Just as the title asks I’ve noticed a very sharp increase in people just straight up not comprehending what they’re reading.
They’ll read it and despite all the information being there, if it’s even slightly out of line from the most straightforward sentence structure, they act like it’s complete gibberish or indecipherable.
Has anyone else noticed this? Because honestly it’s making me lose my fucking mind.
Same. I fog myself through the frustration of realizing I’ve seen nothing but growing and inevitable dystopia around me all my life. Rode into the pandemic in a fully self-made burnout, realized being productive was mainly futile and destructive, and decided to just chill, with weed as needed. I’m not lazy or have given up, I just learn every day to enjoy simple and sustainable comforts and avoid consumption and energy waste, so I guess it’s all about doing fuck all wherever applicable, with a passion.
Just put on a toga and start sharing blunts with people in the park. Be the philosopher you want to see in the world.
