 ya'll we have bigger problems than [whatever you're working on right now]
 
 like the problem of deciding which problem to work on.
 
 we should make deciding which problems are problems and how problematic they
 are a priority for our problem solving discussions

 if we had a universal basic income then we could pay each other to solve our
 problems and they just can't have that.

 There is no problem that one single person can solve, which is why nothing
 ever gets fixed.
 
 ... also the powerful who benefit from it being broken, but that's a different
 problem which is much easier to fix.

 what if we solved all the problems and left none for our children and their
 children's children?
 
 the world would be a better place.
 
 I think we'd make new problems. I am unconcerned. If the peace started to get
 to them, I trust that they'd start fights.

 economic calamities are just moments when the richest decide which of their
 peers they don't want to hang out with anymore. And the rest of us have to

 it sounds like you're having a real tough time. : (
 
 you can get through it, I know you can. On the other side is something warm
 and safe, but to get there it's going to be hard and painful. I don't know
 exactly what you're working with but if you want someone to talk to about it
 you can message me.
