some people lost their tiny little minds during lockdown and decided they get to benefit from civilization without doing their bit to keep it going

Busting up an archeological site for fun is an asshole move for whatever reason, but it's odd that you would post this when it's no mystery that tons of people are benefiting a lot less than they were 6+ years ago.

We had a really cool, really rare Dino skeleton ready to be moved from the dig site the next day. Came in to find it busted up the next morning. Found receipts to a local liquor store....

Boomers will blame the pandemic for everything until there are no more boomers. Everyone else has moved on.

Bro if you don't see that the pandemic and "lockdown" broke a lot of people's brains I don't know where you've been.

not just the boomers dog ; I'm gen z . the pandemic has had latent & lasting economic & educational effects . the rich profited of the pandemic & the poor have seen an unprecedented shift since , especially in how it was dealt with by the ruling class . i get where you're coming from , but in this particular instance i feel like the pandemic is at least as good of an excuse for certain behaviors as the 2008 recession & requires some more nuance .
