Blah Blah Blah
Did we improve from the ancients?
Granted, in industry and technology
maybe even in other areas, as well
improvements, inventions
not Freedom but more free time
Idle periods for angry rants
differences of opinion
Diatribe – an old Greek word
a Pastime or Discourse
now reduced to long
drawn out rants
falling on deaf ears
drowning in hyperbole

Is free time really something desirable? I feel like we no longer have purpose in our labor, it’s not an avocation, so it feels like something that must be rushed though to get go free time.
And free time is wasted on our asses scrolling through other people’s fake lives. How is that better.
I do dig the increased life expectancy and feminist autonomy but other wise I see no benefits over ancient cultures.
Great piece. Thought provoking.
