There's no better case for socialism than the world's first trillionaire being a massive loser who cosplays as his mom and baby online and lies about being good at video games in an attempt to give his life meaning.
@ewarren AI shouldn’t have success, you’ve lost the plot here. It’s technology that only exists by exploiting the work of everyone in history and is designed to destroy jobs and the very concept of our agreed reality.
i’ve been fighting the far right for a decade plus. i never would’ve imagined a labor govt would ban me from entering the uk. dark times ahead for the west. liberalism is dead, maga fascism and it’s corrosive influence is felt everywhere.
Realised I haven't posted here in ages so LIFE UPDATE
-I quit my job
-I'm running my own tiny company helping game devs and influencers
-I'm back to being a good moods kinda guy
-I'm doing horrible paintings again
-I've been streaming again
Things are pretty good!
@BluSatire This is why I struggle to trust public reviews. You never know if some minute detail might have triggered a crusade of emotionally stunted troglodytes trapped in an echo chamber to start foaming at the mouth and spamming the 👎 button
how to strangermaxx:
> stay at events 10-15 min longer than you want to - push through the initial discomfort
> pick one new social challenge per week that feels a little more daring than usual!
> talk to a stranger in line, do something alone, strike up a convo at an event - start small
> it will be like growing a muscle so get your reps in
> remember people are WAY less focused on you than you think. they're in their own heads too
> have the audacity to believe that people ARE curious about you. they WANT to hear from you!!
> get off your phone & open up your body language
> smile, make eye contact, and practice 5 seconds of courage
> not every interaction will click and that's fine - you're practicing!!
> you'll see how people are EXCITED to talk to you & strangers aren't as scary as they seem!!
there's a whole world out there for you filled with wonderful conversations, laughter, and kindness with strangers
lean in!!!
have fun!!!
@scully1888 Wait that's actually great. Do you go with a bigger loadout including a vehicle and hope to make it through with speed? Or do you smuggle one backpack in at a time, stealthy like?
Id play it
