Not to kill the vibe or anything. But I'm depressed as shit right now. If in 20 years shit is so much worse than right now, then I'm going to take a long walk off a short cliff.
No! I'd rather be 20 years ago!
Higher quality version
It's the same meme, but younger and fresher.
This poem advocates for assisted suicide in a fun and upbeat way.
I think this all the time. I have trouble being in the moment, but my life right now is possibly the best it'll ever be. So it's important that I take the time to be grateful for how things are right now.
Damn, that's depressing as fuck future me should set higher standards cause present me is a walking disaster
Is the lesson, "Don't take walking for granted." ?
This exact moment? Dude I’m taking a shit.
Oh you too?
Lucky coincidence, 20 years ago, I remember there was this one time I really really wanted to get to the shitter
Fast forward 20 years, and I'm so happy it happened!
Bruh fucking same
Its not a very nice one either so I bet I'm 20 years if I remember this I'll think "god I'm glad I'm not shitting glass rn"
this is one of the most depressing things i've ever read
Well let me help you there, it's not true. I'm happy where I am, and do not wish to go back to my life from 20 years ago. Continue making progress and improving, and you will be content with where you are. It's hard, but it's worth it.
I mean.. you're not wrong... But still made me laugh out loud
Pshh you’ve never seen my pair of baby shoes
I already know I don't wanna be 20 years from now.
I don't even want to be now.
Hey shrub, FWIW I think the world is better with people like you in it. Take care of yourself, please, and I hope life treats you as well as it can. If you ever need someone to talk to or anything, this internet stranger's door is always open.
Thank you.
(I also apologise, it was late night & I didn't realise I was in Lemmy be wholesome)
You are indeed one nice individual, words like that help & make life easier (calmer even?) for others. I wish upon you a good world too, a world that makes it a nice place to be part of, and that you have your part & place in it that makes you happy & content.
I like how many assumptions were made there. But they are all wrong in my case. I'm fucking sick, away from home and basically miserable at the moment. Only good thing is I'm still alive and have all my faculties. 20 years from now all I'll want is a comfortable home, reasonable health, my loved ones and my puppy with me. I'm old enough to know that I'm not into retakes.
Thanks now I'm depressed
I sure as fuck hope not. My body is already broken and I'm quite miserable where I am. I understand my body will only get worse but if nothing else is going to get better this is the opposite of wholesome.
Totally with you on this one.
This is terrible. I wouldn't want to go back 20 years at all. Every year I'm grateful that it has been better than the last. Life is on the up and up. I'm not wishing to go back, I'm looking forward to next year.
Yeah no. That ain't wholesome.
This is just telling the peasent to enjoy the day they weren't flogged
This might be true now, but I definitely wouldn't want to be where I was when I was 20 again. My life back then sucked ass.
One can appreciate the sentiment of the quote to value every minute while you have it, but under a more optimistic lens, the quote is not always true. I was 10x unhealthier 20 years ago than today, and I would give anything to never be there again. We all walk a different path.
I was physically much more healthy but my life-stress levels were much higher. So glad I'm past that. Now if we can all just do our bit to stop the world sliding into fascism, and of course climate destruction, maybe we'll be able to look back in 20 years.
I hope I'm going to be you in the future. I'm in my late 20s and straight up not having a good time, health-wise.
If I had read this a year ago it would've been completely false
Im extremely depressed and dysphoric, if this is the peak of my life then ill probably be dead in 20 years
I have never felt this way. Part of it's luck, but even hard stuff I feel like has made me a better person, and happier for it.
Weird way of saying every day of existence will get worse.
Feelz bad for Rich Webster whose life is on a downward spiral.
Well fucking thanks. Fat chance of me enjoying this moment now. Instead I just feel bad for all the moments missed and mortality in general.
I don't know about two and three...
I'm hoping that I will both be around in 20 years and able to eat solid food by then.
Reported for not being wholesome. This is just mean and cruel.
I'll have the time of my life now so i can rub it in the face of future me!
Nah, if you peak too early you gotta live with the downfall. I'm planning on being the most healthy in my 50s during the second global climate wars.
Not physically, no. The best time to start getting into shape was yesterday. The second best time is today.
I exercise for the sole purpose of making getting old suck less.
As an old person, a lot of my aches and pains now come from fitness-activity injuries in my youth. So may I suggest MODERATION. Watch the wear and tear on your tendons and cartilage!
For sure. People need to know there's a difference between getting into shape, and getting ripped.
When I started my most recent exercise stint, I took my workout program and started with 4 sets of 25 reps at 2.5lb. Once I could do the last set without any sort of struggle, I upped it by 2.5lb.
This has many benefits, such as strengthening supporting muscles, letting your tendons and ligaments slowly get used to moving the weight, and cements in proper form so you don't end up doing cheater reps at higher weight.
It's more difficult than many might expect. For instance, my 10rm on bicep curls is 45lb, but my 25rm is 15lb.
Some of us can only dream of that, because we have unrelated health issues that prevent us from exercising, and a shitton of other stuff. All we can do is hope that this isn't the healthiest well ever be, because that thought is fucking depressing.
On a single daily water rat and corpse starch wafers? No gains
I'm thinking about killing myself constantly. I can't imagine I'll ever long for this.
Maybe if I'm dead? But then I won't be longing for anything...
Mate pls get help in any way you can? Please?
It's sometimes hard to find something worth enjoying, I hope this happens way sooner than you think.
Lol, I've had a really bad cold (or something) for a week so, no. I feel like I'm fucking dying.
2 out of 3 ain't bad.
I'm assuming they didn't expect the reader to be at work lol
Love this
I mean 20 years from now I would put it as 50 years earlier if I had my way.
