The next time you hear someone say they're just vibing in life without a job, just look at this image.

You should see some of the "American food" they sell in some parts of Europe and Asia. I feel like it's pretty typical everywhere to misunderstand and exoticize other cultures.
Not just typical. It should be celebrated. I for one throughly enjoy seeing cross cultural exchanges of any creative type. Exotic doesn't need to be derogatory or dehumanizing. (it's really unfortunate that it most often is.) Everybody is exotic somewhere.

As someone who effectively lives in his grandmother's attic and "vibes" I am insulted by the vague comparison. I have to budget with my job damnit, I work as a courier one day a week.
The rest of the week is me doing autism and childhood PTSD things, so jacking off and playing Fallout NV. Also getting new scars via cats.
I also have a far better sense of fashion, THE 1940 SWEDISH TANKER GREAT COAT STAYS ON DURING SEX!

I have enough room to pace in a circle while listening to music and emotionally spiral over my past failures, perpetual inadequacy, etcetera. Also I sometimes need to sleep so I lay down at times. Also it isn't seven days a week, I need to go out to the desert and deliver vegetables and other produce every Friday.
That sounds mostly okay!

I consider it sex when my alter ego takes control and starts ravaging my body. Big grey area though, in terms of consent.

This is, apparently, Shanin Blake. This is a picture from 2017.
Arguably, there's a lot to criticize her about, but her leading a carefree lifestyle and finding success in publicizing it doesn't seem like one.
Trustafarian is an absolutely brilliant insult.

Oof. I get that. Must be rough finding people who are both considerate and capable of dealing with that complexity.

Tbh, that's not true. If your standards are low enough, you can get by with very little money.
When I was at university (10 years ago) I could get by with 5-10h of work per week. I had a single-room flat and no car, a 10yo laptop, a cheapo second-hand phone and ate cheap food. The total amount of assistance that I received from my parents were birthday and christmas presents with a total worth of €700 over 5 years.
Now I have a larger flat, a wife, two kids and a car. Now I need much more money.
Of course, neither the cost nor the lifestyle are comparable.

i sincerely doubt you could afford to live on barely part time work 10 years ago, which would be 2015, unless you were massively subsidized by unemployment, an angel investor, or you were a squatter

Lucky, my left is way better and im super right handed. Plus the pins on my masturbation cape got sugary coctail on them and they're really hard to clean.

It's rare, finding another with a similar disposition and making it a foursome is the dream.

It's so weird seeing people making poor interpretations of another ethnicity's culture their entire identity. I wonder if there are weirdos in India rocking lederhosen or milkmaid outfits at random music festivals and ranting to strangers about Calvinism?
The longstanding tradition in India is to wander around naked.

World has always been fucked (see Billy Joel's "we didn't start the fire" for simple reference). Life is what you make of it
I'm still waiting for somebody to make a mashup of Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire" and The Prodigy's "Firestarter".

The Antarctic used to have a giant ozone hole. In the late 1960's, Lake Erie was dead from pollution. The Cuyahoga River in Ohio was so polluted it caught fire. Rain was so acidic that statues in cities were dissolving.
Read history instead of following social media hype. Despite Trump turning back the clock a few years, the environment has improved dramatically over the past 50 years.
I grew up next to the Cuyahoga in the '70s and I don't think people today could even begin to understand how nasty it really was. Old tires everywhere, rusting steel barrels full of god knows what, and a thick oily scum over any part of it that wasn't moving. Factories along the edge had big drainage pipes that just emptied directly into the river (one of these factories made Oasis foam, that green shit florists stick flowers into). The real shocker was not that the river caught fire from time to time, but that it wasn't on fire all the time.

I paid €350 for my flat and made €25/h doing maths tutoring. I had a monthly budget of €800 in 2015 and that was enough.
I never received unemployment benefits and why on earth would someone invest in a random student?

Those examples you mention are pretty insignificant compared to the global warming crisis we are experiencing now. Reading history won't really help, because we have never faced what we have faced now in human history: manmade global warming in an industrialised, highly specialised society.

Your premise is that it's going to get a lot worse. But the past 50 years has been improving. It's therefore reasonable to believe we will keep improving.
That is silly logic.
Also the past 50 years has not been all improvement, the global warming crisis has steadily grown worse to name the most obvious. The economic crisis following the results of that global warming is also just going to get worse. This will lead to more political crises as politics will get steadily radicalised and authoritarian.

I want to visit America one time just for the food. I keep hearing from American TV about twinkies and red vines and all kinds of stuff, then I try them whenever I get a chance here in the UK and theyre so bad. I need to know for sure whether we're getting a version that conforms to our food laws and they lose a lot in the process or if theyre really that terrible.
If you want good American food, when you get here go to a Chinese restaurant.
