I am in on the tea part but what news are you readig that it gives you peace??
Show threadwonderingwandererFeb 27

I think no human could possibly say something as ludicrous as “the news gives me peace.”

Is openclaw on lemmy now?

Stick to places lime [email protected] or news sites that are tailored to showing positive stories. You already know there are terrible things going on in the world, there’s no need to constantly cudgel yourself with them.

“shitposts”. You know, just some random image that means nothing, isn’t funny, and makes no point. That’s exactly what a shitpost is, yessir.

Is this AI? Can you photograph “the moon illusion”? I only ever saw the moon illusion once in my life and it was big like this.
Show threadGreg ClarkeFeb 27
This photo could be achieved with a telescopic lens

But there are distant trees on the horizon, so if this was, say, maybe a mile away to appear relatively small, those world have to be many more. That works only work on a flat earth.

Also, the moon and sun appear flattened when near the horizon due to atmospheric distortion.

I’m really struggling to figure this one out. I’m leaning AI myself but idk. I hate the constant questioning of if everything online is real now it fucking sucks. I want to be able to see a cool photograph and go “hey that’s cool” and move on

I hate to be that annoying fuck who mentions having money to get by.

But I have been broke for such a long time (until I started working on getting my life back on track), I even once got evicted from my then relatively cheap apartment in Berlin. I spent all the money I had back then on smoking pot. Tried getting away from my problems, mainly caused by being broke, by being stoned off my face 24/7. You can imagine how that went.

So yeah. 15 years later, having saved enough so I don’t have to worry about these things anymore is a huge deal for me.

Getting fully sober including quitting weed as an escape mechanism brought me a huge amount of peace, plus $500/mo back in money. I’m still struggling in many ways, took a huge pay cut to get into my current job (protected from AI for many years) but I have a savings account and a retirement account for the first time ever. Paying down debt, slowly. I get dopamine hits from interacting with people, fixing problems in my life. Instead of from a glass bowl and lighter, a bottle, etc.

Thanks to both of you, i really needed to hear this. I need to and am gonna quit. I aleady stopped drinking 1st of januari last year (i could bring myself to only drink on weekends, but still drank problematic amounts) which made huge improvements on my health but took quite a toll on my social life unfortunatly. I’m not really good with people and it was an easy mask to put on. But… Being high all the time (except when i’m at work) probably doesnt help with that. Im not really sure where i’m going with this comment. Thanks again for the inspiration. :)

I’m not good with people as well. You can’t solve all your problems at once, but you can take some weight off your shoulders. Every bit helps, every small step forward gives you a little more energy, a little more emotional wiggle room and belief in yourself.

Not gonna lie, it’s not easy. It took a long, long time for my brain chemistry to readjust so I could feel joy again from something else than weed. And I’m not sure if I could have done it without help from family and friends (the very few that I have).

But I am so glad that I somehow made it. You will be, too. I root for you, my friend, and I wish you well.

That’s awesome, man. Huge respect, I know how hard it is. I was very lucky to somehow get out of my debts, and it really gave me back an inner peace like I last felt when I was a teen without any obligations.

Life isn’t perfect, but hey, it never is. But I can at least take out my wife for a fancy dinner each wedding day and I don’t feel like a total loser anymore. Keep going, even if life throws shit at you, never ever give up.

Hiking. Alone. No technology along, just my walking stick and backpack. Bonus points when it’s foggy and I feel like the only person on the trail.
