Getting stoned and playing guitar.

How would you suggest I do this and still be able to know what’s happening in the world?

"There's been this narrative for a while and there's some good reasons for it". This is the line where I say this feeling has been present for years for reasons completely unrelated to Donald Trump.

There’s been this narrative for a while and there’s some good reasons for it. It’s different for different people, of course, and a lot has to do with how each of us deal with these emotions and situations. But something is happening in the US that makes these things feel 10 times worse for many people. Our psyches are being assaulted seemingly 24/7 by one man and the cult that surrounds him and we’re normalizing it. When I was younger I would never have imagined the American people would vote for a man like Donald Trump. I’ve heard the response of “just stop watching the news” or “don’t pay attention”, but that’s basically impossible. Yesterday I saw a man who is president of the United States on a national TV show yelling and screaming at his interviewer who rightly pointed out there is absolutely no evidence for his assertions where his only reply was vitriol. And examples like this can occur daily. I’d say for most people they feel the heavy weight of the pall cast over the US from this administration.

Usually only if I want to reduce the risk of things being stolen out of my luggage.

That would be a great way to fund a UBI.

Probably happening in the US as well.

I play music. I sit silently and think. I read. I watch and listen to things.

That’s great. But I think you’re dealing with analysis paralysis here. You’ve already got more than enough things to choose from. Just start doing some of them.

You need to work on your social skills. It’s not that hard.

Entrepreneurs.

You really need to work on getting comfortable with sitting in silence because being alone with your thoughts is where wisdom comes from.

Oh man, let me introduce you to Christopher Hitchens. Unfortunately dead now, ha was an intellectual powerhouse who could cut down any argument for religion like a hot knife through butter. Start by searching Instagram for him. He’s also funny as shit.

And I'm happy to do so.

Well, Zuckerberg was so successful with his pivot to the metaverse so why not?
