In software quantity was never the problem.

Just heard the podcast about social media caused fomo ( https://pca.st/episode/fc237e66-5b33-40c6-a9b6-e6c4c673071f).
Especially when seeing content from the outdoors and thinking that those people always have a good life.

Two things about that:
I feel that too sometimes 😒
I really hope, my content doesn't cause this for you dear reader!

My life likely isn't better than yours. I just don't post all my negative and sad moments but try to bring some positive mood into this stream.

FOMO – warum wir Angst haben, am Berg was zu verpassen und was dagegen hilft | Talk

@zeank Isn't the left peak just on the Swedish side of the border?

My pic from a few years earlier, from the other side of the stream:

Mind/body duality is counterfactual gibbering nonsense.

People don't like that; they don't like being made out of meat, they don't like acknowledging that the dead can never be brought back to life, and they don't like the idea that their sense of self is in a bunch of specific literal senses delusional. (It's an emergent property of a bunch of biochemistry the meat is doing, sure, but it's also not especially accurate as a representation of the actual processes and events involved.)

The social problem with anti-depressants (and anything else that alters mood, really) is that it falsifies the mind-body duality that's axiomatically necessary for a bunch of religious positions.

Anything that posits personality survival after death, more or less, but not only those things; there are a whole lot of constructions of virtue that went "this is harder to do during privation so that version is better", too, which is not something that withstands much analysis.
