I'm very drunk and I want to know how all you stupid apes find the will to put one foot in front of the orher, day after day after day.
mocking a wife guy for being a wife guy only makes him more powerful
Not to be cringe, but the love I have for my wife and daughter give me a reason to keep going even when my anxiety and depression is at its worst. Without giving too much detail, my daughter had some health scares in the first year of her life, and at times we didn’t know how long we might have with her. Thankfully her prognosis is positive given the extreme outcomes that were on the table, and I feel immensely grateful for that every day.
Not cringe at all. Being a parent is a good reason to live, you have a duty to another person, it can't be all you are of course but it's a big job!
Life is interesting af. Even if this IS the end of the world, it's certainly interesting af to watch the end of the world!
Music, art, games, books, nature... it's amazing what is out there in the universe.
Yeah, same. The world is absolutely fascinating and there's more to learn than you can possibly do in one life and that's always cool
When the next :cool-zone: starts y'all will need a hand. I gotta stick around.
Oh yeah I also gotta fuck before I die
Gaslit myself into thinking I was a sociopath cause the reason I did nice stuff was cause it made me feel good. Got over it by not being so fucking self centered and navel gazing. Oh no, I get a dopamine hit from doing good things, God forbid I get addicted to good deeds. Gotta meet a good personality trait emerging with as much suspicion as possible. Now it's cool, but now it constantly blows my mind when say at work when the hypothetical was brought up who of us would have the best chance on the show Survivor I was picked cause I have really good social skills.
Edit: my ability to give a fuck is pretty low and I've lived a lot of life at this point that makes me pretty well-informed on reading people and asserting myself. I've hopped trains and had someone stocking me who would actually kill me over some dumb shit and smoothed it over, various drug related sketchy crsp what have you. If I didn't learn how to be an appealing and charming dude I would have been fly food in a ditch long ago
Altruism is a human instinct and it blows my mind that we've been poisoned to think it's bad or unnatural.
It gives you really solid street cred too. You get friends or at least the good will or reputation of people who have nothing to lose. That street cred of just being g a really solid guy has literally saved my life and also I just like, have dudes on the streets who are thinking of me and in this modern age keeping one eyes on the ground is always useful, the amount of good sidewalk trash has been nuts. My current cider hustle is because a street dude I known brought me a wine making kit he found when college kids were moving.
Being a nice person is fucking awesome, it doesn't matter where it comes from.
Glad you're still with us, king/queen/regent :meow-hug:
That's how Randroids try to "gotcha" compassion out of people while at the same time claiming that sociopathy is the only natural way to be. Fuck those monsters.
At the end of the day, my values are so dangerous, that there are entire agencies dedicated to fighting them.
I don't think I'm wrong so now it means that my living is an affront. Every small action I take is more work that capitalism has to fight to correct.
Your values are eating fries and screaming tho :bird-screm1:
And every day I eat a fry intended for the dumpster, I subvert the wasteful excess of capitalism.
Every time I nest in a place where I am unwelcome,
Every time I shit on a car,
And every time I ruin a tourist's day...
I'm fighting capitalism.
Every time you produce a pellet for dissecting in public school, you're fighting capitalism.
Uhhh...well...shit
Look man, you gotta CW this shit, i'm not mentally ready for this right now or ever again
Life is fleeting and meaningless but we all deserve comfort, at the very least.
I bear witness to the beauty of the universe while I know there is conscious life to do so. For all we know we're all that ever was.
I also like my life, like my job, like my friends and like my dogs.
Also we must keep going to build a socialist revolution even though it is devastatingly depressing to try in the imperial core - it is our duty
The small glimmer of goodness, kindness and hope that I see in some people. The fact that after everything that's happened, there are still leftist orgs out there.
I gotta get out the door at least twice a day to walk my dog. Might as well get some stuff done during that middle part when I can't fall back asleep.
