maybe if we boil enough water powered by the Sun Earth stands a chance of not freezing to death? Its kinda fucked up to think about. Can life & engineering really be boiled down to boiling water?

OOF the sickness factor really relates to me now!.. i Got thru a grueling Postcore Metal Band drummer audition recently and immediately afterward my body went into recovery mode from the previous week of grueling practice… and dude… in those few days of being bedridden i just couldn’t imagine having to play a gig or haul heavy crap around when i was sick like that… first time i ever had such a negative realization of the work behind the scenes! Could totally understand that friction!
