It took me a while to realize how fundamentally important boundaries were to my mental health and well being. It's super simple, so its often overlooked. It solves many many issues.
I've experienced a infinitesimal fraction of the bullshit, and empathize with the disillusionment. The system is dying. Trump did his damage already. That and worse are inevitable. Money in politics. Money in all of it, i mean you have people being locked up in the name of corporate, and ecobomic interest ffs. I vote in all the elections especially local because that can help shift police behavior for the better of day to day people. I didn't always vote. When trump first won I was listening on a broken wireless am radio in a shitty apt with no power or food in absolute wonder at the depravity of man and the meaning of it all for me... I didn't vote that year. Fuck me right? I didn't even know where the polls were. The people not voting are the ones pushing boundaries IMHO. What we are opposed to is the ruling class. The dnc bootlickers and fascists alike can get fucked.
Wed need the second coming of Jesus to save this version of "democracy" ffs.
I think this mentality is what let's fascism take root. And capitalism has a natural bent for it. So trump has already done his worst damage imo. It's what continues to grow from it that is concerning.
The whole reddit thing aligned with other events in my life that pissed my sensibilities off, even more than i can usually stand, and i have learned to stand alot. It made me realize how much of my life was at the whims of greedy fucks who I don't agree with at all. Evolution through revolution I guess. woke me up in a way, a feeling that I've long forgotten tbh with you all. And that's mostly because of all of you and your ideas.
Lemmy is just good for me.
Those out for self interest are shortsighted, and what WE are doing is pushing in the right direction IMHO. Someone's gotta push and here we are.
I've removed myself as much as possible from the economic system. I am trapped, but I'm having fun trying to wake up. ⏰️ Maybe when I can't move much, which will be soon, I'll have to roll into a ditch or something 🤷
I legit don't remember the last time I went to see a movie...maybe like...one of the hobbit films? Or a Pixar flick with my niece? My brain is so addled, I do not recall. Oh well.
OK, I just asked my way more intelligent and practical wife, and it was Dunkirk, with my crazy mother, whos now all into wild conspiracies.
Oh shit! Me and by buddy used to play this often on pc back then. And the second and third. I actually installed it on my PC recently, but it was kind of choppy, sadly. This game was my first real foray into these types of games, which are my favorite. I remember the entire first game. My boy Diego.. what was the one out there group called? The sect or something lol.
Everytime I sit down to actually write, and try to be grammatically correct, it always surprises me how many commas I use, especially when writing in my voice, and I always feel like I go overboard, so I check it over and over. (Did I get em right?)
