This used to be completely normal before massive money printing and inflation.

@mos_8502 To suggest the right wing hates Autistics provably false, they embraced Elon Musk, however they do hate injecting toxins into babies turning normal children into autistic children.

Idk man, I'm on a low, I'm just tired, work is a lot of emotional labor that i do out of respect for my manager that treats me like a human being and not a beast of burden but it's getting to me.
I'm a sick a frail man i have a lot of shit to deal with mentally and socially i can't support other people's well being to that extent
They want to "promote" me, I'd work week ends so I'd get rid of the emotional labor but I'm not sure if i want double the work for fuckall and a handshake
My rimworld colony is fire tho, everyone is happy as fuck in fine garnments, lavish meal, entertainment, even the slaves are dancing in the streets, raiders are butchered and resolds as majestic human skin robes to finance converting my colonist to full terminators cyborgs, full steam ahead for a commercial victory

You'd think, after FORTY YEARS of doing my own laundry, cleaning my own home, paying my own bills, cooking my food, having owned two successful businesses, and entertained thousands when I was doing theatre and karaoke I'd treat myself better... think MORE of myself... take some satisfaction knowing I've DONE THE ADULT THING and been successful at it.
But there's nothing. There's no BIG payoff at the end. You just keep walking the path, hoping for the pot of gold and the pot is empty and needs to be washed, just like all the others you've washed in your life.
Sure, you take some solace in having loved a few times and continue to gather the unconditional love of your dogs, but I'm bemused at the lack of contentment.
How do you guys find contentment?
What do you do to calm the desperation?

@mindsprome I would suggest getting involved in local politics. Nothing will eat up more time and will also charge you up with a hatred for your fellow man so strongly that youโll always want to live one more day on the off chance that youโll get to see them suffer.
hmm, that wasnโt very positive now that I think about it ๐ค

@RichardKuklinskisIcyGlare It's the birth control getting flushed into the water supply, they can't get the hormones out. It's also why girls are going through puberty so young now.
"I tried the trad life and it didn't work"
"Oh? what did you try?"
"I tried doing blow, sucking married guys dicks and going alone to romania to get money off andrew tate"
"oh, wow, I don't really know if tha-"
"And then I fucked destiny and left my husband"

I am in San Francisco.
I am on the CalTrain. We just had to wait for 20 minutes while they cleared homeless people off tracks. I missed my connection train because of it, and now I have to wait an hour.
California sucks.
We live in an era of civilisational collapse. It's already baked into the cake, it's already happening, the world 100 years from now is not going to look like the world today. All you need to do is look at birth rates, and how long they've been as low as they have been. Therefore, the highest calling as a parent it's not maximizing their individual happiness, or their market success, is building them into an individual with the strength, adaptability, grit, and emotional stability to carry forward meaning, virtue, and civilization through a collapse even if institutions that we rely on fail. In this way, parenting is not just an act of personal love (though of course it is), but an act of love for all of humanity, helping to carry forward the flame I got everything you feel worth preserving in your family and our culture.
In case you think I'm a doomer or a prepper, there's a few points. First, if you end up making your kid anxious and nihilistic then they aren't mentally emotionally stable, strong, adaptable, and they will lack grit. Civilizations end all the time, that doesn't mean the end of everything and everyone. Arguably the World wars ended Western Civilization as it once existed, and we are living in the aftermath of that right now. Second, preparing a child for collapse looks pretty similar to preparing them for no collapse. You still want to raise a kid who is strong, adaptable, has grit, and has emotional stability.
In an archetypical way, every generation sees a collapse and rebirth as the new generations pick up with their parents left them. In some ways, there was a massive collapse in the 1970s, in the world of the 1980s is nothing like the world of the 1960s. By the way people playing the baby boomers for what the world turned into in the 1980s, but they didn't really have much of a choice with the world collapsing around them.
Another important thing is that people might misunderstand and think you raise your kid hard and mean if you think that a collapse is coming. I don't think that there's any evidence of that being the right way to do things. Your kids grow up seeing the world through the lens that you give them with the way that you treat them in their childhood. If you show them that you are anxious, that you are scared, that you are weak, when they are going to assume that that's the way that the world works and how you have to live. By contrast, if you show them love, and joy, and competence, if you show them how to live in a world without relying on massive institutions and every moment of every day, then that will be the way that they grow up. The sort of child who makes it through the collapse will have a secure attachment to their parents, many wonderful memories playing outdoors, maybe learning to weld, to build things, they will remember going through their life being able to do things and figuring out the struggles along the way. And so when they aren't getting their hand held they will know that they are strong enough to deal with things.
This whole concept was hinted at in the last chapter of my first book, the graysonian ethic, which warns my son that nobody owes you anything, and you have to have a combination of gratitude and skepticism for the things you do get. My next book which I'm releasing in the next month or two once editing is complete is actually about the collapse, looking at a world 100 years in the future. The key is that just because civilization collapses doesn't mean that's the end of everything, or that we go into a mad Max dystopia. It means whoever remains will need to lay a New foundation of meeting, values, and make sense of world that no longer makes sense under the old paradigm.

This who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Those who do, are doomed to watch while history repeats.
Everything is fake and gay.
