  • Pointing out that I think someone is being a bit unfair and overly generalising isn't making something a competition.

    It genuinely does take time for people to adapt. That's not point scoring.

  • Tbf, some people just throw mash potato over mince beef they've cooked with chopped tomatoes and soggy carrots. I used to think I hated it too, until I made it properly.

    However, I feel thats like deciding how good American food is based on next door's poor attempt at a dry meatloaf. We have plenty of bad cooks here who panic and make poor food that they take no time over. Maybe more than our fair share.

    Also, we don't cover up the taste of spoiling, poor quality, food by drowning it in sugar syrup and seasoning powder. That can take some time for palettes to adapt to.

  • Yeah, I'm not taking the "that's not indigenous food" from an American who im sure will unironically attempt to claim pizza and the hamburger steak as American.

    Sad to hear you don't like apple pie though. I thought you guys loved that one.

  • Too much meat and not enough fruit and vegetables. Not just your bowels, your heart will thank you too.

  • After a year of private psychotherapy, I'm considering taking a break.

  • To me, the best therapists teach you to be your own therapist. If they haven't done that then here in lays the problem with privatised medicine and the myth of its efficiency.

    Maybe you can combine your love of Japan and need for mindfulness with following the path of zen?

    In terms of self hatred and all those horrible things i know you say to yourself, would you say them to anyone else who had been through all the thing you have been through? Like, if you knew it for a fact? Of course not. Then, instead of showing all that empathy to someone who doesn't exist, maybe show a little to yourself? I feel like you need it more than a figment of your imagination. Also, I would recommend learning self soothing too.

    Wishing you all the best and I hope you find the peace you're looking for.

  • Thats why debate culture doesn't work. The truth is, the type on the right doesn't even care if they're wrong. You could give them a thousand things proving them wrong and they won't even read them.

    You could convince a friend maybe but this requires a huge amount of trust and good faith on both sides.

    However, ridicule does work because no one wants to join society's punching bag. An example of this would include foot binding in China where the upper classes sent their children off to foreign universities who mocked relentlessly for being from the foot binding country. I would recommend the book "the honor code: how moral revolutions happen" for more examples. It's a fantastic, easily accessible and short modern philosophy book by who I consider to be the greatest living philosopher (Kwame Anthony Appiah).

  • For sure and what always get deliberately left out of the productivity metric is that, wrapped up in those figures, we include how much money has to be paid out to lazy landlords and workshy shareholders in order to get an hours work from a British person.

    Essentially, the financial obesity of the super wealthy is crushing everyone below them and stifling productivity, ruining the productivity metric.

  • I see it as we're more labour-cattle in a human labour farm/plantation but I agree all the same.

    That's why I think it's more sensible to see money as human labour tokens and actaully adds back in a debt of something to money creation (money being debt and all). It works in the same way that cotton could be used used as currency in and around a cotton plantation.

    I.E. Money is created by either the central back or a private bank. Human labour works of the value of the money created. The debt is repaid, destroying the money, and the position is netted off to zero.

  • It's just as implausible as vaccines causing autism. So, I had some fun with it, presuming you're calling me a "dreamer" and you're not referring to something called "sci-fi dreamer."

  • We need some kind of vaccine to make sure this kind of thing doesn't happen to people. Maybe we could combine it with a mumps and rubella inoculation?

    I mean, it won't bother me. I'm already neurodiverse. So, vaccines only make me stronger.
