What's something you care about deeply that few other people seem to? (could be smth big or small)

Not that much deeply but I care about the RAM usage of the programs I usually use! Before upgrading my laptop, it had only 4 GB of RAM. This RAM limit caused me a lot of pain when doing my graduate project. About a year ago I decided to use command line apps as much as possible so that the RAM usage of my laptop decreases. Even though I upgraded my laptop's RAM to 8 GB, I still have the habit of checking the RAM usage of the apps I use! It's a weird obsession.

I like what MistyRiver said, I was thinking along those lines - maybe it's my abandonment issues rearing their head again

Based on what I see everyday, the majority of the population thinks texting and driving is totally fine.
They also think that if they crash into your car they can just take off. Over the years my cars have been hit and dinged like 5 times and every single time the person just took off. So basically people in general are pieces of shit and that really rustles my jimmies.

I care a lot about the way immigrants are treated in this country. It feels like it's the one demographic of people who get openly shit on and are constantly scapegoated because they're not a voting constituent. Yet (IMO) they're often the hardest working people and mostly contribute in ways I don't think native born people do.

When I am in a supermarket I check out which check out lane is served by the nicest cashier. Then I pick that lane, even if the queue is longer.

Using rational/analytical thinking to combat the scientism/physicalism/"skepticism"/rationalism/anti-spiritualism that so many people hold and believe is the natural result of rational/analytical thinking. I believe Iain McGilchrist and Rupert Sheldrake are also passionate about this. It's really rare, though. Most open-minded spiritualists aren't rational/analytical-thinking enough to tackle the problem and probably don't give it much thought anyway.
