Shoutout to our parents for hitting an absolute timeline sweet-spot. Drop in right after a world war, have a bunch of weird sex before HIV, buy a house for like 20.000€, start a family, retire young and peace out right before the ocean kills us.

Yes. He's really saying that about the generation who was factually proven to have been mentally affected by leaded gasoline.

That's it. You're so smart. Go take your statins and nap.

They should be called generation G for hitting that sweet spot.

The future looks less bleak if the goal is not to live the life of that generation. There is AI, there are mobile phones, there is solar power and many more things.

When things are expensive, it means that few resources are used. This is good for the environment.

The big difference is that communication is free. We can talk to almost anybody in the world. This is still a huge untapped potential. That generation had a good life, but ours can be better.
