If I got anything out of the 2020s, it's that it made me have a huge appreciation for the early 2000s, which is a just a better version of this decade

The 2000s wasn't good, but at least the decade was funny, the people can be dumb but mean well, and the culture can be decent, even if the state of the country was pretty average to not that good at the time.

Spending time in this terrible, tepid, superficial era has rotted my brain.
