  • It isn’t easy for many though, either or both because of mental or physical reasons. Your comment is a very classic case of “this thing is easy for me and works for me therefore it must be the same for everyone else”.

    My anxiety, which has kept me on long-term sick leave for 10+ years, basically shuts down my body and ability to act. The vast majority of the time I’m completely unable to leave my apartment and often even leave the exact spot I’m in. “Just do it” just isn’t possible most of the time, and that isn’t an excuse, laziness or unwillingness. And this is just my specific case, there are as many different and just as real cases as there are people that also find it hard to do whatever thing is hard for them. There is never a “just X” that’s valid for everyone, and it’s idiotic and offensive to think and say so.







  • Imagine being born before World War I and still being alive. You’ve seen more change in the world than anyone ever has, more deeply transforming events and previously unimaginable things become real. Even teens complain about changes in the world and many work so hard to stop them, I can only imagine experiencing so much makes those things seem so childish and ignorant.

    This is the problem with so much complaining. “There aren’t any good games anymore” says the people who only buy the yearly CoD and Fifa releases and don’t even think about thinking about lifting a finger to find all the easily available great games being released constantly. Same with music and everything else. People just complain and somehow don’t realise the only thing they do is show everyone else how dumb they are by not even trying to find the good stuff. Also the constant “I hate ads so much” idiocy and then they just ignore anyone who tells them to install an adblocker.
