I mean, let's be real.

It's gonna get a whole lot worse.

I hope you're wrong. I really, really hope.

Yeah. Especially living in a society actively sliding towards some of the worst features described in some of the fictional worlds I enjoyed in novels coupled with a police state. It was never perfect, ever, but the amplification of the awful parts is really depressing.

This weekend I built a shed in my back yard, which was a nice bit of father-son bonding, and stockpiled ammo in case civil unrest causes widespread violence to break out in our neighborhood.

Definitely a strange vibe.

I'm just over here hoping we destroy ourselves for the benefit of the universe as a whole. We're a blight.

Isn't "everyone acting like it's normal" a dystopian nightmare trope?

Nope. Been a shadowrealm in the background for me forever. This added shitstorm has yet to play a part but I expect it to change soon enough

I see the housing bubbles all over the world and am glad I wasn't born 10 years later. I'm also screwed for not being born 10 years earlier.

Okay, sure, the Faro plague has consumed all of Eurasia, but have you considered seeing a therapist?

Well people aren't having kids anymore so I guess we're doing what we can

Every child that isn't born is a life saved.

... and a soldier less who dies in WW3

All day everyday

I hate the state of things, but what drives me crazy is pushing it in people's faces and still watching them go back to school and work and talk about whatever typical bullshit they're thinking about.
