They say that in the grand scheme of the universe, human life has only been around for the blink of an eye.
The Egyptians built the pyramids. The Romans fought in silly skirts. All the wars started by cranky white men who never learned how to compromise. All of it is so miniscule in the context of... everything.
But if we borrow that metaphor, the last few years have been that point in the blink where you realise you have something stuck in your eye. You use your finger to try to get it out but end up poking yourself in the eyeball, and then your impatient friend tries to help but they insist it's gone.
