I don't have much hope for the future anymore, it feels all very bleak. I don't know if there's really a point in working hard, studying or even expecting to have a half decent future, because ai will replace almost all of us unless the tech ceos and the government wants to step in, which they won't with how they are. there's a big chance we'll all be dirt poor living horrible lives, in technofeudalist ultra conservative dictatorships, in the not all that distant future, if WW3 doesn't kill us first. the risk feels more imminent than ever. then there's climate change, and if we're dirt poor and abandonned by our governments, we're even more fucked. life will be horrible for men who aren't ultra rich already, but for women it will be even worse since i'm like 75% sure with the heritage foundation in power with their projects, and the massive brainwashing of gen z & alpha boys/men, women will be stripped of their rights completely and all the western world will follow. so i don't know if there's a point in sticking around, if on top of everything i'm going to end up as some slave to some guy who hates me.

i've always known govs were corrupted and there's lots of hidden evil in this world, but now it's so naked and blatant. everyone is becoming crazy, and we're all getting so extreme politically. i also feel like i feel this world is being operated increasingly by evil rich people who hate us and want to do everything that makes them more powerful and rich at our expense, and there's nothing we can do.

I think we're all living in the very end of an era; of peace in the west, freedom, high living standards, abundance, and human rights. I think soon, we'll be living in a horrible dystopian world none of us ever thought we'd know.

i sometimes wonder if living is worth it, if we'll all be miserable soon without escape

I matched with a guy on a dating app. The conversation was good, flirty, and engaged. He seemed genuinely interested and even talked about meeting up, like he was available and open to it.

The last time we talked was Dec 31 around 8pm. I suggested meeting up sometime soon, nothing pushy, just casually suggested it. Since then, he hasn’t responded at all it’s now almost three days later. This includes New Year’s Day and the start of the weekend.

I haven’t double-texted or followed up yet. I’m trying to give the benefit of the doubt because of the holiday, but the silence feels confusing since he previously seemed enthusiastic.

Does this usually mean loss of interest?

Being busy / distracted?

Avoiding saying no directly?

Or is this still within a normal window?
