it sucks to wake up everyday, read the news and see bad shit happening.

i agree that material possession and brand chasing is not helping.

but i think this stems from a myriad of issues, not just this.

can't speak for other countries but for us, we seem to be self-segregating more and more. not just between different races, even in my own circle, people are stabbing each other's backs, thinking themselves more superior than others.

it's sad to see tolerance is no longer a common trait. but can't change others, we start with ourselves first, we are full of faults ourselves.

it's the same everywhere. does the punishment fit the crime? death penalties everywhere? it's like they wish to live in mad max. sendiri jadi judge jury executioner.

it feels like such a old man thing to say but socmed really fucks with our brain and perception. too much dopamine, and you need to scroll more to get the same hit.

its causing us to dissociate with real lives and values.

its such a stupid thing but reminds me of the oompa loompa mike teevee song from the 1974 willy wonka movie. we should read more books and less screentime.
