It'll be terrible -- I'll have made decisions that ensure I'm secure against economic, social, and environmental shocks... I'll have been responsible with my finances... I'll have spent time with my son raising him to be a responsible and moral person even when things around him are spiraling out of control -- and for nothing!!!
I only recently started hearing about things being the way they are today where even once you leave they'll harass you with their legal system for years afterwards. I do believe it wasn't like this in the past.

Never go to NYC. Not even once. It is as close to a hell on earth as man has ever created.

The new emperors in the roman empire came from the military because they had to be somewhat real because if you weren't actually successful in real life in that age you'd die, but I don't think we could pull from the military today since it's so decadent. You can become immensely successful in the military without having won a single battle or perhaps even fought a single battle.
Who are the barbarians who will take over after the collapse? I think that's important to think about.

For people who pay for YouTube premium to not have to hear ads, the six ad reads per LTT video might seem a bit like piracy since they accept the ad free YouTube premium video money yet play ads anyway.
I hate it when I get cancelled by the woke left for culturally appropriating slightly too spicy food. Doesn't matter how much water I drink I stay cancelled.

A buddy of mine was telling me about it. It wasn't approved for use in Canada until 2022, but it was the most conventional of the choices out there.
If mandates do come back, I'll end up getting that one.

Hmmmm... 🤔
(I know, "Why the hell are you looking at that in 2023?" -- well, someone challenged me on some stuff so I dug up some official facts and figures to support my viewpoint.)

The one thing I found really confusing about this is that it implies that 50% of families in South Korea are on the road to becoming millionaires. It seems like it's more saying "among the familes that are doing well, this is the 50% level" instead of "50% of all families are doing this well"
Sort of makes you think. According to OECD data shown below, Canada and South Korea have the highest levels of postsecondary education among OECD nations. What's interesting is that both countries have problems that aren't recorded by numbers. South Korea is often called "hell Joseon" by its inhabitants because of its hypercompetitive business landscape, and Canada has big problems of high cost of living, insurmountable housing costs, and overall a really challenging environment to excel in. That suggests that these two countries have the highest levels of postsecondary education not for positive reasons necessarily, but because people feel if they don't do these things they won't be able to survive.
It seems to me like you can't really use "antisemitism" to talk about either side of Israel vs. Palestine, since both Jews and Arabs are Semitic people, but the word has never included all Semites.
On the other hand, often when referring to discrimination against Arabs, they'll call it "islamophobia", even though not all Arabs are Islamic.
And today I was talking about nihilism, and how it refers to something quite different than its etymological root seems like it should mean, "believing nothing", but instead it means "not believing in traditional meaning or values"
Is philosophy and sociology just the art of using clearly wrong words to describe things?
