  • The higher we soar, the harder we fall.

    All the knowledge and resources that have built this wonderous technological world we live in, are finite, and it would only take a few well placed/timed natural/man-made disasters to revert us permanantly back to the iron age (at best) within months.

    (Seriously, a large solar flare alongside a highly contageous and deadly disease could not only wipe out all electronics but also the majority of the minds and bodies required to mine, trade, manufacture, build and operate them.)

    And that’s without even acknowledging the looming catastrophic climate collapse and resource depletion coming for us this century. Without stable climates, arable land and fresh water, there is no life.

    Enjoy the last of the abundance we have, but don’t be so optimistic as to be blind to it’s precariousness.



  • I’m trying to enjoy the last of the abundance of good things, and have been educating myself mercilessly on how bad things are likely to get.

    When I have the spoons and relevant opportunity, I try to spread some of the knowledge I’ve accumulated too.

    Good things wise, I’m mainly leaning into my hobbies and interests of perfume, food and gaming.

    • so trying and collecting scents that comfort and interest me, eating and cooking with lots of fruits and vegetables that will be hard to come by once fresh water and arable land stop being so readily available, and recently I’ve also been collecting and playing all the pixel dungeon games.

    Education and escaspism are two sides of the same coin imo.



  • So many ethincally British people wash dishes like that and it’s beyond disgusting.

    Filling a tub with soapy water to dunk dirty plates and cups in and then sticking them straight onto a draining board, is literally just adding more yuck to your crockery for bacteria to grow on.

    And these people would complain about wasting water and stuff not being clean when I washed things with soap and hot running water?!

    Seriously, the stuff you eat off should not smell like rotting raw meat has been rubbed all over it, when it’s ‘clean’.

    When I lived with housemates, those of use who weren’t ethnically from here could pretty reliably tell who was ethnically British just by opening their cupboard in the kitchen.
