We are already living in the worst timeline I am sure it will continue to turn to shit.

This "timeline" stuff is weird. It seems like a cop-out that there is some alternative one we could shift to that is out of reach but we're just unlucky or something.

This isn't the worst or best timeline. It is just what is happening.
