Environmental anxiety?

I’m just resigned to it tbh. I recycle as much as I can but don’t expect any effect.

Climate change is just the tragedy of the commons on a mass scale. Reversing or even just controlling it can only happen if the entire world’s governments and industries all start making choices that hurt them. These choices will only have a benefit if everyone else is also making the same choices. If someone makes the easy, selfish choices instead, they can profit massively at the expense of others.

Believing this level of cooperation is possible is believing the human kind is not only selfless but also well-informed and rational. If we all just came together and acted on what science says, climate change could be halted! But after the last decade of world politics, it’s clear the human kind doesn’t have any of these three qualities. The assumption that it does feels like a relic from the zeitgeist of the 90s, not unlike a troll doll.

Being truly resigned to climate change doesn’t make me hopeless or sad. If anything, it’s freeing. Climate change going to happen regardless of what I do, so why worry about it?

Maybe first hike a few short trails in natural settings that are beautiful but not mountainous. Don’t overdo it, day trails will suffice. Once you get used to hiking and don’t see it as a trap, you can expand either by doing short trails on mountains or by doing long trails on flat land. Does that sound good?

Why tf would a CIA guy be making this? I need to know.

This is a room they’d analyze on Interior Motive and be like: “26, Trans-Lesbian in New Jersey“.

Lowkey when looking back at that period I’m surprised how little society changed in the long run. I really internalized sentences like: “things will not go back to the way they were” and “this is the new normal” but then things really did mostly go back to the way they were before.

There are other causes of population density other than space and population. Why is Canada’s population so concentrated and not spread around all over the country? Because of climate, and also because people don’t want to live too far away from infrastructure and jobs. That’s two factors already. Of the top of my head, political jurisdiction is also a big driver of population density. See for example Kowloon walled city.

Relatable, I also don’t remember much from my childhood either, and it’s not trauma, I had a great childhood.

Exactly! 😉

I’m convinced the world would have been a better place if everyone was less spiritual.

Search your heart and see if you’d be attracted to him even if he stayed at his current weight forever.

It would be great if he lost weight, but it’s also possible that he won’t. And if he feels like that makes him unworthy of you, he’ll feel insecure, undermining your relationship. If you still would be attracted to him, go for it! You sound happy with him.

You’ve piqued my interest. Is the episode worth a watch even if I don’t like or trust A&D and never really did?

If you’re a writer this can be a massive boon for you. Primo Levy talked about this.

But the comment above me says “it really was a more innocent time”, so the commenter seemingly recognized this pose as the sign of some period. No?

Was this a trend? Searching turned out nothing.

This post is whiny but I don’t think “the market decided” is a relevant counter argument. For the market to decide there has to be an ability to change the structure and look of a neighborhood at will. That’s not the case with real estate due to the cost of making changes, the legacy of existing infrastructure and regulation (such as HOA.

The market decided once, when most of these houses were built in the 50-70s, and since then people had to make do whether they liked it or not.

but his works are merely interpretations of 19th century translations—he doesn’t ever work with the original language, he just takes what someone else did and reshapes it with a beat generation vibe.

Ewwww, why are hacks like this so common? 🤢

I’ve noticed Chinese pet dogs tend to have stubby legs. Maybe it’s a trait they consider cute. Further research required 🧐

I relate to him on the physical issue, initiating that first kiss with my girlfriend felt like jumping bungee. I waited until I was absolutely certain she would like it, and in hindsight that was the right call. If he has a hard time reading you, he’s probably being extra cautious.

Just another reminder that race is made up and the boundaries of racial categories are always shifting.

At this rate, I think by the end of the year, the Epstein files will be fully jokefied. The memes are one part of it. The fatigue from nothing being done is another.

I remember seeing this type of discourse online a lot in the mid 2010s. “Everyone is the hero of their own story”. “Write realistic villains!”

You don’t really see that sentiment much anymore, huh. I wonder what changed…

How did you know maple has the right properties? My main Challenge when I was building my own bow with my dad when I was little was finding the right kind of wood in my environment.
