“It’s good to be in something from the ground floor, I came too late for that, I know. But lately, I’m getting the feeling that I came in at the end.” This is very powerful writing that came from the introduction of Sopranos. It’s amazing a series 20 years ago could represent the current political mindset today.

It's too hard to be at the ground floor of a lot of things, and normally the time it takes to benefit is shockingly long, even when it explodes with prosperity. They guys at the very bottom rarely every stay long enough to profit. Normally they get out after years of not seeing enough progress. It's best to jump on at the 2nd floor or 3rd floor when it's clear that the thing will a) survive, b) benefit, but is still c) largely unknown.
That being said, IDK what you're talking about. I see us at probably one of the single most interesting political time periods in all of American history.
"May you live in interesting times" is a curse, not a blessing.
War is hella interesting, but I doubt that's something anyone wants to live through.
Maybe, but you'll need to learn to enjoy the nonsense if you intend to survive it.
Hmm, maybe you're right. It's just... all so tiresome.
Eventually, when it's all over, we'll laugh hysterically about how fucking stupid everyone was.
