Damn that’s a lot more than I would think is needed. I think Craigslist had/has like 50 people so I figured you can still keep a business chugging along without a ton of staff.

I think that modern work is something done to us, as a form of violence. We’re told to go here, do this, and in return we get just enough to get by. Humans are definitely not lazy, but we do have a problem with slavery.

That seems like a lot to me considering the app could be put together by just a few people.

I keep making the mistake of commenting on things that I have no desire to dig into. Apologies if I was rude. It really is an interesting area if you find yourself curious about it one day.

That’s the goal. But I can’t reject the fact that I need to work. It’s gotta happen. And I also don’t want to be depressed all the time. My comment is kind of about learning how to keep doing what I need to do without being sad and or angry about it all the time.

I’ve always been envious of those people who grew up knowing what they wanted to do with their lives and then they did it. It seems like what we want is incongruent with what is available. It’s like they were born into something that was designed for them, but I think at least part of it is parenting and education. Doesn’t help that our world is kind of fucked up though. Hard to close my eyes to that and be excited about choosing a career. That and* we’re kind of serfs.

How I see this problem is that we aren’t given to tools to help us decide how we want to live our lives. Work sucks and is a waste of time. Contributing to society is valuable and something I want to do.

You’ll have to go and learn to find out! Can’t do any harm.

I like that idea. Continuing to make money, no matter if it’s just a few hundred dollars a month, is the main hurdle for me to leave. You’d still need to finance construction but it’s a good long term vision.

I am worried about fire seasons/smoke seasons. At best it shortens the tourist season and at worst I lose everything : /

Cottage rentals for income?

Currently my plan is to get far enough into my career that I can spend half my time in city making money and half in the woods

I think the idea is they spend all their time in instagram and don’t want to leave.

They need the ram not the processor

How is this line up with ‘liberty’? The US gov can’t stop intruding into the private sphere.

I think they do care about kids but it’s a dumb argument to take. Kids are helpless, everything can hurt them. Unless it’s something legal that is specifically causing kids harm and can be regulated, like guns, then bringing kids into the debate is just going for easy points.

If you learn more about political science you’ll find that there is more nuance, it’s not so simple as all or nothing.

This is a baseless claim I don’t know why it’s getting support other than the fact the people seem to like hating on a tool.
