> So my advice to Rosenstock would be to seek another dedicated introvert. With respect; why? 40 years ago the future looked very different. None of you felt urgency regarding global warming, faced the same cost of living fiasco, spread of drought, fire, mass migrations, political instability, and whatever conspiracy driven idiocy social media will unleash next. There is no divine mandate humanity carry on a particular way. No reward for sticking it out with these entitled, self aggrandizing creatures.

  Exactly; why give people long term life advice when “to each their own” and the unknown nature of the future? Why recite one’s personal story as the key to happiness for everyone else? Go away Tony Robbins, Musk, and Dolly Parton; be happy with who you are. The rest of us will do the same without your guidance. It’s a really entitled and selfish energy to constantly emit.

40 years ago terrorists blew up something almost weekly worldwide, Russia was genociding a neighboring country all the same, cold war was in full swing, a computer glitch almost caused an all out nuclear war, and 4 million people died of hunger in Ethiopia alone.
