    I’m jealous of the kids that will learn about this era in school in about 60 years.

    It’s going to be a really interesting social studies subject linking the rise of Web 2.0 to the fall of America

        It does feel that way sometimes, but humans as a species are shockingly resilient. This isn’t the first crumbling empire we’ve had to deal with, nor will it be the last.

          Sure, if by “humans are resistant” you mean that they massacred millions of us before anyone stoppped them.
