Who said I wasn't paying attention? Who said the speed of time was defined by the span of one human life?

It is quick in terms of the lives of nations. I say quick in terms of a perspective of decades vs. centuries.

Either your username is meta, or you need the Billy Goats Gruff to bring some clarity to your life under the bridge.

When you become as reactionary as your opponents, then you're no better than them. Thank you for not being like this.

As one of your neighbours to the North, I've seen this happen within my lifetime as well. Ironic that the Matrix predicted the apex of our civilization to be around 1999. It's quickly coming true.

It's a shame that my sarcastic comment might have to be taken seriously in 2025, depending on what ORAGNE does.

My point is that it was moving relatively fast now, with benefits to be reaped within the next few years.

When I was a stoner many moons ago, I used to leave money in random pockets, anything from $5 to $20. A few days later, when I was stoned, I would be looking for something random in my pockets and would find the money. This was the face I would make when I realized I had cash for a bag of Cheetos.

I mean quickly compared to before. They started after the Opium Wars, their efforts are only now coming close to fruition.
