History books can tell you facts that happened, but they can never truly tell you how it feels.

I feel we're riding a knife's edge and there's a hurricane brewing in the gulf of absurdity.

Incidentally, I feel like this is why it is so hard to actually learn from history. You can read about the 1918 'Spanish' Flu, but you think "we're smarter now". etc.

I really don't like how interesting these times are.

What times were not interesting?

In the US, from about 1975 to 2015 were less "interesting" (in the sense of "may you live in interesting times") than current times.

IDK, man, the '70s sounded pretty wild: https://status451.com/2017/01/20/days-of-rage/
