With climate change, COVID, and war no longer on the horizon but at our front doors do you all also feel like you're living through the start of the end? I'm immunocompromised I can't go out even in small social circles, weather is insane, and everyone that is near the center is a war hawk. I feel like I'm screaming into the void but honestly I'm just scared and want to know I'm not alone in this feeling

    Yeah of course. It's just a pity, like any loss. Like if/when the vaquita dolphin goes extinct it'll still be sad, that's all I'm saying. It'll be nice that I won't be around to actually feel sad about it I guess lol.

      I don't know who said it originally, but contrary to popular opinion... pacifists are the angriest people on the face of the Earth. They've seen the cruelty woven into human society and reject it out of sheer disgust. At first I didn't get the idea, but seeing how the global ecosystem is disintegrating out of sheer apathy on the part of a powerful few people...

      yes, I understand that anger.
