Gandy Beach (also known as Redneck Beach) is changing
There's a lot on my mind today. I imagine I'm not the only one who thinks a lot. I'm trying to stay focused on my personal goals, desires, and the garage sale I'm running today and tomorrow, but as I sit here sipping soda and smoking cigarettes, I can't help it, I'm thinking about lots of things that may or may not be any of my concern.

COP27 Climate Summit: Some Key Statistics on Risk and Investment Trends
As Egypt hosts the most important sustainability event of the year, COP27, the Middle Eastern country is pushing hard on making the summit about decarbonization implementation as opposed to climate commitments. However, given the weak global economy, high inflation, and geopolitical instability, we should not expect many breakthroughs coming out of this year's summit. The over 100 countries participating will be negotiating the establishment of the Damage and Loss Fund (a fund to finance damage and losses suffered by most vulnerable countries), as well as the $ 100 billion yearly investment commitment for developing countries to address their climate adaptation and mitigation priorities. Nobody expects much progress on either front given the limited political capital of the largest polluting countries as well as the weak budget space to fill the climate financing gap.

Neanderthals possibly extinct because of sex, not violence
There is a small amount of evidence suggesting Neanderthals did not inherit human genes, despite the fact that about 2% of the genomes of all living humans outside of Africa come from Neanderthals. According to a recent study, the number of Neanderthals who may have reproduced sexually with one another decreased as a result of possible interbreeding with our forebears. Their final demise would have resulted from that.

Hunt For Habitable Ocean Worlds Beyond Our Solar System
The hunt for habitable ocean worlds outside our solar system has several goals and many different scientific objectives. One of those goals is to search for biosignatures, which could indicate a past or present presence of life on another world. Currently, robotic missions are being considered to look for biosignatures on outer planets. In 2004, NASA formed the Outer Planets Assessment Group to determine scientific priorities and pathways for exploration of the outer solar system.

Today’s Tribute to the Rain
Rain, rain, come my way, do not wait another day. It’s been a very dry summer and fall until now. Finally, the rain has started to fall in the last few days, and I am very grateful for all the plants, that now finally they receive the water they needed to thrive.

Dragon Child Distress Chronicles
There was no moon tonight. All eight of them seemed to be hiding behind the Jander World for some reason. Maybe they were hiding because they sensed some impending chaos or doom and did not want to be party to it. A kind of disclaimer, so to speak. It didn't matter. they would have to answer for it anyway. Zearbar would see to it. Then punish them accordingly. As I peered toward Jandar World I could see flickers and light pulses coming from behind it and this concludes that I am right about my assumption. They were hiding. I then softly whispered to Jealith, the largest moon. "Whatever the event will be, we need a witness. Take your place and give coverage." Slowly, Jealith crept out from behind the large planet and took up a place in the dark sky. I then looked back at Jandar World to see the other moons peeking.

Falling Apart in the Great Outdoors
Because even dust can eventually scratch glass, there is always the question of balancing rest and movement. Stay still too long, the body doesn’t work. Move around too much, the body falls apart. Making decisions on best practices for health and maintenance while disabled is a complex, frustrating, disheartening subject I still can’t sort out. I struggle with the unpredictable nature of Ehlers Danlos Syndrome even twelve years after confirmation from a genetic test. I have no set trajectory with no percentages to comfort or devastate me. It’s the not knowing that breaks me down.

There's Always Going to be Another Mountain: Or is there?
I became absolutely fascinated, utterly enthralled by mountain climbing at some point in my late childhood. Having always been a devout reader, I picked up a copy of Peak by Roland Smith at the Scholastic Book Fair, and I was sold. Although the book is a work of fiction, mountain climbing is very real, and many of Peak’s experiences in Roland’s story were based on real events, places, and real emotions that one would feel if one were in his shoes. So then, who exactly are the Peak Marcello’s in the real world?

A Story of Earth
Long before the creation of time there was a small flower floating through the darkness. This flower was alone in the world and knew not where to go. One day this flower decided to spread out its spores into the darkness. So, as the spores flew out into the blackness of the void they nested into place and so created the suns of the universe and by extension the first remnants of time.
