  • Ah it’s always the same with those ideologically blinded people.

    Capitalism is inherently bad blah blah

    Socialism can never work blah blah

    It’s all bullshit. Capitalism does not matter, socialism does not matter. How we call it does not matter. What matters is that a society is healthy, sustainable and prospering.

    The main problem of all theories is the confrontation with reality - each set of values or ideology is as much worth as the people who (supposedly) follow it.

    In any system we ever built, there are greedy, corrupt, powerful people, who like shit, always somehow end up swimming at the top. And then everything begins to rot.

    Yeah overall I agree, brain stuff ist complicated and all boxes we draw there are simplifications anyway.

    Maybe I’m wrong but I thought of people with more stable and rigid habits/obsessive interests/hyperfixations to be on the more autistic side of the spectrum, and more random/oscillating patterns to be more on the ADHD side.

    My hyperfocus period is usually between days and months, where I learn everything about something and then I don’t care anymore.

    Never had this with food or cooking though. Like, of course there are dishes I love to eat regularly, but there is no dish ever I’d like to eat every day for weeks. I know I’d hate it after week 1 already.




  • Around primary school, I got two scars on my chin, on the same place, because I did not have the reflex to put my hands in front of me when falling on my face. Both times I fell face-first on a stone floor.

    And I once fell over backwards and broke my arm, because I was laughing so hard.

    As a teenager I also broke my nose in 38 pieces because of that lack of basic reflexes + causing a traffic accident due to being reckless and stupid.

    Kids, don’t go over red lights, even if you think there is no car coming. Especially not when it is getting dark and you got headphones with music on.









  • This.

    I grew out of video gaming the moment I started to realize that games are a manufactured irreality where nothing you do really matters, because once you quit the game you gained nothing in life, it is a well engineered time sink.

    Since my time became a scarce resource and I started to value it, only a rare unique mind twisting puzzle game or short experimental experience might be worth my time, but I will not touch games that eat hundreds of hours of your life for well, nothing at all.

    Also, when I was young and had almost no friends, games were a refuge and distraction, now I don’t need them. If at all, now I’d rather play a board game with other people, because it’s wholesome real world interactions and social fun.
