Well shit, that could be better! Hopefully you can find the right person to help figure the things out.

Thanks. I recently found a great therapist. British, and we use English. Because he’s not Finnish, he’s not blinded by the culture and I can actually get someone to understand the issues I have.

Well, since the US had a lot of police abuse things, you now have pretty strict laws on procedure, warrants issued by a judge, Miranda rights, etc. I’m not saying those always get followed, but if they’re caught not following, people can sue for a lot. Here I the warrant just needs to be a oral permission from a high ranking police, but when I actually got the warrant in paper, it was backdated 2 months after the search. And I can’t find anyone who’d find a problem with that.

At least the US has the sort of defense lawyer that Better Call Saul parodies a bit.

Essentially Finnish people trust too much in their systems — and not without reason — but that trust for a long time has made it so that no-one sees if they work. And unchecked power does what unchecked powers does, no matter the nation.

That said, try some comedy. Standup, movies, records, whatever. Laughter is the best medicine.

Dude I think I’ve watched all the comedy. And drama. And fantasy. And scifi. Several thousands of hours, I’d say. ST: TNG, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise. Tng at least 3x Voyager 2x. House MD like 5x. Fry and Laurie. All QI. All WILTY. All Taskmaster. All big fat quizes. All specials from a lot of standups. Family guy, American Dad, Taika Waititis shows; What We Do in the Shadows, Our Flag Means Death.

Laughter might be the best medicine, but things which make me laugh nowadays are pretty rare.
