Like Once I Was Discussing Religion With A Friend (like In A Nice And Interesting Way, Not Accusatory),

Like once I was discussing religion with a friend (like in a nice and interesting way, not accusatory), and they asked me wether there would be people in my utopia that believed in religions. They said theirs probably would, similar to how they'd allow differing political beliefs too. My answer was that everyone would most likely be atheists by default, as religion wouldn't really be a variable I'd think about when making a utopia.

Political views, however, are different in my opinion. Personally I consider differing political views (and healthy interaction between them) a necessity for society to improve, making them necessary for reaching said utopia. I personally dont believe religions to also be essential for that.

This being the internet, I probably should clarify that I dont mind people believing in stuff either, and religion wouldnt necessarily make my utopia worse either.

There's something about atheism that I've repeatedly tried and failed to put into words on several posts on this blog but I think I finally got it.

Atheists are the only religious minority who, even (or sometimes even *especially*) in ostensibly progressive spaces are not allowed to ever act like they're sure of their beliefs.

Move to the Ivory Coast, start a cocoa farmers' union, help them fight for better workers' rights and better pay. This raises the price of your chocolate cereals, making them harder to get.

For an increased effect, repeat in Ghana.

Hey does anyone have suggestions on how do I make myself stop eating my own weight's worth of chocolate cereal every single day. Entertaining both good and bad ideas. Not having it in the house is not an option. Rendering the cereal inedible or unpalatable in any way is not an option.

I was once at one of the busier stops of the 510 bus line (one of the busier lines in Helsinki) and on the stop opposite to me was I think 15 or so people, and iirc only 2 or 3 people were actually under the actual stop (it was like a double sized one)

Peak Finnish behaviour is waiting for a bus and the three people closest to me all standing 2 metres away.

Mind you I was standing basically in the middle of the area. And by a quick calculation we were ~ 17 people.

I fucking do that xdd. A few tips to climbing trees in public spaces:

1. uhh you can do it at night. This of course depends on where you live, if you can go out at night safely, but where I live night is the most peaceful time to go out, and no one is awake to judge.

2. if you dont give enough of a shit you can do it during daytime as well. You'd be surprised at how many people just flat out dont notice you being in a tree.

3. you can pick up bouldering / climbing as a hobby. Goes without saying that this costs money, but learning to climb as a hobby really opens up so many different trees you didnt even think to climb before. Its also a really fun way to exercise, just grabbing those colourful blocks and getting higher. Also makes you less likely to fall off a tree and more capable of taking falls, so overall just safer.

i keep forgetting that most adults simply grow too tall to play on the playground and it no longer fits them. that + the contempt for play so many societies have makes having fun exercise difficult.

but anyway people were commenting about how many new outside free gyms for adults are going up like ‘why can’t they just build adult sized playgrounds why even outside do we have to do the gym’ and it’s a fair point. they’ve got hanging bars and no jungle gym. climbing the stairs to a high slide is a workout with the slide reward. you could argue that children who are too small would attempt to use it and hurt themselves but there are already different sized playgrounds for children based on their age/growth.

the free outside gyms give you the same boring motions over and over and no room for imaginative play. it is possible (ofc) to find fun exercise but most examples (trampoline park, ninja warrior, rock climbing) are costly. they love to beat playing out of their people and then cry that no one is exercising.

To me, one of the core finland experiences is walking a long ass distance in the dead of night in freezing temperatures, on a quest to find the nearest bus stop that actually runs this late.

Just did that (still like 40 minutes away from home, but in the relatively warm bus now (bus also an integral part of the experience)) and I haven't felt more finnish in a while.
