It's probably sign of being in a low-trust society that I found myself simultaneously agreeing with everything you were saying about dogs, but immediately imagining how all the various flavors of dog nazi online were going to scream at you for it. Dogs should always be leashed! Dogs should be allowed everywhere! I am scared of dogs and society should be designed for me personally! Etc. Another tweet I always think about was someone saying "I am begging Americans to learn to understand contextual clues."

Perhaps I should come to Bulgaria. I keep losing hope in the country.

But the coffin lid closes ever more tightly in a low-trust society to ever become trusting once again.

My wife wants to leave---immigrate somewhere---

we are all seeking a more hopeful society; a more trusting society; a more hopeful society---and then we dash it all to pieces from lack of trust.
