I am with Anon. It’s all kinda surreal now. But I’m gonna live it up the way I know how.

Comments like this always make me think of this film. One of my favorites.

Hmm.

I think capitalism isn't the problem nor is liking and consuming a product or experience. We have great products turned into entire experiences here in the US, and I'm not terribly upset anymore about it.

The problem is the late stage unchecked capitalism running rampant. I think allowing individuals the freedom to pursue their ideas and allow others to even build livelihoods from it works great. But there's gotta be checks and balances, its what the USA was founded on.

The world i live in is considerably better for me than the world I was raised in. Everything's a shitshow but at least I got to transition.
