Slowing down and getting kind of boring now

Interesting, fair points made about the damage progressives can do if they are able to superimpose their values onto the masses from their place of privilege. Also good points made about how much of a competitive advantage changes the course of what is possible

Heartbreaking but grounding and realistic stories of how people have navigated addiction and the impact on their lives
