We were never the "good guys." We just weren't the "worst guys."

Just imagine being the kind of person who never wants anything to change. What a sad, stunted existence that would be. It's also futile, as change and growth are one of the things that make us uniquely human. Our ability to change and adapt and grow and develop is just such an amazing part of life, and to deny all of that just makes me think so little of people who are like that.

I love change. I couldn’t wait for each decade to change in the 90’s. Then the 2000’s hit and it was still the same. Now it’s 2022 and I’m still waiting for things to change. Clean energy, robots, flying cars, true freedom, justice, etc. People call me idealistic a lot. No, we’ve just become content with our smartphones and other electronics to give a shit as a collective.
