I have a new word for you: information

Well, we have our differences, but - kudos to you for trying to make people more open and compassionate. It really matters

Lol. What a lengthy way to say “I am an idiot”

No, it does not mean extending solidarity to people who are ok with hurting everyone but themselves, they can go and fuck right off. So whatever solidarity you have in your mind, I for one won’t be a part of that

Cyberpunk 2077. Welp, with my current “savings” I am screwed. But at least I am into software development. Still gotta learn real fast

Bonus point: now look at how old humanity is. The Greek civilization, the Chinese, the Egypt… literally empires have come and gone, yet humans are just as dumb as thousands of years ago

Uhm, no. I am fine with my belly full, a place to sleep and a confidence that within foreseeable future no big bad thing is looming over me or my family - with that settled, I have no need to fight.

It needs to be said that the above does not mean I am not going to out effort in things beyond that scope, but those efforts come from the desire to make the word a better place, not from some fighting

How so?

Unless your “enemy” is “anything that most people see as a source of suffering/pain/other kind of unpleasantness”, I do not see how your statement can be true. And even then it is still a dumb way to exist

Get the plastic out of living organisms for fuck’s sake

National security my ass. More like his time span to show more dumb “achievements” while getting richer depends on it and nothing else

That what not-we want us to do, yeah. Many thousands of years since humans appeared on the planet, maybe it is time to say “no”, one by one

Let me share with you unique kind of emotions:) (I mean this in good faith)

non-native English speakers. It’s actually a distinct source of getting astonished: grow up with some English songs around, love them for their melody and whatnot, then learn some English, then actually listen to or read the lyrics, and… oh, damn. So many things come out in totally different light

You picked quite an easy example :)

• to live well, will it be better/easier to have climate stable or to be forced to adapt to unknown future?
• so let’s go do something about it

Nothing will work until people get a few basic things straight. Two simple thoughts humanity still avoids:

• I want to live well
• It is my responsibility to make my life well

Until each and everyone understands that and starts acting accordingly, no amount of -isms or whatnot is going to make anything better. Now, some can argue like “but today’s world is much better than slavery”, to which there is a simple answer:

• slavery has not died yet. Oh, the language was removed from legislature of some countries? Go tell people who are enslaved (literally, like documents taken away, chains on hands etc) how good that is
• more generally, exploitation is still a thing. Who cares what language it is spoken about?

So… yeah, Lenin and the gang did exactly zero things better, tons of people continued to suffer and die and there was no end to it long after Lenin died

Time to turn inside. Whatever around you gets fucked, essentially no one can order you “be miserable”. If this one thing gets fixed a hundred percent your way, the rest is just a question of what you can do and how much of that you are willing to do

But does it seem a very long road to become fully in control of own interiority.

I did not come up with this on my own, just picked if up from someone else, but can’t argue with it

I’ve got flash news then: unless I want 70 years old people to work production lines, my job (a developer) can be done by a seventy years old person. Or a job of an artist. Or <insert bunch of professions here>. Physical strength does naturally deteriorate, and that is the only thing that actually is does.

Now, to the more important: producing goods? Really? Since when has it become the only thing you look at? And since when producing goods is something only people-under-random-age-limit can do?

Awesome plan, I like it!

Yeah, can’t deny that. That’s a shame, they did and still do have some wonderful people, but the you’re-not-japanese-so-fuck-you-one-way-or-another mindset is a disgrace. If even I know that granting Japanese citizenship to someone who is not Japanese by blood is something extra-extra-extraordinary, it means things are - ok, I am tired of swearing - very bad

While I do not share the sentiment of “let them finally die”, I am very curious what will win: wanting to survive as a country and society or that bullshit worldview they are known for by anyone who learns anything more about Japan than just cool tech-anime-sake combo

I do hope they will change and survive. Ikkyu Sojun has earned a very special place in my heart (the one, who was a monk, son of emperor, who got a particular letter from his mother that is now famous among anyone who learns anything about Buddhism in Japan)

Warning: swear language ahead

Da fuck “productive” is, for fuck’s sake. Anyone thought of not running human intelligence into fucking ground over a period of… what? Roughly 60 - 20 = 40 years?

Or what, humans can’t think after retirement age because <insert some bullshit>?

You absolutely can have any percentage of <insert random age group>, provided human wellbeing is being taken care of, constantly and in all aspects
