  • But again, in my opinion, if you don’t know what you enjoy or what you’re passionate about, just do stuff that vaguely interests you anyway. I’m sure you’ve had a passing thought of “that seems kinda interesting, but on second thought, naah”. Just convert that “naah” into a “yea”. Maybe it does really suck, but maybe you’ll find something amazing for you to do. Once you actually do something and get involved with it, it may actually become more interesting than it seemed at the start.


  • In my humble opinion, ADHD meds aren’t really amazing. They’re there so we can survive in a world where we “need to get shit done”, i.e. be productive for capitalism.

    If theoretically you didn’t have to work, would you really “need” the meds? What does it really matter if those tasks you’re talking about take 2 weeks to do, if you have 2 weeks to spare?

    In the end, what you’re asking here is the age old human question of, what is the meaning of life? Because you’re asking what to do with your time on Earth. And so naturally, no one can answer you. Meds or no meds, what you do with your time you have in this life is for you alone to figure out.

    This “directly” distinction you’re making is not very relevant.

    Usually “direct” would mean that without it, it wouldn’t have happened. Yes, whatever broke the glasses would’ve happened without the glasses as well, but it likely wouldn’t have resulted in a scratched cornea. So yes, the scratched cornea is a direct effect of having worn glasses.




  • It’s not the absolute truth. But it’s most likely the largest part of the explanation.

    People like putting blame on “society”, and while societal pressures surely play a part, the reason it’s so nice to mainly blame society is because it creates a problem that has an acceptable solution.

    Because what do you say when you say society is mainly to blame here? You’re saying it’s completely fine for many men not to have sex. Just have to fix society making it hard for them to live without sex. If my assumption is correct though, that doesn’t help those men very much. But who does it help? Anyone those men would want to have sex with, because they’re not under “threat” anymore.






  • It’s literally the most natural thing in the world to equate reproductive effectiveness to worth. All life is “worth” their reproductive effectiveness. So not having sex is very relevant to our entire existence as a species.

    As such, our mental faculties put a heavy punishment in the form of mental pain, i.e. “self-worth attached to getting laid”, on this whole thing.

    This has very little to do with societal expectations. It’s simple biology. Not getting laid is supposed to be one of the worst things for an organism.

    You’re rationally right with what you say, but it’s simply not very relevant. Rationality does not help with our most deeply rooted biological desires. The only thing that helps is getting them fulfilled, i.e. having sex.
