   Noticing that much that is promoted as realistic and businesslike defies biological, ecological, physiological, and/or physical common sense (like schemes to get through a pandemic w/o public health investment or climate change without leaving coal oil and gas in the ground or to have art without channels by which artists can afford to live). Talk about magical thinking.
