Honestly I'm sick of living in interesting times, experiencing "once in a generation" financial crashes, or having to essentially helplessly watch a genocide take place in real time. I would have loved for us to live in a boring time where nobody would remember us outside a specific niche of archaeologists

I’d be fine with it if we could get some good “once in a lifetime” events occasionally. I’m in my 30s and pretty much every single one has been bad so far.

We've seen remarkable progress throughout our lives, both technologically, and socially. It's just that those things become mundane after a while and you don't remember how amazing they were when they happened.
