Every day it is more and more obvious that cities were a mistake and every step away from a village-type community is a step towards hell.

Case in point, in a town of 100 people, this moron blathering about nothing important and constantly dodging every question would have been tarred and feathered and disregarded. Ostrich-cized, if you will.

I agree with Josh's take on depression. In the past 2 months, I have gone through some difficulties totally outside of my control, but even so it affected me terribly. I felt like I had a heavy wet blanket wrapped around me; I did not want to get out of bed, I did not want to go outside, I just wanted my grief to envelop me and I found myself using that to shirk my responsibilities, particularly to myself. It lasted a week until I just forced myself to get up, go to my computer and start a new project. And when I got tired, I got up and went for a walk. Then I came home and did more work, and then I cooked a meal for my girl and myself. And once I was back at work from leave, l took on as much as I could to fill my calendar. These were all conscious decisions, and a recognition that what I was/am feeling is not singular, and not unique to me and can only be fixed by action. There are very few things in life that cannot be fixed by a will to do so.

@Null as for keyboards. I got memed into buying a mechanical keyboard and spending buko bucks in the process. I hated it. I ended up finding 2 keyboards that I love:

For a standard keyboard I loved the Lenovo Preffered Pro 2

Just feels great and is comfortable and reliable.

After a crazy engagement where I was programming 10 hrs a day for a month straight, I started getting tinges of wrist/hand pain, so I splurged and bought a ergonomic split keyboard called the Logitech Ergo k860

I have been using it for the last 2 years and I really love it. I also bought the high end Trackball mouse by Logitech after the wrist scare just to be sure which I also love.

We all know that Reddit is being manipulated by karma farming bots and other shenanigans but what If there was one highly autistic literal child who wants to break the system? I want to recommend this video about an Italian teenager who from the age of 12 started to devote his life to gaining as much Reddit points as possible, almost failing school but learning statistics and python in the process.
This video has some fascinating insights into the high karma community as this European kid got invited to all sorts of secret "elite" Reddit groups, how its mostly 30y/o jobless Americans who argue about politics all day. How just mass reposting Instagram and posting Trump nets you thousands of points a day, and how autism can prevail against Indian bots. Please forgive the text to speech voice, I know it can be grating but the storytelling is on point imo.
Even if you are already aware about the posting manipulation done its still worth a watch.
(The video starts a bit slow but the pace picks up at 1:50)

And yes, the Homestuck avatar really is the cherry on top of this autistic cake.

This is a huge HUGE point.

There's no point in spending hundreds/thousands on keyboards until you know what you like, so start with the cheaper options and work your way up

Sure things like https://www.modelfkeyboards.com are amazing - IF - you like and want and need that. Many people do, but many more do not.

The world of keyboard autism is phenomenal, beware - https://deskthority.net

Null should troll used computer shops in whatever eastern hellhole you're in and collect weird and old keyboards and try them out. I'm sure some shit from before the curtain is available, and autists make adapters for EVERYTHING.

Bringing back some slovak keyboards to the USA would sell quite well tbh

NOTE: If you DO find a keyboard you really, really like (give it at least a month before you're sure) you should spend about $500 or so buying spares. Yes, that means if it is a $20 dell POS you should buy 25 of them, because the cheaper they are the faster they WILL wear out, and the fuckers will stop manufacturing them the moment you need a new one. RIP actual good Microsoft keyboards and mice.

Extremely recent happening over in Germany
Prominent conservative anti-Islam activist Michael Stürzenberger and his crew have been attacked by a knife-wielding assailant during an event in Mannheim, Germany
The attacker was shot down by police
The footage can be seen in this livestream at the 12:30 minute mark

Multiple people are severely injured, including a police officer who was retarded enough to tackle one of the defenders instead of the assailant.

This is an extremely fresh happening, therefore no news article or thread yet. However, here is the German politics sperging thread for discussion.

If and when @Null talks about this in MATI, I want to make sure he sees and shows this specific picture

This image is a PERFECT encapsulation of what is happening in the world right now.
A knife-wielding bearded assailant wounds someone, AND THE POLICEMAN KNEELS OVER THE WOUNDED, WITH HIS BACK TURNED TOWARDS THE ASSAILANT, AND GETS STABBED IN THE NECK FOR IT
This is absolutely historical and hysterical

I miss the days of just going to some run down store in a plaza somewhere that basically just served as a small warehouse for random computer parts and haggling with the Armenian Jew over how much to pay for a basic dell pc case, ibm key boards and rare dos games no ones even heard of. Simpler times

Trans Army Facebook group promoting DIY

So this seems majorly brain dead. Despite the controversy on Twitter, YouTube, and Twitch (or because of it) DIY HRT is now blatantly being advertised on Facebook? See this today.

You’d think the recent re-re-outing of Kerfuffles, and the UK cracking down on DIY HRT websites would be telling you to “Stahp”. Stop being so retarded, and also stop being so brazen.

Speaking of the UK…Anyone in England think they can get this shit flagged down?

There'd probably be less pushback on nulls spicy takes if he was less smug and solipsistic while giving them. "Just stop being depressed" isn't how you handle depression when you're in the middle of it and telling that to a loved one in that way won't help much compared to guiding them against the series of thoughts they have that makes them depressed and helping them adjust their mindset. No advice one-liners work on everyone. Pretending they do is ridiculous.

No, getting out of depression is not about popping pills and chemical imbalances but a series of changing things in your life on your own terms to regain an internal locus of control.
Nulls take is autistic and comes off as mean spirited. The kind of thing that only works on one type of person.

I think he always sometimes does this on purpose just to fuck with people. But we all know he’s kinda retarded as well so maybe not.

He could be 100% right and sometimes you’d still wanna tell him he’s wrong just to fuck with him for being so smug about it.

In this case he’s not wrong about maybe 90% of people who would fall under “depressed” in our current society. A lot of people just need to stop trying to be a victim. If people are telling you they are depressed, especially online, they’re probably full of shit or their quack therapist (they’re almost all quacks now a days) convinced them they had depression.

The ones that do have it or some form of it are dealing with underlying issues like other real mental illnesses, childhood trauma or recent traumatic events; maybe even all of the above. (I’m talking about witnessing or being subjected to domestic violence frequently, death or just generally never feeling safe at home with your own parents. Things like being raped, maybe multiple times. Or being one of your only friends to come out alive from a war or accident.) It’s probably not even diagnosed and they’re not going to whine about it on social media either. They’re not going to be cured just by someone telling them to “ just stop being sad lol “ but drugging them for the rest of their life isn’t often the right move either.

They need guidance on identifying the why , seeing the path towards fixing it and then on how to navigate that route themselves without relying on drugs or other negative influences.
