No, I’m not talking about global pandemics. I’m not even talking about whether boorish billionaire boffins should launch themselves on priapic projectiles into low Earth orbit instead of, well, doing anything else that’s not as insane and selfish. I’m not talking about [insert whatever is your most bonkers belief here]. I’m not talking about mystery seeds from China, whether Subway bread is bread and tuna is tuna, whether we’re living in the time of the apocalypse (or it’s just around the next blind corner), or even anything and everything the Royal Family is doing....
