The Luddites (shout out to Nottingham) were lace weavers who were going to be replaced by mechanical weaving machines so they smashed up the machines to keep their jobs. We should all be more like the Luddites. Smash the servers, kill off AI, keep jobs for people.

The busybody neighbour tried to apologise to the recluse neighbour at one point with a gift basket. They returned it. A few years ago I used to talk to the latter more, but have maybe exchanged one surface conversation in the last 2 years

We had a microcosm of this sort of play out on our street a year or two ago - two neighbours got shitty at each other (one a busy body, one a recluse), and because we tried to be friendly to all, well, that's not allowed. Still better than what Sydney was like, but it's such a waste of attention.

It is way too easy to make enemies of no consequence in mid-sized towns. Also if people talk shit about someone, never call them on it, because neither they or the someone will ever have your back. God it's like fucking high school all over again.

Abstinence reasoning does show the best solution to things is not doing a thing. Buses are better than cars for traffic, but even better is not needing people to get on the road at all. UBI is great, if we have to have money at all. Of course if we have to do the things, safeguards are critical.
