Reply to comment by YawnTractor_1756 in Confirmed: Global floods, droughts worsening with warming by besselfunctions

Unless you live in a palce like the town i live in where the local news that are portrayed as something good isnt if you actually know whats being done. Stuff like "new infrastructure". Sounds good right? except its designed to be anti-pedestrian repeating same mistakes our city architect swore not to do years ago.

  • "New hospital, cool right, but when you remember that healthcare is cripplingly expensive it's depressing"
  • "New school cool right, but when you remember that teachers are underpaid it's depressing"
  • "New houses cool right, but when you remember few young people can afford houses it's depressing"
  • "New festival cool right, but when you remember how many people go without enough food it's depressing."

If you want to find depressing element in anything, you will. I am trying my best, but one has to choose to be happy, to actually be happy.

Let me twist this a bit.

"New hospital, cool right, but when you remember that you are the one paying for other peoples poor life choices its depressing."

"New school cool right, but when you remember this results in parents driving their children across town to it polluting everyones slung in the process it's depressing"

"New houses cool right, but when you remember that they look like something soviets buit in the 60s and the city architect simply rubberstamps any project coming across his desk it's depressing"

"New festival cool right, but when you remember the noise pollution will make sure you are sleep deprived for a week it's depressing."

Again, happiness is a choice. If on one hand you want it, but on the other you can't seem to make yourself choose to view the world so it wold happen, consider talking to specialist, I'm not trying to be offensive.

Choosing to be happy in a situation of despair is a sign of mental illness.
