It's why when I first read about crypto back in 2013 or so I thought about getting into Peercoin whenever I had the money to do so. And it's why years later, when I finally had the money to do so, I never bought any crypto, even when FOMO was hitting hard.

It's why I stopped taking late night drives in my car to wind down, instead taking walks. And why I try to drive to maximize fuel efficiency.

It's why I felt guilty every time I flew a plane while a student pilot and never finished a full pilot's license (I never would have started in the first place had I not been pushed to do so by my father).

Yes, some of us care.

I did that too for the first 30 years of my life.

Then I realized that I was compromising my own life, making sacrifices, and effectively giving away my power to the people who don't care.

So I changed tactics, and bought a jeep.

I'm in my 40s. Lawful Good isn't going to change. I like being able to live with myself, thank you very much.
