This only works if the source of the pain is an infection. If the pain is from an exposed nerve this will be torture.

Syzygy - a roughly straight-line configuration of three or more celestial bodies in a gravitational system.
Thanks for the new word!
Have you checked out Bisq?
Not sure why you interpreted my post as accusatory. I agree we’re all along for the ride and there isn’t much we can do. As far as what I’m ‘bringing to the party’, I guess I would say that we should opt out of their broken system as much as possible. Reject blind consumerism and reject the extreme polarization the media is constantly trying to instill in us. Create value for others and store your economic energy in a system they can’t control (Bitcoin). Try to raise awareness in others of the unfairness of the system, and its inevitable doom due to the inherrent requirement of infinite growth with finite resources (the logic of a cancer cell). It’s not much on an individual scale, and probably won’t affect the ultimate outcome, but hopefully we and the people we love can be somewhat insulated from the system as it exists and the chaos that will come when it falls.
Ideally, but the ones with their hands on the controls are the biggest beneficiaries of the current system, so it’s unlikely to change without a revolution or collapse.

Damn. Definitely got lucky on that.
Ultimately it has to do with the way our society is structured economically. We need continuous growth to pay off the debt we’re continuously accruing. If growth stalls or reverses the whole system collapses. Population decrease basically ensures that the required economic growth won’t occur.
You sound exhausting.
Same. Just this morning actually. And here I was thinking I was done with social media after the Reddit API debacle. So far Lemmy scratches that same itch for me.
Dental schools are a good option for general care too. Cheap and surprisingly high quality work, but very slow.
