I wasn't talking about speech but about actions. Well, speech too. I don't remember the last time anyone spoke to me to say anything remotely important. It's like I'm in a machine room and I see all these technicians scrambling around the place desperately trying to keep their machinery running. And I'm just standing there like what for? I don't know if those people are miserable, they can't all be, but I certainly am. So why would I care if it all goes up in flames? It's not just the difference in perspective with other people, it's also how abstract and absurd it all is. I never realized how little control I really have over things. I think most of life really does just happen to you. Or maybe that's just my experience, who knows

That's unfortunate. They have pretty great living standards over there. I chalk it up to them being white. Where are you from then?
