Pondering consumerism gone mad

in #blog6 years ago (edited)

I was writing a post about the milk situation in Cambodia. Then I thought it was a stupid post and I decided to be real.

How fucking real is my foot near some leftover cooked larvaes (Cambodian food) and Incredible Hulk with a tiny car?

Lately, parties, rock & roll and drugs bored me.
So, I turned into gaming.
A stupid one that I found in my new smart phone, Disney Magic Kingdom.

In short, I have to build the kingdom piece by piece, summoning characters and fighting the bad.

Why am I doing it? Because I feel a bit tired of real life.
I need a break.
I want to live in the fantasy.
If it was books none would blink an eye.
You think I'm just playing games, but I assure you, I am communicating on levels far above what older generations were.
I am thinking, multitasking, resource managing even.

Fuck yeah!

Games are not all just mindless games.
Your TV was far worse.
Books are worse.
Imagine not only reading a book, but living a book.
Living a story!
Should I beat myself up for being unproductive?
People seem to view video games as a waste of time or somehow harmful to a mind's development.

My interests are already broaden (come on, come on, baby) and I DO exercise!
I have billions times more information at my fingertip, and I am processing, accessing, and applying this gift of the Internet.
Everything is changing in all aspects of our lives, cause of the internet. Please let it and don't tell me I have stopped learning how to communicate face-to-face, because I didn't.

That was going to be the post about milk

Soya milk is full of estrogen and used to give me huge breast. Now it messes up with the hormone I'm on, for hypothetical early symptoms of hypothyroidism and I can't drink it anymore.
What’s the issue with regular organic milk in tetra packaging?
Cambodian mini-marts have organic soy bean milk (with and without flavoring), almond, and rice.
So did normal milk become old fashioned?
I have been pondering this question for days now.
I would like to ask, what is normal milk? (Or what is normal)
I guess regular organic cow milk.
Here is the explanation of the "Milk Situation" in Cambodia:
Most cow’s milk sold in Cambodia is reconstituted from imported milk powder as there are very few cows in the country, which is also why cheese is generally expensive as all imported and not part of standard Cambodian diet. Soy beans are grown locally so soy milk is more popular and cheaper.
I just wish most on sale wasn’t loaded with sugar.

Hilarious, isn't it?

Well, I don't think so.

Drop your shitty comment here, as this blog became a marvelous latrine and I wrote this post just to feel better about myself gaming.

Sort:  

You need to find some really good games, buy an old gaming system and play some classics. Can't lie, I sit and play almost 2 hours a week😬

Only 2 hours. Pitiful lol. I bet I put all of you to shame.

You see Sandrina, we are just a bunch of lazy gamers here. Play on girl! Get some sun and think of something you want next. Just balance.

Who is going to jump on your back for gaming it up, in this day and age? I think there is a huge percentage of gamers on the planet now, so I don't think you're alone. Nor do I think you should feel bad about it. Everything in moderation. If stress is your true addiction than becoming addicted to an uplifting and relaxing game is probably what you need for balance right now.

If you're stressing about not stressing because you are playing videogames than you are still forcing your mind into anxiety.

You are beating yourself up girl. Does it feel good? Cause you keep doing it for too long you will beat yourself to death.

Breath and let go.

Good things will enter your life.

You are hilarious!

Now seriously - only drink raw milk from pasture fed cows - we have a website about this and sell raw milk

No milk > shit milk

;0)

I usually drink Flax milk. Not sure how they catch and milk the Flaxens, but someone has to do it. Sorry you have no real cows in your area. Maybe that is what you could do for work, start a local dairy. OK, bad idea...

Game away, I say, if it makes you happy. There are gazillions of hobbies, and they're just supposed to make you happy. There is no end to what people do for fun. And time they spend doing it.
As for gaming, never done too much of it, Iwas never smart enough to get past level one or into the front door of the castle. Always getting those messages onscreen: "Are you kidding me?!" Hate when that happens.
As my brother used to say, "whatever floats your boat". Followed by: "And if you don't like it, go jump in the lake". Lots of water references here for some reason. Well, I'm off to bed. Have a nice day, and all I shall say, is game away (I'm a poet, and don't even know-it. My feet are size 12, they're Longfellows)

The way things are going, I wouldn't be surprised if a hundred years from now people would be amazed with rocks. Consumerism is like oxygen these days. Pretty soon everyone will be saturated by it.
