    The scariest thing about this sentence is realizing we’re already halfway to the next decade

      What the hell has happened this decade so far, anyway? 🤦🏻‍♀️ Feels like we made little progress and just took giant steps backwards everywhere.

        I can think of a couple of good things!

        We proved the efficacy of mrna vaccines and deployed them at an unprecedented scale against a novel virus that had us all locked in our house. If it hadn’t worked, our governments were pinches this close to sacrificing us all for the greater good economy anyway so realistically these vaccines probably saved billions of lives.

        We’ve also deployed a huge amount of solar energy and started replacing combustion engines with electric ones on a huge scale in some countries.

        There has also been a lot of bad stuff though…
