‘Destiny 2’ Has Accidentally Trapped New Players In Dares Of Eternity Hell

Why the ’70s are a blueprint – but not a destiny – for the 2020s
Washington Protests. An ugly withdrawal from a botched foreign war. Inflation. Politics riven by anger and partisanship. Puff-sleeve peasant dresses. Shortages of consumer items. New music from ABBA.This was the 1970s – and perhaps also the early 2020s. History often runs in cycles, and four decades after Watergate and the debut of “M*A*S*H,” the United…
