My humble opinion: burnout exists, laziness doesn’t
Laziness is a buzzword concept to describe way too many states of mind, downplaying the causes of lack of motivation.
I think there are some words that, if avoided, allow deeper investigation into important things, and “lazy” is in the top 10 of that list
E soprattutto il punto è che il suo governo si regge a malapena sull’odio e la disinformazione, stica di cosa accadrà realmente, d’altronde molti dei suoi voti vengono dalla campagna dove non sanno nemmeno cosa sia un pride, mentre i cittadini di Budapest (a partire dal sindaco) sarebbero pronti a occupargli le piazze se veramente lo vieta
IT’S BEEN A LOOOOONG ROOOAD
no really I completely understand it can sound cringe but I enjoyed singing it almost every time

Star Trek Enterprise
And as an italian 90s kid, all cartoons on air in the 2000s
I read cows at first 🫠
Dope stuff anyway
Cows negotiating territory is very funny 😁
Would love a documentary about it, if you have any pointers
My favourite is language, not even writing, but language itself. We could collectively invent ways to understand each others with codes shared by tens of millions of individuals, living kilometres apart.
And then I also love early astronomy, like being able to approximate Earth’s circumference (or later the time needed to reach Asia by navigating west), based on the shadow lenght at two fairly distant (but still pretty close) places, thanks to that quirky thing some friends of yours invented to divide land called geometry. To say nothing of those demonstrating Earth rotates around the Sun just by looking at star positions during the year.
As for recent things, something pretty cool we take for granted is radio signals. Information getting places without anything moving, just invisible vibrations through space.
Most handsome capitalist I know
What’s funny to me is that such a robot takeover would mean all humans are (wage-)enslaved rather than 99% of us like right now
We already have a ruler, the Money god, that is already enslaving many, killing others, and silencing dissent. I might actually prefer if my ruler was some superintelligent logical being rather a than few male 60yos hoping to book the next trip to some harem island that might or might not have minors in it taken directly from the territories at war around the world
Hi, Italian here
Italy, like many European countries, had strong social-democratic foundations. Many state jobs, strong state education, one of the best state healthcares out there, strong labour laws with contracts made by unions with specific job sectors.
That’s now mostly on paper, and things change significantly from region to region. For example Emilia Romagna is still pretty strong on those, but go to the south and you’ll see state school buildings being closed because they might collapse, or not offering any heating or A/C for the kids. Public healthcare is now very understaffed in most regions.
As for labour laws, companies aren’t exactly too happy giving the expected raises or following work hours, and unskilled jobs are a disaster of underpay and unpaid overtime.
In general, social cohesion is hit or miss. Sure,most people are welcoming and friendly, but many of them are not paying all of their taxes. You’re friends with the person in front of you, not with your whole nation.
Now that I broke some of the possible expectations: yes it’s a good idea to come here. With time you will find some job, especially in the north and centre regions, just prepare for high rents in big cities and you’ll be fine. Oh and possibly find somebody to help with taxes. If you decide for Rome, Napoli or Palermo, don’t drive right away, take your time to learn how people drive here, what to expect etc

Many that fight for civic rights, also fight the class war, protesting for both
Civil rights are actually a good platform to spread social awareness
“Scooter - She Said” would have me go back to 13yo me chilling in a camping site with my family, listening to my mp3
“Placebo - Special Needs” is connected instead to a period of trips with friends and complex feelings, especially feeling like being alive again
The random use of Italian words
Behold, my new Savona Patty. Then, have some Bellissimo Salad. Would you like some Grazie topping, perhaps a Fortuna sauce?
I wouldn’t make a direct connection between the two. Let’s ask “security from what?”
Security from warfare doesn’t need to limit individual freedom, perhaps it just requires a certain part of people and economic activity to engage in military activity, production, and research.
Security from poverty increases individual freedom. If the government helps those who lost their job, then you don’t need to rely on having a job to survive, only to improve your economic status and living standards.
Security from crime is possibly more tricky. Less control you apply on a population, more likely it is for them to do crime. Although fighting poverty does help prevent much of that crime, especially organized crime.
But maybe you meant more on an individual level, than a system level. In that case sure, being an employee is probably the most secure option, although that’s only true if the job contract limits firing. Aspiring to a better job, perhaps moving to a country or state with better worker rights, increases both security and freedom. For example, as an Italian I earn X and if I decide to have children I’d have huge costs and issues with parental leaves. If I moved to Sweden, not only I would have about a 30% increase in salary, but as a parent I would receive much more help, both for leaves and for free nursery and such (if I’m not mistaken). Plus I would cut costs in cars, as I wouldn’t need one. So, higher security (I can save more money) and higher freedom (more free time).
I wonder what’s worse :(
