when things get too real for me_irl

For relatable posts that are too real for !me_irl. Meaning jokes/posts about mental health issues and self deprecating humour.
This is a subreddit for memes that hit too close to home or are too real for communities like !me_irl
If you have depression, talk to a therapist, it really does help. You are not alone, and recovery is possible and worth it.
If you find jokes about suicide, depression or self harm upsetting, this sub might not be the right place for you. This is a place for people who use self deprecating humor as a coping mechanism, not for those making fun of mental illness.
With that out of the way, the rules are as follows:
-
Asking for upvotes/downvotes will get you banned. And any other vote related bullshit for that matter.
-
Posts MUST be in some way "too real" or hit to close to home. If it doesn't make you laugh and feel sad at the same time, don't post it here. Posts that do not fit the sub may be removed.
-
Being edgy doesn't make a post good. Post content that you find a bit too relatable, not something making fun of people with depression.
-
Posts should be titled 2meirl4meirl or some variation, but other titles are fine for ~~shitposts~~ self posts.
-
Be supportive. Most people here are going through something, and sometimes all it takes to improve a shitty day is just a little kindness from an Internet stranger.
-
Racism, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, any other form of discrimination and general dickishness will not be tolerated.
-
Mark NSFW content as such. And please don't post NSFL content.
-
Reposts are allowed, but discouraged
-
Don't link to an image if it won't be there permanently. Basically, just don't link to files hosted on 4chan.
-
Again, please don't be an asshole.

It's a crazy time to be alive to be sure as we're watching the existing world order creak and splinter. Western capitalism is buckling under the weight of its own contradictions. Climate chaos, mass extinction, wars of desperation, the crises pile up as the system enters terminal decline. Yet within the rubble, there lies a possibility for a different world as well.
The Global South is rewriting the rules of the game and shaking off western exploitation. Look at China's green tech blitz, vaulting past the West in solar, EVs, and nuclear power. Or Vietnam, massively slashing poverty in the past three decades while building a socialist economy that leaves IMF orthodoxy in the dust. These are blueprints for the rest of the world to follow. The axis of power is tilting away from extraction and plunder and toward socialism. The failures of neoliberalism are discrediting western model even in the west at this point. While reactionary backlash will escalate as the west becomes increasingly desperate, there is a potential of a better world on the horizon, and that gives me hope for the future.
their fumbling to keep the empire going brings me joy. but the longer it goes, the harder it will come crashing down upon our heads.
Indeed, I'm not too thrilled to be living through a second societal collapse in my lifetime.
