  • For real. Fuck Reddit. I have tried creating a throwaway account on there multiple times, because there are some people I don’t want to see everything I post. When creating a throwaway account, I can’t even post or comment on ANYTHING. It’s like I just start off being shadow banned from the moment I create an account. I’m tired of Reddit’s damn bullshit.










  • Agreed. And when you think about, everything is unproductive, really. You are here for a short period of time, and nothing is productive in the grand scheme of things. How does the universe benefit from what Jeff Bezos or Bill Gates have achieved? Absolutely not at all. The Earth is a speck of dust in the grand scheme of the Universe. Just live life and do whatever you want. Enjoy this weird existence that we somehow all were blessed (and cursed) with. Nobody knows why or how we are even here, so just enjoy it as much as you can, while you can.


  • I used to feel the same way sometimes, but then I thought about it for a while, and reflected on my own life as well. I see all these people around me that are busy pursuing fancy degrees and high-paying jobs. But at what coast? I thought to myself that following societal norms/expectations does not seem fulfilling or interesting to me at all. Why would I want to do things I don’t enjoy, just because it’s what everybody else is doing? No. I decided not to worry about it, and just do whatever I feel like doing, regardless of what other people think about it. If you enjoy laying in bed all day, reading Lemmy content, and nothing else, then fine. Do it. You are not wasting your life because you don’t do what everybody else is doing. You are wasting your life if you don’t do what you want to do, that’s it.
