I have a trauma-based personality disorder, which sometimes manifests itself in episodes of often uncontrollable bouts of verbal violence. I prefer to direct this to people on the internet (as opposed to actual people), as I don’t wish to be violent towards people I actually care about.

    Stealing other peoples’ work and selling it as your own for your profit, the sacred art of the capitalists (it just works!)

    Yeah, I work as a bartender and have occasionally had to deal with register/payment terminal combos that are basically just Android based devices with a receipt printer. I hate them, because it’s completely possible to swipe up and close the app, or double press the unlock button and open the camera, or accidentally input something and trying to undo anything without starting over is a pain 'cause the buttons are too small. And occasionally those things will just not work, and the battery drains real fast.












  • Oh there’s that lizard-looking fucking cunt that we have for a president, sucking the emperor’s toes I see. I wonder if they’re orange and taste of cheetos, and whether Alexander “I would allow NATO nukes on Finnish soil” Stub here would enjoy the taste more or less if they did. Holy fucking shit this country is really going to the shitter fast when “our” president is out in fucking Florida ganging up on old big D’s shriveled up cock with the rest of them, while our prime minister isn’t doing really fucking anything except agreeing whateverthefuck the removed-faced removed that is our financial minister - and incidentally the leader of our own far-right party - says. Which so far has amounted to basically doing what the US has done thus far, and pretending like it’ll fix fucking anything for the working class instead of more money in the rulers’ pockets. Fucking god fucking damn it all to hell, I wish I’d see these people burning to death on the street in agony so I could actually not even fucking piss on them to ease their suffering. You are literally ruining everything for everyone else. And eventually it’ll come to you too, cause there ain’t no planet B. You will die of your own works, just like the rest of us. I wish it’ll be fucking worth it, you miserable excuses for fatherless maggots. I hate you.


  • Fair enough. I’m mostly arguing with a strawman here, composed of all the content online about how supposedly great this place is, the most egregious being those fucking happiness indexes or whatever. By what I can tell by living here all my life is that the state sucks (as in nothing fucking works like it’s supposed to), the location sucks (cold and/or dark most of the time), and all the people are drunks, depressed and thus hypermedicated, drug addicts, or inbred, xenophobic, racist homophobes. Or depending on how far from the nearest train station you stray a combination of all!

    Welcome to Finland, I hate it here.


  • Nah, because if you’re silent the wrong way (and no one will ever tell you what that way is or how to be silent correctly) you’ll be ostracized since pre-school and end up socially withdraw whether you want it or not. Or at least that is my experience growing up here as an autist, as well as every other autistic person I know.

    Stop romanticizing this place and its laughable excuse for a culture. Most people hate it here, and would much rather live somewhere else were it not for the fact that everywhere else seems to be even fucking worse.


  • “Anyway, here are terminal commands you don’t understand.” and after asking for clarification on said terminal commands, you are quite rudely told to read The Manual - which seems to be some kind of a holy book for these bizarre creatures - without explaining in any way whatsoever which part of which manual you should be “reading”. Thankfully, only every command ever created by anyone since the very conception of these systems - which was some 50 years ago in the seventies, in a university of a country you don’t live in, written in a language you don’t possibly even understand all that well, possibly by someone who also didn’t know the language all that well - is discussed at length and in an impenetrably obtuse manner by many different parts of many different manuals, with helpful references to other commands and concepts you also don’t understand, but which are all varying levels of essential knowledge for understanding some of these commands, while different levels for others. Also if you do not grasp the essential knowledge, you might completely fuck up your system. It seems that the philosophy in playing Dwarf Fortress is found in trying to use certain types of Linux distros, mostly frequented by massive nerds with hugely inflated egos: losing is fun! Because why else would I still be using Arch (btw)? But in any case: Read the Fucking Manual (rtfm to you as well, brother)




  • I don’t know if it’s the wording used here or the actual study itself, but this all just seems wrong somehow. Like I’m not arguing against the fact that everything is completely fucked everywhere at the moment, and that obviously hits the youth hardest. But the way this is framed is just kinda stupid I feel.

    “Traditionally, happiness followed a U-shape, with youth being a peak period, but it now increases with age instead.” Has this claim ever really held water? And according to which tradition exactly? Also define “youth”.

    “Researchers link this shift to social media, cyberbullying, and reduced social interaction.” ah yes, it’s those pesky Iphones again! Thankfully it’s not, for an example, the actual algorithms themselves in use at said social media, or the reluctance from the profiteers (of the widespread unhappiness of youth) to actually change these algorithms in order to protect the in cases extremely young user base of these, despite constant promises to do so, take Meta and Zuck’s talks for an example. But then again, fascists do what fascists do, so straight up lying from these kinds of people shouldn’t really be surprising anymore to anyone.

    Or could it be that no-one knows how to deal with feeling bad? I, personally, started feeling bad when I was around 15 or 16 years of age, and it didn’t really stop until some 3 years ago finally. So roughly about 15 years went by. There are many reasons why I started feeling bad, and kept on feeling bad for so long, but from what I’ve gathered from these years is that parents in general are left too much on their own devices to give their children the tools with which to deal with strong (negative) emotions, literally what to do when you feel bad. I eventually found help through a certain kind of behavioral therapy, because the extent to which my strong emotions affected and had affected my behavior and actions was basically what kept on fueling my bad feelings and general inability to live (and also large sums and amounts of prescribed antidepressant, anti-psychotic and sedative medications, all of which did fuck-all towards improving the quality of my life by themselves. Only with therapy, which was difficult and expensive to find and acquire access to).

    There are parts in this fork of therapy, especially in the topic of emotional regulation skills, that could and should be integrated into the strategy of general upbringing pretty much everywhere. The parents should know how to bring up their kids to have the ability to learn more about these skills (and their importance to life in general) especially coming into teenage, which is a tumultuous time emotionally and behaviorally for everyone I think.

    So, a revamping of upbringing seems to be in order, but what’s stopping us? Oh yes, what causes every evil in this world: money, or lack thereof.

    “[This] may have significant consequences that affect education, workforce participation, and productivity”, oh no, not the productivity! WON’T SOMEONE PLEASE THINK OF THE SHAREHOLDERS! Never mind the kids, but think of all the fat stacks they are losing due to their wage-slaves not feeling good in a world controlled by capitalism! Whatever shall we do? Well what do we always do? Start a few new wars or something, that should distract them for a while, while simultaneously culling enough people to make it seem like the standard of living has increased. That should buy a few decades or even centuries to make more money.

    Fucking hell.
