    Don’t worry, things have been falling apart since at least the beginning of written history, and most certainly longer. At the same time, wonderful things have also been happening during all that time.

    Just make sure you take good care of yourself and of the people around you.

      Things falling apart 1000 years ago because of the magic man in the sky and things falling apart now because of overpopulation, greed, global warming and wars on a global scale aren’t exactly the same in my opinion.

      Thanks for the good vibes, internet stranger. Also for spitting straight facts: world always seems to be “falling apart, for reals this time” every other decade since…forever, and yet we’re still here doing the best we can.

      Not like this, other than the cold war, we were never so close to a global catastrophe like climate change.
