Everything that can go wrong appears to do just that.

The vast majority of things we worry about never end up happening, and even the ones that do are almost never as bad as we imagined. Things are good in my personal life, and I refuse to go down weighed by worries over things that probably won’t even happen or that I can do nothing about.
Things could have always been worse
They could also be better.
But this post is talking about the worst timeline, not the best
This isn’t dark comparetively speaking.
We’re born too early to see world peace. We’re born too late to be set on fire on the market square.
But not wrong enough to end things, as we wouldn’t be here to discuss it.
And not good enough to end things, as we wouldn’t be here to discuss it either.
Don’t want to be a toxic positivity preacher but what if due to our nature we simply pay little or no attention to things that go right?
Yes.
I always say the Internet is more vast than it is comprehensive. You will find infinite things. Infinite good things, but also infinite bad things, and infinite things on most topic.
But certain actors on there have an interest to highlight bad things. That makes it real easy to slip into a negative feedback loop. And there’s so much, you will into a bottomless hole.
And that’s when you always gotta peek your head over the horizon and look for things outside of your periphery. Because there’s more than problems.
Even if you look back at where we’ve come from, the amount of struggles we’ve overcome already as a society is hard to fathom.
My point is, either look for both negative and positive news accountings, or do neither and focus on a topic like games, or woodworking, or astronomy and just keep away from the sensational news pieces.
There’s more to life than news anyway.
These are the same creatures that go bellows over brimstone if they flip a water bottle that lands upright ?
True and then we risk genuinely sounding ‘first world problems’. Just be grateful and move on i say.
Hitler was a first world problem for more than just the first world.
Hitler talk out of nowhere? Dam they weren’t kidding when they said lemmy was charged. I wasn’t talking about that “first world” 😂
is that why my goatee and mustache keep falling off ?
Yup. Somewhere out there Jeff rolled a 1 and now we’re all boned.

The guy who used to hang with Mr T, or the other guy?
The one that loved it when a plan comes together.
Could still be either one!
You’re right. One of them enjoys a cigar and shooting bad guys with a machine gun (even if he never hits anything but scenery) and the other loves a nice Chianti with grilled brains. I was of course refering to the former.
Sod’s law, innit?
We are the only timeline, and everything is somewhat ok-ish, better than ever before at least.
Somebody has been reading Steven Pinker.
