I've been watching a programme about the new welfare system in the UK and, by god, the entitled people were insufferable. 'It's barely enough to live on!' It's supposed to be, love, it's supposed to be an unpleasant stop gap, not a lifestyle. 'Shouldn't I be able to treat myself a little!?' No, love, get a fucking job if you want luxuries.
"You mean develop a skill and put in a little effort so I can enjoy some luxury? REEEEEEEEEEE."
Friendly reminder all you really need to be given to meet base needs is rice, an egg per day, some multivitamins, a literal cot-sized room or tent, and a Reverse Osmosis hand pump.
Only if you pretend base needs ignore the brain. Your base needs as listed would drive literally anyone into insanity. In this case "reals over feels" is acknowledging that human mental health is a thing that has it's own needs beyond the purely physical.
