“Rich person uses the experiences of the working class to benefit themselves.”
Crazy, when I want to be grounded I just connect myself to the ground pin on my socket.
No… I am not joking sadly https://groundingofficial.com/
LMAO WTF is this?? xD. This website screams “healthcare scam”, the spin to win wheel pop-up is the cherry on top.
I hope no one actually falls for this (please let me have this fantasy thx)
If grounding doesn’t satisfy you, you may wanna try sounding.
Why not both? Take a long double sided pin, one end goes in the ground socket, the other…
That’s hilarious. If you actually bought into this BS, you could just walk outside barefoot, it’s free and literally everyone has access.
best part? that has actual physical benefits and (after getting used to it obviously) it feels fucking lovely to walk through nature.
nothing beats soft moss or a lush lawn, my god
This is in addition. Like if you are at home or a hotel and want to be “grounded”
Also, they have grounding shoes! Which are shows with a few small metal rods going through the bottom, so that when you wear them you are still electrically connected to the ground (which means they assume you don’t wear socks???)
I especially like that they claim electronics burst into flames if they’re not grounded, because the electrons have nowhere to go.
Which, let’s ignore the complete misunderstanding of how electricity works for a moment, but if they truly believe the ground pin does something functionally, how do they ignore all the shit that only has a two prong plug?

I have friends who sleep on a pile of wires…
“It’s no wonder [bad things] rates are on the rise! It must be because of not being barefoot on the grass!”
Yea, not uhhhh all this fucking horseshit.
i’m in a community for minimalist shoes/barefooting and this shit is the bane of our existence, every now and then someone joins and starts talking about grounding and it’s miserable how few people are willing to firmly call it out as batshit nonsense
people seemingly can’t do something unusual without a magical justification, “it feels nice” or “it’s what we’re evolved for” isn’t enough, it’s gotta be all spiritual and pseudoscientific apparently.
Enough ragebait for the day, and I just woke up…
I find the cooking one weird, because the food you cook for yourself is usually the best. I know exactly how cheesy I like my pasta sauce, and how big I like the chunks of chicken sliced in my curry, and what ratio of spices I like in my fajitas. I’m not even that good a cook. I can’t imagine having enough money to want to stop doing that.
You might not be that good a cook by your own admission, but some people can’t cook at all. They just never learned it, and they’ll just burn the food.
The food at the really fancy restaurants is really fucking good. I’m a pretty good cook and baker, and if all my time was taken up with something that pulled in over $1MM a year, you bet your ass I’d sup at such schmancy-ass establishments … for a few years until I can just retire, then start cooking again with all that knowledge under my belt.
I’d probably just give ridiculous tips to the places that I already go to. But eh, to each their own.
Yeah but also these people can just hire a private chef to get both at the same time
I’m not paying for a private chef to dine with me, then have all the fun cooking while I’m taking time to enjoy my life.
Imagine you have a private chef who makes your dishes exactly how you would do it for yourself, in your own home. I like cooking, I’m fairly good at it, but this would be a hard option to beat
I’ve gotten depressed enough (and my kitchen at my new place is very shit) that I don’t cook that much for myself anymore. My wife still keeps it up sometimes and understands that I hate our closed off kitchen. Also, it’s a simple walk down the street to a food truck or a 2 min car ride to get fun instant ramen then I can make a soft boiled egg.
The money is comfortable but I want to cook more again. I miss it.
But how are you supposed to enjoy that food without an obsequious NPC to cut your steak for you? Is it even eating without an envious audience?

I mean, getting rich people to reduce their waste output isn’t the worst thing in the world.
Definitely better than the “wE aLl HaVe ThE sAmE 24 hOuRs” hustle grindset nobody-wants-to-work bullshit.
If she is rich, she ain’t doing
She is likely though just a normie cosplaying being in the club
The we all have the same 24 hours thing is so true! From a different angle though
Some of us need to take care of children, or perhaps elders. Cook food. Commute to work and back while the boss has home office privileges because he “works so hard”.
We all have the same 24 hours, but some of us have obligations we can’t offload, or aren’t rich enough to offload.
This is on par with the Greek stoics, idle rich fuckers who would deprive themselves of luxuries “for a while” … and then congratulate themselves for that deprivation when they got back to doing their regular idle rich fucker shit.
quietly nudges an old tent and sleeping bags out of sight
Yeah who would want to deprive themselves of luxuries for awhile, and then reminisce about the experience later!?
😐
There’s a difference between that and thinking you’re on to a philosophical secret while being blind to the all the time living conditions of almost every human being.
Oh, I totally agree! My comment was mainly being facetious
Hard to tell sometimes, what with this being The Internet.
Came here for this cover of this song.
Holy shit I did not remember this version! Glorious, thank you!

So they’re unemployed and pretending that they’re just trying to ground themselves.
Either that or she’s an actual rich person and just cosplaying being poor because there’s a lot of rich fucks who like to backpat themselves for their “asceticism”.
Might have just been demoted for incompetency
Wow you live life. How thought provoking. Meanwhile I am enjoying cheap ramen watching chefs eat amazing Spanish cuisine and…
Now I’ve read the second part. Go be in wild nature for a month without digital devices or spent 2 weeks somewhere far out.
I needed to get humble when I was a pre-adult. It changed me, I wanted it to change me. Happy I got the opportunity to do so.
People like this??? I am at loss of words. All the things she describes are not thrilling at all (for me). It seems like some people are a “person” instead of a “human”. IDK how to explain it but it really is like that.

What really matters is actually feeling that superiority when you get on a subway with the peasants.
This would be a lot more meaningful if she did that old trope and straight-up switched places with someone for the day. Eat what they would’ve eaten, travel how and where they would have traveled, stay where they would have stayed, and have the same amount of daily spending money they would normally have had (and if that number’s zero, welp, guess it’s good she’s such a hard worker. I’m sure she she’ll be fine.)
Dear Ms. Mah,
It’s nice to want to understand what it’s like to be a poor person, but you know what would actually help poor people? Sharing a bit of that excess you clearly enjoy. Come back and brag after you do a bit of that, then maybe we could talk.Sincerely,
Economy-flying, home-cooking, subway riders.
