      Rational concerns about the very real impending ecosystem collapse vs irrational concerns like a bear attacking me in my living room. I do not live in an area with bears. To be clear I’m not actually concerned about bears necessarily but my body is in full fight or flight survival mode while I’m just trying to catch up on my shows.

        Yeah this, but most of society seems to happy to ignore those very real and rational existential threads.
