  • No offense, but is this move motivated by a true need to move ASAP? Because this doesn’t really read like it was written by someone in their thirties. Frankly, if it’s not a true need, it doesn’t seem from this post that you’re in a financial position to do this on anything close to a safe manner. And thus: if this is just a desire, no matter how strong the impulse is, it sounds like you need to wait.

    I am not trying to be patronizing or condescending: I would just hate to see someone put themselves at the mercy of the world like it seems you may be about to.














  • FreshRss also allows you (with some reading/testing) to scrape web pages that don’t have aftual RSS feeds. What I like is that it lets me read on web at work where I can’t use my phone, and use my phone elsewhere, and keep it all synced.

    I’m also a data/hoarder type so I like knowing that as long as I run it, I don’t lose my feeds!



    1. Friends and family bankrupted by basic medical needs;
    2. Friends WITH medical insurance unable to afford basic medications like insulin or asthma control inhalers;
    3. The increased atomization of society has led to a collapse of community in most of my country: people don’t care about each other because they can’t because they don’t have the time or money;
    4. It has driven us and continues to drive us towards the complete collapse of the biological systems that sustain our planet at an ever increasing rate.

    The only thing people can point and do point to is “oh but more people have more cheap commodities.” Great! At the expense of the common dignity of man and the ecosystems in which he depends, an ever smaller class of bloated egotists has gotten rich beyond comprehension while the rest of the world literally burns and melts in the name of increasing fortunes already beyond any and all conception of need. At the same time, the life of the average person is marked by degraded environments, exposures to industrial toxins, has their profession increasingly made precarious, has the cost of living increase while wages stagnate or shrink, and now is plagued by disasters directly resulting from the climate change a fossil carbon economy has caused.

    What about any of that should I like? That I can eat a hamburger for $10 that is mostly ammonia-cleansed meat filler…?
