This is a circumstance born, in no small part, of the idea that manual labor and menial labor is meaningless and has no real value.

Our economy has been sold from beneath us, and the overall cultural ideologies result in most people avoiding these things. But it is the only thing that is actual production - the rest of the economy is all efficiencies or expenditure.

Slowly, the wealth has slipped away, and now it’s becoming apparent to people, and they don’t know who to blame.

Find or make an enclave and survive together.

Welcome to the internet.

That’s a fairly decent and nuanced take.

Someone should talk about doing something because they want to feel involved.

Maybe it’s you.

People think that problems shouldn’t exist, and that the authorities should have fixed it, and it’s killing their motivation to live.

There is no authority. There is how you want to live your life, and who you want to be. We are in the anarchy. You live your live according to your principles, and that works for you or doesn’t. We all want and can sometimes even have a nice situation, but underneath it, nature is metal - and we haven’t “grown out of it”.

Good point.

Ooh, typo. I’ll edit it so that those who fulfill these kinds of things know not to glass your home.

Trilium. You’ll be glass glad you tried it.

What was that old adage: “i may not hold the opinion you do, but I will defend your right to hold that opinion.”

I suppose my view on it is similar:

If you believe that a psychological stance should be punished physically, it might behoove you to realize that you are only permitted to hold that opinion by the good graces of those who, rightly, stand ready to destroy you if you try to enforce that view physically.

Clearly they watch it because they enjoy causing terror. They’re basically putting themselves in the shoes of the antagonist, and these movies make our more likely that they will take action on these impulses.

Physical crimes need to be addressed physically.

Psychological crimes need to be addressed psychologically.

Your psycho-pass is clouding, and your crime coefficient is well over 100.

It’s not that we had enough power to guarantee we would make an impact. It’s that we had enough power that we should have tried.

This is literally nostupidquestions.

Power makes existing tendencies for corruption obvious.

You want to pull passive aggressive or direct aggressive bullshit in a small group? Well, that’ll work a lot of times. People compensate, or they circumvent you to make things ok. But those same dynamics at scale cause inescapable problems.

Absolutely. Well played, I think that’s a great example of the self-referential bullshit feedback loop of sardonic behavior. No actual trigger intended.

Well, if you have Linux, there’s KDE Connect (works on Gnome, too).

My computer sound pauses when I get a call, i see phone notifications (that I want) on my computer, I copy something on my computer and then paste it on my phone… …the list goes on.
