In an equitable world, where we had either some form of UBI or shared the means of production and had leisure time to enjoy, it wouldn’t be a thing. Spend time at home recharging, go outside and meet people. Go online and meet people. Join community events and do things that interest you and relationships will naturally bloom as a result.

Since we live in Hell? I have no idea. You tell me.

Jesus. What good are free communities if they are forced to spend their waking hours trying to earn money to exist?

Time is a commodity. Energy is a commodity. Going places and meeting people costs time and energy they don’t have to spend.
