And it's all been downhill ever since. There have been a few happy moments, but it's been at least 90% shit ever since then, and it just keeps getting worse no matter what I try to do to better my life. I'm probably gonna hero out like my dad when I was 2.

I enjoyed flying pre-TSA. $99 round trip to Chicago for the weekend (before it became the shooting capital of the world...)

I was having that conversation with some friends over the weekend. Flying used to be almost fun.

back in the 70's they actually fed you a real meal on a regular interstate flight. Now it's crackers and pneumonia depending on how dirty the plane is.

With actual cutlery and napkins.

I remember as a kid and teenager we used to be able to walk people to the terminal and watch them fly away. That was such a nice feeling to do. They've taken that away from everyone.

You’re worth way more than the 6 gazillion kikes who are destroying our cultures. Don’t let them ruin your life. Work out, find a White woman, make tons of babies.

Thanks, but I've done all that - got as fit as I could, got the attention of the type of women I like, got engaged after 2 years of dating and 5 months into our engagement she got hit by a drunk driver driving home from her shift as a nurse only 7 months after graduating from nursing school - she was in a coma on life support for 6 days until she lost consciousness. The fuckin asshole drunk who hit her only got 20 years for involuntary vehicular manslaughter with the opportunity for parole after 10 years (2026) and I'll appeal his parole and make sure he stays for his full sentence.

Dude, that sucks, but don't take it on you. You're not responsible for what happened.

You gotta move on and live your life, get a family. She would have wanted that.

You know about the rug pull meme. That's what I got emotionally, along with life still sticking it up me where the sun doesn't shine - which it has been since before I was born.

I was born breech with my umbilical cord wrapped around my neck - which is the perfect metaphor for how I'll end up dead - and doomed to repeat another shitty, pointless life and contribute my hard earned sweat/blood/tears to their soulless society.

And it's all been downhill ever since.

Your downhill slide is attributable to 9/11? Is that what you're saying? Or are you referring to a societal slide?

Both my life and society altogether.

Both my life and society altogether.

Society's decline can clearly be laid at the feet of the ruling class; the 'elites' who think they know what's good for us peons better than we know ourselves. And no, I'm not referring only to elected officials.

I can't speak to your personal life. I can say that 9/11 had varying degrees of impact on all of us who were alive at the time. How we deal with it is what matters.

It seems like the symbolic message is lost on most people when it comes to 9/11

The symbol of 9/11 are the twin towers going boom, there were other targets that got hit, but that one represents the event in the eyes of the public

The twin towers were also known as WTC, as in World Trade Center

The destruction of the world's -> trade center

...

America was back then and still is to some extent, the world's trading floor, think wall street

The attack was all about bankrupting america ultimately, that's how I read it and there are corroborating elements going in that direction https://youtu.be/XHl1JnQoIWQ?t=284

Was thinking over exactly this last night as I was going to sleep and was working out how I wanted to word a post about it if I were to even make one on it. Will just scribble it down I suppose.

21 year jumps; 2022, 2001, 1980, 1959, 1938, 1917, 1896, 1875, 1854, 1833, 1812, etc.

Anything of significance happen in, just prior to, or just after those years? How does a person who was 21 at the time of the event recall or feel about what happened? How does a person who was not alive at the time or recently born when it happened feel about that event when they reached 21 years old?

  • This year, 2022, a person born now will not be 21 until 2043. They are too young to witness/understand the events occurring in and around this year.
  • 21 years ago, in 2001, a person born in this year is now or will soon be 21 years old and witnessed the events of the recent few years. They were too young to witness/understand the events in and around 2001.
  • 21 years prior, in 1980, a person born in this year was 21 when the events of 2001 occurred. They are now 42 years old while witnessing the events of the last few years. They were too young to witness/understand the events in and around 1980.
  • 21 years prior, in 1959, a person born in this year was 21 when the year turned 1980. They were 42 years old for the events of 2001. They are now 63 years old and witnessed the events of the recent few years. They were too young to witness/understand the events in and around 1959.
  • 21 years prior, in 1938, a person born in this year was 21 when the year turned 1959. They were 42 years old in 1980, and 63 years old at the time of the events in 2001. They are or would be 84 years old this year. They were too young to witness/understand the events in and around 1938.
  • 21 years prior, in 1917, a person born in this year was 21 when the year turned 1938. They were 42 years old in 1959, 63 years old in 1980, and were or might have been 84 for the events of 2001. I doubt many born in 1917 also witnessed the events of the past few years as they would be 105 years old this year. They were too young to witness/understand the events in and around 1917.
  • 21 years prior, in 1896, a person born in this year was 21 when the events in and around 1917 occurred. They were 42 years old for the events in and around 1938, they were already 63 years old for the events around 1959. They would have been 84 years old for the start of the 1980s, and were unlikely still alive for the events of 2001 as they would have been 105 years old, let alone the events of the past few years.

Considering how different the world was in each 21 year jump, how will the world be in 2043 compared to now?

How many who managed to be born this year or over the past few years will still be alive in 21 years (or even 5 years) from now?

Will there even still be a world? If so, will it be worth anyone or their kids living in?

As previous 21 year jumps make quite clear, things happening now and how they are addressed -or not addressed- do matter as it will impact the world that will exist -or not exist- in 21 years.
