I really don’t like the “it’s a distraction” argument. If everything today is a distraction for yesterday and tomorrow will have more distractions for today, then they are no longer distractions. It’s a figurative shotgun blast of bullshit on a daily basis and hoping most of it sticks.

Yes. There is no Merlin in a tower exacting immaculate designs through an orb on a table here — it’s just a bunch of people who were raised on the dark liquor of grievance culture who were given power. They’re all taking out their grievances. That’s gonna be the entire story of the next however long. Measure your place in that paradigm and plan accordingly.
