I just started a beer. I had an insignificant amount of trouble opening the bottle cap. It got me thinking of the video game Fallout. It’s a post-apocalyptic world where bottlecaps have become the primary currency. I don’t know how hard they are to make in this world but in the world of Fallout they apparently can’t be effectively counterfeited. They are a simple little industrial wonder. I’m surrounded by them. Even my art is possible mostly because I live in an industrial society. The struggle is real and necessary but so is the gratitude.
