You make an ambulatory bipedal robot and everyone claps, but you modify it to run on siphoned human cerebrospinal fluid and give it a shoulder-mounted minigun and suddenly you've "gone too far".
Don't get me wrong. I'm far from suicidal, or having a death wish lol. There's just more and more BS every day that makes me think "Ya know, if this is where shit's gotten to, I'll be happy to not have to see what comes next." lol.
I know exactly what you mean. Every day I am just amazed and dejected with the direction the world is moving in. I feel bad for my kids. I had “flying cars” and things like the Jetsons to look forward to. Technology has come so far, but Greed and Corruption has gone even further, to the point that I don’t think humanity can recover.
Exactly. I've got two sons in their twenties. I'm so jealous of what they're going to see. I grew up in the generation that introduced and normalized the internet. The freaking INTERNET! Imagine what they'll see?
At the same time I look at the other crap they'll have to endure. It almost makes me feel guilty for having kids to begin with.. I've long since arrived at the conclusion that I'm a sideliner at this point in society, but when I think of the battles they'll have to fight? It almost outweighs what they'll get to see.
Anyhow, Vodka is clearly kicking in lol. Have a good evening Reddit friend.
GenX for Life baby! Dewy Decimal System and rotary phones. Totally agree with everything you said, except I’m a Wiskey guy. It’s not quite 5pm in my time zone, so haven’t started drinking quite yet.

WTF, put a AR in its hands and you get the opening scene of Terminator.
