    The fact that I see and hear my family’s ethos in everything The Right does. That makes me angry beyond comprehension and motivates me to keep going out of sheer spite.

    The assholes who raised me didn’t manage to break me, not enough to take me out of the game. The assholes who rule us now have their work cut out for them, because I came out stronger.

    An egg?

    I try to channel all these lessons I picked up in therapy like “everyone is trying their best” and “we’re all just billiard balls”

    Nothing, I just wait for unbridled rage to give me a fatal heart attack, or for a driver to run me over to get out of a parking lot or driveway a second sooner.

    China installed 181 GW of solar power capacity from January to October 2024. It’s installing about 200 GW of solar every year. In about 20 years we will have so much renewable energy and renewable storage mechanisms that oil will no longer be a reason for wars. In 100 years from now generative AI might exist and humans will be on Mars. Everything I do that’s constructive for the world, that isn’t exploitative, keeps these positive developments progressing however slowly so that future generations of humanity will not know our suffering.

      I believe you mean Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) We currently use generative AI.

      …keeps these positive developments progressing slowly so that future generations of humanity will not know our suffering.

      Hear hear!

    The responses are rough, man 😅 Some of y’all are hanging on just out of spite - which is totally valid tho. Hope you all will be able to find beauty in the world again and enjoy life!

    For me it’s my family. Had a real fucking shitty day yesterday. Everything went wrong and then some. Then just got a glimpse of a picture of my son playing with his grandparents, laughing, happy. That was it, my day got 1200% better that instant.

        Ahh, yes. I can also add plants and pets to the list!

        Go over bury your face in the plushy fur of your dog/cat? Day suddenly looks way less gloomy.

        And fuck, it is a good feeling to see a new leaf or bloom sprouting from your favourite plant-Bro 👌

    Reading theory helps me contextualize and analyze the world around us, which gives hope for a successful future for Humanity. I even wrote an introductory Marxist reading list to help anyone else who wants to start reading Leftist theory.

    In addition to that, I find comfort with my friends and family, reading, cooking, gaming, and otherwise engaging with my hobbies.

      I renewed my tram card today, it expired a few months ago so I was paying full price instead of the low income price since then. I’m happy to have crossed that out of my to-do list

        This could be its own post. I posted there about going to get a haircut and asking if sport clips is more or less the Hooters of haircut places. (I’ve never been to sport clips)

    Times were troubling since the day you were born, because since the day you were born you were going to die. Life has a 100% death rate. Make your life matter to you, because that’s all that matters.

    Also, don’t read comments on articles. Stay off of social media. Those things are a mind cancer. Negativity bias and fear mongering drive profits by keeping your eyes on it. Find healthy stuff that makes you happy.

    You are going to be ok.
