'scuse me
The thought of dying gains more optimism because you get more and more fatigued by people and their bullshit. The toxicity, self-entitlment, tribalism, narcissism, hate… There’s enough of them out there to just ruin it all enough that it gets exhausting and saddening. I figure by my old age, I’ll be happy with checking out.
If there’s an afterlife and it has to be shared with people of Earth again, I’ll be so pissed off.
How it makes me understand more and more of my parents’ actions and opinions that I questioned or condemned when I was younger. So maybe even…becoming more conservative in a way.
How old are you? I feel like I started off being such an edge lord on the internet, and now at 30 I’ve never felt more aligned with left leaning ideologies. My father was pretty left leaning as well.
I’m 32. Maybe conservative was not the right word to use. I still consider myself on the left side of the political spectrum (even outside of the US). But every now and then I catch myself in situations, where I would have been a lot more idealistic some years ago. Now there are often thoughts like ‘Well, there have to be compromises’. But you made a great point. The shift you go through while growing older may definitely depend on your parents’ political views, too.
Everyone my age is angry about something that happened two decades ago and is working off a mental life story that “explains” why they are doing awful things. As if they get angry enough or disagree enough it can somehow backwards correct the unfixable.
I find it surprising that conversations and interactions with my cohort are basically an eternal thanksgiving dinner without the food or happiness. People are reduced to sore points, don’t mention x, don’t talk about anything related to x, whatever you do dont downplay x. They will demand you take a side about x.
I’ve only gotten MORE healthy and strong.
My sex drive hasn’t gone down like media tells me
Retirement is a fantasy
When I look at homeless people I think 'that could be me in 4 months if I miss 2 weeks of work.
