I'm in the same spot, tbh. I want to do something, but I just can't figure out what yet. I'm not giving up though. We can definitely do this.

I missed it too, at first. Probably because I look for the lowercase dbzer0 with the numeric on the end.
My first thought. Seems appropriate.
Just fyi, I'm pointing out Trump's similarities to an evil villain. I'm not using this to agree. I'm very much against this, having grown up in the woods (practically raised by my local forest, as my mother was an awful drunk and single parent) and I spent most of my youth walking through the peace and quiet of the trees.
I grew up with my mother seeing nothing but my father in me, and was abused for it. Those trees gave me the shelter I needed and I would have been 100x more a mess if I didn't have them. So no. Don't take my fucking trees en masse.
They need GOSHA. Galactic Occupationaly Health and Safety Association. I mean, they had a Trade Federation, wth. I guess we can chalk it up to being a long long time ago when safety wasn't as mandatory.
Maybe Anakin pointed the Death Star in his face to check it out after it was made. Like father like son.
I partially agree. Intelligence tends to also go hand in hand with anxiety a lot of the time. A lot of true geniuses don't even know what social integration is. There are a lot of extremely intelligent people that shy from society as a whole.
It might be just the groups I've been in, but I've seen a lot of escapism in the intelligent individuals I've met, and people are all too happy to just ignore their existence and flock to the few shining stars. I can't quite really put words to this, so I may not be really articulating what I mean properly. Sorry about that. I'm honestly just concerned for the good people that get squashed by society. That just don't fit in. Most of those individuals tend to be highly intelligent, however, ridiculing people who aren't as intelligent is the same deal.
I guess I mean to say that my people are the hiding people. The people who have something to say or to contribute, but this fast paced world is just too much for them.
So I herd you liek kipz of mud.
Marketing a skill that's good for learning random skills is a bit harder though, depending on where your main interests lay. If you know a little bit about everything in technology, maybe that can work.
However, management in retail is where my marketable skillset is. Because I know a good amount of every department, I will always be that call in that can do any position, instead of being considered for a higher position in one department. I've done management duties for customer service, frozen dairy, general merchandise, paints, electronics, photo, etc for eleven years. I never get a higher position when it opens because there's always someone more specialized in that position.
Don't get me wrong. I don't completely disagree with you. I have crazy good problem solving skills. I've come to love my ADHD, having gone completely unmedicated for it all my life (my father wouldn't approve Ritalin when I was diagnosed as a kid and they needed both parent's consent). I just wish I could do more than a little bit of everything sometimes.
I use Krita, Aseprite, and Gimp. I must say, though, I'm loving Gimp 3. Now if we could just push past the proprietary docx plugins bullshit and make odf industry standard...
Edit: Ah, shoot. I forgot Inkscape for vector art. Shame on me... I love Inkscape.
Collecting hobbies is an everybody thing. Making a hobby of collecting hobbies is an ADHD thing. You gotta have it to understand it. Its literally a jack of all trades master of none deal, except all previous trades are boring unless you mix them up.
So honestly, strike the jack of all trades. It's more like jack of random trades at random times that randomly catch your interest for a random amount of time.
I believe that its pointless to argue this way or that about antinatalism, as we no longer have control of a population encroaching 8 billion. It just becomes a moot point to bash each other on over the internet (which can be said about a multitude of other subjects).
I'm not going to have kids. That's just what I want. Going extreme on antinatalism or pronatalism is just circling back to telling other people what they should do with their bodies. Everything is just so extreme these days. Its do or die in the eyes of the public, no matter what you do, and its grating.
Now the real question is... do you use fish shell?
