Instead of paragraphs, I'm just gonna make a list of shit that I used to enjoy, but can't now:

  • professional sports
  • my country and its fucking holidays
  • literally any film except like ok foreign kinda leftist pieces like Parasite
  • most video games (if they're not full of ideology like COD, they're full of grind mechanics)
  • my career (I just want to teach and go home, advancement seems pointless)
  • most white people I know now, because their views are terrible
  • traditionally "hot" people (see above), I'm not saying that white people aren't attractive, but generic middle class ones certainly aren't
  • a homestead, I used to have a house and care about furniture and aesthetics and shit, now I want the least amount of expence and maintenance
  • meeting new people, if you're not at least a radlib, I don't have time for you
  • hanging out with lib workmates
  • FB & IG type social media
  • porn, I can't unsee a worker getting the value of their labour appropriated

Yes, Yugopnik just made a video about this recently

Edit: I somehow forgot that "enjoying things" is a regular struggle session here. Listen, no one is being attacked or judged. I assumed a lot of you can't enjoy 1-2 normal things now that you used to. I'm sorry I phrased it in a way to make it seem like games and films are bad.

    from this i'm guessing you were a lib til bernie or something

    a lot of this shit is going to make you burn out sooner or later, and some of it is actively detrimental to any attempt to organize
