    Man, the cameras and the constantly being connected to everyone has flipped the world upside down.

    I get it. I just put cameras up because a neighbor came over to tell me that some man was peaking into my 16 year old daughter’s window.

    I just wish we had done all of this differently.

    I don’t know. Just getting old I guess. It’s hard to see this as better.

    I’ve always thought about this comment that Kurt Cobain made, he was talking about going into thrift stores and finding little treasures, and after he became wealthy that was over for him. He was bored with getting whatever he wanted.

    We now live in a time where even the rarest shit is just a click away. Nothing about the world seems special anymore.

    I don’t know. I remember my grandparents talking about this kind of thing. Maybe I’m just getting old. I just wish my kids could have the freedom that I had, completely and totally.
