You can devote yourself single-mindedly to a career and enjoy the struggle to the top. You can decide that to ride the ebb and swell of New York’s changing moods is worth whatever price you pay. You can pledge your life to your craft or the cause of Monarch butterflies. You can turn down invitations to weddings and let friendships lapse, you can go to bars every night and smoke a pack of cigarettes a day. But whatever you do, don’t kid yourself that you’re doing it because you have no choices.

Forget it, @Dirt_Owl . They're New York columnists. :doomer:
:posadist-nuke: The aliens will give us low-yield nuclear devices that can destroy the NYT headquarters without affecting the surrounding structures.
Do you think they'd trust anyone on Earth to do the nuking themselves, after seeing the mess with everything else?
