I'd say to my kids: "I was there when it was written"
I was there, $name. I was there 4 years ago when the strength of men failed.
We're going to look like such fucking idiots when people read about how we collectively handled it.

"It's true, all of it"
"Even the shitposts?"
"Especially the shitposts!"
