Doomed

We are doomed. (ps. to the unitiated, look for John Laurie)

"Pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will" is a phrase often attributed to Gramsci but in fact one he borrowed from Rolland.

Nevertheless, it requires further balance. Maybe optimism is merely naive human hope and endeavour?

Paradox prefers the following "Pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will, fatalism of the inevitable"

And Paradox would like to append the word 'extinction' to the end of his version.

Why so dreary? All will be revealed tomorrow, in the meantime this picture provides a clue.
