No news, I know, but still. This barbaric rule of Planet Earth dictates EVERYTHING.

As mundane as it sounds, I already had this realization as a child observing red and green traffic lights. Green for one side means red for the other. Winning in one game (most games are competitive) means that another person loses.

On the most microscopic level, our bodies constantly fight bacteria and viruses. Thinking about this, because I suffer from a painful UTI right now.

Even our body cells sometimes fight each other.

Did you know that cancer origins in a cell breaking the "cell contact" and tries to override other cells with its script? It may ignore signals telling it when to stop dividing, evade programmed cell death, and eventually expand at the expense of surrounding tissue.

Fleeting peace can only exist at the expense of someone else or when two equally strong forces temporarily compromise.

No thanks. Earth 2/5 ⭐, never again.

(It's not one star because people would opt out otherwise and Earth would be quite empty)

That’s pretty much it. Our grandparents and parents were paid off with pensions and an incredible quality of life and they sold out the lives of their own kids and grand kids. They bathed in pennies while sacrificing the future of every subsequent generation. Then they die comfortably with a million dollars they did next to nothing to get besides work some basic ass factory or gov job. Their short sightedness and laziness and greed and apathy secured the rest of our fates forever enslaved by the matrix/skynet hybrid they’ve created.

It was over the moment they built the first data center. Nothing short of a civilization ending event will “save” us now. I’m sitting here with my son on his 1 year birthday and just shaking my head. I’m devastated for him all while knowing I myself will not squeak through untouched like my parents and grandparents did. Except unlike them I wouldn’t want to. If there was something I could do I would. But soon my kid will be hawked by flock cameras linked to drones that watch him to make sure he’s maintaining an acceptable social credit score.

I’m rambling and I should have maybe thought this out before writing it but I feel like there’s no real point to anything anymore. Just work 55 hours a week to barely make a rent payment and keep him in diapers. So here I will make my parting remarks.

Fuck this, fuck the people who allowed this and did this, fuck patriotism, fuck technology. Fuck money. Fuck working. Fuck international affairs fuck ai fuck this sad excuse for a civilization and humanity. Fuck tomorrow. Fuck next week. Fuck oil and gas. Fuck your career and your retirement. Fuck war. Fuck the government. Fuck conformism. And in the future when this post is referred back to in an attempt to rob me of my freedoms or my humanity, fuck that when it comes.

Feed your family. That’s all we have left. Even if the food is all fake and poisoned and recalled. It’s literally all we have.

Humanity is evil and that's all it's good for and all it will ever do. Prove me wrong. Seriously. Give me hope please

Edit: None of y'all are giving me hope, you know this is a cry for help right?😭

I have zero interest in keeping my life account open for everyone who wants to suck it out of me.

Just can't. I need a lobotomy or some sort of exit strategy from this hellhole. I'm tired and suffocating

It’s just a thought I had a long time ago, but obviously, the technology and science of our era give people who aren't "meant" to reproduce a "chance" to do so and I put "chance" in quotes because it isn't really a chance at all.

How many of us would have died or been abandoned if we’d been born in prehistoric times or the Middle Ages eras when we lived more or less the way we were meant to?

All those who, like me, have bad genetics a weak body, short stature, lack of strength, mental health issues, and so on. I know what I’m talking about: I have pectus excavatum, a deformity that leaves a huge hollow in my chest. It has always prevented me from breathing properly or thriving physically.

My parents never wanted to get me surgery for it because they didn't care. And naturally, the suffering isn't just physical; it’s also and above all psychological. I was bullied from a very early age because of it; I can't bear to go shirtless in front of anyone.

Basically, I hate my body.

I know I would have died before reaching adulthood if I’d been born in an earlier time. How many of us wouldn't be alive today were it not for the miracles of technology?

Weak bones, a frail appearance, mental health issues, a life of suffering where no one takes you seriously because of your physique, your ugliness, or your posture.

That’s why there are so many "ugly" and weak people around, and living like that leads only to depression and hatred so much bad genetic material that isn't supposed to be passed on, and yet...

I really don't mean to be so negative but with the advent of data centers and Trump threatening to nuke Iran, I just feel like there's going to be some sort of mass extinction event in my lifetime. So many foods have been recalled in the US. We have no clue what the status of Mitch McConnell is. Black people are being lynched and no one is really saying much about it. Heat waves are killing people in Europe and causing wildfires across the world. There's so much more I can hardly think of right now. I just want things to get better.

What kind of God gives his own creation severe mental illnesses and physical illnesses? God is pure evil.

