@BreezyGuitar@ClearNeidan@jesidamina Also, I have been progressing career wise within a not very Neurodiverse friendly environment so the scaffolding I've needed to function at higher levels gets tougher. So, yes probably the specific context, the wider world context and ageing tends to deteriorate function
@BreezyGuitar@ClearNeidan@jesidamina Yep mine has definitely gotten worse although I don't know if it's due to the world changing and all the distractions worsening symptoms
The most annoying thing about being human on Earth right now is the absolute waste of potential.
Brilliant minds and artists could be solving world hunger, climate change, and ending cancer, etc.
We could house, feed, clothe, and care for everyone.
But instead, we’ve decided to let a handful of asshats become billionaires, start wars, murder and imprison people, and keep the majority in poverty while ruining the climate.
It’s so stupid. The wasted ingenuity hurts to think about.
@hgurdon@iam_polymath@magattew I was suggesting that trade was not free in the way you describe either, trade was nearly always mediated, and protected by the powerful who imposed thier rules on it, otherwise trade becomes plunder. Free trade is an ideal, it doesn't reflect the reality of power.
@Heccles94@Beerdri01118796 Exactly. We need to close loopholes, tax wealth, in a way and stop corruption. If not higher tax rates will not mean schools or good hospitals or nice public services. Problem solved! 💁🏼♂️
@DrewYetti@ElizaH64344 Its not an insult, and it's not directed at anyone in particular, the advice from the manosphere is objectively immature nonsense. I'm not here to educate you, find your path to emotional maturity.
