I am not from USA but in my opinion it would be better to have money in emergency… but thats just my opinion.
I searched for life advice in 30s on youtube and all the videos recommended to me after I watched two videos were about “life changing experience” to “Things to do before turning 30” Videos and still recommended to me.
I think it is because people search for the current issue and suddenly you get tons and tons of relevant videos recommended and they don’t go away.
It works the other way to though, if you suddenly start watching fitness videos suddenly all you do is watch fitness videos and believe me from there it ain’t far to the protein, carb etc. videos and then it starts mixing up your previous searches “depression” with “fitness” and you landed by the wonderful Tate.
Which is why my video feed is screwed up in an interesting way and my brain doesn’t know if it is fine or not. I have Starcraft Videos popping up next to Asmongold, ThatWasEpic, MarkManson and mixed in with random nonames how they got no friends and struggle in life and the next video is someone who tells me to go to the gym at 5 in the morning because thats what machines do.
I think these feeds can make people feel certain ways and if you are feeling bad you are most likely gonna watch something that is about feeling depressed.
I totally understand wanting to escape, but psychedelics are kind of like a risky shortcut. The experiences they bring can actually be reached naturally, like through meditation or even lucid dreaming. With lucid dreaming, you can explore your subconscious and control your dreams—no substances needed. And if you’re curious, melatonin can help with lucid dreaming too. It regulates your sleep cycle and can enhance REM sleep, which is where vivid dreams happen. When you take it in the right amount, it can help you become more aware of your dreams, making it easier to control them. So instead of turning to psychedelics, which can mess with your brain, why not dive into things like meditation or lucid dreaming? They offer the same kind of mind-expanding experiences, but they’re safer and something you can actually train yourself to do.
Psychedelics are like throwing fireworks around your brain. It’s a shortcut but keep in mind the people who write it is life changing experience the same amount of people can’t write it because it was life ending. Maybe if you want the shortcut do it with supervisor.
I wouldn’t recommend because it is a shortcut. You have to understand and feel though.
Go to Thailand (Koh Phangan for example) and speak with the teenagers and young adults who shroom the first time. They really can’t see the big picture. Nobody can see the big picture because there is no bigger picture. We are just recieving a ton of input by hearing, seeing, feeling, tasting, smelling and creating images. It is not more and not less. Some people believe in a god or some other things to hold on to something during this ride but in the end it is all an illusion that will end somewhere from birth to death and no one knows when and after that it is over. No god, no respawn, no nothing, just like the state of prebirth. It is what it is. I am not judging if it is good or bad to believe but it gives motivation. I believe too, I believe that my energy will be released after death and I will be part of the universe again. I won’t feel, I won’t hear, I won’t see, I won’t smell and I won’t taste - just like prebirth. But I am here. I say believe, because I do not know and I can’t know.
Hm weird, I left religion and now I am labeled as “Konfessionslos”. Dont pay anything to a church or anything that has to do with this fairytale story.
In my country we have “Konfessionslos” -> non-denominational.
We need a huge arena and just place all politicians in it and just watch.
Come on, most of russians, ukraines, israelis, iran people etc. dont want war. Nobody friggin’ cares about politician problems and yet they just bomb random properties of people who absolutely don’t want to be involved in that shi.t.
It’s just so sad. Politicians are sick.
Autumn really does have an intoxicating allure, doesn’t it? Those foggy mornings wrap everything in a thick blanket of mystery, where the world feels muted and hushed. As the sun sinks lower, the shadows stretch and twist, creating dark corners that seem to hold secrets—and maybe something more sinister.
When the nights grow longer, there’s an electric tension in the air, a feeling that something is lurking just out of sight. The leaves crunch beneath your feet, each step echoing like a heartbeat, while the lake lies still, a dark mirror that reflects not just the fading light, but the whispers of things that hide in the depths.
As the chill settles in, it’s easy to imagine figures moving just beyond your vision, lurking in the fog. The beauty of the season mingles with a creeping sense of unease, as if the very air is thick with stories waiting to unfold—tales of things that thrive in the dark, where the line between the living and the shadows blurs. Isn’t it fascinating how autumn invites that darker side to play?
Die Florida Version wäre ungefähr so:
In Florida war ein 28-jähriger Mann mit seinem Kinderwagen unterwegs, als eine 21-jährige Frau und ein 26-jähriger Mann ebenfalls mit ihren Kinderwagen zusteigen wollten. Ein Streit brach aus und eskalierte schnell zu einem handgreiflichen Gerangel, während ein Mitfahrer sein Krokodil in Sicherheit brachte!
Der Busfahrer wurde während des Chaos verhaftet, weil er heimlich Koks verkaufte. In der Zwischenzeit kümmerten sich zwei Schüler um die Hühner, die sie beim Gassigehen hatten. Am Ende gingen alle mit leichten Verletzungen davon…
Deutschland ist so langweilig.
So I am basically vacuum cleaning my tip lol
I get where he is coming from.
The issue we are facing though is that a large percent of humans can’t deal with AI and most laws aren’t even suitable for coming issues. AI is advancing way too fast for majority of society and at the same time for a large percent of our worlds population internet is a luxery and another part of the population isn’t even connected to the internet.
With that being said, countries that are behind will be even more behind.
Captchas now are just clicking on pictures but they are getting harder now.
In a year we will have captchas like this:
“Please click each image that is least likely to have a 50-70% chance of producing exactly 15 nm3 of dopamine in the third mammal that is physically closest to you.”
It was all fun and games a few years ago watching videos and detecting fake videos by counting fingers but now that isn’t possible anymore. 20% of humans can’t logically think about things out of the box and see fakes instantly. They believe in most BS.
