How many 14 year olds have $50 per month going spare?

Meth. Not even once.

Not one single government cares so much about it tho.

Way to generalise, bro. There are some low lying island states that are going to disappear under the rising sea levels. I think they are taking it pretty seriously.

Don't bullshit please.

I feel you, but you need to remember that the world is generally a pretty chaotic place and predicting the future when complex systems pass tipping points and transition to new equilibria (as they are at the moment) is pretty difficult.

Invest in yourself, your ability to cope with new and unfamiliar things, and build resilience. Resilience being the ability to bounce forward when you hit rocky patches. Don't expect to bounce back and end up where you left off, but learn to adjust to the chaos where you need to.

Develop your capabilities until you have a sense of being a competent, worthwhile and dependable person outside of the circus going on around us. Someone that isn't quite so dependent on the big bad system we are often forced to be part of.

Surely small Government means repealing all that red tape enforcing individual property rights too?

Is it really a law if it's unenforceable?

Can't we make a society people want to live and procreate in instead of slapping a sticking plaster on a civilisation that doesn't want to go on anymore?

That's not microdosing. That's macrodosing.

Is this what an out of control madman looks like?

Tbh I have wanted something like this for ages. Is annoying if you want fish and chips and you can't get any fresh veg with it as a palate cleanser.

Your brain is constantly processing the inputs from all of your senses and pretty much ignoring them if they fit with what it is already expecting.

Your brain is lazy. If everything seems to fit with what your brain expects then you believe that what you are seing is reality and you generally ignore it.

Generally the mind only focuses on what it believes is salient/interesting/unexpected.
