  • Humans are the product of their environment, and the younger you are, the more affected you will be.

    If I put you in the rain forest with animals and plants and shamans, you would absolutely start to calm down and start to listen to people and become much calmer with time. Since the entire energy of the place is calm.

    But if you sit in front of phones and computers on social media, where you have this constant energy of consuming content you forget a day later, your brain will start to be unable to think and focus after a while. It will feel stressful to listen to someone who talks even, because it’s not fast enough.


  • It was an attempt at humor. :)

    Ok let me say it in a better way. People who work in IT do it because they like it. Many of the first world wide web pages or YouTube videos were made without anyone wanting any money for it. There was no profit motive or expectation whatsoever.

    That’s why I thought it was funny to read how instance owners are doing labor without getting paid, as if that was the purpose of the instance. To get paid for running it.

    To me that’s funny. It’s a bit like me painting a painting and putting it out there, and asking people to pay for my labor. The hours I spent making it. Because now the painting exists in the world. Who is gonna pay for it?

    I believe instance admins are more than happy running the instance without profit motive. Because it’s nice to be part of giving something to a community of people.


  • “battle through”. :)

    I feel like you are young… Im more like the old soldier who is tired of fighting, and going into retirement.

    My least favorite day is Monday because it all starts again, the week, from the beginning, just like it has 750 times before in the last 15 work years. It’s really getting old by now.















  • I strongly agree with you OP, about Hollywood. They can’t put actually ugly people in the movies so they try to act like someone is ugly when they are a complete stunner.

    Another thing, in movies and TV shows they keep saying “you look tired”, to actors who look competely normal and really good. No difference at all from their normal looks. And yet, they keep doing that shit. Once you think about this, you get annoyed every time it happens.

    Ok my movies are:

    Oppenheimer. Such a boring movie and everyone loved it.

    Gravity. George Clooney is a charming clown in space, doesn’t fit the story at all, and everyone liked it.

    Probably more, but those are the absolute top rated ones that I don’t agree with the public on.
