The best my depression has ever got is just when I just accepted the rest of my life was going to be like this

[-] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 56 points 2 weeks ago

Don't talk like that.

Things are going to get much worse.

[-] DrDickHandler@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

This is the sad reality.

[-] turtlesareneat@discuss.online 30 points 2 weeks ago

My life is worse in a lot of ways but I got stronger and soberer and am fighting back more now, so it's actually better. 2017-2021 I just sort of rolled over and let life pound away at me.

[-] don@lemm.ee 21 points 2 weeks ago

Big fucking oof right there

[-] throwawayacc0430@sh.itjust.works 18 points 2 weeks ago

I hate life, but there are some great new TV shows that eases the suffering.

  • The Magicians
  • For All Mankind (Its more exciting than it seems, its not just about the science, there's also a lot of politics in it)
  • The Expanse
  • Dark
  • 3 Body Problem
  • Kingdom (Korean Netflix Original)
  • Wheel of Time (If you are a book reader, you're probably gonna hate it, but its great for a TV first time watcher)
  • Squid Game (This is popular, so you probably have already watched it, but if you haven't, what are you waiting for?)
  • The Good Place

There is also a lot that were much older than 2019, but I never even discovered until like recently, I don't really remember them all.

[-] sheogorath@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

For All Mankind first two season are peak.

[-] LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

For me it's the even numbered ones that seem like the best of the show. Glad other people are finally watching it!

[-] I_Has_A_Hat@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Really? I fell out during season 2. I realized at some point I was not watching sci-fi, but rather a lame melodrama of interpersonal emotional problems from all the characters.

Star Trek: Brave New World

*Strange New Worlds

[-] kameecoding@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Goddamn, I even google it just to make sure since it sounded strange when I wrote it, and google just sugggested it as a valid auto complete

[-] stelelor@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

Google knows the real world is a dystopia.

[-] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Google is actively making it so.

[-] throwawayacc0430@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Succession

No offense, but I don't know how you even get through that shit. It's soooo boring. I tried like 3 times, just nope. I honestly don't know how it got ranked so high in terms of TV popularity. Like bruh, its literally just bussiness meeting, parties, meetings, scheming, curse words for the lolz, more meetings.

spoilerRich boy can't coup against his father because daddy got the president to shut down the airspace??? 🤣

Okay that's absolutely ridiculous, but its interesting, but probably the most intetesting thing in like, what, 8 episodes? Then its just a few more episodes of nothing.

Then rich boy tries to buy drugs but crashes car with someone else.

Like, out of and entire season 1, only the "coup" scene is remotely interesting, then it's a nothing burger.

Maybe it's just my contempt for rich people. 🤷‍♂️

[-] kameecoding@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Probably depends on what kind of viewer you are, Succession is entirely character driven and what's happening matters less than how the characters react to it, how they behave with each other.

It's probably pompous to say it's a more intellectual experience, but I believe it is, much like the hated Fly episode of Breaking Bad or the first season of Breaking Bad where "nothing happens"

[-] urandom@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, I didn’t like the first two seasons of wheel of time. Too many changes and the execution was sub par. The third one is awesome though.

[-] The_Decryptor@aussie.zone 13 points 2 weeks ago

Andor's pretty good

[-] Irelephant@lemm.ee 10 points 2 weeks ago
[-] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 1 points 2 weeks ago

Amphibia and Owl House are both fantastic

[-] LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 2 weeks ago

The world was much better circa 2018, but my life was dog shit back then.

[-] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, going from £8k to £25k makes things a lot easier. I can just go out and buy something stupid like a new bike or a kayak and don't really need to check my bank account first.

[-] LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 weeks ago

Living on £25k in modern Britain? And you can buy a kayak or bike?

Pray tell how? I'm on £46k and can just about afford food 😭

[-] PieMePlenty@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Out of the city, no kids, family home, lower standards, minimalist lifestyle. Pick one, or two, or all. The more of these you pick, the less you need.

[-] LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I am in a city but not London or any of the big ones. Rent in the suburbs doesn't seem much more or less expensive, especially because smaller units just don't exist in the countryside, similar to how there's not actually much rent difference between comparable places in Croydon and Westminster.

I Def don't have kids or a family, I wouldn't say I live minimalist, but Def not to a very high standard.

I'd say the number 1 thing is the fact you have housing covered from what I understand. Considering a fairly small 1-bed flat for rent at around £1100pcm, that's £13200 per year.

A salary of £46,500 is about £37k take home, minus the £13k for rent you end up with only £23,800, so it's no wonder you feel comfortable on £26k, that's decently more than what I get at close to double the actual salary, especially if you also don't pay bills.

[-] Nalivai@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

I bet it's south vs north thing

[-] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 weeks ago

I live on the south coast. There is more to the south than London.

[-] jsomae@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 weeks ago

What were people sad about

[-] niktemadur@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

At least non-voters in the United States can bask in the essence of their our purity, intoxicated by the aroma of their own flatulences, just as long as they can avert their gaze from their own blood-stained hands. Mentally mediocre creatures that they are.
