I'm the only person to have seen this video so far, probably, maybe the human behind it, but I can't be sure they even watched it and listened to all of it, let alone any of it at all:



It seems to stupidly be focused on blame, as if that will matter once someone or something starts a sequence of events that can lead to disaster, even if the disaster is one person hurt, something we see daily with people stuck in this man made machine of systems squeezing people into choiceless falling.

Even some of the darkest things in literature and games, the most cartoonishly evil scenarios, still had some hope in them and were not as desperately miserable and hopeless as what is being witnessed in the real world today. I was thinking about some of the darkest and most hellish games like those from FromSoftware, the company now famous for Dark Souls and Elden Ring, and how they have these really miserable worlds that are still full of life, still breathable, still spacious, nothing like the situation in the walled-hell that exists in our world or even the legal situations people have been put in or medical nightmares that this world has stories about, I guess because people would just be paralyzed by such stories as they paralyze us when we hear about them, pretty much constantly, in this world now:

Haha, I can't find the video that I wanted to put in this spot about how all the negative fiction and media is making it so that people can't even imagine positive outcomes, and the search for it is futile, as a funny irony, but if I find it again I'll put it up in this thread.

These days I can't even dream of doing anything creative, like it seems to beg the question: "why?", "for who?", and "how can I when things are this bad?"

There doesn't seem to be a future where I'd have any interest in putting up anything for pretty much anyone, it is like most everyone is gone already, these people are like horrible shades shrieking like it could save their lives.
