It would be nice to see the collapse discussed in real-time, but also have something to reference in the future as significant turning points.

      Sorry, I’m guilty of this. For me, my more whimsical threads and comments are a healthy distraction from our new American autocratic hellscape. Some escapism is good for mental health. Sometimes I slip and mention of American politics because that’s what’s causing me stress, and that’s a mistake. I shouldn’t bring up politics so much.

        Modern, polite societies - “Never bring up politics or religion in conversation, as you will never, ever change someone’s mind about those two subjects, and it’s both ignorant and arrogant to think you can”

        Americans - “Hold my high fructose corn syrup!”