If I could go back in time and stop myself from being born, I would do it with no hesitation. This isn't me saying I wanna delete myself or any bs like that. I'm saying that everything about life is fucking bs and a lie and it all starts from the day I was born. I grew up thinking Santa Claus was real turns out no he isn't. I grew up thinking the tooth fairy was real turns out no it was my fucking mom all along. I was born in a household that I never asked to be born in, given a body that I never asked to have, given a brain and a way of thinking and a personality and a name that I never fucking chose.

I never asked to be a person that thinks this way. Like why is my consciousness this way and why has my life aligned to me making this reddit post and thinking this way? And I'm saying this as someone who just turned 18. The longer I live the more I understand how this world is a genuine scam and nothing makes sense. I grew up a shy anxious kid while some people in my class where just magically confident since the day they started elementary school somehow. I was taught to treat people the way I wanna be treated and to be kind to people yet I never actually was treated better than the entitled shitheads that where born with money and born with a certain face. I treated my girlfriend like a genuine princess and I get cheated on and heartbroken yet my friends who treat their girls like piles of trash are in way better relationships and way happier than I am. My friend who scams lonely men by pretending to be a girl Is out here living life and eating steak and lobster yet I'm here eating shit. People are out here working 15 hours a day to barely make ends meet yet Mr 16 yr old Lamine Yamal over here is already a multi millionaire because he's somehow 500x better than people who spent decades of hours and hours of training each day in this sport to perfect their craft and still haven't made it and are now working 9-5s.

It just makes me think why am I not out here scamming and robbing people? Like why am I not out here manipulating people to get what I want? And why is It when I do something that works in my favor but hurts someone else I get a strong feeling of guilt and empathy that I never asked to have that just ruins everything I did and prevents me from doing anything like this going forward?

It genuinely makes me think that everyone already has their life planned out since the day they where born and they will always be a certain kind of person even if they didn't ask to be or think that way. Someone could be magically born with a certain kind of brain structure that makes their personality and thinking a certain way that they live a very happy exciting life, which they never actually chose, while there are people out here born with a certain outlook on the world that they'll forever be a certain kind of person even if they fucking hate themselves.

Life is just straight bs and don't even get me started on religion

Literally starting to feel like hell, all the damn fires. Violence. All the weird ass stuff being normalized. But its only gonna get worse

Since you say you’ve lost hope? Why? In a few words explain what’s kept you going for so long and why you have decided you’re done. People think taking yours is easy but it’s the hardest because it wasn’t given to you. Can’t speak for everybody but from about when I was born till about 6 years old I was a kid for a short time I enjoyed it. Then eventually had things just kept happening
To us and looking back idk who we use to blame. But it was ME. The Middle Child. Always there to fuck shii up, eat the straps, and take whatever is left for them. I can’t speak for you but living on earth is Hell for me already. This is my punishment and karma Everyday. I wanna read sum people stories maybe somebody who understands.

This is my second attempt explaining more on why society is slowly degrading.

First off since Fake Covid happened that’s when everything went down hill from social media, to the economy I was in my last year of senior year finishing high school when is was mandatory to wear a mask the teachers all of a sudden turned political and not wearing a mask was seen as the most harmful thing teachers would tell me I would be sent to the office for not wearing a mask ect. Worst last year of my school year because of how strict it got but I made it through.

Fast forward works been okay for the most part but content is degrading to just people yapping there mouths off about opinion’s or facts that probably aren’t true or at all spreading misinformation,stress and anxiety on everyone content is not about yapping or venting to the whole world it used to be about creating a video for entertainment whether you were gaming,vlogging, or doing reactions it was out of fun. Since it’s harder to make money people throw in paid ads in there videos or sponsor some product in between obviously YouTube’s not paying enough anymore.

Instagram,Facebook,Snapchat,YouTube pretty much everything has reels in it a lot more videos are more subtly inappropriate or nothing but conspiracy talk now pretty much now everyone’s “Awake” just because the Epstein files came out. And still nothing happened or no one did anything then they said aliens are real, then they are saying ai is getting better and they need data centers , then they say the war with Iran is rising, then they say it’s never ending everyday something new goofy clown show of reality that we live in something catastrophic happens or some massacre but everyone’s to busy worried about hating trump, hating ice, or supporting things they have nothing to do with.

My generation Gen Z cannot catch a break with articles bashing us left and right trying to degrade a young group of people in a very confusing time to live in and Gen Alpha is definitely cooked if you haven’t seen how a teen or child acts nowadays that’s why we don’t wanna have kids. Every kids now is a shit head they think they know everything, the supervisons for technology went out the window, screen time doesn’t exist I mean how can you keep a child from seeing technology nowadays you can’t your child will see some other kid with a phone or Xbox and beg you to have one because kids get envy and jealous. The teens are vaping at 10 -15 years old, and the whole acting “hood” or whatever culture is soo cringe all these words “twin” or being called “unc” all these immature words are actually annoying I feel like I’m lowering my iq when I say those words 💩.

