      Right? No sarcasm: I’m so fucking happy every day of my life. I’ve got so much to be grateful for.

      I miss not having this crushing weight in the back of my mind that the world is backwards and humanity is doomed. I miss being able to trust that adults were in charge, and things were generally improving. It’s sad that my kids won’t know that comfort.

      But I’ve got kids. They’re beautiful and I love them so much. I’m still able to give them a wonderful childhood for now. I can be upset about the state the world, but I’ve got no right to be ungrateful.

      I know. Which is why I think this meme is bullshit since the first time I saw it. If we never get to enjoy anything, what’s the point of fighting?
