the ones in power are probably quite well off there, so from their point of view the country would be working perfectly.

but if he went to mars it would be wonderful, if he stayed there

I give trust relatively easy, but if anyone ever abuses it or breaks it, they lose it forever. Though there are things i wont trust to anyone unless I ABSOLUTELY have to and then i’ll be very wary and anxious unless its someone i would trust with life of a loved one.

But i’d say start with people who are critical with the bullshit that is going on (and seem okay people in general, not the moon is made of jewish prezels wackos obviously). Try making friends with someone who supports lqbt rights for example, or someone who is concerned about loss of privacy, or someone who understands how shitty corporations are.

Most dont seem to bother even entertaining the thought of thinking about such things, why bother when there is new iphone whatever to be bought and new episode of some crappy reality tv to be watched, and news tell you what to think anyway. So its very understandable how you feel about this, especially considering how you have just recently awoken to the realisation.

For me, i’m on the stage of trying to not care and kind of looking forward to end of the civilization while simultaneously wanting to live current somewhat okay life even though its slowly getting worse too. I want to care, but since there is nothing i can do nor have any community that cares which i could try supporting, there is not much else to be done than fall into involuntary apathy.

Volunteer work might also help you, that way you would almost definitely find decent people and could also do some good. Though there are some pitfalls even with that one, like red cross is okay and all but its so big organization i dont think it has only helping in mind anymore, not with people on top getting paid big money or them suing other helper organizations (i have just heard they have done this, no idea if it has been justified or not. It just feels wrong if those other groups have actually tried helping people).

So far it has been quite lonely road, not wanting to tolerate all the shit that is going on in the world and watching people not able to even understand the existence of patterns of the reasons for that shit, or just not caring so much its the same thing.

I hope you can get at least something out of this mess i wrote.

i had my linkedin profile suspended in case i ever needed it for something. now i had it closed instead, though not before deleting any worthwhile information on it, not that i believe they will actually delete my information despite whatever they claim.

to me, vibe coding seems better used to provide a draft of the work so people with actual skills can then do the final work. A draft made with crayons, dogshit and stale beer but draft none the less.

Or you could just describe what you want to someone who knows how to design code stuff and can ask clarifying questions.

every time someone screams “but think of the children!” , i think that things would be better if that person thought about children less.

frankly, i would rather be ruled over by sentient ai than sociopaths and idiots we currently have.

how did it go for that guy?

bad reviews are how i evaluate the quality of stuff. Positive reviews cant be trusted most of the time but bad reviews might be more trustworthy. Any company that does this gives clear message that whatever they are selling is scam level quality.

instructions unclear, now its hard to use and to configure

kids are just handy excuse that appeals to the masses. Getting more control over people is the goal.

if you want to, but i’m interested to understand in case i wrote my post in unclear way originally

now i’m even more confused

again this does not apply to what i was saying, loving someone doesnt cost you. Frankly i cant tell how you are interpreting me, so i dont know how to clarify what i mean.

with mtg cards, they drain your money so that kind of works too. But rescuing animals or learning something doesnt apply here because it doesnt take anything from you (unless you are kind of insane). Or rather they dont cost too much in terms of invaluable resources like your mental or physical health, just your time which you have to give to everything anyway. Stuff like drugs diminish you being able to enjoy other things and drain your health and relationships. Even if you keep those under control, it still takes something from you, just a bit less.

Though anything can become an addiction too, but if positive things become that then you might have other underlying issues rather than those things themselves causing it.

imo, false happiness is something that takes more than it gives. So drugs is good example, maybe they make you feel good but eventually they stop doing that and start taking from you.

depends how you are enjoying them. If you are delusional and think the stories are real or something, I guess its just that its pretty fragile happiness which might cause harm to maintain it. If you are just enjoying the experiencing those stories then there is nothing negative in that. Ultimately its about how much good does something bring to your life.

Who cares about how it looks to others, unless you are causing harm.

i lived my early childhood at 90s and i kind of have same. Though i also have it about 80s or almost any decade before this current shitshow.

people in government are citizens but not every citizen is in government. But every citizen should have equal right and opportunity to be in the government.
