        Even if I had that memory the meme itself doesn’t inspire hope. The feeling that it represents isn’t hope. It’s nostalgia for love and warmth. There is nothing in here that represents looking forward for the future. I don’t think that it fits into this community.

      Yeah, this seems like something that would be among the worst memories for a lot of people.

      Neither did I but I’m hopeful that if people have experienced that they’re going to raise more kids who experience that and so on. It’s a hope for humanity, not for me personally.

    One time my grandmother forgot to make mashed potatoes for dinner, and my grandfather put a shotgun to her head in front of their kids
