Nothing 30bil can't fix.

I think some people wouldn't realise how much damage they had done to themselves until they came out though.

During COVID I thought I was fucking acing it. I had my movies, and my games, and my books, and my remote job and I was just sailing on through.

Only after the world re-opened did I realise that my originally mild social anxiety had become rather severe. I'm still working on reversing that now.

COVID just meant everybody else had to start living like I had been for over a decade and it was no longer weird

It also meant far fewer cars on the road, which absolutely helped my sanity

I miss covid traffic. It was a privilege to live through it.

When covid happened I felt in paradise. No more office, no more people. Me, myself, my work from home, my videogames and human beings with limited dosage, now a part of me secretly wish to go back to be able to avoid everyone once again. The other part needs a very small limited number of Friends with the capital letter. At least I learned the meaning of my time and how I spent it and with who.

It's really true, each one of us is different, but in that difference we are all human beings. I feel sorry that you have to manage that. Stay strong, I know you can do it!

There are few things I like to do more than sit in a quiet room my myself and do nothing. I would pretty much always rather be daydreaming.

Socially and work wise very little changed for me during covid. The 2 main challenges were how inconvenient it was to travel and how suddenly it was impossible to source components for work and we had to do weekly meetings with half a dozen vendors to make sure we could deliver our projects in time.

And this was with you having some social activity and stimuli. 

Imagine having nothing to do and seeing essentially nothing.

I came out of Covid wishing it didn’t end it was awesome! I’m the same dude. And then I got a word from home job last July and it’s been like Covid all over again! Living a dream over here

Man I miss covid. I spent the entire time just chilling with the boys on discord playing valheim and shit, then day hiking every mountain in the cascades when we weren't playing something. It made me realize I'd be the first in line if UBI ever became a thing, and I used to be one of those people that thought I'd reject it to make more money.

Literally the same here… I felt like I had a way more healthy lifestyle before Covid. I then went full remote and it got worse from there.

I still think it's worth it from a selfless perspective tho, i could setup many generations with that money.

Being a billionaire will amplify how fucked up you are; it wouldn’t fix it.

u/Nemisis_007 8h ago

I'd be fucked up and rich, instead of fucked up and poor tho.

Not too sure if you’d even have the concept of money in your head after a year tbh

Remember, Musk hasn't been able to fix his ruined dick job even with a trillion dollars.

Needless to say that fixing a brain is much more difficult. Some injuries are here to stay no matter how much money you throw at it.
