I'm not sure this is a good thing. I agree that you shouldn't be constantly hammering yourself with upsetting things but I don't think the polar opposite of avoiding anything you disagree with or get upset about it mentally healthy either. I think this could lead to you just being overly sensitive to anything that makes you a little emotional. Although, maybe you get enough "disagreement" in you regular life to balance it out.
The best option is to learn how to better deal with you emotions. For younger generations that aren't going to be able to avoid social media as well this might be the only option for them since that IS their entire social interaction in many cases. It's definitely harder though and the way social media berates you constantly maybe our minds aren't able to handle such a barrage.
If you HAVE to stay inside for bad weather or something get a trainer for that bike. There are several youtube channels/patreon channels that film their mountain-biking/road biking and you can put those on and feel like you're riding along if you need that aspect.
I feel like the type of people that fall for these electronic gadgets typically don't like exercising and are hoping they'll somehow get more motivated with digital content. Invariably, after a few months they quit using it just like every other exercise program they've started.
I quite liked the other information provided. You suggesting that an article should contain less information seems quite silly. You know what you could do? Don't read the rest and you won't have an issue....
Nope, this is your problem and most likely the reason you're having a hard time grasping the issue at hand.
I'm defending the right to speak without the fascist woke mob trying to silence it. I suggest you do some critical thinking and figure out why this is such an important thing in western society. This right applies to ALL or it applies to no one.
This is absolutely Young pulling an authoritarian "You're not allowed to hear things I don't like" move. There's really no other way to spin it. Disagreement with people is great, to then take the next step and say that others should not get access to the things I do not like.... well that's just a step another rung up the authoritarian/fascist ladder. It's a elitist control freak mindset.
It's so opposite of what his music is supposedly about you have wonder whether he's just been a sellout this whole time.
That's an ultimatum with markedly authoritarian need for control over what others have access to on a platform. Thanks for proving my point.
>Note that the primary demand is to remove his music.
No it's absolutely not or he would not have ended with the ultimatum. IF what you're saying was true he wouldn't have needed to mention anything about Rogan, he can pull his music whenever he wants.
I'm not sure if you're just naive or you've haven't been properly taught reading comprehension and critical thinking but you're just dismissing half of what Young is saying. I guess the last option is that you're being malicious for some reason. Which is it? I'd have more respect for you if you just admitted you like his authoritarian attitude because you don't care for Rogan.
Full Definition of authoritarian
1 : of, relating to, or favoring blind submission to authority
Certainly seems to meet the definition to me. Are you sure you know what it means?
You do not maintain or own cloud storage. You might want to rad the fine print on your cloud storage service and who actually owns that data.
Additionally, coming from a dude that based his entire career on singing about the atrocities of government overreach, mob mentality etc. it's pretty disgusting to see him go this direction. It makes me think he really had no fucking clue what he was singing about and was just doing it because it seemed cool at the time.
Yeah I get tired of this response. YOU NEED DRUGS NOW! No, life is often boring and mundane. You will not be happy every second of it, if you were you wouldn't even know what happiness is because it wouldn't stand out. The solution is to force yourself to do something, whether you feel good is irrelevant. Motivation rarely appears on its own, it's a result of action. You do not wait around to feel motivated.
The problem is modern society gives you this option when for centuries waiting to feel some sort of innate internal motivation wasn't an option, you did what you had to for survival whether you felt like it or not.
That's the part I want to avoid. Build your own crawlers and stop relying on Google. Google already has enough control over the internet, I do not want a search engine that's just downstream of them.
The solution to your problem is not force a certain section of the population to work and give their salary to you so you get to "pursue your dream". Why do you get to do what you want while others are forced to keep your power on and your sewer system working daily?
Decisions have consequences, if you want something then you will need to sacrifice in certain areas.
As you can see they've already started flagging me for just mentioning the facts of what they're doing. I'm sure one of them will come along with some -ist inflammatory remark soon.
Sorry but this has to be the dumbest most elitist sheltered things I've heard.
You ARE free to do what you want. What you are not free to do is demand that others support you in this endeavor.
Is your idea that policeman, firefighters, emt, doctors, teachers, farmers and the the plethora of other jobs necessary to sustain modern life should work while you are allowed go off and spend your day in hot yoga classes while they support you????
The idea that competition should not exist and is some outcome of "evil" capitalism is absolute ridiculousness. I was responding directly to that asinine comment.
Life without competition doesn't exist, nor should it.
It's a natural attitude that's innate to human survival. You need competition or you will be a miserable mentally unhealthy person. You're in denial if you don't realize this truth.
This ridiculous socialist utopia where everyone is at peace doing finger painting all day doesn't exist. It's a good way for your society to collapse though. Competition is not some artificial outcome produced by capitalist economic systems.
>But it sounds like an excuse to brag about the harsh weather one runs in, and those damned kids and their video games or something. Here, I'll one-up you: I regularly ran in snow and sub-zero (Fahrenheit, bitches) temperatures when I lived in Indiana.
It took one little remark about your overpriced lame electronic exercise equipment to get you all worked up. Thanks for the laugh, and letting me know how insecure you are about it.
In the enterprise environment I have control over all of these settings through GPO or our MDM so it's irrelevant.
At home it's a bit more cumbersome but can be overcome as well.
You might have a point if you're talking trust fund babies but those people are miserable because they do nothing. They're not happy. The vast majority of wealth is not handed down.
>Rather, that attaining freedom from being told what to do much of your waking hours is morally or psychologically harmful.
Do you understand how this is achieved at all???? BY HARD WORK. Go out and create something of your own, no one is stopping you. If you think it's not going to be work I've got news for you. No one is going to just give you this freedom, nor should they because it would then be meaningless.
I'm sorry but you just sound incredibly young, naive, and lacking in any real world experience. You need to grow up and realize that almost nothing in life that's easily obtained is worth a shit.
At what time in history has this ever been an option. You would be dead in a ditch with this attitude for most of our history. Maybe you need to go out into the woods and survive without help to force an attitude change.
You have a skewed since of reality egged on by a society that's let you survive off of doing basically nothing and yet you still complain. The problem here is that you believe all of the stuff to keep you alive just magically appears without anyone doing any work.
