Just rewatched True detective s1 and cohl spouting his internet atheism as special nuggets of wisdom was pretty funny. I mean he was right, though. No animal was supposed to develop consciousness and evolve to even have these thoughts. We are a singular abomination in this universe.

Suppose I must have bad luck, but I grew up on a farm on a hilly region, so everything was always hours away, and it was always a pain in the rear end getting anywhere and getting anything. Our neighbors were either miserable, overworked alcoholics or wealthy suburbanites on their over-done second houses. Other kids around either made it a point to leave and never come back or stayed and spend their free time trying to outrun cops whenever they got caught speeding, which was always.

The most prolific addicts I met very always rural. And I get it. There is loving nothing else to do.

Nothing worse than living in a big 'burbplex so you're surrounded by assholes, but its 20 minutes of driving on city streets to get to a store or gas station.

The country is nice because its quiet, but it invariably involves a lot more yardwork, and the internet sucks (if you live in the US) Also you have to cook for yourself all the time, and your neighbors are 99.9999% likely to be weird racist assholes

Inner city can be ok, but anywhere on the west coast is deluged in homeless addicts*. Also most apartment buildings are stick & podium modern tenements, so you can hear your neighbors drop a cup on the floor (also giant deathtraps if there's a fire)

Centrally located burbs w/o endless sprawl are cool and good, but they all cost a million dollars and never rent




*not all homeless are addicts, and not all addicts are homeless, but the ones you see day-to-day are.

This describes my dad's neighborhood perfectly. A woman drank herself to death on hand sanitizer. Dad is locked in specific, petty, spiteful battles with every neighbor on the lane. There's a well-known turn in the road that has monthly, sometimes weekly fatalities from speeding drunk people. There's the shitpoor people like my dad, and there's people who maintain a country estate for their horses, and nothing in between.

They're gonna be your average Joe shmoe who won't be playing too seriously and they'll make mistakes or play off meta and you'll generally have a good time with them

If it's something like

Apple takes tech rolled out by other companies years ago, sanitizes it with the Apple Touch and waters it down to be palatable to the average person. The type of person who never changes settings because they're "afraid of breaking it."

Agreed. When people say doomery poo poo about how everything is a hellscape of some sort, I initially agree and then think back to my past and where history has been and then chuckle.

Truth be told though, it is important that people think things are bad or else there's no impetus to change things, there's still lots to change even though much of the dialog is silly or naive.
