-> file: fediverse/599 ══════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────────── @user-444 There's certainly a path laid toward an optimistic collapse. Lucky for us, it seems to be the one we're on. You can help it along (the optimism part, not the collapse part) by being kind to the people around you and developing relationships with people of all different ages. The greater the spread, the more flexible you can be. "oh yeah I know a guy who can fix that" "uhhh I don't know but let me call so-and-so" "yeah sure I can do that, I'm glad [that guy] told you to reach out" I'm more interested in reality than fiction, honestly. Fiction can help when you don't know what's at stake, or you don't know where to go... But I know the answer to both of those questions, at least to my satisfaction, so instead I feed carrots to squirrels, sing songs in the shower, and smile at every person I see in the grocery store. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════────────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/601 ══════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────────── my cat doesn't know I had to cancel her vet appointment because we have 70$ to eat and they wanted a thousand ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════────────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/602 ══════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────────── @user-243 luckily for humanity, we don't necessarily have to all realize it. Our true nature shines forth through the law of averages, and we've long ago hit the escape velocity required to reach the bright future even if we only did 51% as good as those who came before us. All therapy is healing the wounds of our ancestors for posterity. Similarly, all kindness is mending a rift in the heart of another. And we, as humans, can't help but heal. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════────────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/603 ══════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────────── @user-447 @user-192 I see, interesting. I'll look into those tables - I've been using C lately and I've noticed myself rebuilding several Object Oriented features. It feels a little silly every time I notice myself doing it, like "oh, I can't separate future paradigms from my practice" ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════────────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/604 ══════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────────── @user-192 the only passive income I'm okay with is universal basic income Or like, writing a book that is bought by only a few people every year until the sun explodes or whatever. I mean, I'd prefer if every creative product of humanity was free and open source, but the question was assuming exchange of currency by considering "income" at all... ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════────────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/605 ══════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────────── I know they look tasty, but don't you dare feed green onions, regular onions, or garlic to squirrels or ducks. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════────────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/606 ══════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────────── ┌──────────────────────┐ │ CW: food │ └──────────────────────┘ try putting butter and broth/boullion in the rice cooker. trust me. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════────────────────────────────┴───────────┘ |
