There are also things I literally cannot tell anyone. Like a secret “agenda” (its not an evil agenda I promise)
It reminds me of a concept in Rememberance of Earth’s Past Book 2 (aka: Three Body Problem’s sequel) of something called the “Wallfacers” which are people selected to lead against the alien invasion, but they cannot reveal their strategy to anyone because those aliens can conduct surveillance anywhere, but cannot read human minds. So they are basically alone in their entire journey, making a public plan and telling people to implement those actions, but actually trying to implement their actual secret plans that only exist only in their head, to defend against the alien invasion.
Not to be a cynic, but you literally cannot know if other people have secret agendas. It could be a good thing like anti-tyranny plans, covert sabotage, etc… Or it could be evil like mass murder of innocents. Its impossible to know unless we have an accurate lie detector and/or mind-reading technology.
Its also interesting that I can tell my parents I wanna kms, and I know they won’t report me, and if they do, I can just accuse them of lying (I speak the language of this country better, they cannot win a he-said-she-said verbal debate against me) but I cannot tell a therapist I wanna kms, because their words would be more credible to courts. But I can rant about my parents to a therapist, but cannot say that stuff to my parents.

But also it literally doesn’t matter, those are all locked down and tracked, company won’t lose a dime (its also insured even if they can’t recover it)
(Also: Pretty sure this is an old story, like severals years old lol)

I don’t really care that much about Lemmy or any communications, I just want entertainment. I’m just too reliant on the internet for entertainment. I have zero cd/dvds, not even sure if the DVD player works anymore. TV is 15 years old, those old TVs hurts your eyes (Its an LED tv but still…) when you look at it for too long, remote is already broken, the buttons on the tv itself are unresponsive half the time.
I mean, tbf, I don’t think anyone even has those anymore, everything is just online subscriptions and you don’t own anything.
People would bored so quick, DVD sales and DVD players (and I guess BluRays players and Bluray disks?) sales would boom. Like skyrocket and stores get emptied. That’s assuming we even survive past the initial hours.
Powegrids would go down, military communications will have issues. Potentially China could invade Taiwan amist the confusion.
Economic crash. Protests and riots.
Humanity could end with M.A.D. within a week.

By one account, Cavendish had a back staircase added to his house to avoid encountering his housekeeper, because he was especially shy of women.
💀 This is next level introversion, way too above my level.

No, there is no cool looking monster, I’m just alone and can’t move. Borrring. Its more like psychological horror. Like imagine there bing a ghost or something, that you can’t see but seemingly (psychologically) feel the presence of in your mind. And you also can’t run, since you can’t move. Way more creepy IMO.

Politically-induced stress aint going away until Jan 20, 2029, at the earliest… 🤷♂️ So I’m f’ed basically…

- Comment on Do Americans expect the NK protest to achieve anything? 4 days ago:
Its basically a massive “you are not alone” statement.
Because if the protests stops happening, and people start to feel like they are the only freedom fighter in a sea of authoritarians, then they might lose the will to fight, that’s why tyrants always want to shut down protests, they don’t want words to spread and eventually even the most peaceful of protests eventually becomes a revolution that will cause the downfall of tyrants.

The worst part about fediverse is there is not enough users for discussions about a specific tv show or anime 😕

Social media for antisocial people

Yes I am an alien. Its why I have an alien registration number. (sorry dumb joke lol)
But anyways, my childhood experience has been very alienating, always getting bullied.

how many of her threats has she actually acted on in the past?
Never actually done anything. Still terrifying to hear from a parent. I still remember that time when I was no even 8 year old yet, when my brother practically chased me out of the house. It was the most alone I’ve ever felt in my entire life, nobody to help me. My (former) country was dysfunctional at the time and I don’t think a “CPS” even existed. Those memories have been stuck on my mind recently. Being alone for those few hours were the scariest moments of my life, I haven’t even existed for that long yet, and my world was already in chaos. Even just those words, even empty threats are fucking terrifying. I try to sleep, I’m halfway asleep, for about like idk 10 minutes, then the dread comes in, sleep paralysis, with the fears of that day + all the shitty events that happened in my life all just coming back as if a huge bear just pounced on me. I couldn’t move (again, sleep paralysis), my heartrate goes through the roof, once I fully wake up from the sleep paralysis, I feel as if I just ran away from a fucking bear attack or something.
The first time I was restrained wasn’t actually the time when I got falsely accused of instigating a fight at school, it was way earlier. My older brother had a fight with me when I was probably somewhere around 5-8 and he fucking used those plastic zipties and ties me up. It was a long time ago, but those memories never went away, the memories are here with me after all these years, a whole decade and a half later. Law enforcement is so fucking terrifying. I hate being trapped in a place and unable to move.
Every time I watch people having a normal relationship with family, I just cry in happiness for the family, even if its in fictional media, and I just delve more into my memories and try to imagine an alternate timeline. Tears are always in my eyes, but sometimes the emotion part of my brain is so drained its hard to even properly cry.
I wonder if thing like lead or other food poisonings have turned my family into the way they are. Food regulations were very lax where I was from. Even baby formulas have fakes, nobody trusted baby formulas, they even had to smuggle in foreign baby formula. It wouldn’t be surprising if its just chemicals fucking up society so much.

- Comment on Is there a way to listen to only the radio topics I actually care about? 1 week ago:
Like AM/FM?
Pretty sure those are effectively defunct except for constant adverts or emergency use.
I mean, people used to use Shortwave Radios to receive info from foreign countries when they live in an authoritarian regime, but nowadays, most of those Shortwave radios got shutdown and now its filled with religious broadcasts and conspiracy bs. People just use a VPN for foreign info these days. AM/FM is going through the same fate.
- Comment on Hardest version I've seen yet 1 week ago:
Its just an internet meme to “do not move the cat” while its sleeping, because its Anthropomorphism, becauae typically if you distrub a human baby, they’re gonna cry, so not disturbing them is a polite thing. So they’re extending this principle to pets.
Realistically, you can pick up a cat and move it somewhere and they won’t be bothered, they’ll just go back to sleep within 10 seconds. (Only applies to your cat tho, don’t touch a stray cat, they might bite)
