I’ve definitely turned into the paranoid nutcase within my friend group in recent years, I hate that everything is “smart” nowadays requiring an app/internet connection & account, just to do basic things that didn’t require any of that before.

What’s some things currently making you ramble like an old man?

    Im very scared crime rates are gonna start skyrocketing in 15-20 years in states that outlawed abortion. Essentially the opposite of the trend that hit in the 90s.

      Abortion probably didn’t contribute as much to the crime rate falling as you think. It was probably a confluence of factors, chief among them leaded gas being outlawed.

      Edit: abortion being outlawed is bad for myriad other reasons, though.
