I can’t help but think constantly about the end of the world. I don’t want to. I want to prepare cheese platters and drink champagne with friends. I want to live my life. But I cannot escape the end of the world. Headlines declare the end of everything from democracy to the climate itself. Disaster movies and post-apocalyptic movies are all the rage. And I don’t want to alarm you, but I am aging. Our time will come to an end.
