Drew Barrymore: Mother Earth Is an Estranged Wife Telling Mankind She’s Unhappy
Breitbart ^ | April 17, 2020 | David Ng

Posted on 04/17/2020 8:20:33 AM PDT by EdnaMode

The E.T. actress warned readers in a recent post on her personal blog that the Earth, like an unhappy wife, may one day decide to give up on its inhabitants who have failed to attend to her needs. But “if you take care of her, she will love you back,” she wrote.

Drew Barrymore is one of Hollywood’s most visible eco-activists, stumping for animal rights and advocating against animal-tested cosmetics. She has also launched the home goods line, Flower Home, and the beauty line, Flower Beauty, which market themselves as being both affordable and environmentally friendly.

In her blog post, Barrymore launched into a lengthy metaphor comparing Earth to an ignored wife who is contemplating calling it quits.

“What if one day, you had been married for many years, and your wife comes home and tells you she is unhappy. That it had been a long time since she was happy. She is thinking about leaving,” the actress wrote.

“You don’t go back to business as usual. Your whole life just changed. You are shaken to the core. This news haunts you everywhere you go. You are uncertain. This has completely invalidated your reality.”

I wonder why these deep thinkers never say such things during regular flu season during which many people die?

Lemme guess, she watched a movie on HBO streaming called “2012” where the dweeb president said almost the exact same thing. The movie was a paid political announcement for the global warming con.

For once, a celebrity might be on to something.

Earth: “Get all these dang Chinese people off of me! They’re ticking me off!”

A simile is like a metaphor that uses "like" or "as"

A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD’s, and all its fullness, The world and those who dwell therein.

I think this is best translated as

"Find a woman you can't stand. Buy her a house."

Maybe Mother Nature should have thought of that while she was besetting us with droughts, floods, and soy. Mother nature started the fight for survival, and now she wants to quit now that she’s losing.
