i get tired thinking of all the toxic chemicals in the air, water, food that i’ve been inhaling, drinking, ingesting over 4 decades. and apparently the plastics in my balls

fb could start charging $50 per comment/post/login/anything, and people still won’t delete their account

i’m comforted by the fact that everyone in this picture despises everyone else in this picture. the thought that trump probably hates elmo because of his giant hands makes me happy

true, comedy inherently requires an audience, but you’re trying to move away from the core point of trying to get people to care about you on social media. people in a comedy bar are there specifically to watch comedy. not everyone who’s online is here specifically to watch hand crafted videos, and lamenting over the fact that you’re not getting engagement/upvotes (especially on lemmy) is just stressing yourself out for no good reason

ok. i personally know more than one person who thinks they’re hilarious and don’t care that no one else thinks so. they’re enjoying themselves and that’s enough for them.
and before you start talking about money (“need” feedback) , if you’re doing something in order to get paid, now you’re moving from “hobby” to “job” territory, which is a completely different thing. my point stands

another thing that makes us human is that yes, we absolutely do have some degree of control over what stresses us out. one of those things being what the world thinks about us, or whether they even care (spoiler alert: most don’t, especially on social media). i’m not telling anyone what to do or how to be. only what anyone can do

it is possible to enjoy doing a thing and have that be enough, without being discouraged because “not enough other people care about it.” i know because i used to get stressed about the same shit. coming to terms with the fact that 99.9999% of people on the planet just don’t care about you or anything you do might be tough, but once you get to “well i don’t really care about 99.9999% of people on the planet either” it gets easier

it’s not the hobby you enjoyed, it was the fake validation from internet randos
if your joy in life is dependent on social media likes, then you’re in for a bad time

yea, stupid that the line only go up mentality means it doesn’t matter how many great titles you released, one single turd release and you’re finished

- Comment on Stress 2 months ago:
yea, a friend of mine from high school went through all of it and became a general surgeon. and i’ve heard stories. that and my experience from dating and living with a CFer lung transplant patient probably gave me as much of an “outsider’s view” of the medical/hospital industry as one could possibly have
the MD=pedestal thing died for me long ago
i know i’m not talking about the “point” of the post. don’t care.
- Comment on Stress 2 months ago:
it’s not encouraging to think of someone being in med school and not reading the course description before signing up. if there was no course description that’s almost even worse
- Comment on Be happy if you woke up today and your throat didn’t hurt. 2 months ago:
we don’t think about the things that are going fine, only current problems. the marketing/advertising industry exploits this human tendency to the utmost, not only for your actual current problems, but problems you didn’t even know you had until they told you that you need to buy their solution for it
- Comment on I hate that that happens 2 months ago:
english is dumb. why do we say “hands,” but we don’t say “foots”? why does “goose” become “geese,” but “moose” doesn’t become “meese”? why is “led” the past tense of “lead,” but “red” is not the past tense of “read”? why don’t “good” and “food” rhyme? LIGHT becomes LIT, fight becomes FOUGHT. peek becomes peeked, seek becomes SOUGHT
i could do this all day, but i won’t

- Comment on Are 'micro-apartments' converted from offices the answer to the housing crisis? 2 months ago:
instead of “tenants” i should have said “badly run businesses that nevertheless have tons of capital to blow on office space”
- Comment on Are 'micro-apartments' converted from offices the answer to the housing crisis? 2 months ago:
how slum lord flats are the solution here
they’re a solution for building owners who can’t find tenants to lease their office space to. they don’t actually care about the peasants who can’t find affordable homes
