What does the world need more of? - Lemmy.World

Lemmy

Empathy.
A little less talking and a little more listening.

LOVE

Hope.
We need to be making actions to give us hope
Braless women in tank tops
Tough to argue with that.
Is this why Friends reruns are so popular?
Nah we watch it for Chandler
I’m doing my part 😂
Biodiversity.
We honestly need to be not at the top of the food chain. We’d probably do a little less fighting I’d presume.
In that case, I’d guess only less against other humans
Yes that was what I meant 😅
More appreciation for how good people have it.
Selflessness

Cowbell.

But more seriously, empathy and an absolutely gigantic reduction in greed.

More rehearsals of what's happened in September 2 1859, but multiplied like never before.
High quality salads. Enough with the bagged American and factory dressings.
Here in Europe we get high quality mixed raw salads rinsed and ready to eat, and while in the beginning I thought “ugh, more plastic packaged food- what for?”, now I can’t do without them. Five different types of salad in a bag I can just open and pour out with any meal is a godsend, it’s not expensive either.
Quiet spaces. Just sitting and breathing for a while is a valuable activity. It doesn’t have to make money to be worth doing.

Chill.

Both literally (global average temperature) and figuratively.

Critical thought.

That actually solves every other issue in this post.

Except empathy. You can still decide to keep people as slaves when it benefits you and you don’t have empathy.

Empathy is critical thinking. Putting yourself in the other persons shoes requires thought and effort, at least to develop it. From there it can become more intuitive.

The people who omit critical components to their thinking, like other people, beings, the impact on the region and planet, are not critical thinking. At least not well.

Love, sweet love
Evil men facing consequences
Women too. Fuck ghislaine.
What the world needs now, is another baby
Oh-whoahoh 🎶
Love, sweet love, no not just for some, but for everyone
Dead billionaires
Tenderness. Where is the tenderness? Where is it?!
Many great comments. I’d like to add green&walkable cities :3
Komodo Dragons. Apex predators in general. It would do humanity a ton of good if we were being actively hunted at all times of the day. We’re built for that. Keeps us on our toes and down to earth.

It would do humanity a ton of good if we were being actively hunted at all times of the day.

We are, just by society - i.e something we haven’t evolved to survive being hunted by. We’re much like dodos.

Thinking time.

The first mover advantage is so overwhelming in so many arenas. If we had the time to think we’d probably make much better decisions.

This is so true. I’ve realised that the root of my success is that I think about things more deeply and/or more often than pther people, and I’m more patient. I started to lose that part of myself and then started to fall behind. Now i’m on the path back, making my life less hectic andntrying not to fry my dopamine receptors
Home phones; no shitty portable emotional energy drainers in your pocket.
Question was more, not less.
Empathy
Empathy for people you don’t personally know
It’s not really empathy if one can’t apply that sense outside one’s own personal relationships- that’s just sparkling selfishness.
A new species that humbles humans.
