Sorry bud. It sounds like an internal thing slowing you down and external things causing a defeating blow. Im a elder millennial and I know how that goes. It’s been one garbage event after another since highschool. All you can do is keep pushing and focus on incremental success so you get some endorphins flowing. I started with exercise. Did I meet my little goals? Fuck yeah every day because my goal was to work out. If my goal was to lift my body weight I’d still be starving for endorphins.

Like what are we talking about here? You cheat on your partner? Lie about important stuff? If it’s that you aren’t meeting peoples expectations that’s a “manage expectations” thing on their end and you aren’t doing anything wrong. You don’t have to meet any bars, you just have to not intentionally hurt people.

Taking bets on how fast this gets spun into an AI emissions thing and they glaze over all the pro-trump bull crap they have made.

I couldn’t imagine this holy day of days, Taco Tuesday, without my homies South of the border. What am I gonna eat buffalo wings? A s’more?

If deadlifts are too dangerous I don’t think squats will be a good idea either. I would just like everyone to know I started, no experience, with a pretty messed up back, with deadlifts and nothing happened because I was reasonable and took everything slow. Don’t be afraid of them.

Man. I remember sleeping on floors for 9 hours straight and being fine. Thems the days. Getting old sucks until you start exercising then it isn’t so bad. I’m starting to see friends my age deteriorate and it sucks. If nothing else lift heavy things off the ground like with deadlifts. Just 4 sets of 6 3-4 times a week should make a huge change and won’t take more than 15-20min. You can buy workout sand bags for cheap so you don’t need a bar and plates. Also walk.

Edit: oh yeah masturbate and drink water too. You can try them all in the same 15-20min span if you are short on time.

Everyone, go to your local retailer that sells crayons and get a variety of colors from different manufacturers. You never know what flavor or brand they will want so it’s best to have a spread. You can use that to barter or as a lure.

I’m pretty sure it was domestic abuse

Fuck cars, vegan communities, gender specific communities, cooking communities - because these types tend to be hard-line judgemental and fueled by hate (looking at you steak)

Mental health meme communities because they just post anything and say it’s a trait of their condition. Does anyone else think about stuff? ADHD amiright?

Edit: oh and tHaNkSiMcUrEd because they just make fun of self help now

Anime art communities because there are so many and it’s not my thing but I support their interests

Anything not in English because I can’t read anything

Leftover Crack Is Awesome

This too

It is. If you aren’t explicit you are malicious just in case. It’s just weird that I wasn’t being sarcastic and people took it that way, but when I’m sarcastic without tags people take it literally.

I go through phases of recoiling and isolating and like an idiot I poke my head back in to realize everyone has gotten worse. I’m an idiot.

The “no duty to protect” doctrine. Our news doesn’t even have to be factual.

We also reward people who can memorize and regurgitate even if they don’t understand what they are doing.

Yeah dealing with these people was my point. I’m not sure why I’m getting downvoted for saying the same thing as you.

Oh that’s right ::gestures to my username::

That would make them a martyr and just cause more turds to float to the surface so we can fill even more ditches. Sounds like a good plan.

You made a reasonable comment grounded in truth but one word was slightly incorrect so now everything you said is invalid.

I was obviously replying to the meat is murder part by bringing up that cultured meat can be produced without murder now. It’s not commercially viable yet but it exists so not all meat is murder. I forgot how nitpicky vegans can be and why I never engage with those communities.

This lady won with 73% of the vote in 2020, 71% in 2022, and unopposed in 2024. She is exactly what the people in that area want and that’s sad. The US is like social media. It’s not the platform it’s the users that make it garbage.

Does this count as not existing?

I’m medicated but I’ve formed habits unmedicated because those habits had to compensate for the meds I couldn’t afford. Diet and exercise. I’m constantly invalidated by communities like this which just isolates me further. I’ve been told my issues aren’t severe by strangers. Mental health meme communities are toxic and I can’t wait until people start realizing that. I can’t stand tHaNkSiMcUrEd because it went from pointing out “smile more it will make you happy” and how stupid that is to making fun of self help entirely.
