This is definitely the vibe you give, but your writing also punches way above the weight of an ordinary scientist. It makes me think you're someone who deeply values The Arts
It is one of the things I like and use a lot. I'm sorry you don't have accessible museums or libraryes :(
We have an app called Libby which is not sustainable for several reasons, but for now, lets you access ebooks and audibooks in your local library's catalogue.
It's also one of the things I'm afraid of losing. The fourth reich is here, we have book burnings, we have libraries under immense fascist pressure, and I am worried that libraries could even stop existing entirely.
Most museums here are not free, but most of them are not prohibitively expensive. (Usually, only popular museums in dense cities are expensive, and even then, those usually start at around $30, with discounts available. They make most of their money in the gift shop.)
There's a lot to be grateful for-- I could list a thousand things right now. I think capitalists defend capitalism by looking at how much worse things can be, while leftists are unified by looking at how much better things can be. We have so much wealth that we want to hold on just to ourselves and even then it's utterly wasted.
Which leaves us taking a lot for granted. Plumbing is a modern miracle. Your post resonated with me a lot and I appreciate it, and I'm sorry again you don't have access to these things.
