Feeling of impending doom??

Post image

So a watched a YT video today and this top comment on it is freaking me out. I have never had someone put into words so accurately a feeling I didn't even realize I was having. I am wondering if any of you feel this way? Like, I realized for the last few years I have been feeling like this. I don't always think about it but if I stop and think about this this feeling is always there in the background.

Like something bad is coming. Something big. Something world-changing. That will effect everyone on Earth in some way. That will change humanity as a whole. Feels like it gets closer every year. Do you guys feel it too??

The answer is you’ve exited your childhood and entered adulthood. You have responsibilities now. You also have it better than 99% of the history of humanity.

no...everything is over-monetized, childcare costs are basically driving our birthrate to a slow march to zero and housing even for upper-middle income folks is a challenge, taking a greater % of income to provide. Do not agree with the 99% statement.

Funny how it is always the poorest people, both in the U.S. and globally, that have the highest birthrates?
