Overflow of facts

I really understand why young people are stressed and depressed. Not only do they have to watch their bodies transform from something familiar to something else, and they have to wait many years to see whether their bodies will end up looking like a movie star or a some ugly member of the family.

They also have to watch their middle aged parents, who can't be funny to watch too closely. Annoyed over their aging bodies and how they run out of time, they frenetically try to sport like idiots, work like idiots or change family or something else completely immature.

They also have to be aware of all the facts. I'm not talking about YouTube and Wikipedia. I'm talking about homework. Who are the most knowledgeable when it comes to facts and details about climate crises, political experiments and not to mention our completely insane history.

Or maybe it is just me. I've just studied humanities or social studies of whatever it's call together with my son. It's kind of depressing to read about all the slum, poverty and unemployment in the world, and how the industry has moved from Europe and US to Asia and Latin America. And the pollution. I'm not sure I like to be reminded about all the global facts.

One can always watch TV or get drunk or become some sort of sports fan.
