We need to grow up as a species.

I wouldn't agree more. The 21st Century is plagued by nihilists to whom a preference for numbing escapism prevails. Rather than use technology as a tool for growth and exploring the capabilities of the billions of neurons at our access, it is mostly being used for mindless entertainment. We truly need to grow up. From individuals, to communities, to societies, ultimately the species as a whole. A major disruption is imminent.
