Environmental ethics has brought up some interesting things to talk about, but it is much less applicable than I thought it was going to be. Well, that sounds wrong. It is completely applicable to every aspect of life, which is why I like philosophy; but it is not at all like my Engineering Ethics class, where we are asked to look at ethical dilemmas faced by professional engineers.
But I digress; today I came upon a thought that can better articulate something I've been feeling lately, that nameless thing.
Regardless, I really don't want to talk about that right now. Last week was a long and exhausting week and this week is not much better. I had a nice panicked moment when I thought I had part of my final project due for economics, but it was the grad part of the class that did. *breathe*
Oh, it's supposed to snow heavily tomorrow. Hurrah! Maybe Girl Scouts will be canceled and I can regain some sanity time.
I've had some pretty bold-imageried dreams lately... I don't know if that's because of all the crap I've been eating and drinking, or the fact I'm not sleeping well, or what.
Everyone seems kind of on-edge, too... Not sure why, but it's rather worrisome.
Anyway, I have like seven emails to myself of links I've accumulated that I need to disperse. So, without further ado:
Cool military deceptions. I've always been intrigued by deception... The number of detective and spy books I read when I was in gradeschool was rather ridiculous, I'm sure.
Any UKers out there? I'm like 90% sure no, but just in case I am passing that on. It doesn't sound good.
The floating islands of Titicaca. So effin' sweet. I'm such an engineering dork.
I'm confused about what's going on here...? But both the Disney-capitalist and agnostic parts of me rather love it. Capitalism is crazy sometimes...
The Eight Weirdest Ways We'll Generate Energy in the Future. As an engineer who's been hearing about green design for a while now, most of those are not that "weird". Personally, the weirdest one is... tornadoes? I think I need a diagram to grasp the idea of this one.
Seven Phenomenal Wonders of the Natural World. I think I've linked this before, but I don't remember the sailing stones, and that's pretty amazing shit right there.
There are a lot of days I wish I could just be an explorer-naturalist. How badass of a job would that be?
Oh dude, and Neil Gaiman got a Newberry award! Congrats to him! Very deserved.
