I don’t have anything to look forward to in life except money entering my direct deposit every two weeks and back catalogs of podcasts. I don’t even want to listen to music anymore.

    This is a shitty take. I’m pretty fit and good looking for someone my age or so I hear, but I really suck at picking up on social kills and have terrible self esteem issues/depression and anxiety, also as @OrionsMask@hexbear.net said it’s lame to just assume someone’sstruggle is just because they are ugly or out of shape, i don’t think you inrended harm but show a little more empathy when a comrade is struggling.

        its not bad advice and I don’t think you meant anything by it, but saying “get swole and then you can do hedonism while hot” does absolutely assume OP is not already swole.

          There’s being “not swole” and there is being ugly and you are the one conflating those two things not me, and if OP is already swole then that wouldn’t offend them and saying to someone who isn’t swole that getting swole will make them hotter is a broadly true thing to say, personal preferences of course introducing variance but the swole get more hedonistic interest it’s just a fact.

          If I say someone should moisturize I am not calling them ugly and it’s a chip on your shoulder if you assume I’m insulting your appearance if I say those who use sun screen look better than those who don’t.

          Lifting weights is fun and goes well with podcasts.
