There are 2 images of 'the evolution of man' on this page. The 2nd one seems close to what you're asking for.

Hell arrived a while ago and it is summer on Lake Myvatn, or Midge Lake. You can't breathe without inhaling insects, so you have to wear a mask just in case a cloud of those things happen your way.

Agreed on the independence part. We are much more interdependent than we let on (in the US especially, but other places as well).

If everyone 30+ got together and collectively decided what thriving meant, then worked to reach those goals, then I think we would all be thriving.

The majority isn't hoping for a vacation home or to send their kids to Ivy League schools or to buy a bigger boat. The majority of middle class folk I talk to regard thriving as being comfortable enough to send the kids to some postsecondary school and take a few weeks vacation out of the country. They want to have enough to retire at 65 and live a modest life, be able to spoil their grandkids a little... nothing crazy.

The ability for all of us to thrive is already here. It is only the slight matter of systemic overhaul that prevents us.

Okay, now defend us from the foreign censorship that Israeli lobbyists baked into our state constitutions. https://www.newsweek.com/pro-palestinian-protest-states-colleges-illegal-bds-1895292

This is an astute answer. Bravo.

As I was reading the article, I had to keep checking the URL to make sure I wasn't on the Onion. Is the BBC doing satire now?

If peeing your pants is cool, then I'm Miles Davis.

And I just don't give Adam.

Before Jenny, there was Pennsylvania 6-5000. From wiki:

"Many big band musicians played in Hotel Pennsylvania's Cafe Rouge in New York City, including the Glenn Miller Orchestra. The hotel's telephone number, Pennsylvania 6-5000, inspired the Glenn Miller 1940 Top 5 Billboard hit of the same name."

And similarly, Transylvania 6-5000, which is where I first heard it.

Is this the same accent the indie musicians sing in, where they do weird things with their vowels to sound like they ate a lemon recently?

I've noticed a staccato cadence to some speech that people might say is indicative of autism, but not an accent.

That's the secret, and it's how they keep it hush hush: they don't take dollars, only shoes. Shoes for the wealthy is like Tide pods for the incarcerated: underground currency. It's more difficult to hide a shoe in your prison-pocket, but I think the wealthy have people for that.
