      Same here. Recently went to a doctor for some internal stuff, and she’s like “well, we want to prevent x, y, and z from progressing too fast because…”

      And part of me wants to just interrupt and be like “what’s the fuckin’ point? Have you seen outside?”

        Unfortunately, they probably have seen outside exactly how you mean it, they’re probably dealing with similar issues, and like you, they’re just at work, going through the motions, trying to get through the day, hoping to have a slice of it left over for themselves at the end.

        That’s the most insidious part of it, it affects so many of us that none of us has the time, patience, or effort to give others anymore.
