Yeah maybe it can buy us time to do that

I hate to feel hopeless, but people always ask me what's my plan and to be honest ... I don't know

[–] match@pawb.social 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

oh! I recently asked you what your plan is and I thought you answered well and it gave me enough hope to get by

[–] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Thank you for saying so, but do you think we have enough time?

[–] match@pawb.social 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

While there's life there's hope, friend! We're around two generations into imagining hope post-apocalypse and we rehearsed one already.

I'll try to cultivate your optimism. I just said to someone else if we try and things perish anyway, at least we'll die knowing we weren't complicit

[–] match@pawb.social 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I hope we die old and at peace in some kind utopia, or if not we die building towards that for others

[–] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 months ago

I have the same hope. I feel pretty old, so I'm hoping to at least feel like things are gonna be OK for everyone else when I'm on my way out

Does the answer to that change anything? We should still do the best we can with what we can do. While saving 1 person and failing to save the rest is absolutely terrible, it's also better than saving 0 and so still worth doing

[–] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 months ago

True, I suppose it's either try or throw our hands up and cease trying

If we try and the planet dies anyway, at least we'll go out knowing we weren't complicit
