Heard a story from a friend a while back of her friend who walked into one of those designers' goods store only to be ignored by the sales assistant because of her dress attire. So in order to prove her 'dollar value', she picked up the most expensive item and purchased it right away. She was gloating, but hey, the sales assistant made a huge sale too. Good on them both!

But really, I see it as immaturity. One who has a strong sense of self would probably not be too much affected by people's opinions or actions. They are those who would just stride away in a typical Uranian way: stuff them, stuff the world, you do whatever you want but I get to do what I want based on my own principles, ethics and values.

So, on that kind of crazy note.
I'm kind of tired of thinking or feeling.

I'm one for solutions instead of well-intentioned pep-talk. A temporary remedy to this feeling, I suggest, is to just turn off your phone. Deactivate Facebook (if you have it). Shut down and give up on anything. Don't respond to anyone who goes out of your way to speak to you (including me, right now, if you don't want to). Stop forcing yourself to interact with people. Every once in a while I "disappear" for 2 weeks and I just sit in silence and isolation with myself. I avoid interaction and it feels so good afterwards because of how "underwhelmed" I feel.

As for racism, hypersexualization of almost everything, redundant unnecessary information about unnecessary privileged people who contribute NOTHING to humanity, media bullsh!t etc... I wrote a big paragraph about this but I deleted it because I think it might be too much and quite frankly, cyber-surveillance is something that has made me extremely paranoid (given my identity and beliefs). It's something I, generally, feel much more comfortable discussing with people in person only.

I have a simple question though (please don't force yourself to respond if you don't want to). In theory, nothing is stopping you from doing what you wish... Living in the woods... But in the practical world, obviously, that's not always the case. I think, at times, because we're so socially conditioned, we tend to think that what one can do in theory is impossible when it isn't. In reality, we're just libidinous beings, who become all too easily attached to routine and comfort. My question is: What's *really* stopping you from doing so? The answer should be nothing but it almost always never is.

Fear.... To be brutally honest with myself. I take routine and security to New levels. I admire people who can run off to LA and risk everything. (some old friends of mine have)

You just need someone to tell you they love you. I love you

I'm feeling extremely antisocial - if that's the correct term. Which I don't care if it technically is or is not.
I'm just feeling like I want to be alone. I don't want to talk much to people. It came on pretty suddenly.
I'm tired of social rules, things that you do and don't do because of societies popular view of how you should behave. Political correctness. I'm tired of this racism crap. It deeply, DEEPLY disturbs me. It really angers me. I don't understand racism. (the current protests and etc. Things local and just all over - accusations etc)
I'm tired of what feels to me like an overall sexual obsession in people. I'm tired of seeing sexual things all over - in discussion topics, on tv, ads... used to sell us things. Articles about who the sexiest celebs are and all that crap.
I'm tired of money, and politics.... and greed. Flashiness.

Sorry... I could go on. I am just tired of being a part of all of this, being surrounded by it. I'm feeling like a square peg around a bunch of round holes.

An absolute DREAM for me would be to live out in the woods in Montana. Chill out there... enjoy nature, build things, have a garden in the spring/summer. All that stuff. Isolation. I would truly truly be happy with that.

I come here, and I get online. Sometimes I wonder why. If I had some land, a wooded area to myself, I could easily leave all of this behind. I'd be happy to be oblivious to what's going on outside of my box. I hate the media.

Anyway, sorry. Just a very short, random, unorganized venting.
I'm just feeling like being alone, being isolated. I don't really feel like talking all that much and it's getting stronger.
I don't feel depressed or really even angry. Just... Overwhelmed I guess and an overall ... Concern for lack of a better term for the future of the world.

So, on that kind of crazy note.
I'm kind of tired of thinking or feeling.

It was an astro question but I decided I don't care.

I feel the isolation too, but I have experience this all my life that it feels somehow self-imposed and funny enough, I am actually quite happy by myself. Not all the time, but certainly most. I always frequent the beach to release my grief, sitting by the rocky jetty for a whole day, I really found the sea breeze to be healing, at the very least it cools me down and keeps me chilled.

And being the odd and unconventional one, I am used to going against the trend and do things as I wish, which explains my disconnection to most people who would rather conform. Family presence has always been sporadic since young that I even lack that sense of community/cooperation (sth I needed to learn). A lone nomad/wanderer/hermit would fit me perfectly, but definitely not for the current society.
