i dunno man..
im not trying go be too hard on people, but this Back to School Amazon ad…
plastic coat, plastic bag for plastic pencils, plastic bottles of plastic glitter jelly, plastic wireless headphones to listen to things on a plastic tablet…
Your Rockefeller back to school bundle.
With so many people supposedly wanting to get off hydrocarbons you'd think plastic would not be so popular. You don't think most people are clueless do you?
i think 80% of the population have a hard time thinking past what is immediately in front of them. which is why those who seek money and power work so hard to control what is in front of them.
Fuck 'think'. There is no doubt about it imho
80/20 rule
I can’t for the life of me understand why people around me don’t make the connection between the obvious decline in purchasing power they’ve experienced over the past 5 years and the debasement of our currency. Most are not even questioning it.
I think the powers that be discovered long long ago that humans are, on average, about as smart and as easily influenced/frightened to move here and there as cattle, and should be treated as such.
The problem with this country now is that so few are willing to trade their life or their freedom for the principles on which this nation once stood. Mostly because of the slow creep of the theft of time, and because we aren’t missing meals. Yet.
Until we lower our tolerance for tyranny to the point where the mere denial of our dreams and our plans spurs us to extreme action, nothing will change.
I feel a sense of shame that I am not out striking fear into those who would oppress us. A small team of dedicated men could grind this all to a halt.
And then I look at around me at those who depend on me daily for their security, and I think I am doing what I should.

i dont think it’s time for that yet. im being honest, and id say otherwise if i believed it.
i feel like what we shoukd be doing right now is making them irrelevant in our own lives, and then once we know how to do that, help others do it.
let them wake up one morning and realize the people are not obeying them at all. they have their own money, their own community, infrastructure, communications…
then if they want to get rowdy…
Yeah, it’s just really getting to me though, seeing the days slip by with so many plans and dreams and ideas for delivery of value to the world going unrealized. All I need is a little bit of capital.
Being denied well deserved and negotiated performance bonuses in a fiat job, while the owner of the business continues to amass capital and cry about being broke while sitting on a million dollars of receivables most days. Working 20% more hours since the early 2010’s for the equivalent of 2008 wages.
The worst part is, it’s the first job I’ve had in almost two decades that I really enjoy, and that doesn’t make me want to step into traffic or do a header off the roof most days because of stress. My employer knows he’s got me. If I don’t like it, I can go down the street and just barely break even there for six figures, doing shit that I don’t enjoy.
Oh well, at least I’m stacking.
i feel you.
the only thing i know how to do with that kind of thing is start asking God about it.
Either your being abused and you’re obligated to leave, or your total compensation including work you enjoy is adequate and you must choose to be happy. I don’t say that snarky either, I’m telling you a lesson it took me way too long to learn. Once I figured it out I admitted I chose to stay and had a moral obligation to be happy. Didn’t take long for the happiness to be genuine despite the fact I could make a lot more doing work I don’t like (which is probably why it pays more). Not telling you what to do as much as just sharing what I did and how it worked out for me. I’m sure you’ll find a path worthy of your passion.
well, this is why we stack tho
= Plastic sexuality...
I work at walmart. I was honestly shocked by how much plastic is just seen as normal. It certainly is not.

The problem with manufacturing, in general, is that the whole narrative has been changed. It is no longer considered valuable when something lasts forever and can be easily maintained, with cheap parts and readily available information. Manufactured items, along with architecture and building materials, have all succumbed to a horrific model where they are designed to fail or go out of fashion. The way we should be doing manufacturing and production has been completely turned on its head.
