You have to listen to this: [Bo Burnham - That funny feeling](https://youtu.be/ObOqq1knVxs?is=51TBLqACoG05NQ9U)

*suprised pickachu*

I turned 30 this year. Always wanted kids, but I just struggle so much with what kind of life is left…

It’s not the direct Americanization. It’s the loss of culture in the long term… sure, no one is stopping you now but let’s talk in 25yrs, when local businesses are outcompeted by cheap junk. The youth is already so influenced so what will that generation and the ones after that do? Go for cheap and junk… Crazy to defend this, but you have to understand the consequences on a long term…

It’s a sad take, but at least life in the present got a bit better. Air and water quality rose substantially. I even experienced it first hand, cycling next to empty roads, I couldn’t believe how much different the air was… so much better and fresher. But here we are 5 yrs later. Continuing to poison ourselves and everything around us at an even bigger rate than before…

Yeah, but the effects were big for such a short amount time. It shows even more we could do so much more for improving our planets health, but we just choose not to… So painfully hopeless

The heat

Time to watch 'Inside' of Bo Burnham again and feel somewhat of a connection with humanity dealing with it's downfall...

You'll love the album Incest the Rats nest by King Gizzard from 2019. Basically a storyline album about the end of the world and the rich People leaving behind the poor to go live on Mars.. [Mars for the rich](https://youtu.be/SBBOafCUC5k?si=Es8yY61kt3I91sYb)

And his mom is practically made of cum

Microplastics are going to stay, we're not.

This is so fucked. That a man, with such power and influence, has this state of mind... Fuck this shit man, just fast forward to the point we're all just dead because this is just so fucking worse

Well, how the f*** can you answer a hypothetical? And since when is the Financial succes of the presidential campaign equal to being the best choice of president?... That has nothing to do with potential policies, etc... And can be influenced by so many external factors.. How can you possible think that is even a valid argument to the discussion?

Soon he'll be mining space so he can become the richest guy ever, while millions cheer him as our saviour... Fuck this timeline

So was Idiocracy

Best form of birth control tbf

Not to mention nature itself would be better without it. But that can apply to the whole human race of course

Lol yeah, wtf is that guy complaining about

Never felt so heard and understood. Never been so in awe of a young entertainer, hitting the nail on the head so perfectly, whilst still bringing an incredible level of comedy. 'Inside' will always be the show that makes me feel all the feels...

That's gold lol

And no animal had to die for it. That's like, the main thing

1 day old rice in the fridge makes the best fried rice though

Capitalism fuels psychopathy

Oh, they'll outlast us for a few years, maybe some decades. Can't imagine it'll be a good life. I don't see them setting their greed aside to survive collectively so they'll just die in their bunkers some time later. Nature will always win, because that's all we are and all there is. A few billionaires with 10y food supplies in a bunker aren't going to defeat Nature. Nature always wins, now, in a 100th years and in a 1000 years

This is my only Silver lining.. I know my life will be fucked, I'll never have to comfort and ease of living like I saw my parents had. I have come to accept that. I'm terrified of the future but atleast Nature will prevail once more

Wait what??! This would kill me instantly

Yes, but a design to maximise profit, not to cause direct societal collapse

Imho, I don't think this dystopian world is directly by design. Just the result of a blind obsession to maximise profit, over all other things

When i was younger, I dreamt I'd a similar life as my parents. Then, with growing concern of climate change, the impact of processed foods, nanoplastics, socio-economical wars, etc etc.. I feared my future and wish i'd still have some chance at surviving the next 70years, in who knows what kind of landscape.. Now, at age 28, I'll be glad if it all ends soon because there is just so little to be hopeful for.. Fuck humanity

Finally I see this. I always found collapse aware people to be more intelligent generally, but the comment sections under a BTC post always show me they aren't.. How can you still not see we've been letting us rob blindly since '71? All the information is out there but people can't even be bothered to do proper research.. Collapse will be inevitable with a society like ours

Same can be said about fiat.. Decentralisation of money should be a number one priority. If you don't understand why, and have arguments like 'makes it easy to scam our elderly'.. you are just not educated on the subject. Do yourself a favor and hit the books. You are making yourself a fool

