Everyone seems to need instant gratification in every aspect of life. No one seems capable of thinking for more than 25 seconds into the future. The pervasive culture of "Fuck you, got mine", and the rat race to the almighty dollar. I don't get it, it's sad, and it's the driving force behind not wanting children. The world sucks, and I want to reduce suffering.
