  • and murderer, but hey

  • my car still has a cigarette lighter actually

  • this is the way. write a list, put it on the table while youre getting ready, get to the store, check your pockets, say FUCK in the store. do your best from there.

  • I forgot I was on lemmy for 30 seconds, thank you

  • OK!

  • According to the article: have children, period.

    Otherwise, existential dread will consume you and you'll never leave the house.

    The graph makes it look like there is some science behind the article, but it is just the author's musings about his kids and holidays.

    The author goes as far as to state he no longer has to worry about the heat death of the universe because he had children.

    For what it's worth, he describes the known phenomenon that novel experiences feel longer than routine ones, then asserts that seeking novel experiences make you resentful without any evidence of that assertion at all.

    I can say that in 2025 I wound up doing so much that it was BONKERS. I had two friends visit from the US and went to Spain, Germany and France for concerts and festivals. I ran an event in October which felt like its own universe. I cannot BELIEVE it was this May that I saw Bad Religion play in Valencia (and then again in Barcelona). I realize not everyone can afford to do all of that, but Im in my 40s and I work a lot and prioritize these things financially so I can.

    On a day where you drive, take a shuttle, then a plane, then a light rail, then a bus in places you're unfamiliar with the day feels so long I find myself saying "can you believe that was today that that happened?" So yeah, doing a bunch of new stuff absolutely is what makes time feel longer, and everythings new to kids. Do the same stuff every day, every week and life will zoom by.

    Or have kids to absolutely extinguish your dread of existential meaninglessness and have a double helix existence with your children...

  • is that like a microsoft teams esim?

    if so, I mentioned in a previous comment here my old phone cant use esims

  • my dude, you have a sister who is going to chatgpt for facts, Id feel that she's in a lot more trouble than being a trump supporter.

  • yeah mint had a three month minimum

  • theres also 48.ie and I think I pay €8 monthly. no international calling though

  • cell (mobile) service is just way, way more expensive in the states. no justifiable reason, just cause they can and all do.

    I pay €8 monthly for unlimited everything except international calls (its my work phone) and I think €20 for the other one.

    I was just in the US for christmas and wanted data etc but my phone doesnt support eSim and the cheapest sim only plan was at&t and it was $40, it had a data cap of some kind and required a $15 activation fee. I used a lot of wifi during this trip.

    my wife's phone can do eSim so she had unlimited everything for €25 or something for the ten days I believe, with Holafly.

    In a past life I worked at the biggest telecoms company in the states and we'd be encouraged to sell people $89.99 a month and that still had a limit to "minutes". We also learned that the towers emit radiation 24 hours a day, and modulating said radiation costs the company essentially nothing at all, so the "minutes" thing is just pure profit

  • its like going to the airport and hoping to really enjoy your morning

  • I actually grew up listening to weird al. I think "dare to be stupid" is maybe about me

  • well I been learned, thank you. im a smarter, wiser, and better person now due to your tutelage 🙏

    edit: spelling (of course)

  • robocop was supposed to be absurd and cautionary :(

  • please dont be mean I was trying to be gangsta ok

    im white and in my 40s

  • thats fair im sure, but its definitely not the norm, so suggesting the "most important person of all time" (for believers etc) was likely white is just not a good look in my opinion (just my opinion, maybe it is what do I know)
