I had always thought the depiction of USians/Americans as ignorant death wish having dangerous reactionaries in the Fallout universe was somewhat out of touch.

And it turns out the original Developers *undersold* the problem of USians.

I dont even recognize the world around me anymore or care to have a part in the house of cards rat races ongoing, beit this absurd, asinine fake economic Ponzi scheme, anti-Green action, the AI race to ignorance, or whatever privacy *raping* Governmental fascist law enactment is the flavor du jour, beit the Patriot Act, FISA, KOSA, all that trash.

All of this shit *should* be beneath us as a species and civilization.

And yet here we are.

So enjoy, I refuse to procreate.

I'm sure a sperm sample will be required for Identification some day soon, but you aren't getting any progeny from me.

So, basically, I'll be like the last Klingon Artist in Star Trek Enterprise.

That's 'real life' in 2026 surrounded by ignorance & pseudomeritocratic fakeness.

What I do recognize is that my time on this Earth is temporary and I'm but a cosmic speck of nothing, and so I'll engage in radical acceptance for my mental health's sake and try to be palliative for the world around me that is ecologically dying off.

The least I can do, and thanks to modern organized power structures, basically the most I can do as well.

Every government is basically a defensive structure for the Epstein Class.
