    The most giga-fucked part is that we could be living on a literal paradise on Earth with the technology we have. However, certain... actors (market makers, politicians, inherited wealth shits) desire to be neo-nobility and have an addiction to hoarding resources. Literal dragon shit. Well, these dumb fucks don't realize the current generation REALLY loves dungeons and dragons. Where dragons get slain and their hoards plundered. Of course, there are wealthy people out there who AREN'T complete monsters. They exist, ie the Disney heiress who has been trying to warn her fellow billionaires about the potential danger they're in if they don't equalize society @_@

    I don't understand the "teenage stepdad" on the pricetag.

    Is that, like, a teenagers stepdad...or is that just the next progression after these kids on Xbox fuck my mother?

    I wasn't in a good place to begin with. Then the US political debate happened and it just got worse...

    If my level of hope for the future was 15/100 before, it's like 2/100 now.

      This has some real 'just go touch some grass' energy. You sound like my brother who after a decade of telling me that my mental health issues are my fault because I don't live the way he does, still can't seem to comprehend that fucked-up brain chemistry is a thing that exists. All the salads and fresh air in the world won't suddenly fix my neurotransmitters and just magically correct the fundamental dysfunction up there. Maybe don't act like you know what will fix me if you don't even understand what's wrong with me.

        What if its not your brain chemistry and really has to do with your habits? What if brain chemistry is just an excuse? I dont know for you, but there definitely is a correlation between people doing less physical things and mental illness.

          I've been dealing with this for over 20 years and no matter what my level of activity or diet has been, that's never changed. I used to run marathons and was in excellent shape for years, and it never made me any less bipolar/depressive at all, that's how I know.

            If you are actively trying to get healthier, why are you on social media? I really am not trying to attack you, but social media is terrible and directly aggravates everything. As someone that has had all my sibling attempt suicide, I am sympathetic and I will try to challenge people.

          This has to be the single fucking stupidest opinion I've seen anyone voice whole year. Jesus fuck, forget anything I said about how I think you mean well, because you clearly don't. You're a fucking walking and talking example of the Dunning-Kruger phenomenon who has their head so far up their ass that they think brain chemistry is an excuse, and that your fantastically idiotic opinions clearly mean you're wiser than the rest of us plebs when you can't even process the thought that maybe mental illness could affect how much someone exercises. How you manage to function in society without dying of drinking bleach is completely beyond me
