Those of us lucky enough to live in middle and upper class lifestyles in advanced economies are wrapped up in artificial Disneyland bubbles of our own creation.

Life on average isn't sipping morning lattes, taking trips to the beach, or attending Pilates class. It's a brutal dog eat dog game of energy being captured and exploited. Life being snuffed out and chemicals being digested and repurposed.

A level higher, the physics of solar birth and death, asteroid impacts, and cosmic radiation are blind, uncaring, and absolute.

Our modern and luxurious experiences have been very short lived and do not reflect the typical animal life on earth.

Nature is brutal. It's really quite something to marvel at.
