I, like most of us on Lemmy, live a better life than almost the entirety of the rest of human history.
Life is full of wonders and joy and there’s so much more to enjoy!
Gratitude is essential to happiness, studies show and also just duh.
And there really is good reason for it - e.g. all the literal wars fought in the past so that we could have such wonders as we do.
Happiness isn’t entirely just a choice, but it is partially one. 💞
Oh, and also chocolate, definitely chocolate.

I’m sorry, I’m sorry, the world and by extension you have been so kind to me and I turned out to be just this worthless waste of oxygen, my existence a net negative of epic proportions and yet I’m too cowardly to at least end this miserable experiment.

Life is full of putting on a face and smiling and playing a well-adjusted individual and I’m so tired.
Welcome to depression-ville, population way too fucking many.
This is how I like to think about it. There’s so many cool things I haven’t gotten to experience, both natural and man-made. Giving up would mean I never get to see them and appreciate them.
Pure stubborness and a fear of death.
Best motivation.
My continued existence pisses off fascists.
I’m vegan, non-binary (with dyed hair), car-free, a member of a linguistic minority, poor, and many other things that make conservatives think the world would be better off without me. I strive to survive mostly to spite these fuckers.
If it helps, I’d quite likely be your friend if we knew eachother.
You’re beautiful! You have every right to be here! Show those fascists indifference and live your life to the fullest!
Basically nothing. But like I’m gonna die eventually, why try to rush to the finish line?
But what is the point of living a slow life, if it means you’ll die and it’ll all amount to nothing anyways?
There is no point to life. It’s not an fps adventure game, it’s a sandbox.
Some servers have FPS PvP, but most seek to go back to sandbox mode.
What’s the point of life at all? Its been slow the first 25 years, the rest being slow doesn’t bother me much anymore. I’m tired, but I’m too lazy to go out quick.
Careful, you’ll wake up one day with an onion on your belt excited about the early bird special at IHOP. It only gets faster, at least up to 40. I suspect it only continues to get faster until we’re just waking up for meals and napping and doing puzzles the rest of the day, which honestly still sounds pretty nice.

Why does it need to “amount” to something? Do you know anything about most of the people who have lived? Do you expect that of everyone around you? Enjoy yourself, enjoy being alive and embodied while you are, maybe you accomplish something for someone else, maybe you don’t, no big deal. Just being here is an incredible thing to have.

My wife. I love spending time with her. She’s my whole world.
Adenosine triphosphate
Legs.
Curious what I might see next.
Coffee and cigarettes 😁
Scotch and chocolate.
Business idea: scotcholate
I remember little chocolate bottles with alcohol in them, they were great
Nicotine and spite.
Caffeine and anger.
Surprise. Fear and surprise. And ruthless efficiency.
And an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope!
I wasn’t expecting the Spanish Inquisition!
I was.
Caffeine these days.
If nothing else, my family. I don’t have a good sense of the future or life goals, so I keep myself moving by setting small goals. Plans to bake something, working on a painting, just little things around the home.
Hello fellow non life goal setter! Having that life goal mentality fucked me up for years, went to therapy and learned to live in the present while trying not to obsess about the future. So now little things are what keeps me going: Getting to yoga class, fixing a nice plate of food if I feel like it, petting my dogs, crocheting so I feel thr burden of the stuff that has to get done a little less.
Coffee. Scary amounts of it.
Because this is the only ride in town, might as well buy a ticket.
You never bought a ticket, you were born on the train.
