-> file: fediverse/1008 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── @user-353 @user-741 human brains tend to start ignoring signals when they become normalized. Like, if you are consistently exposed to the same smell you get used to it, and you stop smelling it. same for noises, and other signals. it's the same with information, I think, which is why doomscrolling is so bad for our brains - we go numb and desensitized! It's not good to have all that bad news all the time. I bet people believe in the "just world hypothesis" for the same reason. Essentially, optimizing for equilibrium in all things. I personally believe true justice is when everyone gets what they want. And if someone wants that the other person doesn't get what they want, then they don't want true justice. Like, for example, hateful people can never be justified because they want another's life to be worse. or they want someone to be wrong, which creates a contradiction - you can't give both people what they want if one person wants the other to lose. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1009 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── @user-735 well yeah because I never turn it on unless someone asks me to. and so far nobody ever has. or did you mean club penguin? ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1010 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── I'm done trying to be neurotypical.

Lie down and rot? That's incel thinking. I'm not going to do that. They've already placed the last straw. It's only a matter of time now, the tide has shifted. You can't prepare for everything, and it's not a good idea to waste yourself in self-conflageration, but they are increasingly forcing us to orient our lives around them. They deserve what's coming. The oppressed are not the defeated. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ |
