I love that this joke works in English even though it's not written in English.

People die from wanting to. They die from heartbreak.

Yet no matter how strongly i want to die or how empty and heartbroken i feel i keep waking up

Last night in one of my dreams I wanted to talk to my mom but she was dead inside my dream too. I woke up from crying

Its horrible not having parents and being the only person you know without a partner and/or rich parents. Japan got so shitty the last year i was there and i ended up in a bad situation but i thought the saving grace would be coming back to my friends. But no. Honestly i hate struggling ALONE while none of them really care about anything going on/can just stick their heads in the ground. ANDDDD they all act like theyre fucking 60 years old. No one wants to do anything past 6pm and of we DO do anything on one day then they dont want to do anything else for over a fucking month. Ive always wondered if growing up in a wealthy area as a poor kid was a good or bad thing. Seems bad because everyone thinks i had all these opportunities i didnt have and i just watch everyone around me get handed everything by their parents and i dont have poor friends to commiserate with. Every fucking day im like fuck - was rhe stalking, groping, harassment, being taken advantage of, constant xenophobia, loneliness, insane crowds, and just breaking even better than THIS?? MAYBE!!!

Watching this hospital drama

Made me think about one of the times i was in the hospital and my mom was sitting in the room. And she went home and didnt stay the night. I wanted her to stay. And the whole time she was gone i missed her. I stared out the window waiting for her. When she came back i was excited to see her. I was 18.

But thats not the only time. Every time. Every day. All the time i was excited to see my mom. I missed her when she was gone and i used to greet her at the door like i was one of the dogs. Theres werent times past when i was a small kid in trouble that i wasnt excited to see my mom at any time of the day regardless of what she was doing

I followed her around and just liked being in proximity to her

I miss her so so much. Its not fair i only got 20 some years with her

That dumb trans helicopter joke is 20 years old.

watching 90s-2000s tv is crazy because it’s like wow. there used to be good writing and acting and more than 10 episodes per season and a new season every year. we really had it all.

one of the most fucked up aspects of being an adult is really how life-goes-on everything is. like you can be dealing with the most fucked up trauma-drama-grief and still have to sleep and eat food to survive and like. poop. pooping while you're really sad shouldn't be a thing but it is. we don't have a say in the matter. life goes on

I hate when my body gives into sleep. Waking up is horrible in these times but worse is eating. I can go more than a week without eating or feeling anything about not eating - but at some point you get all weak and dizzy and no ones gonna get me money or take care of me so here i am - eating against my own will to give my body the energy to make life keep going. Succumbed to the human need for food….even enjoying the taste when it feels wrong to do so. It seems more unfair because its not uncommon for animals to die of depression and stress - specifically because they can just sit in a corner and cry till they die. But human’s cant do that unless they own the home they live in alone and are weakened enough that they die before someone comes to check on them

It sucks how “anything can happen at any moment” really means anything bad could happen at any second

Cause like. Does something REALLY good just suddenly happen?

Absolutely not

You can get hit by a car, have a tree fall on you, get struck by lightning, hell - struck by a space debris, fall and break something vital, a natural disaster, get shot - any number of horrible things could happen at any second without any warning

But a good thing? Ya never find a sack of money on the ground. You don’t take a wrong turn and get given a house. The person of your dreams doesnt run into you in the grocery store and make a marriage proposal. You don’t go to a big city and get whisked away by a random executive who thinks your vibe screams perfect for a good job

No. Nothing good just happens

But bad things. They do. All the time.

So….. we’re in the bad place. That was already obvious but this is just more proof

i think we need to bring back calling people internet famous instead of calling them influencers like there needs to be something borderline derogatory injected back into it

[swiftlark]

hot take possibly? but i actually think it’s okay for things to be marketed for adults. it’s literally okay if things aren’t suitable for children. i feel like we are losing the plot

I’m so tired and I wish I knew what to do

[strawberryspeachy]

Its insane to have grown up in a world where getting a higher education and learning for fun was embraced while our kiddy shows pushed the importance of libraries - to an adulthood where everyone sounds like middle schoolers whining why they should learn anything and actively fighting to silence experts. Its genuinely terrifying seeing the shift thats happened in only ten years - i honestly don’t want to experience the world when the current generation of “unschooled” kids enter society. We’re literally on the brink of repeating the 1600s down the the resurgence of previously eradicated illnesses because these idiots think health standards are conspiracies.

The cure to anxiety is completing all the tasks you have to finish for the day early and doing them phenomenally and being physically perfect and on everyone’s good side preferably even their favorite.
