    I could have gotten a humanities degree and spent 4 years reading amazing books and studying art. Instead, I did math and now know our president is a fucking moron.

      It’s also not high tide for humanity. Your knowledge can help educate people as futile as it may seem.

        When we rebuild the global order, I hope I can play a role. I’m old enough to have been taught by the Greatest Generation but not that old.

        Not that the Greatest Generation was good at everything. Youth sports coaches in my day had all fought in wars and didn’t care about strategy so much as us listening to orders and being assigned roles based on height and haircuts. It took decades and Kevin Durant before tall people were allowed to be ball handlers and short people could play defense.
