What advice do you have for staying sane in these crazy times? Your comments on the “start stop” of the economy and society wearing down on people prompted this question. I definitely feel that weariness and disorientation and was wondering if you had any thoughts on how to relieve those feelings, what kinds of relationships and activities would be good to try since COVID-fied society isn’t really avoidable.

The other day I logged on to a social media site for the first time in close to a decade. I noticed very quickly that many people I grew up with were rabidly posting leftist propaganda. I then looked through over a hundred profiles of people I've known over the years. It was the same. This is particularly startling because I live in a low population region in the western US. Is the time for talk over? Is the end of western civilization near? Should I be fleeing to Poland or something? I do not wish for my kids to experience war.
Q7: 1:47
I recall how Stef mentioned he was scared of a Great Dane as a kid from the last call in. What made him like dogs again and what's his favorite breed/mix?

Stefan Molyneux addresses questions from his audience on epistemology and ethics, focusing on why he trusts people who've done manual labor. He explains that those experiences build a practical outlook through inductive reasoning and a respect for real-world facts. Molyneux draws a line between the "sovereignty of mind" and the "sovereignty of matter," using his own stories to show how prayer or wishing alone gets nowhere without real effort. He stresses turning vague dreams into solid plans, while calling out cultural stories that hype up ambition without any follow-through. Instead, he pushes for a realistic take on personal goals. In the end, Molyneux points out that accepting matter's primacy helps build toughness and forward movement, and he encourages people to chase their aims with steady work.
