The Aztecs believed that Hummingbirds were spirits of fallen warriors.

This made me imagine Dracula running off giggling like a kid. We need another version where it’s the vampire, wolf man and the mirror and the vampire is stirring the pot.

Reading this, and remembering the context of the source material, my thoughts deviated to our present day problems. I can’t help but ask myself, “how can humans hate each other and commit the atrocities we do to other ppl?” Especially for totally pointless shit like skin color or what they would like to be called ffs. I had a thought that those ppl are presented with the struggle of life and misplace their angst at the prospect of the daily challenge of self improvement. They don’t hate ppl for the little things, not really, they just don’t know how to use their inner conflict productively.

I love Star Trek for stirring these thoughts. Thank you for your posts Stamets. Peace and long life 🖖🏻
