Flying cars are also horrifying: they’ve existed for about a century, popular culture won’t accept they’re a bad idea and imagine the research breakthroughs drone warfare would experience if a consumer market were funneling funds in from a whole new closely-related industry
Idk what your society or definition of “insanity” is but assuming you’re asking what we believe most commonly leads to one’s mental health entering a negative feedback loop:
Broadly speaking it’s some form of hopeless desperation (yes, the hopeless qualifier matters here) that commonly kicks into high gear after falling into homelessness, at least based on my own observations
Some also get to play on hard mode simply for winning the genetic and/or socio-economic anti-lottery
The name Salazar will now forever be translated to “French Dwarf Dude” in my head
Different jobs are different
Sorry for rambling
How did that cat manage to keep its phone’s reflection out of this selfie?

Same way you overcome any of life’s challenges: decide it’s impossible bullshit and move onto another game
The moment I realized the most one can gain from (pre-buyout)Twitter is the respect of other Twitter users, posting anything immediately became a chore
Doesn’t sound familiar but I understand there’s very little to go off here
Can’t remember the name but there’s a novel set in Ireland in the not-too-distant future
Synopsis implied it had become a surveillance state but didn’t gave up before confirming due to the literal writing style
I swear every sentence was written in the passive voice (poorly remembered examples):
“It was made known through the clothes he wore they were sent from the department of security”
“As she walked outside the smell made Spring’s arrival clear”
Totally fine normally but do it every single sentence and it becomes a mystery novel where the mystery is what the hell you just read!
… Or idk, Harry Potter 5 is pretty meandering
Pick any human development index measurement and view its progress over the past 10 years
Counterpoint: what?
Hobbies have always been restricted to those who can afford or at least (as is far too often the case) finance them
Will an urbanist shift make these things less accessible as larger homes are torn down and replaced or drive down prices by hoovering up those currently forced into larger homes than they need? If I knew with impunity, I’d be too busy running my real estate to respond
Why is the date range backwards?
I see some of their paintings are dated at less than 2000 years old so it would be CE but that’s not necessarily true for all their artwork

It doesn’t stand for anything
Yeah, more or less both
Keep your share of rent between 1/4 and 1/3 of your income, set up passive savings contributions of at least 10% and use a high yield savings account to stave off inflation until you both have 3 months living expenses and understand why the best investment strategies are boring
If you’re in university, your desired career and its requirements should determine your major, , not the other way around
I graduated with a bachelor’s degree only to realize my career was a dead end because only in my senior year was I informed there’s such thing as a “mental health license” for which I was disqualified due to low grades in a non-related class the year prior. Eventually I learned how well blue collar jobs pay (with a lot of job security at that) and got back on my feet working in logistics but I’ll never see the 50x return on investments by retirement because “why learn about finances when you can barely pay rent”
It all seems very obvious in hindsight
Just burn the “dangerous books” obviously…
This isn’t a “question for the community” nor even a thinly veiled attempt at raising awareness: it’s the epitome of self-righteousness
I’m deep and this is 14
These are relatively easy to find in Japan
Couldn’t tell you why but they are
