One of the things they don't tell you about growing up/old is that the reason old people constantly look down on everyone younger than them is that we spend our entire lives feeling like we're only JUST on the cusp of being an adult.

So everyone younger than you feels like a fucking child.

Nerd content needs to stop focusing on the things we don't like.

So much of what nerdy creators are making is just thinly veiled rage bait these days, and I include some of my favourite creators in this. Unfortunately.

Learn to stop giving the things you hate a part of your brain to live in.

You know corporate culture is bad when you spend your cushy WFH gig dreaming about driving machinery.

So tired of fucking double speak.

THEY ARE NOT UNINFORMED.

THEY ARE WILLFULLY IGNORANT.

YOU CONSTANTLY SHOUTING ABOUT THE WORST THINGS HAPPENING 24x7 IS ONLY FUCKING UP THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN LISTENING THIS WHOLE TIME.

WE NEED HOPE.

At what fucking point do you start to consider that maybe people feeling hopeful for the future is essential to there being a hopeful future?

If all you can do is say what you see then just give me the fucking shovel, I'd rather bury myself than hear you talk.

There is so much fucking hopelessness to go around that if that's all you have to say then you have genuinely failed to contribute anything novel to the situation.

You're not even replying to the right people, you're talking to people INSIDE OUR OWN FUCKING MOVEMENT.

"The minorities are all going to die", "there's plastic in our bodies", "climate catastrophe", "conservatism is coming to your country", "concentration camps".

Who the fuck are you talking to? Because the people in your audiences are hearing this shit day in day out.

The responses to the "we survived Regan" meme just feel like they're talking over us. Like we're not in the fucking room.

WE KNOW LGBTQ PEOPLE ARE AT RISK, YOU GUYS ARE THE ONES WHO NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT.

I'm so fucking tired of conscientious doom preachers.

I really need you guys to understand that the hopelessness isn't helping anyone.

Who do you think you'd helping by constantly pointing out that the most vulnerable are already going to die?

We're already killing ourselves, we need a reason to fucking stay here.
