It's a trap

Post Reply New Topic

Thanks for posting this link. This seems to agree with my experience that success in life is often related to luck/chance. The obligatory xkcd comic: https://xkcd.com/1827/

Honestly I've been seeing a lot of people getting so concertedly mad on purpose regarding L&D instead of just sitting & thinking that it's completely put me off this part of our culture. I don't see any good reason someone like myself would want any kind of conventional westernized relationship these days. I still love people who have generalized me.

As far as this rhetoric is concerned, nobody should settle for anyone, but that's not what I believe so that's not how I plan to treat people. We're all better than this. Everyone is whining on Facebook & Instagram now about "toxic" persons & how they should be shunned. No one is toxic, we're carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen & some other stuff. Relationships are not a trap, feverish constrained thinking dominated by a weekly news cycle of cynical clickbait is a trap. We've been told we just have to keep scrolling & eventually the perfect person shall be allocated to us. We already know all the people we need to if we have any friends at all.
