I've started looking into whether it's possible to become a monk. I have no interest in any type of religion. I just want to be left alone in a quiet space for a long time.

@fesshole I mean technically you could get that working for city sewerage maintenance. But that might not be what you're looking for 😂

@joannejacobs @fesshole Isn't lighthouse keeper the traditional job for being left alone?

@joannejacobs @mansr @fesshole @patterfloof to be fair, we've had automated lighthouses since before some places had sewage systems...

@chloeraccoon @joannejacobs @mansr @fesshole @patterfloof To be "fair"...
It's a much simpler task and so needs way less engineering to automate.
It's a much smaller system that can be largely replaced instead of hacked on to add shit that wasn't anticipated.
There are clearly very practical reasons why lighthouses are largely maintenance free and sewer systems are not. This isn't something some cabal of assholes decided just to see poor people wallow in shit or whatever.

@crazyeddie @chloeraccoon @joannejacobs @mansr @fesshole you can't automate away the Fatberg ...
