Idk man, I’m a little younger than you (27) they didn’t have snow days in my town growing up unless the trees were blocking the roads, but now if there’s 2]inches of snow they stay home. But then again I didn’t really worry about being shot on an ordinary Tuesday. I got to play outside all day and learn what to do if you encounter a bear and what kind of noises the different types of finches make, meanwhile those still in school had to basically teach themselves trigonometry for a couple years during Covid.

I’d say as time goes on we’re becoming more so slaves to technology, starting with the agricultural revolution when we catered to wheat instead of having the variety of food hunted and scavenged and soon ending when humans become more robots than organisms or some shyt.
