    Took a hit professionally to move states and get out of and escape a few years of bad employers. Now I have a part-time job where I feel overqualified but it’s essentially the same price for me to be a stay-at-home dad most of the time with my new baby. So, I really hope that when she’s 5, I can have some semblance of challenge and purpose outside of fatherhood again. I am a video director so some sense of creating art for fun again would be nice, too.

      In reality it may be different and the terminator will also look different he will most likely be smaller and in camouflage and there will be no point in shooting you will be immediately arrested and eliminated so you know reality is cruel you are not a hero in it you are just almost nobody. Oh I couldn’t resist and answered…

          Well, a real hero is much more tragic… It can even be painful to watch his tears, his despair, how he scratches the ground with his nails, cries, bleeds, but does what he must, and in the end dies not like everyone else, but proudly, like a wolf, even though it may seem pathetic.

    Get those shelves on the wall. Maybe manage to decide on a new couch. That’d be nice.

        Nope, can’t. The walls are made of concrete, I think, some other hard as fuck material in any case, so drilling is a massive undertaking that requires a hammer drill. Also don’t have all the materials because I forgot to mention “have the energy to go to the store to get materials”.

      Preferably somewhere with fewer people, preferably in a village or even in a forest far from civilization, or will you arm yourself to the teeth and defend your fortress from from marauders and others?

        I’m not sure. I think I would like to be more self sufficient at a minimum. Gardening, hunting, fishing.

        But to answer your question, probably. And hope it doesn’t come to that.

          Still, firearms are a good idea in a pinch, although crossbows can also be used to hunt animals and eliminate opponents.

    Slow down, do less, achieve less, buy less, worry less. More casual hanging out with trees, birds and lizards in my neighborhood. Eat the rich.

      Well, considering the emissions and other things that can make the earth’s atmosphere deadly, I think it won’t be possible to enjoy nature for long.

      It’s like running away from your problems, and eventually they will catch up with you, no matter how deep a cave you hide in.

    Not die in the coming global wars for resources. But I mean realistically I’m not well positioned for that.

      Congratulations! You get to be a low-level henchman. If you’re lucky, some actor in the distant future will play you in the movie adaptation and they may even get assigned a designation like “Henchman #7” or “Blue shirt Henchman”!

    Build myself a new life in Australia, get a motorbike and do lots of road trips, and maybe start a family.
