Starting to wonder if the world is fixable. Just endless problems everywhere you look, and mostly just cringe morale-booster ads on the other side celebrating people fighting rearguard actions 🤔

More people are better off today than at any point in history, and average life expectancy is up in more places than not. Why so doom and gloom?

Can't fix something that's never been finished.
Nature (humans included) is a WIP.

I struggle(d) with this for a while. I think our best hope is Heat death of the universe.

Life is geared towards survival, not fixing things. It's just an endless duct-tape-and-chewing-gum series of proximate solutions to insoluble problems.

The implications of 2016 were a trapdoor and now you're in the whitewater of historic currents. Very little chance of getting back without a great man (not on the horizon).

Fixing the world is an inherently rearguard-action frame. Instead, gotta work on building new bits of world. Lay the track in front of the train.
