@paninid I've always liked the following story:
teacher - "what do you want to be when you're older"
Kid - "happy"
Teacher - "you didn't understand the question*
Kid - "or maybe you didn't understand the concept "

@paninid Brainwashing has to start young, else you may decide to not be a cog in a machine, that runs a rat race Monday through Friday.

[bribear@blahaj.zone]

@paninid@mastodon.world I still don't know and I'm 45

[shadows@beige.party]

@Rastal @paninid my thoughts on it are alternating between this and that a number of adults may only be able to see the way out of the current system for an individual as being particularly successful at operating within that system by means of goals/obsession.

[reinald@nrw.social]

@paninid I feel, that comes from a time, where there was some obvious positive reputation connected to a job. And you kept it for life. Most of that is gone - the reputation as well as the long perspektive.

@benroyce @paninid I want to be a cat...

@paninid A farmer's son living near me in the 1960s answered, 'a millionaire'. Last I heard, he was.

@benroyce @paninid I know what to do with my life right now, and that is being a climate and human rights activist. But it’s not what I would like to be, because I would like there to be no need for climate and human rights activists.

@paninid

Republicans ask specifically because they wanna see if the kids have ambition so they can call them in 4 or 5 years for a date.

[dmian@mastodon.social]

@paninid As a kid, I used to say I wanted to be an architect. I’m not an architect.

[dmian@mastodon.social]

@Reinald @paninid Yes, you used to have a decent life from your job alone, and provide for the whole family, and even own a house. But that was only the post-war era. Then oligarchs decided that they needed more money, and the working class would be the ones providing it. And here we are. ‍️

[publicwondering@mastodon.me.uk]

@shadows @Rastal @paninid yeah I don't think adults are actually thinking "better brainwash these kids and crush their dreams" more that they as adults assume that they understand the world better and are imparting wisdom.

[publicwondering@mastodon.me.uk]

@dmian @paninid but did it keep the adults off your back?

[altlazybear@mas.to]

@paninid I got kicked by a horse once and they're surprisingly strong.

[bonehousewasps@beige.party]

@paninid At 6, my eldest wanted to be a "ninja princess".

[brother_doc@mastodon.social]

@paninid A horse you say. Encourage her.

[dmian@mastodon.social]

@publicwondering @paninid Yes, it mostly did.

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@EvelineSulman @paninid

that's crazy

you want to sit around and be pampered without a care in the world? why would you...

so on second thought i want to be a cat too
