the way job interviews are done is so cringe...why are humans like this? why is corporate like this? T_T

and yeah, I think i remember hearing that figure somewhere, the 100k one. I hope I can make a decent amount someday...I just want to be able to make my perfect computer set up! and possibly buy a warehouse to design and turn into a house- AHHH pls

Man I would love to have a whole room just for sets and Legos in my dream home, but buying a house is sooo difficult nowadays (╥﹏╥)

You and me both, hoping to fund our hyperfixations lol

please let us fund our hyperfixation, its a simple enough ask, nothing too complicated...

as much as i hate how important money is, i wonder what the alternative is...someone has to do an experiment with a small group of people to see if we can find new ways to structure society

I think people have tried quite a few alternatives, though nothing really works. We just gotta thug it out I guess.

I just want to build kits and Letos all day aaaahhh T_T

T_T

imagine a company/government branch whose entire job is running experiments to find alternatives to the current way of life, sustainable at the scale of our current population. They take a small group of volunteers and send em off to an island telling them to recreate society in whatever way they know how. They're given a problem, like the problem is economy or money. Their version of society can be identical but they have to address the shortcoming that they're assigned.

so let's say a group of 35 people are shipped off to an island and they're told to terraform the island to their need, rebuild society and address their assigned problem: Wealth Inequality...and you let the experiment run for a few generations during which there will be no contact between them and the rest of society, other than the scientists who will simply observe the attempt take place.

that would make for such an interesting plot of a dystopian story.

That’s a good idea for a story! And there are some books and shows with that plot.

However the last time someone was given and island irl, things didn’t go that well 0_0

Fuck I didn’t even think of that-

Are humans a doomed species?
Now that I think about it, we’ve noticed by observing a lot of cults that they keep devolving into sexual abuse, it’s crazy how often that keeps happening… GOD DAMN IT this idea was doomed from the start.

Yeah lol
In my honest opinion, humans are too neurotic and greedy to have unchecked power. All of these situations; cults, the infamous island etc. happen when one person just has free reign to do whatever they want. If you can have a system where no one person or one specific group can have uncontrolled reign, people act relatively okay. Most problems derive from those reasons.