Overall everything just sucks all the things that used to entertain us now tell us we need to subscribe or we won’t have it. All the things we used to call truth gets ignored because people would rather want quick dopamine that hear truth. Everyone’s using AI for there critical thinking skills or how to simply put a sentence together. At this point the future really does not look bright unless your at the top and accept the 2030 agenda and wanna be more slaved to the system but it crazy to see how everything felt normal as a kid but I realized nothing was ever normal we’re all just finding our own way in life.

Something that came to my mind.

TW, addiction. also sorry for the long post i just needed to vent, i feel like im going crazy and need to know im not the only person who feels this way

I fucking hate money. Human greed has reached unbelievable levels and as a result life sucks for most people, and the worst part is most people dont even see that its money causing their problems and the ones that do cant do anything about it. I have a job but i only make 15$ an hour and thats in canadian money so like 10$ usd. I cant afford shit with this pay, my family lives in a shitty little apartment that i hate but ill never be able to move out. I cant afford a car, cant afford to try any new hobbies or sports, cant afford education, cant afford to go out and do fun things so any time im not working im forced to just sit in my room and stare at my phone to pass the time. This caused me to develop drug addictions as well to make the days go by faster. My addictions were really bad at one point, earlier this year and late last year i was abusing multiple different kinds of drugs, slowly spiraling. Since then ive quit most of those and just smoke weed now but without them i feel like im losing my mind in the endless boredom and misery of life, and somehow i still have just as little money as when i was buying all those substances. nothing has gotten better since quitting them, if anything i feel worse overall because i lost one of the only things that brought me joy anymore. My physical health is going downhill, i constantly feel like shit. Ive got daily back pains at only 19 and stomach problems that have been bothering me for months but i cant see a doctor until september because the wait list is so long. I know i cant go much longer before i go back to my addictions and probably spiral worse than last time. I guess ive just been holding out hoping something will change but at this point i dont think it will. I dont think i will ever be able to live the life i want to under this system.

This money only ever fuels greed and hate, everyone else is fighting to get ahead by getting more jobs, starting side hustles, working themselves to death or taking advantage of other people to give themselves a boost. I just dont see the point of any of it. All i want to do is create things, i am an artist and i dream of making music to share with people and inspire them but of course it costs money to follow my dreams now. Cant afford recording equipment or a pc for editing, all i have is my instruments that i cant even play because its too loud for the apartments. I have a saxophone that i loved to play but i havent touched it since moving into the apartment almost a year ago. Feels like a part of my soul has been ripped out, and these days i just feel empty inside. Im not built for this kind of life and its crushing me.

On top of all of that it kills me even more to see all the other people suffering. Millions of other young adults and teens who had their dreams ripped away from them for profits. Countless people dying in pointless genocides and wars overseas. Every country slowly drifting towards fascism and dictatorship. So many people homeless and starving on our very own streets. Ai infiltrating everything and mass surveillance becoming a common thing we dont even question anymore. and for what? some stupid paper and its made up value? ill never understand

Im losing hope, and im losing my mind. i need to know other people are awake to this. And i honestly want to know, does anyone think this will change any time soon? I was hopeful that people would start actually trying to make a change after all the epstein files dropped, or after the gaza genocide, or SOMETHING. ANYTHING. i dont think its happening anymore. every day i think of ending things, and i know im not even close to the only one experiencing this. we arent meant to live like this.

I hope that the evil universe is truly just a coincidence, that everything requiring suffering is only because of tiny non conscious balls moving around, that when people die its nothing so they are free from suffering

unfortunately the numerous spiritual experiences each religions bring are too vast and too similar to be just psychological to me, it feels more likely that the universe is just made and controlled by a bunch of sadistic diabolical demiurges wanting to get their rocks off by causing as much suffering as possible, everything requires suffering in order to function from washing your hands killing off a bunch of micro-organisms to eating food requiring you to kill another being or treat a being as a slave (even if youre vegan since plants are living organisms) and its all because of the sadistic tyrants that rule over and laugh at us, the afterlife is most likely either reincarnation so the cycle of suffering keeps on going or an eternity in hell where suffering lasts even longer simply because the demiurges need some entertainment

this is why asceticism is a common practice in most religions and even the ones that dont practice it still engage in things that lead to suffering (such as Dionysus cults engaging in animal sacrifice and Judaism having the Kaparot Custom) suffering already brings the demiurges much joy but suffering done in devotion to them that sucks them off and strokes their ego? its orgasmic to them

