      Being born in the late 1900s sucks. Young enough to remember nature existing, too young to have fully appreciated it.

      I miss the birds I'd hear at 6 am after a marathon runescape session circa 2008. I miss lizards. I miss bugs. I miss seeing life during my day but I didn't care about it when I could.

        Don't worry, the kids born in the 2020s will have vastly more wildlife than the next generation dubois-finger-guns

          I'm Australian.

          I have bees. Less birds over the last year, they're not as vocal anyway. A far cry from flocks of cockatoos that I grew up hearing all night. Its not as bad outside the cities.

      I remember needing to clean a windshield almost everytime I drived.
