    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!

      I, like most of us on Lemmy, live a better life than almost the entirety of the rest of human history.

      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 wonders and joy and there’s so much more to enjoy!

      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.

    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.

    Basically nothing. But like I’m gonna die eventually, why try to rush to the finish line?

    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.
