Just finished re-watching Mike Judge’s 2006 film Idiocracy.  I must say I think prediction of the future is just about true for right now.

Things either:  Get better, get worse, or stay the same. Once you come to grips with this you can put the appropriate energy into things going toward the eventuality you want. The bigger issue however… just because you want things to get better doesn’t mean others want that too!  Some people just enjoy seeing the smoke rise up from the ash.
