Vlad the Invader of Russia.

Let’s be clear here, the potential use of atomic weaponry as threatened by Vlad the Invader is the main driver here. This blog does not directly express any views on world events. It is here to pass unbiased comment for your consideration and occasional humour.

In the free west, the invasion of the Ukraine by mad Vlad the Invader was his choice. It was his choice to Murder thousands of innocent Ukrainians and indeed his own soldiers. Ukraine is a member of the UN, it is a sovereign state in its own right. Mad Vlad though wants to rebuild the USSR and so he wants all the Baltic states back.

The the oppressed east, that part of the world which is rules by the autocratic Mad Vlad the Invader, the west is portrayed as the aggressor, slowly taking over Russian territory, despite the fact that those countries voted to leave the Russian dictatorship when communism collapsed in 1991. So Mad Vlad decided by himself to start a war, disguised as a ‘Special Military Operation’. In his view, it was not an invasion, merely a retaking of what was already his.

There we have it then, 15 minutes to the doomsday clock countdown AKA the end of the world. Oh wait.. that’s how long it took to read this article.

Damn!
