I could never be a rich person. I've spent the day watching YT docs about rich hotels, cruises and whatever and none of it really appeals to me. What's the point in spending $9000 a night for some tropical island resort where your cabin is one of 30 on a street? You might as well stay in suburbia. And why do their 5-star hotels all look the same, that same modernist minimalism where you can barely tell if you are in New York or Tokyo? And then there's the food, Sea urchin fried in chilli-infused truffle oil and topped with caviar, Jesus, just give me a burger or lasagna.

Actually wealthy people have their own culture and generally don't go in for nonsense like that.
For wealthy people even their luxury spending and hobbies are calculated to be assets that add to their overall wealth.
They would almost never waste large amounts of money on consumables as such behavior is irrational and wasteful to them.

The stuff you saw are traps for the young/dumb money who doesn't understand wealth and just have more dollars than sense. The wealthy don't like to associate with such people.

>>312258
I am talking about a class of people who were born into wealth and trained since childhood to understand how money actually works.
They don't come off as greedy in any traditional sense of the word.

Greed is fundementally doing anything for the sake of getting more money.
They already have money and just very good at managing it to not squander the generational wealth since to them being the one to drop the ball and drop the family into a lower class would be shameful.

It's a very aristocratic type of world view.

 No.312355

You know for all the users that now populate the internet, it's really hard to get a conversation going. Even places like reddit and discord it's hard. I wanted to talk about a particular comic I finished reading yesterday (not at all obscure, capeshit, fairly well known title) but you either get drowned out because there's just too many people posting but not responding to each other or the subject matter you bring up gets ignored. One would think with thousands of people reading a comment one would get some replies but it's not usually the case. The internet really is a shouting match and if you don't write your message in a way to cause a knee-jerk reaction you get ignored. On the other hand, I don't want those idiots' low effort garbage anyway, so I don't write the message as a provocation.

I get better feedback talking to my mother who knows nothing about comics but at least she listens to what I have to say. It's funny. I think I should try to make online friends, I don't know how hard that is.

Watched The void.
It reminded me why I hate "cosmic horror" and lovecraftian inspired bullshit.
It was so badly written and the only punch of it was the visual effects but I have seen better elsewhere in better films with better scripts that had better context behind them.

I tried reading some lovecraft and stuff inspired by his stuff and always wonder why the fuck such shit got popular. It quite honestly is shit story telling and not well written. I always come away from such stories annoyed. Also people who don't know fuck from shit really shouldn't write sci-fi because he doesn't know dick about science, the occult, other cultures, or really much of anything and consistently gets most of the details painfully wrong.
This isn't a "it was back in the day so cut him some slack" thing because writers of the exact same time didn't consistently have the same issue. I have read low grade pulp adventure stories with more care about getting shit right and crafting a well structured narrative then any of his shit I have come across.

I had a real vivid dream where I could move things with my mind, big things such as buildings. Not only do that, but I could also travel without moving from my seat or leaving my house, so I did some space traveling and I was admired by this universe. My body never left my house but I could experience the rest of the world, that was my power, and guess what else… My grandpa was still alive and we talked and I decided to show him my powers, projected in real time what the earth looks like from space and galaxies, all right into our living room. He could see through my eyes. I lifted my entire house as well a good 3-4 inches above ground just to show him that my powers were real. This use of my powers proved to be problematic because not so long passed where I got a vision of an angry functionary, not from this world, but a parallel world, that got increasingly angry every time I did so much as move one small object, for his world, me moving things, meant earthquakes. I felt sorry so I stopped then, but he was already upset and seemed to know about people with powers like me and there was a system in place to stop me and he was going to voice his concern along many other public servants.

I was just happy to be able to see my grandpa who died 20 years ago. And it's funny because it seems I willed this dream into existence since I've been thinking lately about him and how we are so similar.

Productivity means living for yourself. You're probably dealing with needs you're not meeting and to maintain yourself you rely on "doing nothing" (which probably refers to a complicated host of behaviors that you are devaluing) to cover for the gaps as best you can.
Imagine a person that is fasting. While fasting, your life begins to revolve around this deprivation. Everything is about keeping up the fasting or experiencing the struggle. It's like a giant filter over the breadth of life. Having unaddressed discomforts can be very similar, it is difficult to take spontaneous action when you are already preoccupied with yourself. You need to leave some empty space in life. Motivation follows on its own.

 No.312551

I don't know if any of you dumb spergs or flaggots noticed, but Gogle is using AI sentiment analysis tools to pre-screen every single comment posted to YouTube in order to block anything remotely controversial or "dangerous" from ever appearing on the site. Every comment goes into quarantine and it takes ~15-60 seconds for the AI to either pass it or reject it. You realize that if Google can afford to run every single YT comment through an LLM based AI gestapo, we are at the point where they can use this technology on literally every single form of communication. SMS, voice calls, messenger apps, DMs, you name it. They can monitor everything you say for wrong-think and either censor you, establish a hidden social credit score, or just arrest you. How long before your smart TV, amazon echo, or phone are conducting sentiment analysis on the AI transcribed audio it picks up 24/7? Do you honestly think that it's not happening right now or is at the very least less than 5 years away? People joke about their "personal agent" who is monitoring everything they say, but with AI that is literally possible now. The "community guidelines" of a handful of corporations are going to become de facto law in western countries and you will have no method by which to discuss it or complain about it.
