I honestly can't imagine thinking this is what one wants to do with their time. Like, I accept that I can't understand this sort of racism and such, but like, even if I was a bigot I can't imagine deciding that what I'm going to do with one of my afternoons is drive around threatening a child's birthday party.

But also, it amazes me that white Americans manage to feel aggrieved by black Americans even today. We're the ones who keep fucking them over not the other way around.

Around 2010 I realized the more I saw of my casual acquaintances the less I liked them and quit. I didn't make many great decisions at 16 but that was one

You need to find social hobbies. I'm an extrovert, but my wife is an introvert. She still got herself together and went out to engage socially and that's how we met. It'll take time and effort, but if you show genuine interest in people and spend time with them you're likely to eventually find someone

Nobody's kicked me off yet, you'll be fine

I guess I do. I'm mostly in favor but not like super firm about it. Except in the context of as automation reduces the amount of work needed I believe it's one of only a few options without which society is at serious risk. The other main option is to drastically reduce working hours without changing pay to increase number of jobs. I actually prefer the latter.

One that I don't expect to see here is biz barclay. If a 3 hour video of a woman with ADHD getting drunk and doing literary analysis sounds even remotely enjoyable you'll love her content. A good starter video is her video on attempts to subvert the manic pixie dream girl trope, and why she doesn't believe it's possible to succeed at.

Yeah Folding Ideas is one of the few youtubers I often make a point to watch with my wife as an event. As is Hbomberguy

Similarly, I know controversy follows her everywhere, but contrapoints maintains very good content, and while some of her videos have their issues they tend towards high quality and extremely well thought out, even when I don't entirely agree with all of the takes she has in them.

Every once in a while say in a mocking voice "we demand to be taken seriously, seriously guys stop doing art, we don't like it"
