I wish I had the guts to play it - the anxiety I got from the water-tornados and huge vast emptiness of space, the black hole - the game did such an amazing job at giving me an overwhelming sense of dread that I had to just stop playing. I consider that a compliment towards the game lol
I've wanted to try! I've been grilling vegan burgers at home and replacing some things with tofu when I can. I can see how it'd be easier than a few years ago and definitely want to try like a week and see how I feel!
Haha this is exactly what I was thinking of - I read this and it scared the shit out of me. Are we all just animals eating each other to survive and we should just.... eat the living things that appear to experience the least distress?
This is why I've been increasingly depressed that I love meat so much. I've even started feeling bad swatting at flies. Humans are egotistical in our assumption that only our way of experiencing reality is special or meaningful. Just because what we call consciousness doesn't appear to exist in certain living beings doesn't mean they don't experience reality and memory in their own meaningful way we don't understand yet.
Imagine if we discovered blades of grass experienceed pain when cut - I've had some existential anxiety over shit like this ☠️
Yeah - as someone who mindlessly would google code syntax all day while working, ChatGPT has taken over that duty (and is doing a much better job at it)
Because when you're either not aware of the politics or the politics haven't soured yet, you can look up to the people who make a cool product you like. Like Reddit.... or Instagram..... or Google..... or Apple..... or Blizzard..... hell I hate them all now. I can feel the anticapitalism swelling 🤣
Nope - watching a group of people fucking-around-and-finding-out who could have helped end world hunger instead funneled resources into their own narcissism brings me a little shred of joy
Elon Musk is such an ignorant spoiled man-child. The world would be much better without 🤡s like him
