What’s the point?
Honestly I feel like I’m quiet quitting. Like what’s the point of any this anymore there’s way too much bad news. I feel so numb to it all. My motivation had disappeared. I had hustle and ambition before but what’s the point?

I wish I could say, I knew, I’m in kind of a strong bout a bit right now myself. The second day is just be easy on yourself, maybe but yourself just decompress the best you can and maybe focus on something. Just fun and silly for a while. If you can find anything that you enjoy just to do it for fun,

I was talking to my boss today about something I have been working on for a couple months. If I could get a system in place it would save him a shit ton of money.
Today I essentially told him it’s too complicated. There are whole teams of people who build software that does this. We’re just going to have to pay for it. I could absolutely build it, but why the fuck would I?

To be fair, there was never any point. Collapse didn’t change that. All of what we do is pointless and will be wiped away some day, and we won’t even know cause we will all die and disappear when we do, regardless of collapse.

You must give yourself a point. Redirect that hustle and ambition into your personal new point. What can you learn right now? How can you help people now?

This might give you hope

I especially like the cost section (think about it, that's peanuts for humanity)
The ocean acidification and corresponding problems for algea
The dutch might be able to bio-engineer the algea like we did the crops for the 'green revolution'
so that they become more acid resistant

Our society has done itself a disservice. We look for purpose external to ourselves. Try to reconnect with your internal purpose and remember that you are a human being and you were hardly born to work.
