    I was entrenched in media in 2015 and it was an unbelievably entertaining year. Of course I like politics so Trump’s presidential run was pretty fucking funny.

      My big thing was making fun of brexit with a british friend and trump got elected briefly afterwards. In both cases I don’t think either of us thought it would really happen before it did.

        Genuinely its been so shocking. Who would have thought hundreds of millions of people’s discontent could be used to vote for brexit and trump and bring the entire world down a path towards extremism. I thought things were pretty okay in 2015, and all of those people thought the world needed a shocking shake up of the way things are done.

          yeah honestly things had been generally improving after the housing crash. It was a nice, slow, steady, improvement that went into mr toads wild ride.
