Self-improvement implies an inherent dissatisfaction with oneself

I would view it more as an admission that your current habits and behaviors do not correlate 100% with desired outcomes.

The idea of self-improvement is highly subjective and unique to the individual. You get to decide what is important to you and what you are willing to sacrifice. If you don't think you need it, that's great!

There is a lot bullshit in self help, but reflecting on your behaviors and their outcomes is a core aspect of the most clinically tested mental health exercises.

I honestly can't remember the name of it... I remember an old NES or SNES game where you would take crew members on away missions. I think that part of the game was a platformer.

More recently I had fun with the VR bridge crew game. I think I prefer the old school game I played as a kid.

It mentions regulated markets, is that what you mean?

I'm confused, who is talking about unregulated markets?

Ya, in that context, I would agree.

In the context of someone asking, "Is a mask required to attend?" I think it would make sense. We don't do masking requirements anymore.

Are you sure they don't just mean that we are no longer acting like there is a pandemic?

Our social attitudes about the pandemic are certainly different than they were in 2020.
