And it only got worse.

    kinda, none of that seems to matter. sure, there is no future. i have spent years of my life detailing these things, talking to people, trying to get any kind of response.

    my conclusion is, as far as i could find out, other people seem to be fucking dumb, in the sense of: completely oblivious to the fact that what makes humans humans is being actively dismantled. people are zombies, dead inside, brainwashed individuals.

    i don’t think it’s like all these zombie movies on TV, i think the zombies are not gonna be violent mobsters who are gonna bite you and such and you defend yourself with a gun. the actual zombies are your neighbours, your coworkers, your family. people who are dead inside, just mind-controlled organisms who try to manipulate you to follow the hive mind. in that way they are “eating your brain”. they’re all around us. that’s the actual death of society.

      Always were.

      But the day is full of beauty. You can cook a great meal. Make music. Write poems. Dance. Love. You can feel and experience. Pet a dog or a goat. Walk a new road or notice a new rock on an old road. Breathe, in and out. There is always good available, even in the worst of times.
