I feel you.
Let me play devil's advocate tho and say:
You can still do this if you really want to and you have at least double the life expectancy. I think we have become too good at entertainment and have collectively fried our dopamine receptors with instant reward, therefore making mundane work unbearable. -

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I agree with that, but I don't think these statements necessarily contradict each other.

I stopped lying in interviews. I'm tired of this shit. Fuck it, if my life is ruined, whatever, same outcome.
Just stop lying in general. If the people around you are invested in some fake reality its probably not good for you and youre better off.

You are ofc aware that even if we successfully get rid of capitalism, we can't get rid of having to work, right?
-
If by vibe for the rest of the time you mean constantly watch for various forms of life threatening danger. Then sure.
Still a better time than constantly watching out for Manager Mark.

i wonder how dangerous van life really is
well driving is one of the most dangerous things you can do, but if you avoid roads with significant traffic and go slow it might be decently safe

what precisely do you think robots exist for?

They don't, not in the way you are implying

I still like mundane work when its for people i care about. When there are people i care about.
It's the capitalism and petty tyrannies that do it.
Not the work.

But the way we work could change.

I can definitely get behind this. It also makes me feel good about myself to help people I like.

This is the winner for me.
I'm a manager, and I do my best to make things fulfilling, productive, physically and psychologically safe, and minimally stressful. I'm not the capitalist, so I don't have full control. But if those of us closer to the ground try to make the way we work more bearable, it can have an impact on the immediate surroundings.
But yeah, we do need to fix the overarching system, since we don't have full control in this one.

I'm with you on this. I generally disfavor candidates that are clearly telling me what they think I want to hear. I used to favor candidates who mentioned "I gotta get paid." Unfortunately, the new boss does not like that, so I gotta ditch that

Yeah. Work can actually be pretty cool. Like, yes, id usually rather be having an orgasm from injecting cheesecake and a few grams of lsd directly into relevant places, but even if i coukd fo that all the time, id still want a little variety.

We'd still need to build houses, but it could be a thing you do with your friends for fun, because building stuff is fun and if it wasnt, kids wouldnt play with legos or sand castles. Then you watch/help the new residents move in. Maybe compete in a local construction crew league if you still need hierarchy and ego motivation.

To pass butter.

i was thinking more about robbers and general nasty people trying to fuck you for what you have (including the van itself), but we probably live in very different places.

what are you on about? ever look at a modern factory? they're filled with robots that do enough work to replace 10 people.
obviously under capitalism this work just goes into making rich people richer, which is why we need to get rid of capitalism so these fancy robots we've built can actually let us live chill lives with minimal required human labour.

In order to replace all work you would need generic purpose robots, hence my line about what you are implying.
Even with all the automation we have now, people still work.