Late twenties here, and I relate hard to your last paragraph. I wish I wasn't so aware of all this like my family, my colleagues, friends,.. It gets very lonely. It's a very hard pill to swallow but atleast I'm allowing myself to start accepting the unliveable fact that we won't have a positive future, due to errors of the past. Most people who live in ignorance are going to freak out the moment some chance disprupts their daily life. I'll never be prepared physically for all that's to come, but maybe mentally I could start preparing myself and maybe react better when SHTF. Ignore as much of the mindless out there. Find people who can relate to you and try to enjoy our time here. We know it's only getting more valuable... I'm really starting to be thankfull for every day. Get in to nature as often as possible, atleast she is still trying her best ;) Even if I have to drive 30 minutes on shitty concrete roads, in a shitty car I can barely afford, stand in traffic, .. to get to a small forrest that's littered with trash, not really peaceful because I can still hear the cars and train going by and it's crowded as hell with mtn bikers and joggers,.. It'll all be worth it to see that small mushroom body peaking through the grass next to the empty beer can. Or see 2 birds building their nest, some rays through the branches, another happy soul greeting you hello.. I don't know how long I'll get to enjoy that, but I'll be forever thankfull I got to experience that gift of nature. It's a mental struggle but never forget that out there, far away from all the shit we caused, it's so beautiful. (And that's why I think we don't deserve it. On an individual level, sure most people I've met are decent of course. But collectively we just suck. End of story. We are too evolved. Our nature will always be to rule, which is inherently corrupt. We're a mistake, destined to fall. Let's try not to take as much with us as we can...)

I fully agree with your statement. On a person level, the self-sustainable, c ommunal living style is something I support and even love to be a part of some day. I don't carry that attitude in my personal life and definitely don't wish some sort of global collective human wipe out. In my previous comment I'm theorizing a total collapse of the human kind. I don't believe that in a relative small scale of \~1000 years communal living would survive all that is to come. Attacks, mass migrations, vector diseases, natural diseases, change in atmosphere,.. PS: This is just a personal opinion, based on what I believe is the best information from respected sources, I could find. I do worry a lot about the future of mankind and have to make a conscious decision to remind myself to also let all of this go, as often as possible even. The time we have should be spent enjoying it and bringing positivity.

Well first of all, f you for insulting me. English is not my first language, so I just have difficulty explaining myself. I know collapse is nothing new, many civilization have come and go. I should have said current civilization. Our own inventions will be our death. The planet will go through massive changes because of it and no H. Sapiens will survive that. If you think the last 30 years were climate change, buckle up for the next 300 years. Mass migration, vector diseases, rising ocean level, rising CO2 in our atmosphere,.. Most of us won't even get to see that because food shortages will probably be the first major hammer to strike and cause a first ripple of mass killings. You don't seem to comprehend the scale of what our current civilization is depended on, the impact of the last 80 years of human living and you seem think history is just a rinse and repeat. Modern day human isn't the same as a person living in the bronze age.

Oh yeah, you definitely have to if you want to enjoy your life in a normal way. Enjoy your day!

True, but it won't be the same since after civilization. We used to be connected, unified in towns, tribes or even nations. We mostly fought others because of political or economical reasons, some important figure felt were necessary. There was an infrastructure. When we reach the collapse tipping point, all of that will fall. There will be no infrastructure guiding people what to do, telling us whose the enemy and whose an ally. It'll be a free for all and that will be new for the vast majority on this planet.

Just my opinion: Honestly, I don't think we'll adapt. We are going so far off the rails, there is no coming back. Newer generations have no clue and it's a matter of time before we turn on eachother. This is really dark, but I actually hope we don't make it. We don't deserve it. We are like a metastatic growth to this planet and then claim that we will prevail. Our collective cognitive dissonance is at max peak

Shit isn't going to fall in one year. Get a sense of scale. The collapse is already happening, it's been for more than decades. This will be a painfully slow torment and if you are already acting like this because of the news, I don't know how you'll survive the next 20 years

Stop fearmongering dude. There's is truth in what you are saying, but if you aren't going to act level headed in these situations, I have no idea how you'll react when SHTF. This is a place to inform, let people draw their own conclusions is instead of rallying them up

I wish more people would finally see this.. All I get as reactions is the look 'You really believe that? conspiracy nut..'

How can you f up spaghetti?

King Gizzard's 'PetroDragonic Apocalyps' is really scratching that itch IME

The entire discography of King Gizzard and the Lizard wizard. If you want to stay in the metal lane, the albums 'Infest the Rat's nest' and 'Petrodragonic Apocalyps' would be perfect. Also the song 'Gaia' from the Omnium Gatherum album is great

Being dependent on agriculture isn't a bad thing, like local regenerative agriculture. That's how we thrived for thousands of years. We wacked the whole planet out of wack with decennia of industrialized global monoculture. Grow your own food; be self sufficient and conscious of our relationship with food and nature. Restore your own body's health as well as the micro ecosystem around you. We all need to be doing this asap
