I don’t want to "download the app" to pay for parking. I don’t want to "create an account" to see a menu. I don’t want to "provide feedback" on a 30-second interaction. I just want to exist in the physical world without a digital leash.
This is biblical.
A woman in her eighties. Ten years into Alzheimer's. Hadn't spoken a full sentence in five years.
Takes one, 5 gram dose of psilocybin.
She slept 19 hours and woke up and spoke for hours about her life, recognized family and held real conversations. She regained bladder control after five years, walked on her own. and dressed herself. Gains held for weeks.
Society was built to make money.
Indifferent to your health and sanity.
For example, we did not evolve to:
+ sit 10 hours a day
+ have our attention fractured 300 times daily
+ compare ourselves to millions of others
+ travel 9 time zones in 13 hours
+ tolerate sounds above 85 dB causing hearing loss
+ outsmart algorithms hijacking our reward system
+ breathe fine particulate air pollution
+ live under 16+ hrs of artificial light a day
+ have 3 courses of antibiotics before age 2
+ eat ultra-processed foods for 60% of daily calories
+ consume 17 teaspoons of added sugar a day
So if you're feeling down in the dumps, maybe fatigued, a little or a lot depressed, anxious, that's why.
So many people don’t want to have kids. Do you know how much you have to abuse a mammal to the point it doesn’t want to reproduce? Never happens in Nature.
This is the most savage error message by the Indian Ministry of Transport & Highways.
"The resource you were trying to reach is absolutely forbidden for some reason."
What's the reason?? Why is it so forbidden??
@_sorrengailll@Apple You have to turn this setting on in Sound & Haptics. The fucking volume slider does not change ringtone (& alarm) volume otherwise. Had this same infuriating alarm problem.
