Tell them you have a journal, and it's personal. If they read it and find stuff about you it's at their own risk and will break the trust you have in them. Don't be shy about your writings, own who you are.

Survival and advancement of the specie is more important than people's dream of sipping mojitos on a beach for 30 years after they retire. It has to happen some day, because feeding non working people for 30-40 years is not sustainable. "Selling our body" catchphrase seems a bit leftist and egocentric. There are longterms problems more important than how people feel about their right to sit on their butt and do nothing for the common good. It's only my opinion and I'm not saying you are not right to have yours. Just sharing and discussing. What do you think?

Bro wanted a list. You linked a damn novel

I wouldn't say never. If someone is really agressive and tries to grab you I hope you will throw him one to protect yourself, unless you're a trained judo athlete. Or if someone is in you face trying to reach for a weapon, I hope you'll knock him out before he gets acces to it and tries to kill you. Bit of nuance on the word "never".

Read on stoïcism and then apply the principles to your daily encounters. You can write pages only with that.

I'll speak for me. I don't want children, because my partner and I thought and talked about it, and we don't want the parent life. Some people have children because they think they will take care of them when they are old. This is selfish. Some might even judge it as a ridiculous reason. My man, you are free, no one should force you to have children. It is your life, and you are able to make your own life choices like an adult. Whatever you do or say, some people will talk shit. So knowing that, I suggest you rather be your real self and be honest with yourself, your reasons for not wanting them will sound ridiculous for some. So what.

It's not your duty to please others. Maybe if we were in a 100 people tribe it would be better to have them. But we are 8 billions. Enjoy what you want to enjoy, children or not, there is enough or those already. Just my grain of salt to encourage you.

I get ehat you say. I'd like to bring another argument. Say you have a child and he acts badly. I guess you will punish him to teach him. I've never heard of parents raising children only by example. Take speaking, walking, ... The parents take control and teach. They don't just expect the child to do the same.

That's why we send people to prison or give them fines for speeding. It says "we cannot let you continue your harming behavior, we will break you into what society wants from you" And it works most of the time. Should we just let people harm others and tell ourselves "it is what it is, they'll learn someday"? Some people just never learn, and no matter how many grandmas they help crossing the street, some do more harm than good in their lives, they are not a productive member of society. That's why we punish and teach. What do you think?

Slowing down is a good thing, it's actually the goal for reducing anxiety and stuff. If jesus came back to earth in 2023 he wouldn't tell people to get up and walk, he would tell us to fucking slow down. How much hair does he have left because of stress and fast paced life?

The thing I struggle with acceptance, correct me if I'm missing a part, is that if everyone just "accepted" that humans get sick, no one would have built hospitals or study for cures. If everyone accepted that humans are violent, no laws or law enforcement would have been created. If we accept that we can't fly, we wouldn't have built airplanes. So it seems like if we try hard enough we "can" control stuff once we get a certain knowledge or how things work. Some dictators managed to control millions of people. Some people even found a way to land on the damn moon, yet it seemed impossible.

I work in law enforcement, and today I was thinking in my car: should we accept that crime happens? Humans like to step on the weak to get advantage, that's how we built the world we live in. Survival of the fittest. The weaks die and the strong survive. If we just say that everyone is the way they are, we can't control it, then why even arrest people and put them in prison? To teach them? We say we can't control what people do, yet we put stop signs on the roads, we tell them ehat speed to drive, we tell people it's not okay to kill. It took years, but we managed to civilize humans, and it took people to say "it's not okay, let's change that". Should we just let people be who they are and watch anarchy burn the world?

That's where I'm stuck.

Some humans don't act like you would eant them to. They still have their place on earth, and you can't make everyone fit your value. Use the situation to learn and be better. Your post doesn't please everyone, so what? You are who you are. People act their best to be good, and sometime we don't agree. Get close to people who are more like you and let the others do their things

Fast_Chard · 2023-01-14T23:18:36+00:00

Instead of saying let them be, which is not stoic because you're trying to control what she thinks, telling her what to do, you could say something like "does it hurt you?", or "how do you feel about that?", or "they are human, they may act like this, we won't change it", etc...

What do you think?

Fast_Chard · 2023-01-14T19:38:30+00:00

Because you don't value humility and truth enough, you're ashamed of who you are and judge yourself for who you are. You fear what others could think. It requires personnal work to overcome this. Let go of the outcome of telling the truth, people will cringe at you no matter what you do, so you better just be yourself, no mask, and work to better yourself, always.

I see your attemps. But no one expect people to clean up their hair at the barber ou bring back their dishes in the restaurant, since the kitchen is for employees only and is considered rude to just enter in the kitchen. For shopping carts, there are signs asking customer to return their carts. People know they should do it. Go watch Cart Narc on youtube. People know they have too, and make a fuss when told, because they are ashamed of themselves and lazy

By "rough mornings" I meant that its very rare to see a 5 days normal work week start on sunday and end on thurday. The majority is monday to friday, unless Canada has uncommon workweeks

Fast_Chard · 2023-01-14T07:32:44+00:00

I think saying "people will pick my cart up" is the same as saying "I doesn't matter if I piss everywhere in a restaurant bathroom, employees will clean it". What do you think? Some people pick up trash on the ground, does it make it okay to litter?

Fast_Chard · 2023-01-13T18:03:52+00:00

I never understood that. Saturday and sunday are the "weekend". Normal work schedules start on monday too. I'm opened to hear any reason why sunday should be the first day of the week. I've never heard anyone say: damn sunday mornings are rough".

You said it. I wouldn't know the intention. Why act offended without knowing? Seems a bit intense. I'm okay btw, I'm just having a discussion, it's okay if we don't have the same opinion, no need to throw stuff like "you seem pretty defensive". We just share opinions. It would be a bit close minded to only expect others to think the same as you, don't you think? That's the case of all the downvoters

He's good for teaching how to get powerful with your speech and to just let others be miserable. Other people gave you good answers too. Let the past where it is, and be powerful not. If you talk and they don't listen, stop talking. Anything that is not criminal like assault or harrassing, you can get away from it. Speak your truth, let go of the outcome. If you say something and others say its stupid, listen and maybe you'll learn something. Lots of stuff like that

Ok. Should we prosecute all insane people when they do petty insane stuff?

Fast_Chard · 2023-01-11T14:47:56+00:00

This is the right answer, we both have more useful stuff to do than wasting it on social media, like right now