this is also why so many religions have rules against blasphemy, the demiurges get mad when you point out their tyranny instead of mindlessly kneeling and worshipping them and accepting the suffering that comes your way, as well as why so many religions have contradictions because it leads to people fighting and causing suffering against each other in ways that range from being mean in arguments to causing wars

there is still a small chance that atheism/materialism are true and i desperately hope so, there is decent arguments for them even if i lean more towards theism/spirituality and they are undeniably the more favorable option when compared to ANY form of theism, at least in atheism the suffering is accidental and not intentional, the universe is meaningless instead of its only meaning being to fulfill the sick fetishes of the tyrannical demiurges and all of it will inevitably end with everyone experiencing nothing after death and the universe ceasing to exist instead of being forced into new worlds of total suffering, unfortunately thats very unlikely and too optimistic.

A lot of people are influenced by social media their entire lives. Their personalities are all the same. Same consciousness different body. You can see peoples priorities are looking rich and sounding cool it’s so broken. Everybody is so obsessed with putting on an image for how other people see them. I mean imagine living life like that it’s so dumb. Nobody cares about anything besides gaining others approval and attention. Everybody has to show what they are doing online 24/7 nobody can enjoy the moment they all have to make sure everybody knows what they’re doing or what they’re wearing or where they are going or flexing a measly 10-20 grand if even that spreading it and calling people poor. It’s a disease so many people are infected by. Social media has literally formed peoples entire consciousness and personality to be the exact same. You see it everywhere. Nobody is authentic they’re all clones. It’s pathetic. And it’s even worse when you realize these people will have kids and the kids will learn from the parent’s personalities and morals. But These people will never realize that their entire lives and personalities are influenced by social media. It’s the people who need attention and need to fit in and then they develop a personality and consciousness the exact same as everyone else’s. Pathetic people.

23M struggling with social atrophy, barley hold connection's & just cant help but wonder why everyday's the same thing & for what, to make money, to bring more people here so they can experience the same things we do, to keep the cycle going, seriously what are we doing here & what is the point of all of it, is there even any point to it, how are we so cool with putting up with the same monotony all the time & when you do mention topics like these, the first thing people are gonna think is that person's crazy, because we gotten too used to the programming "called life!"

(Chuckles) you know like whats so good of getting up so early every monday just to go somewhere you dont wanna be, putting up with co workers who live in their so called corporate dream where i just see it as a prison, just like this whole life is with no bars in place, because if you could have anything you wanted right now, we wouldnt have to go through embarrassing situations trying to prove our worth in a world thats brutal, chaotic & just straight up annoying.

I just can't digest how people would wanna keep this going for ever longer subjecting to frivolous conditions, it makes zero sense, & even if someone wanted out of this life, youre gonna get called a coward & a softie all because you see for what it is, which isnt an easy thing to do as our nervous systems make it difficult to do so, its like a self defense mechanism that forces you to tolerate this monstrosity, its like being addicted to our own suffering when we create it additionally on top of oursleves, people like to say that ohhhh life is beautiful, life is a gift, oh why wouldn't anyone want to be part of this atrophising existence, because theres nothing to gain, at the end of the day nothing that you do comes with you.

Life goes on with or without us, it couldn't care any less about our existence, just like any other animal, they dont go worrying about whats happening in the world or which celebrity deceased or how much money they got, we are literally the only one that does this, its embarrassing, & despite how advanced we like to boast on about, we still cant solve our own problems, then people wonder oh why is the world full of problems blah blah & that, because we are just not as good as we like to think, we still cause more & more problems, we still have homeless, we still have impoverished environments, why perpetuate the cycle when this is literally what we continue to do, hence we dont even fully understand oursleves, yet people wanna keep it going, what a joke.

Anyways how are you's getting through it & what do you's do to cope.

Thats all for now.

I don't even know anymore, I just wanna talk about this whole mess like some people started waking up about this world, understand my nihilistic or misanthropic mentality.

It's been a while already I'm trying not to spend hours on scrolling on tiktok because I got so pissed off doing It, like everyone seems so stupid and yeah I don't like that but the thing is I'm depressed, even if I do other stuff, even if I watch series, read, create, draw like I used to, even if I wanna become that girl that read that is smart that is creative, tbh just like I used to be but, everything seems boring I don't know how to motivate myself, the more I see the state of the world the more I wanna disappear, I'm just so disgusted by everything.

I'm so overwhelmed with people that I always tend to be introverts, but now it's even worse I isolate myself, and I cause drama without meaning it.

I do everything trying to be normal, going out, traveling, etc. But I don't feel pleasure in there, I don't know why I'm still here, everything is boring and everything is becoming bad rn.

I just wanna know if some people live the same situation and have advice to give. Thank you.

I feel humanity is done I feel like we won't be here in 7-12 years
