Being worn down by life is a sign of privilege, actually. No I will not explain
Ok, then I won't explain the frankly obvious reason I'm feeding your paralyzed-yet-still-awake body into a wood chipper
'Delicious abdication of responsibility' Finger-lickin' shift of priorities
This is just about the most nakedly hateful and sociopathic "let them eat cake" screed I've ever read.
Even if we're all pretending, a society where everyone feels the need to claim to be depressed, tired, and broken is not healthy.
I feel the same. I'd fall asleep at my desk if I wasn't always pissed.
Let fury have the hour, cause anger can be power. Know that you can use it
We have an influx of new members. It's important to dunk on lib takes so that other people can read our perspectives.
Yeah I'm not tired because I'm 40 years old with two small kids and a full-time job during a pandemic. Also when my dad was 10 years younger than me he made double what I do for a bullshit job in advertising.
It's the same even in "prestige " jobs. Like my dad, I'm an academic, and the differences in salaries and expectations (in teaching/ training/publishing) between now and 30 years ago is so fucking insane and depressing.
I wouldn't be tired all of the time if I had a fake job like writing hot takes for Nylon.
We are tired because we are taking every drug to get our minds out of this stupid world we have inherited that keeps getting worse. It’s getting worse because idiots think that staying in the same path is somehow the best solution even though they forget how shitty it was in the 80 or 90s for minorities, people making poverty levels of money or just being working class and being afraid your job will be sent overseas. These people don’t get that we are in decline but we could make it at least suck less for anyone not in the 1%. These idiots think that if we give it all to the 1% then it will come down to them but in reality these people are building fortresses and shit to get away when shit does go down.
kind of a trip that we based the glory of our country and people on how well a family of offensively wealthy royals are doing, eh? -france circa 1792
The drugs are probably a response rather than a cause. I don't do drugs and I'm always tired.
If I ever write something that sounds like this, I want someone to put a bullet in my brain. "flirtation with Thanatos", fuck off alien.
wish I could flirt with Thanatos but he never seems interested in my nectar bottles
Why are [...] always tired?
Gee, I dunno. Maybe Depression due to HELL WORLD!?
why are hell worlds always so tired?
really feel like hellworld has just been phoning it in lately, you know? rehashing old scripts, doing minimal effort variations like a greatest-hits album.
is hellworld okay? should we stage an intervention for hellworld?
When I want to assess the status of an entire generation of tens of millions of people, the examples I use are usually obscenely wealthy musicians and fellow media dipshits shitting nonsense. I certainly wouldn't interview a single normal person who has to work a real job that's actual work to survive, no instead I'm gonna see what fucking Goop has to say about it.
What, are you not an obsecenely wealthy musician? I thought we all were.
You're right, I'm lying. I'm the lead singer of Trapt and I love to drink cum. Mmmmmmmmm, can't get enough of that cum when I'm the singer for Trapt!!!
I'm not a violent or nasty person but I'd quite like to see the next dipshit columnist writing down their brainfarts about how the extreme stresses of collapsing capitalism is actually just young people whining cut up and fed to the pigs.
