  • Reading through these comments is depressing and my only hope is that I will be dead before the droughts lead to food shortages that effect me. I like eating, I like eating good food, I like having good food available when I want it. I don’t like being hungry. I hope I’m dead before I have to deal with starvation. At least nuclear war would be quick.

    Megaprojects are a pipe dream. We can’t even deal with a lowball pandemic together as a nation. What hope do we have of coming together as a world? Let alone for something that isn’t going to have immediate consequences slapping us in the face. We’re a pathetic society that can’t do anything good. All we do is consume. Mr. Smith was right, we’re a virus.

    We’re heading for a post-apocalyptic sci-fi future, and all the horrible shit that goes along with it.

    In a fucked up way, our only hope is if a mega power somehow dominates the world through some horrific war and consolidates power, while somehow avoiding nuclear war and then does a quick 180° straight into eco-fascism. That’s the glorious future we have to look forward to. Life under a global authoritarian regime with severe austerity measures to deal with global warming. People will starve, people will be executed. The horrors of Stalinism will be our reality, and it is the only thing that can save us from ourselves.

    I fucking hope I die, because I wasn’t built for suffering.


  • Mining our information and selling it has proven to be a 1 trillion dollar speculative industry. Not sure what they want to do with it outside of trying to sell me shit I don’t want, don’t need and don’t have money for. Maybe someone will notice that people aren’t buying stuff based on ads, then the economy will be in trouble.


  • I’m seeing a lot of people saying take the chance.

    At the same time I can’t help but think how disappointing it must be as a woman to not be able to have a platonic friendship with a guy without them thinking it’s something more or wanting it to be. Maybe she thinks you’re just a decent friend. If you take that shot there’s a good chance she’ll keep her distance in the future.

    On the flip side I can’t help but think of all the stories of girls flirting with guys who are completely oblivious.

    Not enough info to make a good determination, other than life is short and you’re young, you can afford to take a risk or two. Personally, I wouldn’t but that’s cause I’m a coward.


  • Oatmeal. Not exactly date night, but it’s hot and healthy.
    Get large flake oats, not the instant stuff.
    Boil 1 cup of water in a small pot.
    Decrease heat to mid-low.
    Add 1/2 cup oats. Stir only once.
    Cook for 10 minutes,
    let cool for 10 minutes,
    eat for 10 minutes.

    You’ll want to watch it closely for a minute or two after you add the oats to make sure it doesn’t boil over. If it looks like its going to boil over just remove the pot from the heat till it calms down, and decrease the heat a little maybe, every oven is diff. It still needs to simmer though.

    You can season it with whatever you want after cooking it: maple syrup, milk, oat milk, brown sugar, chocolate chips, raisins or other dried fruits (if you do raisins add them to the water before the oatmeal), cinammon, apples… etc.
    Maybe a small pinch of salt.
