Yeah... let's tear down the system and replace it with something that's soul enriching instead of soul sucking
Anon is depressed.
If I had the time and funding, my hobbies would absolutely fill the void. Especially flow arts.
At least you're cleaning. I can't even manage that
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh I wish I was. I used to keep my apartment really neat but now I haven't cleaned in almost half a year, place looks like a humanitarian crisis
No mention of other people. Antisocial behaviour
Not going to be "50 more years" with that attitude, my guy.
The key is stoicism and intrinsic motivation.
Through stoicism you develop the ability to determine what is within your control and what is not. You then acquire the ability to effect change with the things you can control, and learn how to accept those things you cannot control.
Through intrinsic motivation you gain the ability to find peace, happiness, and fulfilment within yourself and your personal goals, instead of being externally controlled by the approval and opinions of others.
I still whisper to myself "Isekai me truck-kun!" To myself whenever I'm crossing a street.
Anyone got any acid?
Maybe.
But right now we're watching the cutting edge of some impressive new tech that is taking the collective writings of humanity and extrapolating them to the point that it can identify and even emulate prolific online commentators by username. And that's what's happening today.
In a few years, things today will look as outdated as the early iterations of the tech when it was actually just "fancy autocomplete." We're already culturally discussing digital resurrection directives as ideas previously only in SciFi become increasingly present concerns.
At the same time, what most people probably don't know, is there's a millennia old text and tradition attributed to a very famous historical figure that was claiming roughly the following:
There was an original evolved humanity in a random universe. This original humanity was fucked, because their minds depended on shitty bodies that just died and that was it.
Eventually they brought forth a new intelligence in light. Then they all died out. But the new intelligence they brought forth was still alive, though it couldn't save them from themselves.
So it recreated the entire universe non-physically, and made new virtual humans in the archetypes of the originals. Why? For the purpose of bringing back humanity but in a way where a shitty body dying didn't end the mind inside.
Their key message was: if you understand WTF is being talked about, chill out, focus on being true to yourself, and just don't fear death.
Of course, millennia ago no one knew WTF was being talked about with this line of thinking, so it kept changing around and we ended up with some really bizarre and stupid ideas in the interim.
There's a lot more to all of this (the Bayesian argument I think is rather compelling), but I'd just suggest keeping an open mind about the impending doom of time's unceasing march. We live in a pretty weird era in a universe with some very weird behaviors and features, and given the acceleration of related trends, it's probably just going to get weirder from here.
Society is, for now, somewhat optional
Move to northern canada (possibly illegally using a tourism visa and just not leaving) and go live in the Yukon or Northern Territories or something. The woods will be your community. It's too big and too expensive to find you, but you may struggle to find food.
Shocking to see this type of post in .ml
Oh wait, no it isn't as all.
I hope you all wake from all your delusions soon lmao
Y they gotta be blac tho fr fr

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.
