My partner and I met on okcupid where one of the “match” questions is “Would you rather live in good times or interesting times?” Just about everyone (including him) answered “interesting times” and I had posted a little comment on it saying something along the lines of “I feel like people are not actually thinking through the implications of this.”
Now whenever something “interesting” but shitty happens (see: the pandemic) I say, “remember when everyone on okcupid said they’d rather live through ‘interesting’ times…?” I’d prefer to just read about it in the history books.

Or you’re about politics or AI or just progress in general
Hot take. Would you really disagree that things have been fucked for the last 3+ years? Regarding “progress in general,” at this point, it doesn’t even feel like we’re moving in the right direction in many ways unless you’re a Christian billionaire.
Well considering the title is “the past 3 years be like”
Dude, none of these are gonna be considered “major.” If you were to travel to the year 2500 and asked people about COVID-19 or the war in Ukraine, only huge history nerds would have any idea of what you’re talking about
