Hello! The older I became the more I realized that the characters depicted in your works are painfully "normal" and what pushes them (and the narratives) are desires to break that banal normalcy. Do you think most people, especially in contemporary society, feel trapped or are wholly unaware of their meaninglessness and what causes it?

Can you explain how the us economy is Not just rich people playing slots?

Hi there, 27 year old male here, USA. I'm a year out of a 7 year relationship in which I was gas lit, emotionally and sometimes physically abused and manipulated by my ex-boyfirend. I grew up poor and he is extensively wealthy and this made for an extremely unhealthy dynamic in which he used his influence and wealth to coerce, incite fear, or "pay me off." We are both diagnosed with manic depression and adhd. His with a bit more violent tendencies than my own. Im still struggling with separating what was my old life in this dynamic to my new life without and away from him. In this time I have developed severe anxiety towards social and general interaction with the world. I work a low paying job and have no health insurance when just a few years ago I was on a cocktail of medication that at times helped but others proved too much. What steps can I take to regain emotional independence (without meds) and rebuilding/separating my tendencies that once mixed with his?

Will A.I. be mad at us for not fixing the climate?
