I’m a regular guy, I’m about 23 years old, I work at a job with a flexible schedule, the job is more or less acceptable, although sometimes it’s very annoying because of the extra repairs. Lately, I’ve been really wanting to go to festivals with cosplayers and stuff, but time is tight, and because of AI and data centers, there is even less time than there could be. And I never even went on a date, I constantly postponed everything for later, and now it seems to me that everything is lost.
Civilization is on the decline, well past its peak, and probably will be for another hundred years at least. At a personal level I’d advise you not to worry about it too much. The things you can do to make the world a better place are the same things they’ve always been.
