I guess what I'm ranting about is that whenever I look back at the past I can only see how things went right or how things went wrong, and why they did and what the other outcomes could have been.
I've been awake for too long maybe but whatever. Retrospective thinking is a fucking asshole that can make you feel godlike or like a piece of shit.

Retrospective thinking might be a form of autism. There are autistic people who make obvious mistakes because of getting too much excited without being able to think rationally, and are able to understand the flaws and faults only later, and how it could have been avoided only when the harm was already done.
