  • Kevin spacey is the last person I’d call innocent, what with the distinct number of people that go against him get involved in mysterious fatal…accidents

    And his ‘I’m back’ and ‘kill them with kindness’ videos

    Its also a false dichotomy to say that a legal system such as America’s is going to treat trump and spacey the same way and ‘they can’t acquit one and convict the other when they both did the same crime’ They went up against VERY different courts under distinctly different circumstances (despite both of them diddling kids)


  • To tack on to the “Exercise really helps” messages; I can definitely recommend checking your local areas for things like climbing or bouldering gyms (Bouldering is the one where the wall is shorter but more ‘technical’ and you use crash mats instead of ropes) The people that frequent these gyms are usually real welcoming to new climbers, and the sport itself is a satisfying mix of having a low cost to entry, only being as difficult as you want it to be, thrilling when you finally figure a route or feel yourself progressing, and a little mentally involved (planning routes, judging distances and learning safe techniques)

    (There’s also a lot to be said for just going for a walk, since that’s so cheap it’s free, but there isn’t aircon :D)


  • Absolutely 100% agreed on the “go for a walk” recommendation.

    Take half an hour out of your day to raise your heartrate, you’ll not only get your brain to start processing the things it’s dealing with, but you’ll also get exercise and a change in scenery.

    If the weather’s trash, clean or tidy your living area, the effect of having a clean space is very well documented (the “Even as a human, you are still an animal, and animals in enclosures get stressed and depressed if there’s mess everywhere, so take charge of your own space and make it a comfy one.” Meme that’s floating around is genuinely real and not just lip service)

    Personally the ‘I can’t motivate myself’ thing is a trap I’ve fallen into many times, and just about the only thing that helps me is by saying “Bugger it. I’ll do a little bit, and if I get out there and really ain’t feeling it, I’ll have at least done something.”

    Above all else, taking care of your body is a fast track to your brain feeling better




  • Wouldn’t that be the gpt user that posted this screenshot? Someone making some kind of “I’m getting back at those pesky AI companies by costing them money” … by pressing the "push to run a machine that burns the planet’ button?

    Or worse yet, it’s an accelerationist willingly pushing the button.