I still don’t see what we are going to do with 50% of humans losing jobs. Let them sit around? 50% of the working people who can’t be replaced by AI will be mad asf if they have to work for money while the other 50% do nothing for the same amount.
It’s interesting because I think this won’t be an issue in about 50-70 years. It’s also interesting because I am 31 years old. I am going to have to observe this transition.
I really hope AI will get us off the screens and back into the “real world”. We need less screen time and more social time. If AI adds more screens to us we are doomed.
I’m not from the US but everytime I read Florida and DeSantis I am ready for the content and I know it is going to be interesting.
I mean, Florida has people who race away from cops and hide cocaine up the nose. It’s a wild state. People from my country really go on vacation to florida to experience this. Walmart is a highlight.
It’s the small things that start meaning a lot.
I work nightshift and last year I had nightshift from 22nd Dec to I think 28th Dec (7 nightshifts) I do it for the money and so I am off longer til 10th January.
I always wear my christmas sweater to work and before I go to my nightshifts I stop at the bakery. I am 30 and this lady, I assume around 26-28 commented on my sweat “Hey you look good!”.
I am not searching for a girlfriend because I have a wife lol but this still somehow felt nice. My wife also comments on how good it looks etc. but when strangers comment on that it’s still kind of different.
I grabbed my coffee2go, sat in my car, called my wife and told her a young lady hit on me but eventhough I am old asf (31 lol) and she laughed and wished me a good nightshift.
When my wife and I go on vacation to italy and a car that is still with you after 3 hours drives is also nice. The last time the car behind flashed his headlights 4-5 times before he left our highway and waved. I waved back. We never saw us again.
I think I should start cleaning for Snoop Doogg
Interesting. I never worked for rich.
But I was just assuming based on my own personality that I seem to give more back to society now than I did a decade ago because of how good my income now is.
I never really supported local events (charity) but now I do.
We have dogs, take care and walk a lot, Series, most of the time cook, yard,… we built a house this year. Short Trips to cities, we do a lot together (,imo) but nothing Routine like Tennis or Sport. She doesnt play Video games, I play them on high level (if Starcraft says anything Im high masters), I watch many streams and Listen to msny podcasts. She has no interest in any of it.
I have no idea what she does when I play Video games but whenever I play an hour and get a coffee I see her sleeping ob the Couch with this garden tv show on lol. I think she has no real hobbies and relies on my day plans
Ich habe ehrlich gesagt bereits resigniert, finde es aber gut zu sehen, dass viele Menschen nicht aufgeben wollen und zuversichtlich sind.
Gleichzeitig wäre ich stinksauer, wenn es mich betreffen würde (z. B. Klimakleber) und ich nicht zur Arbeit komme.
Vor einem Jahr habe ich mehrere Firmen für Solar angeschrieben (Angebote) und bis heute fehlen mir zwei Angebote von 5 Firmen und die drei die geschrieben haben, hat eine Firma abgesagt und die anderen beiden erst im Herbst (2025) “eventuell” Zeit wenn die uns einschieben.
Meine Resignation bestätigt sich jährlich mehrmals wenn ich in Südostasien oder Afrika unterwegs bin. Die Menschen können nicht einfach auf erneuerbare umschwenken, die sind in einer Abhängigkeit von fossilen Brennstoffen gefangen. Es fehlen weltweit die nötigen finanziellen Mittel, in den meisten Ländern der Welt steht die Armut und Entwicklung als oberste Priorität.
Hinzu kommt, dass die meisten Entwicklungsländer bereits so stark von den Auswirkungen betroffen sind, obwohl sie wenig zu den Emissionen beigetragen haben. Und nicht nur das, die sind bereits teilweise hoch verschuwldet und mit der Rückzahlung beschäftigt (z. B. an China) - somit keine Investionen in Klimaschutz oder Nachhaltigkeit.
Nichts gegen Anpassung und Klimaschutz, aber selbst wenn wir alle ab morgen unsere Autos stehen lassen und Rad fahren würden erreichen wir absolut nichts.
Will auch hier keine Hoffnungen kaputt machen… ich glaube aber, dass es nichts bringen wird und wir nun mit den Folgen leben müssen oder mit den Folgen gehen müssen.
Ich bin da seit einigen Monaten ein paar Schritte weiter und überlege was ich auswählen soll und entsprechend umsiedel in 10 Jahren.
Gibt es da irgendwann dann %%%%?
Bin neulich durch die Stadt gefahren und habe gesehen, dass Depot auch Pleite ist und da gab es fast 70% auf alles. Normalerweise kaufe ich da nie ein, aber bei 70% war ich relativ gut dabei.
Da konnte ich mehrere Packungen von den 100 Teelichtern mit 4H Brenndauer kaufen, pro Packung nur 2,99 €. Von Tupper habe ich gar nichts und bräuchte eigentlich auch mal was.
Schade für die Unternehmen die Pleite gehen oder aus anderen Gründen zu machen. Für mich ist es aber recht angenehm. Ich suche aktuell ausschließlich nach insolventgehende Firmen um Schnäppchen zu machen. Im Esprit neulich auch relativ günstig 3 Winterjacken gekauft. Brauche keine 3, aber wenn die von 170 € auf 60 € reduziert sind kaufe ich auf Vorrat.
Hätte mir ne Yacht statt Haus kaufen sollen. I bin dum
I had like 40 albums.
Each about 4 GB but I only have 5 GB on one drive for free.
So I uploaded an album then downloaded it to my computer and then I deleted the album on one drive after I had it on my pc downloaded. I deleted the album on one drive to free up space to upload my next album. And so on…
So now I have all albums on my pc but didn’t notice I wasn’t only deleting the albums on one drive, also on my phone lol.
