Idk what your society or definition of “insanity” is but assuming you’re asking what we believe most commonly leads to one’s mental health entering a negative feedback loop:

Broadly speaking it’s some form of hopeless desperation (yes, the hopeless qualifier matters here) that commonly kicks into high gear after falling into homelessness, at least based on my own observations

Some also get to play on hard mode simply for winning the genetic and/or socio-economic anti-lottery

Lemmy is my niche community

Linear growth < exponential growth

So… Basic math…?

Different jobs are different

Sorry for rambling

Pretty sure it’s actually missing King Kong given the design of those buildings and plane

How did that cat manage to keep its phone’s reflection out of this selfie?

Can’t remember the name but there’s a novel set in Ireland in the not-too-distant future

Synopsis implied it had become a surveillance state but didn’t gave up before confirming due to the literal writing style

I swear every sentence was written in the passive voice (poorly remembered examples):

“It was made known through the clothes he wore they were sent from the department of security”

“As she walked outside the smell made Spring’s arrival clear”

Totally fine normally but do it every single sentence and it becomes a mystery novel where the mystery is what the hell you just read!

… Or idk, Harry Potter 5 is pretty meandering

“My parents didn’t try to get into school loans”

Where are you watching drug dealers openly flaunt their money? Do you mean pharmacists?
