Guidance for citizens experiencing unpleasant emotions

Are you feeling sad, anxious, or inexplicably furious at the state of the world?

Please be assured: Your distress has absolutely nothing to do with:

accelerating climate breakdown
obscene concentrations of wealth
political systems that treat human beings as disposable
the quiet dread that maybe society is being run like a malfunctioning theme park

No, no. The real cause is far simpler:

A sabre‑toothed tiger once chased your ancestors.

That’s it. That’s the whole explanation.

Your emotional turmoil is not a rational response to present‑day conditions. It’s just your quirky prehistoric brain misfiring again.

So don’t worry about the billionaires, the burning forests, or the creeping sense that something is fundamentally wrong.

Just remember: sabre‑toothed tigers. Very scary. Totally responsible for everything.
