  • I share plenty of details about myself so people can know me and my interests. It is highly important to pay attention to what information you are agreeing to share when you sign up for a social media account.

      In your case it’s fine but some people put too much information about themselves online and they can be risking it because of some psycho who is stalking them. There are some dangerous people on the internet. You just need to be careful what personal information you put online.

      As long as I'm fine and I feel comfortable and so do my friends who do not put too much information about themselves either, then it's all good.

      All good in the hood then

      Yeppers.
  • Life is generally pretty dangerous. I'd rather make some friends and some enemies than to just hide in the corner my whole life.

      It’s not life that is dangerous. The world has dangerous people in it who are a threat to others making people’s lives miserable by making them suffer unfortunately.

      True. Also a lot of people making themselves miserable and harming themselves regularly, though. And I'd also point out that life anywhere we've ever been outside of this world is even more dangerous than life here on this world. It's not just the other people who will harm you, but the universe as a rule. Whether it is bombarding us with cosmic radiation, competing with other animals for food and other resources, parasites and infections eating us from the inside out, or even our own bodies (cancer, diabetes, mental health crises, addiction, etc.) killing themselves in literal ways, the universe hates us all. Some people try to offset this cold hard reality by inventing a benevolent omnipotent imaginary friend who will transport them magically to paradise when they die, but even that seemingly benign comfort has evolved into radical extremism with armies of bloodthirsty terrorists making it their life's mission to kill anyone whose personal imaginary friend goes by a different name than theirs. Even the pessimist saying that the glass is half full is far too optimistic, because, in this universe, the liquid in the glass is just as likely to be bleach as it is to be water; and if it is water, it likely contains microorganisms who will chew their way out through your liver if you drink it. Or maybe a bully comes by, drinks whatever little water you got, breaks the glass, then stabs you with it. That's just life. If you want me to believe it's not that bad, then show me one person who made it out alive.

      People who harm themselves need plenty of help and support in life so they can stop what they’re doing. How does the universe harm us when it is a place for us to observe? The universe doesn’t harm us so I’m not sure I understand what you mean. I don’t think the universe feels hatred or any other emotion. Living beings on Earth feel many things such as hatred. We are part of the universe on a spinning rock. We are like grains of sand in the universe. Life on Earth has emotions but the universe that is beyond us does not do anything to us. It is true some people have an imaginary friend who hide from reality. I know where you are coming from by saying people kill in the name of their imaginary friend. Those people are the ones with a lot of hate and anger. Someone who kills another person including the glass scenario you describe are the ones who are responsible for their own actions and must suffer the consequences in prison. Killing somebody is not life. It is the reality of what people are capable of doing. It is part of life to survive and make it out alive and not to be killed by a murderer.

      I see where you are coming from as well. I especially agree that people who are on a destructive path need help and support from outside, but that's my point: living life is what put those people into their predicament. Everything that happens to us, good, bad, or indifferent, is a product of the universe's provision. Look at it this way, the universe brought you life, and the universe will take it away. The universe made mankind, and the universe will, someday, wipe it out just the same. There is a bounty of suffering awaiting us and it's up to us to do what we can to at least try to enjoy something positive at least for a few moments here and there.

      People on a destructive path like to see the world burn because they are immoral people. I know my parents gave me life through reproduction. Everyone else is created the same way. People and other species create life through reproduction. The life that’s given can be taken away by someone who kills. I’m not sure I understand how the universe is to blame for that. People who create people are all of mankind or as I prefer to say humankind instead to be equal with both gender. Unfortunately, there is suffering in the world both physically and mentally but I don’t see how the universe is to blame for that. Suffering is caused by poor treatment from the wrong people.
  • I like to share my interests. Not so much my politics because that can be controversial. I am not a complete open book.
