When you’re young, you get impatient about all the old people hanging around ideas that interest you. A mix of deadwood, rent-seekers, one-trick-ponies selling their one tricks for decades, has-beens, never-was types, hoarders, squatters etc. All to be gotten out of the way...

Now I’m starting to see ideas from the other side. Youth as a brash, noisy, largely misguided force attacking the rear, much of which will never amount to anything, but poses a short-term threat. Growing from minor irritant to serious annoyance to Children-of-Corn death force.

It’s funny. Just when you think you’ve finally sorted out what’s important, figured out how the world works, decided what to care about, and have the resources to do something, energy starts to tank, resources get claimed by crap, and barbarian youth energy takes you down 🤣
