Things are also a lot more urgent.

Ecoterrorism has been a thing for a long time.
Ask loggers.

Yep.
Every painting covered in mashed potatoes removes 3 lbs of carbon from the atmosphere.
Every time someone talks about it on the internet, .25 lbs are removed.

Reply to comment by FrickinLazerBeams in Study finds brain changes associated with ADHD remission. As the brains of those with ADHD mature, some individuals may repetitively engage in strategies that compensate for symptoms. These repetitive behaviors may result in the brain changes seen in those who went into remission. by Wagamaga
“Remission” doesn’t mean “gone”, though.

Our ancestors faced far more immediate and tangible examples of death and brutality than people typically do now, at least in the west. High infant mortality, war, famine, lack of sophisticated law and order……
We see stuff on TV. It wasn’t that long ago executions were a form of public entertainment.

Reply to ELI5: how effective is bear-safe storage for scented items/food at campsites? by togapartywalkofshame
I remember someone (maybe a park ranger?) posted here on Reddit not too long ago that the problem with "bear proof" containers is that it's almost impossible to make something hard enough to get into that a bear can't figure it out, but easy enough to get into that most people can get into.
I don't remember the exact quote, but the sentiment has stuck with me.
