Probably. But I have a hard time believing that you can be smart without being depressed in this day and age.
Edit: I mean there are moments. It’s not all doom and gloom all the time. But overall? I have a kid. What chances does he have? Should he want a family, what are the odds he doesn’t figure it out and feel just as bad as I do? It’s going to get worse and worse, and we know this. Every generation will have it worse. I don’t want that for him. And I don’t want his generational guilt that I have for him.
So it is time for our generation to revert the course. I am not saying you should go and do this or that, just that at the moment I feel that for things to become better we need whole generations of better people
Being smart and being able to enjoy little things are to unrelated things. Maybe you are just smart and depressed?

I’m worried for the world and the climate and at the same time I do enjoy a lot of little things. Maybe I am dumb though.
