Where is the Planet Sergeant ?

I was wondering now there is a very clear genocide in progress in Sudan and Northern Nigeria, will the planet sergeant sail there and protest. She told us we have stolen her childhood and she is full of anger. When will she sail out there? 
The streets are empty, no one is going out to protest. There are no crowds gathering outside the Nigerian embassy or the Sudanese one. Nothing. 

I guess outrage is selective. 

I feel frustrated, I feel like I can't do anything about it because I'm  just an ordinary man. I can only write down the truth and hope people will wake up. I hope other leaders will speak up.

The First Third of November

One third of November has passed by, there has yet to be frost in the morning here in my part of Britain and feeling frustrated is normal. There is an ongoing genocide happening throughout the world. Thousands of Christians are being killed every month in Nigeria and countless others are being killed in Sudan for being Christian or "too black?"'. I can't do anything about it. The President of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu is downplaying the genocide; this isn't the '90s, everyone has smart phones, they all have advanced cameras in their pockets as an accessory and they share their persecution with the world, I see pastors standing in mass graves calling out for help, I see body bags and blood stained burned out churches. What can I do? the only thing I can do is write down the truth and hope we can stop this crisis. Being frustrated is pointless when I know I can't do anything other than share the truth. Even when Donald Trump spoke out, social media was peddling a view of a oil lobbyist with his own interests. He's a brave man, he must have known many would react that way. I hope that other leaders stand up and speak up. 
I distract myself. I look at things. I was looking at a coffee coloured coat, it had a hood at the back and some zipped pockets. I thought it looked very nice and the price was quite low. I read through all the reviews. I look at things to stop feeling frustrated sometimes, other times it is a way to stop feeling angry or stressed.

What April 2023 means to me

April 2023 started off as a typical April, lots of little spring time storms plus a mixture of hot and cold spells. The days were getting longer and in the middle of the month it was my son's 4th birthday. 
A civil war broke out in Sudan. Sudan is a country in East Africa that sits next to Egypt on the coast of the red sea opposite Saudi Arabia. They have a long history of military coups and civil wars unfortunately. I wish them a peaceful future. I think it was the paramilitary fighting the standard military. Two different military groups were fighting for control of government infrastructure, airports, central banks and ports. 

Towards the end of April I learned that Tucker Carlson was suspended from the fox news network. His removal from the show seemed to be a reaction to his speech he gave during the weekend before he was fired. He wants people to pray more and thinks abortions as a whole are evil and things like that. 

A few things were overlooked, they tested a new emergency alert system here in the UK but it didn't work properly, in my experience when that happens it's because the government were approaching friends or family for the contract. They possibly weren't using public bidding. When a government needs special hardware or services, they should allow private companies to bid for the contract and somehow prove they're competent. Not just approach a friend or family with connections. I'm not saying that is the truth though, only that government project failures are usually down to that. 

The other thing I noticed is many autocratic nations are banding together to share resources and currencies. They're trying to create an alternative market to the west. They're creating an eastern resource trading and power center. Perhaps the dollar will no longer be a global reserve currency in the near future.
