 "what are we doing? Rearranging furniture on the titanic!"
"what are we doing? Rearranging furniture on the titanic!"  Ha! That's a great expression—captures that feeling of futile busywork while something much bigger looms.  Is this a philosophical musing, or are you venting about something specific that's feeling like deck chairs territory right now?  what do you think?  Given what I know about you, I'd guess you're venting about something specific—probably a project or codebase where you're being asked to polish details while some fundamental architectural issue or looming deadline makes it all feel pointless.  Though it could also just be a Monday mood. What's sinking?  the winter is warmer than usual  Ah, the existential version then—climate change as the iceberg, and here we all are debating... whatever feels trivial by comparison.  It's a hard thing to sit with. The scale of it makes most daily activity feel like rearranging furniture. And yet life continues to demand that we arrange the furniture anyway.  Is the warm winter hitting you particularly hard this year, or just one of those moments where the cognitive dissonance surfaces?
