Ah, sweet, manmade horrors beyond my comprehension.

Ha, no, we don't have the kind of political system which would make such small parties useful. Anyone who isn't in one of the big two is essentially disenfranchised.

In my state we get mail ballots so if there's anyone worth voting for I'll do it.

But there usually isn't. Often enough the only tolerable thing is to leave half the ballot blank. I've spent enough time in the consent factory for one lifetime.

That's still what everyone worth talking to dresses like out on the west coast man just move out here and suffer with us.

Frankly, if it keeps more proletarians from dying deaths of despair, it's worthwhile for that alone. Before we can win the world, we must stay alive another day.

You just uninstall it. It doesn't embed anything in any other software. I have no idea what's in there at present but it has shipped with a crypto miner in the past. The alternatives are faster, better, and less skeezy.

The point of life is itself, it is to be and to experience the full breadth of possibility contained therein. Yet you are confined, only free to experience what limited possibilities you are structurally coerced into pursuing. And those are not random, they are those pursuits which enrich a remote and disinterested ruling class.

I have had this feeling you describe, and continue to have it. The best thing you can do for yourself, I believe, is to begin to deeply understand that what you feel you must do is every moment being manipulated to make you useful, even to your own detriment.

Every moment you manage to resist this death drive, this ghostly dog at your ankles, every moment you manage to steal rest, comfort, ease, each moment you manage to do something for yourself even if you are expected to be performing labor, or performing the appearance of labor, you get back some little sliver of yourself. Steal every second you can, every day.
