I like to cook and bake so those are kind of my hobbies. I cut everything out of my life when I was unemployed and that’s where the money obsession comes from. I don’t ever want to be homeless again. Money equals security to me. Plus lifelong depression means I don’t actually get happy about anything, except food. My goal is just avoiding pain.

No, do you?

How many bedrooms do I need to be a cat lady? Maybe I can find meaning here… I’m thinking 2, the second one is an extra 80k or so.

You’re a good person Bongles. Number goes up is my security blanket but you are right about trying things. Poverty makes me dull and I’ve trained myself to do nothing and spend nothing. I do cook though so that’s something.

Im on anti depressants my friend :) yay drugs! It has improved things. Meaningful? I don’t even know what that means.

I sold my etf last week. Maybe I should buy again. I’m supposed to buy a place to live though. Apparently that takes a lot of work and research and you have to hire multiple people to check that the other people aren’t lying too much and I’m tired. Buy shitty flat or buy nice flat?

Sure, why not Lem?
- Comment on Im stupid but have money 5 days ago:
Meaningless number go up = security and not being homeless ever again. Unemployment taught me that money is the only thing that matters. So I’m terrified of letting go of it. My bank account is the only thing that has ever made me feel safe. This is not inhuman.

Which one?
- Comment on Im stupid but have money 5 days ago:
I wouldn’t do anything. Take your time away but don’t ask people like me, I have nothing to do. A hobby would be healthy but my bank account going up is my hobby.
- Comment on Im stupid but have money 5 days ago:
I never compare myself to others. Interesting question. So no. Consistently happy? No, lifelong depression, the goal here is avoidance of misery, happiness is not an option.
- Comment on Im stupid but have money 5 days ago:
I have antidepressants and you’re not wrong. I was also poor for a long time and convinced myself that I dont actually need anything that costs money. Hence the 6 figure bank account.
- Comment on Im stupid but have money 5 days ago:
if you have no hope, then I don’t see the point in having good finances.
Guess youbansweted my question.

What if you think the whole system is going to collapse, or you hope it’s going to collapse, what is the financial advice for climate change meets trumpistan?
- Comment on Im stupid but have money 5 days ago:
Im leaning towards this but the thing is that I don’t actually want to do anything. I have no desires aside from sit on couch and drink. There is nothing I enjoy aside from food and booze. I can do whatever I want, I’m incredibly lucky, and I just want to be be unconscious.

Dude I’m almost 50 and only rented. Irritating living situation is the norm for me. Saving 3k per month is kinda fun.
- Comment on Im stupid but have money 5 days ago:
The shitty flats have been the same price for a decade, plus the goal here is to stop moving. I’ve rented too many places, just want a home.

The llms have impressive mathematics but can it cure cancer or create world peace? No. Can it confuse people by pretending to be human? Yes. Put all that compute to work solving problems instead of writing emails or basic code or customer service and I’ll care. I hear that AlphaFold is useful. I want to hear more about the useful machine learnimg.

Police shoot Americans every day and they put up with it. I’m not expecting them to rise up any time soon. The revolt was voting for Trump to burn it down lol
- Comment on Deepfake porn is destroying real lives in South Korea | CNN 8 months ago:
and that is the main problem with this kind of technology.
In your opinuon.
Your assumption that people need deepfake technology to fantasize about people sexually who have no interest in being on the receiving end of that is at best naive and at worst arguing in bad faith.
I never assumed or suggested any such thing. You are making shit up.
- Comment on Deepfake porn is destroying real lives in South Korea | CNN 8 months ago:
Prude shaming is exactly the same as slut shaming. Implicit in your comment is the notion that women ought to be perfectly fine with deepfake porn of themselves being created and viewed by anyone, but society has made them prudish through the demonization of nudity sex.
Women are people and have rights and feelings that should not be ignored simply to serve the male sex drive, and a great many women do not want to be deepfake porn stars. If you disagree then say so. Don’t hide behind the notion that society has robbed women of their desire to serve your fantasy through the demonization of sex. Sexual liberation includes the right to not have or be involved in sexual activity if one chooses. Prude shaming, like yours, is designed to remove that right.
No wonder 4b took off in Korea.

You seem to define work as holding a paid job outside of the home. I disagree with that definition.

You’re not responding to my comment, just throwing in your extremely simplistic agenda. Your suburban american 50’s dream was a blip in time and space that is meaningless to most people.
