    Okay good that’s totally reasonable. Been running into people who seem dead set on social and mental suicide because they think giving anyone money means you’ve adopted the entirety of their morals as well. Not great.

      Yeah its not worth going to those extremes. Like anyone else I’m selfish. Of course all of us going to live in caves would be far better for the environment but no one is doing that.

        Dude I would totally return to subsistence farming and taking a mule drawn cart to town if it meant I got to keep my internet connection and modern plumbing. The only thing keeping me from it now is property value inflation and the speculative housing market.

            Not nearly interested in beating women or children enough for that.

            Look I just want some decent food and I wanna play Factorio at the end of the day it shouldn’t cost 2000/mo to sustain that.

              Haha exactly…I got yelled at the other day for stating how hudderites have 50 year old men marrying 14 year olds and I was like…but they do. They aren’t good people.

              A person of simple means I respect.

              May I suggest, if you are gonna play video games inside anyway, move to middle america, get a wfh job and a cheap house and you can do that for 2k a month easily. Now youll probably have to live by magas and have no health insurance but yeah.
