I'm old enough to remember. The most unsettling thing about it is that all the other people old enough to remember it as well seems perfectly settled about it.

I'm really sorry our ecosphere interfered with you enjoying your pointless consumerism.

Not your fault. Thanks though.

Right, the pointless consumerism of hiking on a trail made freely available thanks to the state's parks and rec and my taxpayer money. That consumerism. The selfish capitalistic urge to be outside more than an hour without needing to apply bug deterrent three times just so I can sit on my lawn in peace.

It brings me an odd feeling of comfort and joy to realize that in a couple decades, I might be even less exposed to such untenable individuals as:

  • social media will be dead
  • society may just collapse and natural selection will do it's bidding

Have a pleasant day

and natural selection will do it’s bidding

Then I guess you won't be around for long, eh?
