It has actually been described as such. (It’s called Civic Religion) Many countries have elements of this, like France or the Soviet Union.
This isn’t the dystopia I was expecting
It should be on a pivot so it always faces where youre pulling from
Then who lives in the towers?
Better be quick! There are only 26 company names to snatch!
Bro doesn’t need the cig when he’s sitting on an asbestos pipe
Also do you wish you had taped dat ass more when you were my age?
Heah, I guess for people in this day and age health span maximisation (not life span) should be the main goal.
I see. I just feel a bit bad because I’ve spent the past few years living with my parents, without friends, stressing over university yet failing. And I’m really tempted to just say stuff it, move cities and actually live. My life has been so defficient in adventure up to now. I just can’t help but think that university, careers, office jobs etc. can wait when the (biological) clock is ticking.
What would you do differently if you were young this time? Asking as a 21M.
I was actually thinking about this. I think it’s partially because in both pictures, items which have a totally different function are graphically uniform (eg. in the bottom picture, one of the boxes takes you to an action, but another opens a passive PDF), and there are no icons. It’s like if on your computer, the setting app had the same icon as an ordinary folder.
And in Blackboard you see multiple levels of the app’s hierarchy on the screen at once — sometimes multiple levels are shown uniformly in the same UI element.
Oh good so it’s not just me. Yes that is Blackboard
Did that ease your latent anxiety as well? Have you been on both?
Thank you
You say you had problems with short term memory – did you keep forgetting what you were doing have having to re-trace your steps/thoughts? This is one of my problems, it’s gotten so bad that I forget like every 2 minutes and always mumble ‘What was I doing? What was I doing?’ to myself…
Yes I’ve been on it for half a year now. I feel like I’m emotionally still the same (good thing) but the background anxiety that always used to constrain me has gone. I’ll have a talk with my psych and ask him once more if he could keep me on it. (My ADHD problems are more to do with not being able to focus on boring things rather than emotional dysregulation)
This looks like it deserves my time, I will give it a read.
Notice that it isn’t publicly traded. I suspect that’s why it hasn’t enshittified.
