I’m confused. The stock market is at an all time high and unemployment is low, how is anything bad?
I blame Skill Based Matchmaking.
Bring back 3rd party dedicated servers
I want to host my own server.
People love Minecraft for this.
By the people for the people.
There’s still old games from 20+ years ago that have niche communities alive because of dedicated servers.
Meanwhile some live game these days might be dead forever after a few years.
I grew up playing unreal tournament 2004 and afaik there are still servers up 20 years later
There was a dude I worked with a few years back who’s from south Korea talking about playing Unreal in internet cafes when he was a teen and there’s a pretty decent chance he absolutely destroyed me a couple times 20 years before we met.
The lack of server browser in modern games is definitely contributing to my unhappiness
it’s because not enough young people know about Hexbear.
I was unhappy, then I came to hexbear and now I have a permanent smile.
It appears you’re also dead. There’s clearly rigor mortis on your face.
Who is this disgusting creature in the mirror?
Everyone’s a superstar here
More surprised it was there to begin with. Guess plundering USSR was a greater boon than I thought
Nah, it’s just that the myth of the American dream/exceptionalism has well and truly collapsed. People aren’t dramatically worse off, they just can’t rationalize their misery as being temporary or for a good cause anymore.
And don’t get me wrong, they ARE worse off, but I think being unable to deny that fact is a greater psychic hit than the conditions themselves.
The government could kick the can down the road like thirty more years if they bought out Blackrock’s real estate ventures and sold all of their properties at rock bottom prices to people who don’t already own a home. Having a house cushions you from so much pain and grants access to financial instruments that can get you through a crisis, our economy basically depends on a majority of people doing it.

yep, but they’re not even interested in doing that. so total collapse of society it will be.
If the government was willing to express power in a form like that, we wouldn’t be in this situation in the first place. But here we stand, government hollowed.
53 years ago Nixon froze wages and prices with an executive order, and now something like that is unimaginable and there’s no state capacity left. life comes at you fast
The USA is still a very young country (in the sense that settlers have only been reaping the land for ~150 years in the entire western half). Each little sliver of opportunity hadn’t been snatched up until pretty recently.
Yeah, in that sense, but native people have been in America for 10k years.
But they were stewards of the land, not stripping every last bit of profit from it and leaving wasteland behind.
It’s because the drugs are shit now
Bringing back quaaludes would fix this
I feel like happiness is very hard to quantify and am very skeptic of the value of studies that measure it.
While reasons for why somebody may be happy or not are indeed complex, it’s not hard for people to state whether they feel happy or not.
