Investing massive amounts of care and interest in to fake characters and products controlled by rich strangers was really stupid

It doesn't make sense to invest in any one fictional franchise/property to the detriment of the rest of your life.

But at the same time the culture we live in affects us whether we actively participate in it or not.

So sure consoom less, exercise more, touch grass, go to church and all that. But we still have to expend energy and effort on NOT seeing degeneracy everywhere and NOT saying the emperor has no clothes if we don't want to go full Uncle Ted and live in a shack.

Retreating to self-improvement is great, but that can't be the end.

have to do that AND show up at achool board meetings and local community groups

but at the same time recognize you are one person and while your personal commitments may not appear to make a difference, you are still a pebble that is adding to the weight of the avalanche
