@bazkie@beige.party The 90s: Pax Americana, the End of History, the world had maybe figured out economics, the Internet. Things were looking pretty good. Given that I was in highschool and university, tho, I was personally absolutely miserable pretty much the whole time. On a global level, pretty good. On a personal level, terrible. The 2000s: The endless wars on abstract nouns, the beginning of a decline into fascism, economic crisis after economic crisis... but I was finally getting my shit together.
