But also, I'm 50, you know?
So, eh.
people talking about what's going to happen like, you know, 50, 60 years from now, I'm like, eh, good chance I won't have to deal with that.
But my son will, so now I kind of care, right?
Well, there's only so much you can care about, right?
It goes along, believe it or not, with my kind of
generally optimistic human nature is that if you spend all of your time focusing on places where the world is going wrong then you're not going to make any room for your own happiness there are climate problems out there but i'm still going to fly to california to visit my family you know i'm not going to start a coal power plant
I have LED light bulbs, and I work from home, so I have zero commute.
But I'm also not going to spend my entire life being ashamed of the fact that humanity has modified the planet to make it more convenient for us.

So they're all just in a small capsule that they know they will not survive.
They'll never see anything outside the spaceship ever again.
So that could go one of two ways.
One could be like, all right, well, I have one overarching goal that I must accomplish because that is now the entire purpose of my life.
Yeah.
Or the other thing it could be is like, you know, you could succumb to depression or whatever.
I'm going to die anyway.
