  • I agree. The thing that keeps me going is the idea of finding community again.

    Not sure how many people in this thread are American, but we have a very independent point of view. The “optimal” way of living is leaving your parents, leaving your home, and building a new home somewhere else. We tend to be more independent overall and less likely to look to others for comfort, to our detriment. At least, that has been my experience.

    So I think the best thing to do is go out there, find a community that DOES care. Because they DO exist. Look for hobby classes, look for new friends in your interests, look for a church (if that is your thing. I am UU so the people at those churches are often some of the nicest, most leftist people around).

    I’m moving soon, and I think the thing that keeps me going is the idea of finding new community after I move. You can also affect meaningful change as a community when you can’t do it alone.



  • I agree with the guy that said Outer Wilds, even though I can’t finish it because of my thalassophobia.

    Personally, the two games that had a really profound effect on me are Disco Elysium and Hi-Fi Rush.

    Disco is an incredible political game that really is damn powerful. It’s definitely not for people who just want action.

    Hi-Fi Rush is a rhythm action game so I wouldn’t recommend it to people who hate rhythm games or people who hate action. But it’s so fun, so charming and really uplifting.
