Tune will put your enemies in the ground.
Goofy people near and far
I had some really good chicken curry today. (Temporarily off the vegetarian diet for complicated reasons, but it was good. Preferable to be alive when something like that comes along.)
Shit is interesting right now. We’re at (or approaching) the climax of western society. I wanna see how the story resolves.
Lol, everyone’s thought their generation is the end times.
Some were right, and the last one will also be.
What you’re doing is called inductive reasoning, and it’s not very bright.
“Lol, every day I wake up alive. Therefore, I will never die.”
I mean, they didn’t have climate change looming overhead.
When I was a boy we all knew the world would end in nuclear war.
Climate change is based on facts, nuclear holocaust was based on cold war era propaganda
I mean, nuclear holocaust was plausible, but it depended nearly 100% on policy and the whims of people.
Climate change also depends a lot on policy, but policy has already locked in 1.5°C warming, and seems likely to lock in another degree at least before anything really turns around.
Kinda still is tho right? Not like we knew wrong lol
It is taking longer than expected, though.
Because if there are two things that are comparable, it’s the mercurial whims of man vs the unstoppable force that is nature. And much like humans, nature can be reasoned with and convinced to not destroy everything.
solar power will save the world, it’s gonna be rad
My wife and my parents. My wife is a bit older than me. When my parents and wife have gone then I can check out.
My dogs.
Yeah dogs. I don’t have my own, but even every street dog I come across makes my life at least borderline bearable.
Food, empathetic people, smiles, cute animals, those little glimpses through the fog, or if all else fails, spite.
One day at a time. You’re doing great.
Don’t underestimate food. You can be frustrated at life - but imagine being frustrated at life with a beak full of pizza.
if all else fails, spite.
Yes. I’ve put up with too much crap not to get to become a cranky old person ranting unintelligible bullshit, someday.
I plan for it to be relatively pleasant unintelligible bullshit. But unintelligible bullshit it will still be.
You can be the crazy guy from Novac!
When the scientists wanted to get the first computers connected to what would become the internet, they plugged in special parts to let the computer audibly scream at a phone! It was loud and horrible and I miss those old screams.
Some humans were able to memorize those computer screams and could scream them well enough themself to trick the phone into doing all sorts of things.
Beautiful!
I’m going to use this.
And I’ll add that they made an episode of “Doctor Who” about it.
So damned much, there’s so much to see and do!
I will die before I’ve read half the books on my list, scritched even a fraction of the goodest dogs who need scritches and eaten at each of my city’s amazing lil restaurants.
If you truly have nothing else, spite can work wonders as a motivator…
The time period between the actual collapse and when you finally die will be rather exhilarating I think.
There’s a list of people I’m trying to outlive. If I don’t outlive them, I’ll be sad.
Good question. My answer is a little pathetic. It’s partially the new media that drops. Invincible season 4 is worth hanging on for. Much less pathetic, my friends. Spite is imcredibly powerful as well.
Possibilities. So no I don’t have anything in particular but im not ready to leave yet and if I do I hope it has some meaning. There are certainly things left to enjoy. Im big on simple things. Walks and nature.
Wanting to live long enough to see the obituaries of those who are making the world a terrible place. (NB: Not specifically wishing anyone dead, only pointing out that time catches up with everyone, and many of the people I’m referring to are quite old.)
I had other points but they’re reasons not to stop living as opposed to being reasons to live. One of those being morbid curiosity. And let’s face it, the one I started out with is pretty borderline.
