Just about every time period sucks
The only time period that was enjoyable was only enjoyed by a small portion of the global population at any one time
Many people on this thread like to point out the 80s, 90s or early 2000s were great ... it is true for only about maybe 10% of the global population ... the rest were living with developing nations with very little and everyone still struggling like they always had
The world has always been the same throughout history ... I'm guessing about 70% of the population lived just enough to get by ... 29% lived with absolutely nothing ... and 1% lived with everything
And it's still the same today.
as someone from a developing nation, the good ol days were good because i was a kid.
i think thats the theme here.
We are a boring, dumb, ugly species on a boring, dumb, ugly planet in a boring, dumb, ugly universe.
You were spot on with the species.
Absolutely and in all ways incorrect about the planet, or universe.
That’s just your boring, dumb, ugly human brain tricking you into thinking that.
Absolutely flawless logic.
Checkmate, humans!
