this isn't wholly depressing. things will be fine for me and my ilk. i can go out and enjoy nature, casually enjoy luxuries unfathomable to almost ever other person that existed, spend time with friends and family. rome isn't burning yet. we were fortunate to be born at the american empire's apex and live through the decline. sure, there won't be another brooklyn bridge. no hoover dam. not for us. but if you're on xoxo you're not in the class that will truly suffer in our lifetimes. it's like seeing the first daffodil flower begin to wilt. oh well, that's it, at least we can enjoy what's left of the show! |
