Thank you for reminding me of another reason I need to ctb.
All of this creepy fake shit!
Our creepy surveillance culture!
Our creepy tech crap, narcissistic Facebook culture.
Our ridiculous joke of a political process!
I kind of want to hang around and see just how sickeningly dystopian it will get, and I will try as long as I can, but it all just makes me want to die.
In fact part of what stopped me since 2016 has been the nihilistic, popcorn-chomping glee at seeing all of my worst predictions for society come true.
I made a conscious decision to pause my ctb urges just so I can hang around and see how bad things will get.
The trade war has been fun, but drawn out, waiting for real consequences from that.
Last years hurricane season was a huge thrill (global warming),
This year's floods are fascinating.
The increasing US suicide rate.
I'm torn between the dystopian destruction making me want to die and making me grab a seat and some popcorn to watch.
How bad will it get?
What crazy crap will we be subjected to next.
I think the climate stuff is most interesting, I really want to see the longterm effects.
