Because pretending to care seems so fake. About to just be that guy who rants about the stupidity of it all, evoking David graeber or some shit, because it seems to be all people ask me about at bars or meet-ups. Do I have to like re-program myself to care
What’s the solution comrades
My usual reply to "what do you do" is say my job, but then quickly talk about the stuff I actually like. The stuff that make being alive cool and fun. We all work a job, most of them a fuckin' bullshit, so just pivot to talking about the stuff that you actually like rather than dwelling in the space. Get to the joys of living rather than talking about how you "earn" your living.
