I have stopped reading facebook, twitter, news sites and papers and I stopped watching tv news or political-type youtubes. The news is a constant stream of fear-mongering, bad reporting, terrible politics junk and you cannot personally do anything about the things you hear that make you sad or angry or sangry.

I live in South Africa and I'm white so when my government decides to do a night of the long knives and genocide us whiteys, I want it to at least be a surprise.

My life has already improved dramatically, post your hot tips for being happy ITT

Genuine advice: It's ok to not give a poo poo about something even if it's in important issue and a lot of other people (even some you know) are invested in it. It's hard to get involved in anything in life without having personal investment in it so don't force it if you think you'd need that to be interested or you'll get high blood pressure.

Joke answer: dude weed lmao

If to live in this style is to be eccentric, it must be confessed that there is something good in eccentricity.

Isn't that the country of intense racism that stacked everything in favor of white people? I can see how you could have the luxury about not caring about the state of your world. I'm sure someone else will take care of everything for you.

I have to agree though that Facebook is just a waste of your time. I've stopped using it and never looked back. You can disable your account and keep Messenger.

The trick is palliative care. Get high and drunk and laid or whatever it is you need at all times, avoid feeling the pain, and with any luck you'll die before you notice.

This. Just keep in mind that 100 years from now, no one today will still be alive. Remember your great great grandparents names? Neither do I. What about their parents? Nope, not them either. I mean I'm sure there's exceptions and I'm not the rule. But anything and everything you're likely to do will be forgotten within generations.

Depressing? I prefer liberating!

Would you feel more liberated to learn you'd been forgotten in your own lifetime?
