Or is it really that bad? I miss the days before the 20s. It wasn’t unbearably hot, Chipotle was still good, I got enjoyment out of things. Now it seems like everything is s*** and what I used enjoy has fallen off completely. New iPhones are no longer impressing me, I haven’t seen any technology that really wowed me recently, I feel the world is legitimately just getting s***tier. I see happy people and I end up envying them

Everything has only gotten smaller and more expensive 😞

I would say "see a psychiatrist" but theyre hacks and d***ged up my dad for no reason. I'd say instead that maybe you shouldnt really care so much

you're not wrong. we in the decline of society bro. this s*** been predicted for a long time now. limits to growth and all that

try new things op

world was never on

Lemme put you on

I think the weather is what’s signaling that something is wrong for me. Like the weather shouldn’t be this hot and extreme.

I’m seeing a therapist since I don’t have a good history with medication.

Capitalism is doing it's thing

And people thought 2016 was a bad year

It really does feel like end times. It’s not immediate but it’s slow

this is what losers have always believed in every era

it's only going to get worse unfortunately. wet bulb temperatures will be reached more frequently, energy demands will only increase while resources deplete. the oceans have been a huge heat sink but now they are reaching their maximum threshold and extreme weather will become more common. (as already evidenced) it will be harder to predict weather and grow food. all these things coming together with some added spice of major war and bam, you got yourself a real dogshite scenario. i used to post in a thread all about this s*** but it got deleted at 60 pages and then when I rebooted it I just gave up. I'm not in my doom bag like that anymore. s*** is still mad f***ed up but I'm just smoking what I got, cultivating my garden yknow

good on you for seeing a therapist, if they don't match with you then see a different one, so on and so forth. I'm also not big w medication but in times of crisis I have utilized it.

Dang I had tons of research on this from an undergrad class but deleted all those folders from drive

There's a term for it I can't remember it

Wait when is the last time a new iPhone was impressive from any standpoint? The 5s?

The X impressed me cause I came from a 6

Maybe a pointless recommendation and you've maybe heard about it, but the book meditations by marcus aurelius really helped me throughout the years. Just keep in mind that you yourself decide what matters regardless of what others say, and all of this aint that serious, but we do have a purpose to fulfill, a human without a purpose is destined to wither tbh

fuucccckkk
............ bruhhh

you’re nostalgic for the 2010s?

iphones being less impressive as an example for the world turning to s***

We’re in the worst decade since the 40s man it’s not just you

Ion think it's that simple, as a matter of fact the reason why there are so many losers is the same reason why society is trash right now

Money and opportunity are hard to come by for most people

it's probably an age or a depression thing, i mean, there could've been people feeling the way you do right now in those times

Everything seems so artificial and watered down. Basketball, music video games films all boring and not what they used to be. I understand as time goes on I change with the times, but it does seem like the changes in our society appears to be part of some grand scheme at play
