What should I do with my life

best thing you can do for weight loss is to stop thinking of it as a sacrifice. you're not sacrificing shit. you're building the body you want. being hungry is GOOD, it means you are getting closer!

Everything irritates me lately, but this worldview especially irritates me. It is only possible to hold this worldview if you measure [quality of life] by [availability of material goods]. This is not a functional way to measure that because it conflates inner life with outer life. What this means is that material conditions do not result in quality of life by themselves. If you don't understand what I mean by that, Imagine that you have a big mouthful of dog shit. What is your quality of life? Are you having a good time or not? Now imagine that you are a fly. Are you having a good time now? Do you see how something that is very bad for you is very good for the fly? It's the same material condition. It's happening to a very different being. It's a very different quality of life. Everybody has a smartphone. We get packages delivered by drones. AI writes essays for us. Amazon delivers everything you need to live in 2 days. Material conditions are great, but everyone is miserable. Why would that be? According to taoki, it's your fault. You chose to be miserable. It is your brain or your mind or your choices making misery out of a good thing. After all, look how many Amazon deliveries you get! Look how many flavors of Doritos you can choose from! Life is good! But for someone like me, wealth doesn't do much at all for my quality of life. It definitely does something! I am by far richer than I have ever been, and I prefer it this way. But it doesn't solve my biggest problems, and if you zoom out far enough, it becomes clear that the availability of wealth is a major cause of my biggest problems. It is not a secret that I do not like immigration from africa, india, South and Central america, and other such places. I consider it my biggest problem. Would all of that be happening without such availability of wealth? Without the technology? The airplanes? The computers? The money that can be transferred from phone to phone in an instant? Of course not. In any time before we had all of those things, millions of Indians or Africans coming to your country would be met by the national Army. I saw my world changing starting in the 2000s. The problems we have today were evident back then, but I didn't suspect they would get this bad. In the last 20 years, I have seen everything I value and everything that makes sense to me be replaced by something crude, inferior, dangerous, dirty, unwelcome, hostile, threatening. Instead of local families having Springtime events in the streets, Muslims gather shirtless and slap their chests in a war display. Instead of a corporate culture that values performance, myself and everybody like me is turned away by the job market in favor of foreign races, alternative sexualities, and women who may or may not be competent. Who cares? They're women. Music is gone. Culture is gone. Movies are worse than ever. Because we live in the "BEST OF ALL TIMES," (according to taoki), there is nothing left for me to belong to. Especially not where I grew up, or in any of the places that people usually move to from there. I could not deal with how uncomfortable that made me, so I ran away. I made a lot of money and I bought a big beautiful house in the middle of nowhere. The house is just about perfect (except for the repairs) and the view is so nice I unconsciously stare at it every day to recharge my battery. It's a gem, and I'm lucky to have it. But every day, I wake up and I remember that I am here because I could not be where I wanted to be, because where I wanted to be is gone. It's having its "BEST OF TIMES." There are naked tribal people in the Amazon who are happier than me because they know what to do and where to go and who their friends are. They don't have to think about it. Watch out for people who think that life is good because there is a lot of stuff. Sometimes that means other values have not even occurred to them.
