I’m doing well. I have a good life. But holy shit, I’m so tired. The world is so terrible and I’m just fed up. I wish I could just check out and take a break, but it keeps going. Cheers.
This post is certainly outside of the norm of shower thoughts. I think in general people want posts that score a little higher on the scale of funny and interesting. Taking the sidebar strictly:
- Does this thought pop into people’s heads? yeah, probably
- Is it lighthearted? Not really, but its friendly.
- Is it clever? No
- Is it true? Yes
It doesn’t really vibe with the rest of the sub but idk what sub one would put this in.
Sorry I had to run and didn’t get to wrap up my thought.
I don’t really mind if a post isn’t a perfect fit. I try to give the benefit of the doubt. If we had hundreds of really strong posts every day then I imagine I would be more strict. Lemmy is small so at least we can be friendly and supportive in decisions that aren’t clear cut.
Ah ok that’s a much better fit
Wrong sub, but I agree with you wholeheartedly Every single word of it.
Exist out of spite. The terrors persist, but so do I.
Ooh, I like this. Thanks!
I like this. Let’s do it.
Thanks, idk if op needed this but I did
At this point I’m convinced that the terrors are persisting out of spite for me, personally.
Welp terror gonna terror, i guess. Hence the existing out of spite!
I’m tired boss
You’re not alone.
Take a week. Avoid any social media, news, etc. as much as you possibly can. Try to get out in nature by going for short walks and just focus on doing things you enjoy (or try something new). Yes, the world keeps going - but you need to recharge your batteries, my friend. Take. A. Break.
This is the way.
Burnout.
Hello darkness my old friend, I have come to speak with you again…
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
I also think of overthrowing the oligarchy in the shower.
A couple of years back I fell asleep at like 8 PM and slept through to 6:30 AM. Then I fell back asleep around 8 or 9 and slept until noon. When I woke up I didn’t feel tired at all. This had been the first time I felt like that in I don’t know how long
I was only awake for nine hours of yesterday and it was great.
I slept nearly 12 hours last night, woke up, had a panic attack, then took a nap for four hours.
Woke up, put on The Elephant Graveyard Radio Hour, danced and cleaned my house happy.
It’s also been a long time since a nap like that worked so well. Sometimes ya just need to sleep.
We’re all scared, it’s the human condition. Why do you thinks I put on this tough guy facade? Now, beat it!
I’m with you dude (virtual hug)
Thank you.
Same, fellow human, same.
He hears the silence howling
Catches angels as they fall
And the all-time winner
Has got him by the balls
Oh, he picks up Gideon’s Bible
Open at page one
I said, God, he stole the handle and,
The train it won’t stop goin’
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
Jethro Tull - Locomotive Breath
I’ve never heard this song, but it can be sung to the tune of Folsom prison
Just listen to the song and you’ll hear rock music’s best and worst flutist at the same time.
No one fluttertounges like Jethro
Mind blown
Nice deep cut
That’s just the impending clinical depression creeping in.
Nah, I’ve had many depressive bouts (bi-polar). This is more like I’ve given up on the world post-Trump-2. I’m checked out to avoid the depression. One could argue this is still pre-depression, and I wouldn’t argue back. But it’s not yet depression. I note that you said creeping… I’m distinguishing between them.
yeah, I know what you mean.
