He believes that consumerism is harming nature and animals.
Every year around this time, the pressure to spend ramps up like clockwork. The same playlists loop in every store, the same scented candles hit the shelves, the same ads flood every screen you own. None of that is accidental. According to the American Psychological Association, companies use… read more
Christmas is rough this year for my family. I'm grateful that we're receiving help and have family to help with gifts for our kiddos.

Not the happiest post to put out there but like: Can I talk about how tired I am of consumerism, how Gaming Industry is just a monopoly of who manages to milk out more money, and Ai spreading like a plague?🥹 I hate GTA 6, if not enough people revolt, it will ruin Gaming altogether.

Or consumerism. And it doesn't have to be big. For example, I re-use my takeout containers, compost, make a lot of what I want, and try to mend my clothes (not very often though.) I'm still someone who like to buy stuff, like kitchen gadgets and notebooks, but I think it's important to reduce what… read more
What do you think about what happens in society now with the rise of consumerism? My personal take is multi-leveled: the first level of the problem is that our society became both socially and economically disfunctional, especially due to the cosmopolitan consumerist culture of Baby Boomers and… (edited) read more
The Devil: Getting this card can mean you feel trapped, could mean you feel emptiness, and a lack of of fulfillment in your life. It can mean you feel you are a slave to consumerism, materialism, and opulence, and that no matter how hard you try, you just can’t shake off wanting to indulge. In… read more

"As long as the general population is passive, apathetic, and diverted to consumerism or hatred of the vulnerable, then the powerful can do as they please, and those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome." ~ Noam Chomsky
Start by fighting consumerism and stop wasting your energy on things that have no meaning. Do things that bring meaning to your life, one step at a time.
Have you heard about Wu Wei? It is the ancient Chinese law of wisdom, which declares “inaction” as the fundamental value of being.

I believe that birthday celebrations can be overrated. While they can be a special occasion to appreciate the past year and look forward to the future, I think that they can also become overly commercialized and focused on hedonism. It's essential to keep in mind the deeper values and relationships… read more
What’s one of the biggest problems of the human mind? Is our objective function to reach happiness or to reach short term happiness with diminishing returns?

Is the advent of AI and the discovery of new tech like the new research on superconductors an alarming reality for humans in today's time?
Do you believe in the source? In "body, mind, and spirit?" Or something else? Are you happy with your system? Let's challenge ourselves to learn where we do not know the edges of our mind, or reality. I think that we are parts of a greater eternal mind that is filtered through our individual… read more

You know there's an artists point of view and that those observing the art, is all audience interpretation. A song can be about God but you would never know simply from the lyrics. A photo could seem like promoting a brand when it's meant to be sad for reasons involving the human condition and… read more

Heres my perspective of it, Christmas is a holiday stolen from the pagans which was called Yule and celebrated for the winter solstice im sure everyone knows and repurposed to celebrate the birthday of Jesus which actually occurred in the summer now that makes no sense. The holiday is a… read more
I could probably write something disingenuous and pseudo-intellectual about how these images are about how consumerism and over consumption are bad. But the real reason I took these pictures like most of my pictures is because the colours and shapes looked cool 🤤. (edited)
I don't know as I got older I don't really enjoy Christmas all the much, I don't like spending money on expensive gifts or the fact its all about consumerism as it's all about the retail, candy and card companies. I just don't find joy in a holiday that is all about family, what if you have no one… read more
One of the best simplest and cleanest depiction of a simulation world, brimming with consumerism and Pretentiousness of the reel world.
The consumerism frenzy got to me, atleast I got this Lego set from one of the best movies this year
Art is a paradox...a masterpiece of ambiguity. We don’t buy paintings, sculptures, or sketches. What we truly acquire is a mystery, a question frozen in time and color, framed and hung on a wall like an unanswered riddle. The price we pay is not for mere pigments on canvas but for the privilege of… read more

I loved the movie. It takes a dump on both nihilism and consumerism, and how the nihilism created to combat souless corporatism slowly became just as mindless as the movie progressed. I loved both Edward Norton and Brad Pitt's performance and I am disappointed in myself for not finding this movie… read more
