Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

ikr, who the hell was saying "I can't wait for 2026"??
I don't think anyone was that optimistic.
I just stopped watching the circus. Whatever happens will happen. :)
Being a cynical bastard is great, since my expectations are that things will probably get worse. I'm alive to watch modern society and capitalism eat itself out, and if things are actually getting better it will be a pleasant surprise.
Otherwise pass the popcorn while I watch us go through the great filter.
Somehow the last few years have failed to meet even my low low expectations
2026 is going to be great I think.
With contrarians like this around? I doubt it.
