      Wonder how much of the “Nothing matters and I can’t care about anything” blues is a result of the (imo fake) idea that people should care about big vague important abstractions instead of real specific things

      People who are focused on specific things seem to have better judgment than people who focus mostly on vague abstract values

          Could you wonder a bunch more about it and then maybe figure out THE ANSWER and then I dunno, write about it or something? This has been a BIG MOOD for a lot of my life recently

          Specific things are actionable; vague abstractions are more porn-like.

          that’s a really interesting way to think of it - abstractions are cheap/undemanding fantasies

          I certainly am happier changing out the speakers in my old beater car than solving the world’s problems on this god damned website.

          In the past, all things abstract = God and are accepted as unexplainable or explicable only by a leader; everything else is specific and local and survival-related. Now, both the micro and macro are seen as “specific” insofar as we know they affect us individually.

          This makes us feel responsible for coming up with solutions and enacting them personally. But most big ideas/problems are so complex that there are maybe 6 people alive who legitimately understand them, and so the act of trying to find solutions is unavoidably exhausting.
