I feel like we're living in a Billy Joel - We Didn't Start the Fire song ~~2.0~~ (Fall Out Boy did a 2.0 version of the song where they used more recent events.) 3.0 and the events in the song are happening at 1.25 times the speed of the original.

Yeah but I feel this way every year.

I mean this is the year I finally started looking into building a diy NAS, so much more preferable to study guides rather than open the news and witness the despair filled shitshow.

I don't understand why you'd say this. The US 100% did start all these fires. Not only did they start them, they keep adding wood to the fire. It's so blatant even a blind person could see.

Billy Joel has great song and I appreciate him as an artist, but I'll he damned if he isn't an imperialist justifier.
