Shitty pay, crappy hours, being surrounded by the dead all the time… You either gotta love the job or end up loving the dead…
Some jobs need to be done, but who’s to do them? Can one be completely sane and handle this kind of life without issue for years on end? Most of the people employed tell themselves it’s just a job and spend their time dodging the reality of handling the dead all the time, but a few… well… they go all in.
Normal is a state of mind that has us come to grips with that which is beyond our control.

I disagree. It may take a long time for a food product to enter mainstream consumption, but I can assure you some people will try to eat even poisonous potato berries as soon as they’re first found.
- Comment on Knowing that boomers had the "hate my wife/husband" humor because they were rushed to marry borderline strangers and didn't believe in therapy but can't prove it 1 week ago:
For most of known human history, marriage - or its equivalent - has been seen as an obligation. To marry freely or not marry at all are modern sensibilities.

Unrelatable. Can’t stay like that in bed for that long.

Life is an incorrigible gambler and every creation is a risk it’s not afraid to take. Win or lose, it will keep betting, not because it has a goal, but for the love of the game.

I’ve recently come to understand that it’s more of a gacha loot box where traits from several generations are being rolled and the rarest rolls aren’t necessarily the best.

Very realistic. If the glasses get hit, the shards go into your eyes.

That’s to find it for the others to see. Look through binoculars, see what it is, then look directly to confirm direction and point at it.
- Comment on Why do they turn Federation into a dystopia? 1 month ago:
A lot of stuff is insinuated. Such as there’s no overpopulation issue on Earth due in part to WW3 which decimated it globally and in part due to a lot of groups leaving to create their own colonies, with their own local rules.
Far as I remember, which may be wrong, people on Trek Earth live more freely and more spread out. The Picard vineyard is an example of doing something because you want to and at the same time, continuation of the family tradition.
But freedom doesn’t mean automatic success. Humans are still humans. We have our emotions and a state of mind which changes with the weather.
Trek Earth guarantees a standard of living, but it cannot guarantee happiness.

It was explained that in mirrors, we see ourselves directly and distort our self perception based on our state of mind (beautify or uglify).
Cameras on the other hand don’t give a shit and show more or less what it is objectively… Unless its user fucks it up in some way.

That’s silly. If professionals can’t subdue a person completely out of control, you can’t expect a layman to do the same.

I would think it’s usually by family members of the patients, but to be a patient in the hospital, your body is no longer obeying regular functions, so the unexpected becomes the norm.
