A variation of Carl Reiner's joke: How do you make God laugh?

Tell her your plan.

2,000 hours of RimWorld later …

Damn, I need to go plant some trees now.

All my therapists keep saying getting weird about obsessing over all my failures isn't healthy, though...

The guru specified that the weird thing gives you pleasure. It is pleasurable to obsess over your failures?

Steeve,

Don’t kink shame

Fosheze,

I keep doing it so clearly it must be.

Unfortunately, obsessing over things often doesn’t have to do with pleasure.

Zorque,

As far as I know, cause nothing else is bringing me any kind of happiness. So It must be, right?

samus12345,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

Not necessarily. A lot of obsessive behaviors aren’t pleasurable, actually.

Zorque,

psst, its a joke, kind of like the comic

Sotuanduso,

Nah, I think the comic’s pretty legit.

cynar,

The comic is a joke wrapped around a fundamentally good point. Your joke is poorly wrapped around a bad point.

You had me at "get weird."

Plus, when you’re done painting them, you can move them around a table with aquarium plants and make “BOOM” and “WAAAGH” noises while occasionally rolling dice and arguing about rules

It really is the perfect hobby

peopleproblems,

I may have just bought a starter set because I keep making up stories with the ones I’ve painted with my son.

I regret nothing

Or a moneyless society. Each their own

NeuronautML, to comicstrips in Equation by Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal

Seems to me this is more like the equation that maximizes happiness for people who don’t have the mentioned things.

Plenty of people have food, money and sex, rightfully obtained from their perception, yet are still very unhappy, even suicidal. This is what you think you need. It’s not even necessarily what you need.

It is not an equation

…encompass?

The real fantasy is clearly a VR suit with a food tube and a lack of perception that you’re in the VR suit with a food tube.

Oh I definitely need some strife. It can just be me vs situation like my current position trying to run an efficient dispensary, but I need the challenge way more than the perception of earning or owning. I gotta be solving problems and completing tasks. I can’t live idly.

lol, some of this guy’s comics are just ridiculously funny.

That’s the short form equation that ignores environmental pressure, the long form has a separate term that accounts for shelter and sentience as a factor between 0 and 1, as well as a quotient for empathy with a numerator of associate happiness.
