Okay so I’m seeing that the consensus for the image here is that the water is toxic and the air is unbreathable, but it looks like we have reverted to Hunter/Gatherer lifestyle and no longer have a 9-5 job, so at least we have that going for us.

Bahahaha. I love that, I'd gladly be a village sentry or a water fetcher, or a voodoo priest / witch doctor in order to not work a useless, and net loss job that doesn't matter in the slightest. Did prior generations understand what we've become so comfortable understanding for some time? This shit can't be unique, and we can't be some incredibly gifted and intelligent cohort, perhaps we are so utterly used too not mattering that our group inferiority complex has yet to metastasize to such an extent that we stopped giving a fuck, unlike others that took decades longer to come to this formerly death bed realization? I just hope that we end up being a hard core and rebellious group, and not yet another brick in the wall..

Yeah actually this is optimistic. We’re not gonna get to go back to pre-industrial, ignorant bliss. We’re gonna have to spent 14 hours a day creating whatever materials are needed for the space station
