I don’t think any of us will ever feel normal again. It’s so exhausting. I just want to go back to, like, 2009 so fucking badly.

    You dont need to come up with crazy conspiracy theories to prove, we already have few confirmed ones you can be invested in right now. You can start with planned obsolescence.

      …so those buildings in Taiwan were already planned to be obsolete? Then the quake itself was just a formality.

      I think I get it. <nods confidently>

    Sounds like someone is going crazy. How many servings of paint chips do you eat a day? Should be sparingly according to the crazy diet pyramid the aliens gave us.

      Did you consider that maybe, just maybe, I was exaggerating for comic effect? On a goddamned meme board?

      Jesus, do you also think those “big brain” memes are actually reporting sightings of cosmic motherfuckers, with galaxy brains, in the sky?

      See, that’s why it’s upsetting that I had the thought that I had.

      The world has become so precarious, so permeated with the tension of a looming World War that can never happen because nukes, and so off-kilter, with recent extreme and abnormal events (like pandemics, the rise of neo-fascism, suddenly artificial intelligence is literally a thing, etc) that we find ourselves easily considering truly ridiculous, extreme, and improbable possibilities.

    Since ww2 life itself on earth is becoming safer and more peaceful in general, but people feel more and more unsafe. Hm. As if people believe more and more media propaganda. Yes, I know, wars all over, I’m talking about the general average, and that’s a fact - I’m not saying “don’t be concerned”. No. I am concerned. But a culture of fear and hatred is very much detrimental to human development. That actually concerns me. Call me naive, but i sincerely believe that - if we survive - it’ll be better in the end. Some day. It’s just so sad about all the suffering until then. And it’s so painfully sloooooow.

      Seriously. At this point, if a sasquatch ambushed me while I was bending over to put groceries into my car, and grunted “nobody will believe you,” while sticking his fully fur-covered schlong up my ass, I’d yell back over my shoulder, “I wouldn’t be too sure about that anymore, motherfucker.”
