When you realize you’re in “good days” the feeling is called bittersweet. Therefore one should make the most, as soon as you realize the time is bittersweet. This helps prevent regrets of “not doing enough” later. Like today, it’s not too late to make the most of your upcoming weekend.

    I did enjoy living in the future before the dystopia set in. Good times.

      I’m a time-traveller, and one of the things that sent me reeling was realizing just how unaffordable housing had become, and how bad inflation had gotten over time.

      I went house shopping in 1995 as a curiosity and the realtor goes: “Well, we have a lovely three bedroom starter home available for $150,000”.

      My eyes almost bulged out of my head, because a monobloc one-bedroom “starter home” goes for almost $9 million in 2083.

        Holy shit…global warming hasn’t killed people by 2083??? Well, if I make it that long I’ll be 100.

        So looks like the planet won’t catch on fire while I’M still alive!

        goes back to using plastic bags from grocery stores

        If I could find out one thing about the future, I’d want to know if the GOP ever managed to accomplish their goal of turning the US into a fascist hellhole.
