It never ends and it doesn't get better with age. Aging sucks and the endless drudgery of the useless activities like work just wears on you, and when that fat, bloated, bald creep looks back at you in the mirror and you wonder what the fuck is going on, you wonder what a .45 feels like at the back of your throat.

I wake up every morning with a knot in my stomach and I need to yell for about ten minutes about how sick and fucking tired I am of all this endless useless crap.

Friend, adulting can suck for sure and you're not alone in thinking so, but if you're experiencing suicidal ideation you might need to talk to someone professional. I hope things end up okay. Let me know if I can help.

Okay, I’ll bite: what SMS is this screenshot being posted to where “freaking” and “burn” are deemed necessary to “censor”? Y’know, so I can avoid even accidentally going on it.

as others have said, it's a trick for engagement.

Compare your life to that of a caveman: constantly watching out for predators, fire risks, intrusive insects, maintaining an insufficient shelter, tanning and hiding your clothing out of necessity, sleeping fretfully, and of course spending a good portion of your day scrounging for food whilst keeping the kids alive.

Our ADHD brains were in overdrive much of our history to cope with the dangers and stress of living.

Nowadays we have systematic soceital dangers to focus on, but we forget that our minds are far less distracted by real threats, and so we seek arbitrary topics to hyperfixate upon

Just breathe, write lists, you got this.

Whataboutism

Dunno, the post seems to be more of a critique of life in general, rather than specifically of life in our modern times. I think my comparison can apply if the former is true

Why is Pepe AI

Well, stability is doing the same thing every day, so...

So it's like space travel. Achieve a steady burn without exploding.

Why does Pepe have a face on the side of his head?

In the universe of Chaos, stability doesnt exist. Its an illusion

FWIW, I'm signing a lease today on a place just for me and my endlessly-loving ESA —after several months of consecutive homelessness. ("van life", my ass) Even though it costs >50% of my current monthly pay (from whatever gig work I can piece together), it's not living in my car and it's hopefully a step toward stability...

Unless, of course, the world continues being, well, ahem... sweeps arm at horizon 😅🤢🫡🤷🏼‍♂️

Please put a censor on the word ad*lt! I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masterbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw the uncensored a-word. Now there is a whole train of men masterbating together at this one word. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just censored ad*lt.
