    much can be done with robots and “ai” but fuck if I’m going die with only “ai” by my side

    I hate to break it to you, but you better start saving if you want a good human next to you when you die. I did palliative care for developmentally delayed adults, $12/hr in 2018. Fifty cents more than minimum wage. I was watching people die, and I couldn’t even take a vacation.

    I went from being a caring person, to wishing people would die faster, to wishing I could die myself because that was the only form of a ‘break’ I could think of getting. Drove into traffic, got t-boned by an SUV going 55mph, and I think the month in the hospital is still the most relaxed I’ve ever been.

      Won’t be necessary, my family tradition is drinking our self to death and if that don’t work we die of totally preventable types of cancer 🙃 but yea I’m saving and investing as much as I can, around 20%, not for me but for my fiancée so she can keep up the living.
