The only winning move is not to play. Get away from the internet forums and live your life in the real world. Alas we are all stuck here.

Seems like it. I went to church today for the IDK consecutive Sunday and it was all right.

Not the "Western civilization is declining because the kids stopped going to church" church but a church full of old hippies and young queers. It's been fun, sometimes I get takeout on the way home

I'm also tending my own website, which nobody else has write access to, so that I can link people to information I've vetted myself. Can't link it without doxxing myself sadly

Likewise been going to synagogue. I would hardly call myself a religious person. Far more a nihilist who thinks we should try and do good if it is truly all pointless. I think the meaningfulness and the sense of community is nice. It’s typically better than being glued to the kinetoscope

The common thread is that people need community. Living detached physical lives and using the internet to fill that gap is a modern disaster.
