i feel the same way, a lot.
in conversation, you could always fall back on your media experiences. So SO many people just talk about movies and music, games too.
also, did you know that when you read interesting things from interesting people, those interesting ideas become part of you? that’s how I enjoy thinking of it. so if you read interesting things from interesting and obscure people, especially historical people, then you will have things to talk about (often very shocking things), and also become wise. In many ways, those experiences have become yours. that’s what i tell myself, when i get sad about how little i’ve done with my life so far…
also refocusing your mindset. dont think about how interesting or uninteresting you might seem to the person you’re talking to. think about how interesting THEY are!
they call protestors zombies too
yeah it really is…i found this one on internet archive, not even looking for it, just researching something totally different–probably because whoever uploaded it painstakingly typed up the whole vile transcript of this “1989 Tribute to Adolf Hitler speech”
I started listening to a 10 hour radio show from 1991 about it. I didnt get far but I was aghast at what I heard…if you look at the subsections there are these “‘A Full Court Press: The Destabilization of the Soviet Union’ by Sean Gervasi” and then “On the role of the US far right in the dismantling of the Soviet Union: ‘The Free Congress Foundation Goes East’ by Russ Bellant and Louis Wolf”. I searched for the Sean Gervasi person and found this which seems easier to disseminate than a radio show. I haven’t been able to read it other than skimming but it seems good. I hope it helps even though it’s a day late
anyone else devastated about Lolita/ Tokitae the captive orca whale dying recently? She spent 53 years in a tiny pool in Miami after being stolen from her mother in the PNW at age 4. People were actually trying to persuade her owner to let her come home, even for just one day, because guess what? Her family pod is still seen regularly by researchers, including her own mother… but no. it didn’t happen. apparently the park she lived in didn’t do anything to protect her from the recent heat domes in Florida either.
I just watched the Millionaire and that was simply amazing! thank you for posting
that’s disappointing, i have some books by him I wanted to read…but yeah, he lived through WWII, and I think it probably broke his heart.
