    I’m not saying create an echo chamber, my advice excludes engaging with people who agree and disagree, at least when it comes to large scale politics. If someone wants to get involved in politics, I think they should avoid echo chambers and engage in good discussion. But for people who just want to or need to get away from it, disengaging entirely I think is the way to go. You can still get involved in local polics without engaging in larger politics. They often have direct impacts on your community and it varies wildly between different communities.

    I recommend not watching or reading the news. Spend your free time learning about hobbies or finding new ones, getting involved in local politics instead of national/global politics, improving yourself, and finding friends in communities around your hobby.

    If you want some PC gaming friends that don’t talk about politics all the time, DM me. We’re in our late 20’s through 40’s.













  • Does bitwarden allow me to automatically create a new randomized email address for every new saved login I create, that forwards to my secret main address? That’s the main thing that’s keeping me with Proton. Every online account is a different email. When I start getting spam because one leaked, I simply delete that email address, problem solved. Something like the Gmail plus thing doesn’t work since I can’t arbitrarily delete an alias that way when I want to.



  • I’m not saying that about all video games, I was trying to say that people who don’t like learning tend to gravitate towards whatever video games are popular at the time and don’t necessarily form complex opinions about different types of games or their tastes. Anything below surface level enjoyment that would require learning would be too much. Which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. There’s nothing wrong with just loading up whatever new call of duty or fifa or something and just relaxing.

    I guess I didn’t elaborate enough on that, I just said “popular video game” which didn’t get my meaning across. In short, I was saying those people also don’t put a lot of thought or effort into what entertainment they consume because whatever is easiest and most popular is good enough, because they don’t care to dive into learning about anything else.

    I’m also not saying these games don’t have complicated and high skill ceilings. Most do.
