It's so damn hard though. It feels like everyone with money and power is deeply inspired by every distopian novel or movie in existence
When I'm feeling extra bad I like to recall the videos of Charlie Kirk and Brian Thompson to remind me that sometimes good things do happen.
It helps to remember that you are merely a number on a spreadsheet with free will. Fuck that spreadsheet up.
The first 14 minutes of Brazil are inspiration
And things are likely to get really shitty but we aren't going extinct and the future needs people that give a damn.
I'm not sure if Suffering O'Brien is necessarily the best choice for this meme, because it kinda implies that the moment things start looking up, a simulated lifetime of prison trauma is waiting around the next corner...
He also has a loving wife and two kids. He loves his job (most days) and seems genuinely fulfilled in life.
Yeah that's likely because DS9 is, at its core, an episodic series. If my life mostly reset every Monday, that would make things quite a bit more tolerable.
Sunday nights would certainly become interesting if everyone knew things go back to 1 on Monday.
Everyone can now participate in Sunday Funday: The Purge Edition.
He is the poster child for that exact reason. He keeps getting the shit end of the stick... but he keeps going because he has an awesome support system that makes everything better.
It is an eternal meme. A trope. The Bibble has Job. Star Trek has Miles. Job lost his family and children to gamblor and miles loses them to the pah wraiths and a time hole. The parallelograms are there, it's in revelations people.
because it kinda implies that the moment things start looking up, a simulated lifetime of prison trauma is waiting around the next corner...
That feels about right.
Despite everything that has happened, O'Brien has worked through it with counseling and the support of his family and friends. Something to aspire to if you get your fair share of hardships too.
Is the greatest advancement in Star Trek FTL travel? Teleporters? Replicators? No, it's that their therapists are available, affordable, and effective.
When observed, happiness only comes in particles
Will someone please just let me out of the box
That's the spirit. Party-cles! 🥳
Ha!
That's thc, dude
That's a happy guy
Right up until that Malort makes it past the gums. Or the writers get their hands on him.
How does one get malort outside of the US?
Burn some rubber bands and used ~~adhesive bandages~~ condoms and mix them with some vodka and a little bit of potpourri.
I really need this as a bookmark
I found it just sitting on ground outside. Best day of my life.
Best day OUR lives, comrade.
You can take high quality photos of this for the rest of the fediverse and all, become our new God. I've been looking for a new Nicole/violet
My phone is 12 years old, that picture is the best I can do. Also, godhood is not my bag, I struggle with taking a compliment, being a god would fucking wreck me.
I’ll try to get a better picture of it, though.
No one who consumes malort is happy.
The shortest summary of a Subnautica playthrough
Fuck I gotta finish my vanity playthrough. I'm building fancy bases this time, except I'm playing no man's sky instead right now
Eh, if you can't find reasons to stay alive, there's always spite.
The universe might be out to get me, but at least I'll go down fighting.
Or, as someone much more versed in words put it:
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Eh, if you can’t find reasons to stay alive, there’s always spite.
Spite is great until it isn't. Then it shatters and won't support weight again.
Poland existed out of spite since over a thousand years. Sure, sometimes spite dwindled and they got conquered, but that was just a new reason for more spite!
I don't think I can.
All I see on the horizon is, at best, eco-fascism and at worst the slow crumbling of humanity before nuclear annihilation.
Why continue to have eyes if all I can see is destruction? Why continue to have ears if all I can hear is hatred? Why continue to have a mouth if the only words I can speak is righteous anger and cries of despair?
The glimmers of happiness get fewer and further between as life goes on. I just yearn for the long sleep; it feels like it'd be peaceful, unburdened, my metaphorical shoulders fucking hurt and I'm tired.
Your fulfillment is in your local spacetime. You can just focus on your friends, your local communities. Make their lives better.
don’t worry bro, wet bulb temps will save us
Me (I've been depressed for more than half my time on this earth):
Tap for spoiler
It's a good message tho don't take this as a attack I'm just coping lmao
"...also, sorry about the transporter malfunction. "
HAPPINESS COMES IN WAVES
So do sharks.
...and mermaids
And zombies
Kinda hard under capitalism
But for how long before it's shit again?
99.99+% of the time with depression
It’s been a shitshow from over a decade
Thx Miles.
You’ll get Joulian just yet.
This too shall pass
as far as BeeGees covers goes this one is a bit unorthodox but I can get behind it
Proof of the indomitable human spirit.
