Toot

A fellow hyphenated American and I were pushing back today on the Eeyorish tendency to point out that "it could always be worse" when you complain about something basic or suggest how an improvement could be made, which is common here in Eastern Europe (and elsewhere, too, but perhaps with a different flavor).

We don't have to be rotting away in a gulag to want something better for ourselves, our loved ones, and the world.

We're allowed to want and hope for better.
