I'll be long gone and I have no kids by choice. Hopefully the human race will be extinct and the planet can recover.
Big same. I've spent the last 30 years arguing (and voting) for sustainable policies and environmental regulations, but what little progress has been made is woefully insufficient. I did my best, but obviously humanity doesn't actually want to survive.
Can I side step and ask how you feel about 20 years then?
I just want to take care of my little corner of the world. Take care of me and mine, have enjoyable experiences, make memories and try to avoid being evil.
I can't do much about the big stuff (other than vote). It's going to get worse before it gets better (if it ever gets better) but no point worrying.
I like your attitude and feel quite the same. I hope you have a prosperous life!
What they wrote:
Yeah, right. Likable attitude.
Fair enough lol. I like his 20 year attitude specifically on face surface.
I've checked out. I've been voting and advocating for Green and progressive polities for as long as I could, but here we are. I'll do my best to noy shitty up the place too much while I exit, but after I'm gone, I'm gone.
