sorry i had to post this here because i have been fighting this thought for a few days and it might spiral if i dont try to do something about it, so i posted it.
its a very depressing thought to think that ‘we’re doomed’ its just depressing
just feel like everything is fkd and its not going to last, like we havent got long left
Between the news and the weather that I know is coming, I’ve been drinking a lot. I don’t worry much as a result but still have a lingering feeling of gloom
nobody going to help me then? tell me its alright? fk it
tell me that things will get better, give me a pat on the back?
its that old cliche we all know ‘whats the point’ idk how many times i’ve said it and i still havent worked it out, sure people have there opinions but that isnt enough, useless hearsay, its all ■■■■■■■■, guess i am not helping myself
Sometimes I believe what William Faulkner said - “I believe humanity will not only continue to exist; humanity will prevail.” Or something like that. There are some huge problems we face - global warming, nuclear proliferation, pollution. It will take a lot of effort to solve those problems.
So what? I may be doomed but so what? I’m not going to give up on my life because of it. I guess I may be
doomed some time down the road a little but I’m not going to give up on what’s happening now because of something that may ( or may not) happen ten or twenty years in the future. At the very least, when doom hits me in ten or twenty years I’ll have some great memories to think about. If @shutterbug or @mortimermouse, or any number of other posters on here who are lucky enough to have a measure of a life read this, I don’t think they are going to roll over and give up either.
Naww. You don’t want to screw the horse it rode in on. We don’t need any little horses running around in 9 months that are so evil that they will let death ride them.
I’ve been seeing potential societal collapse ever since Columbine. I remember Wilco’s Summerteeth* came out around the same time and one of the lyrics in the first song is " You know it’s all beginning/ to feel like it’s ending." For about the last 7 or 8 years, I’ve really been trying to lighten up and see the good in the world. But for a lot of people these days, one thing that is lacking is our sense of community and family. Even if people are communicating with one another physically, there just seems to be a lack of depth. I guess if there’s one thing I’ve learned in recent years, though, is that there are no happy endings.
trying man, all i can think of right now is organised chaos and this war is merely a distraction to keep our minds off of the real issues of the world, its 5am here nobody cares about anything though really, its damage limitation if you ask me, everybody is willing to turn a blind eye as much as they can anyway, they say ‘oh, thats bad’ at the time of something wrong but nobody ever does anything about it,
