I'm just waiting to die at this point. Fuck this life. Fuck this world. I'd kill myself if I wasn't such a pussy. I keep living with the vague hope that things might get better, but deep down I already know it won't.
πPlease don't say that.
Thank you for giving a shit about me. β€οΈ
Hugs for you, buddy. <3 the world's better with you in it.
I see that you've posted a few times in the last hour or so; hope this means you're feeling a little better about things.
I'm fine, just needed to vent my deep down feelings. Thank you.
Nothing like shrews and coffee to get your mind off things ππ
Same page club, except the vague hope.
Honestly the vague hope was keeping me at my lowest until I learned to understand and completely accept that our world is ending by our own hands, detach from being on the human team, and just gawk at the freak show of the exploitative macro-cancer monkeys that we are with gallows fascination.
This is the same thing comedian George Carlin bragged about doing to find peace in his later years, BTW.
When you remove trying to root for us to be not horrible, we are a spectacular and peculiar thing to behold, a remarkable evolutionary oddity, like Pandas. Like how are we the apex predator?! It's nuts and hilarious.
Absurdism?
If you ever feel very down, make sure to channel your hatred of the world back out at the world, rather than inwards at yourself. Maybe you'll help make it a bit better <3
Start skateboarding πΉ, it helps.
I'd say you have issues that have little to do with the news. Talk to a counselor.
If you kill yourself, the number of socialists will decrease. Don't you want capitalism fall?
Have to focus on what's around you that you have control over.
Shitposting?
Yes! Among other things.
Anger with no target turns inward. You sure your anger is directed at the right target?
