There’s things that I like about myself that I cannot put into words; it’s more a feeling.

make sure you hump that couch when you see it!

they said “wild fires”

just like wild horses, wild fires existed long before they were domesticated.

yesterday someone posted a closeup of moss on a street to show how fascinating it is. i can’t find it anymore, but it was cool. maybe somebody still has that picture?

Edit:

The technological innovations of the last fifteen years, from advertising enshittifcation to AI cheating, have largely been a disaster. We are sadly at the point where, as Ted Gioia says, “most so-called innovations are now anti-progress by any honest definition.” I dare say that if we could revert all digital technology to where it was in 2009 – before the invention of the retweet – we’d all be better off.

I’d go back even further (to 2007) before the invention of the iPhone. The smartphone has, arguably, IMO been a bad, or at least premature invention. It created a generation of kids obsessed with their photographies, giving girls eating disorders and creating/spreading unrealistic beauty ideals, etc… Also it has severely disrupted teenagers’ social living, created sleeping disorders, chronic doomscrolling, addiction, and more bad stuff. The iPhone was, IMO, not ready for this world.

Honestly I think it’s most likely that you’re simply overworked. (many/most people are)

I think that being overworked, together with emotional instability/lack of security, are the most prevalent causes of mental illnesses in our society today. It’s no “chemical imbalance in your brain” story. Sure, there’s chemical imbalance, but where does that imbalance come from? I guess it’s mostly that our bodies aren’t built for today’s demands.

It is important that you love yourself. In fact, I think it’s important that you feel loved by someone, even if that somebody is yourself.

Why are politicians doing nothing for first time home buyers?

Why aren’t universally some laws against home flipping and people owning more than one residential property? I think the right of having a roof over your head is a basic human right and every person out there deserves to have a decent home and not be forced to live on the street.

Because that would be socialism, obviously!

isn’t that why the hippie movement ended?

Most people are not that creative.

One thing I learned: fuck dictionaries. Be creative. Invent words if you need them. As long as it’s understandable, that’s all fine.

I’m gonna find you one day, manga of two girls cuddling cutely.

it’s called “co-evolution”

Very interesting read.

I also like how, at the end, it changed perspective to say “actually, our problem is not software, but politics”.

We must be aware of what agents we encourage and discourage through our actions.

solar panels will do a lot to reduce the problem of climate change significantly.

I’m saying this because I see a lot of young people having depression due to climate doomerism, and realizing there’s an effective strategy that can be physically implemented helps a lot.

correlation does not imply causality, mind you

something something “suffering builds character” smh

and keep eating the foods that you know give you inflammation

fucking wheat. I knew it was bad for like since my childhood, only stopped eating large quantities of it a year ago, when i finally got my shit together and converted to a mostly rice-based diet.

No, I’m just saying, what you eat and how you move can do a great lot to improve your general health and mood, except when the environment is total shit. Then you might still feel bad.
