Feel about it/?

It is going th happen regardless of if I like it or not For the pieces I don't care so much about it, I feel apathtic towards and just dont' indulge. I guess some things i don't like but not sure my opinion matters. For instance on social media. It is there and great for some poeple but it is largely invisible to me.

What I like

advances in medince
improvement in hardware technology (computers)
improvement in software technology
implimentation of web based applicaitons (like this place!)
increase in world ecoomoci activity due to advances in supply chain
religion diminishing in America (because it useless)
a lot of the scientifc discoveries in biology and physics / though I am not that smart in either.
I like have to drive less for work.
sub cultures being more prominent - I don't belong to one but I like they have a better voice


What I don't like
impact of global warming earth and species extension from it
Sometimes the work world feels too fast--I am adopting but sometimes it is hard
The impact the oligopoly culture for business in our economics
How detached our federal and even statement goverments are from the communties they serve
How covid changed he world. Ironicallly micro biologists, experts in virology and others predicted we wouldn't be ready for the a major pandemic


What I am apathic to (don't indulge in)
social media
a lot of the slang / abberations in English I just skipped over
Music trends--another old guy who isn't a fan of the kiddos music
movie trends. lack of depth in the writing inspired apathy from me
theme park enhancements. I realized they evolved but I don't feel it mattered to me
auto enhancements / not a car dude or a big driver--I have a car and use it when I have to

I could probably add to this later
