"Just take soma" is what you are telling me right now.

Four things:

1. I am a parent. Ignoring like the world doesn't exist is not an option.

> wouldn't you be happier if you lived in an environment where you were not impacted by all the stuff you dislike?

2. That would not be possible.

3. If you have the capability to do something, some believe you have an obligation to. Actively working to not make a shit world requires a deep awareness and understanding that leads to consistent action.

4. Trying to isolate yourself like in the face of so much suffering, including those around you, seems like the most selfish thing I can imagine. Could never be me.

> Things are not that bad.

For YOU maybe, for fucks sake.
