Why do humans settle for less

@Budwick just the way I like it

@JovialPlutonian Well, that's good, cuz you are out there alone.

@Budwick ok then you have argument as per usual 🤷🏻‍♂️

@SoulKey its self seating really. There's this glimmour of hope that I could be great, and of course maladaptive daydreaming if such, but the ends never justify the means because I am frozen in fear. Like stage fright.

@Iwillwait That still doesn't answer the question.

@SoulKey self defeating.

@JovialPlutonian Would you clear away all the modern buildings that have been there since 1980 or later and rebuild the old ones that used to be there before? Would you get rid of all the modern lamp-posts and replace them with the ones that were there 50 years ago? Would you relay all the railway lines that have been pulled up in the last 50 years, which means demolishing any new buildings that are in the way because they shouldn't be there anyway? Would you be able to do any of these things?

@NankerPhelge I said help you not create the world you miss! If you can’t accept change then you’ll always be stuck in the past

@JovialPlutonian Of course I'll always be stuck in the past, I was born to be. Accepting change is like saying "Come on, Hitler, bomb us!"

@revenant we were talking about evil

@JovialPlutonian ah yes and what you and I were considered evil were not the same things.

@revenant yes

@bearinthehalfwayhouse I couldn't sit still all day, I am grateful to have a job and be working.

@Iwillwait Ey. I ain't doing this willingly though.. Y'all lucky to have kept yours. ┬┴┤•ᴥ •ʔ/

@bearinthehalfwayhouse I agree, and sorry you lost yours.

@JovialPlutonian LMAO. Wow you guys are delusional here aren't you. 🤣 Your religions? Lead to believe? I never said a fooking thing about any of that. Assume much?

@NankerPhelge I’m generalising when I say you I mean humans lol

@JovialPlutonian Please do NOT use the word "you" to generalise. It is not only wrong, it is absolutely brimming over with wrongability. The word "you" is a personal word that should only be used in a personal context.

@GypsyMiss but we never strive for more, well not what really gives us more, we settle for less it is self-evident

@JovialPlutonian have you only had sex once? Did that one time satisfy you? I’m guessing no. There is a drive within us for more - be it more money, power or even the freedom just to do nothing. Life is based on pay offs and humans instinctively do nothing without a payoff.

@GypsyMiss i appreciate your view and agree that humans always want more but what I’m saying is they don’t go for what gives them more, their understanding of what serves them is limited and hence so is their experience.

@smiler2012 I appreciate that but I‘m referring to quality of life, our world could be so much nicer but we settle for a rotting world. I appreciate this might be far fetched in many ppl’s opinion, but If ppl really think this is as good as it gets then that’s quite sad.
