Just as a minor pedantic point, it’s gurgle. Gargle is what you do with a liquid, like mouthwash. When you attempt the same with a solid object it’s gurgle.

- Comment on Sometimes I feel nothing will change for the better and I feel frustrated about it. 1 month ago:
Don’t let the hopium commenters and the ‘it was worse a thousand years ago’ crowd gaslight you. Your intuition is correct, give yourself credit. You are correct: nothing will change for the better. Fragile ecosystems on the verge of collapse, climate catastrophes, rampant fleecing of the population via unchecked corporate greed, genocides, starvation, crumbling infrastructure, and most alarming -humanity turning inwards, rejecting science, embracing fascism across the globe, and unable to grasp the ramifications and importance of the plight of the world.
You are fully justified in feeling hopeless. Hopium is humanity’s reaction to the hopelessness (religion isn’t cutting it anymore).
Your best bet is to just make peace with it. Find happiness in the collapse. Think about the nice new shiny transparency effects in iOS 26, or the sale Target is having on imported plastic lawn ornaments.
You are a witness to the end of it all. And that’s a special place in history; a front row seat if you will.
- Comment on how do you deal with those characters fully convinced a job is something you have to enjoy? 1 month ago:
Why are you looking for fulfillment in a job?
As the other commenters stated, if you’re spending a significant portion of your life doing something, it makes sense to try to make it something you at least enjoy doing.
Wouldn’t it be better to find meaning in a hobby or family? Maybe writing a book? Painting?
Yes that’s well and good but the options are not mutually exclusive. You can have a rewarding hobby life AND a job that offers some measure of satisfaction and enjoyment.

First, stop referring to him as a ‘character’. Doing that makes you look insecure with your own situation. Next, understand his real question behind his words which is something more along the lines of “shouldn’t a career be more rewarding than just showing up?” Expecting that to be achievable for everyone in this day and age may be naive, but his idealism and wish for happiness is not a bad thing. He’s likely coming from a place of care rather than purposefully trying to antagonise you. I suspect you are mostly angry at his testing of your carefully built mental fortress, the one that insulates you from dwelling on the tedium and uninspired drudgery your future in that position offers.
