312·17 days agoPeople love ignoring the fact that if you don’t take care of yourself, you’re going to feel like shit. Upwards of 80% of the chronic disease we see in the US is a direct result of poor diet and a sedentary lifestyle. No one wants to hear it though
The internet is becoming so grossly corporate anyways that if AI is the thing that finally pushes us all back outside maybe it’s ultimately a good thing. There’s only so much recursive enshittification a person can take before they walk away. We really saw the golden age of the internet come and go, sad to see it happen

1·19 days ago“The moral arc of the universe is long but it bends towards justice” I think it’s a beautiful idea and maybe it’s ultimately true, but at the very least it’s not linear. The rise of Christianity seems to be a reaction against the domination of Rome over the known world, the oppression of the powerful over the weak, the rich over the poor.
Hunter gatherer societies tend to be rather egalitarian, so the rise of “civilization” would certainly be a backwards step on the path of waking to the social concept of life. Rome brought about such an extreme of the animal life that Christianity rose to balance it out, yet of course it corrupted and misused and now today it stands to be lost entirely, destroyed of any of the good in it by those that use the shield of “Christian” to restore a dominating animal life back over the world.
In my estimation we are forever caught in an endless loop with a rising and falling of our empathy and “divine awareness” as a species and we will go on and on until the race of men is ultimately extinguished.
I personally feel that this life is a hell from which we have to try and escape but that’s just my own intuition
Too fucking relatable. It’s nice zoning out every once in a while with a game, but it too easily replaces time spent working on yourself and growing. I think the current place we are in in our culture leaves us starved for a life lived full measure and we can somewhat scratch that itch with games, but ultimately it’s no real substitute and without finding a way to really actualize our own potential into the real world we set ourselves up for disaster and deep deep regret and dissolutionment

15·20 days agoThis at least puts a hold on increasing funding for ICE, it’s too bad their MASSIVE budget was appropriated in the BBB, otherwise this would stop their pay

Can confirm this will happen if you eat nothing but rotisserie chickens every day five days in a row
