Couple of weeks ago in a burst of energy, I hammered out a 6-page summary of a totally new novel in a couple of hours. Still not sure if it's brilliant or BS. (less)

“Over the decades, the slogans of the young changed, like the seven stages of grief – except they were nowhere close to acceptance. It seemed as though it took everything to get to anger and bargaining, so depression was as far as anyone could get.

First it was the armor of irony:
YOU DROWNED SANTA CLAUS
I MISS FISH

Then the anger and the threats:
WATER IS NOT FOR PROFIT
WHEN DID YOU KNOW MONEY WASN'T ENOUGH?

As the decades progressed, revenge took over:
NO FOOD NO MERCY
BEG AND WE MAY NOT KILL YOU
BEG AND WE MAY NOT EAT YOU

The most popular was the simplest. Two words. It was everywhere – physical and virtual graffiti, songs and movies, hacks on phones and computers, chants at public events, clothing, even on their bodies. It was a popular tattoo. Some even had it inked – scarred – into their foreheads so anyone looking at them would see it. Turning away was impossible:
YOU KNEW”
Jim Wurst, Three Degrees

“Science doesn't tell us what we should do. It only tells us what is.”
Barbara Kingsolver, Flight Behavior

“Inequality and climate change are the twin challenges of our time, and more democracy is the answer to both.”
Heather McGhee
