I recently heard a take of "what boomers don't understand about millennials and younger generations is that we don't expect anything good to happen ever again." I've talked to a lot of friends about this and the general consensus is "...yeah" not a single person has disputed it, even a little. When I mentioned this to my dad, he complained that his social security might be reduced in the next few years.

If you want some good news: the earth is greener than it was 20 years ago. About 5% greener, mostly due to big tree planting projects in India and China, but also due to de-desertification efforts on the edges of the Saha, Forrest restoration in the Americas rewilding efforts in Europe (which are also introducing native wildlife back to Europe like wolves, bison and beavers) and even the redesigning of urban centres to include more green space.

So much is getting better, social media and negativity bias in general is just making it seem like it's not.
Just for example, percentage of green energy is steadily rising. Even if it is not fast enough, that is still a constant improvement.

A decade ago, I assumed things would probably get worse, but goddamn I didn't think it would happen this fast.
Is there ANYTHING not getting worse?

Don't be silly, the fentanyl market is booming, and military spending is through the roof!

I just want to know why Jack Napier from Batman's 1980s flashbacks has a podcast?
Taco Bell is still pretty good…. Oh.. wait

It will continue to get worse because humanity has failed. God stays in heaven because the devil has won.
My issue with this is this is an opportunity for someone with money to start up alternatives that are built on the principles of “it lasts”!
It’s not that hard, make the OS open source, we already have alpine linux, busybox, debian, etc, then build the basic functions in and those who can extend things, will!
On the hardware side, use screws rather than clips, offer downloadable pdf’s with schematics, all this used to get done and dropped because profits! If I had the money I have a decent idea on how I’d start this up so who knows, there’s a few small things I’d like to learn to design/build and think maybe it’ll be sellable so who knows, maybe in 6/12 months and i’ve paid off a few debts i’ll build something useful.

That is what people have been saying since ancient Greek times

We have far less fears to see our civilzations collapse than we had at that time… Isn't it kind of positive to have some hopes?
replies:
Negativity bias is real and I’m quite sure that it’s amplified by social media platforms on purpose.
Optimistic people are problematic to the ruling elite because they bring their progressive endeavours to fruition, while the pessimistic ones complain that the world is getting worse.
