At this point, everyone knows I'm hugely into books.
It's just so depressing how even book people are about nothing more than intentionally creating this self-perpetuating "community" of anxiety.
You can't go to any freaking book-related online space without people asking for permission to not finish a book. "Is it okay to DNF?????"
Same with doing shit to your own books. Do not write into them, do not open them too much or the spine will crack. Get a panic attack because two fucking photons touched the book and how it will be DAMAGED.
"I am having a panic attack because maybe I didn't get all the references in this book."
The same with every hobby. Cooking? You are not environmentally friendly enough, you are not authentic enough, this is wrong, that is wrong.
Hell, I am kiiinda thinking about a Switch, I looked at Animal Crossing and people are freaking the fuck out at others for not playing the game "right". Others are having depression because their islands are not aesthetic enough.
How did the internet turn everyone so fucking neurotic over the things we were supposed to do as FUN? And I am not even just talking about SJW things, but every community is about "doing it the right way" even though it doesn't matter and there doesn't exist a right way?
Fun is ableist you fucking Nazi, some of us are neurospicy and can't have fun! Reported to the internet police.
Anyway, yeah, reddit is a shithole filled with incredibly sad people who don't have any IRL friends and are desperate for validation, even if it comes from other losers like themselves. Normal people have their own insecurities and irrational fears, but we can get over it because we haven't been surviving on Soylent for the last half decade. Considering Reddit's opinions on pretty much any topic should be avoided at all costs, I only go there anymore to laugh at the faggotry through subs like r/shitredditsays and r/coronaviruscirclejerk.
I thought of something while I was writing the first paragraph, though: I'm really convinced that these people who freak out about this kind of stupid shit are autistic - at least those who started it, there's also bound to be a sizeable chunk of literal NPCs who saw these autistic outbursts and now they're just aping them because they think that's what's appropriate. But then you have subs centered around topics that genuinely attract actual autists, subs like r/Factorio and r/KerbalSpaceProgram, and those are some of the best on the site. And the big difference? There are no women on these subs. Hmmm.
I don’t have any IRL friends because everyone is so sensitive and neurofaggy. It bums me out, idk how to meet other autists in my area with spicy political takes who aren’t offended by facts.
I guess I need to start a Midwest group for “nazis” that cause others to literally shake. But then the feds will just Ruby Ridge us all :(
Just as women have sought to destroy men's spaces and activities, so to does globohomo seek to isolate those with dangerous ideas.
