I wish I could see fog almost every day and night. It is just so....can I say it? Cozy!

I would love for a quiet foggy Saturday night all by myself! I suppose the grass is always greener.

You eventually get sick of it, plus it's cold and when you MUST to go outside to do stuff is a pain in the ass

Same! My first emotion upon seeing this was "oh god, I would love that kind of solitude"...

You should read some Sartre

Oh, that sounds amazing.

No one's life has inherent meaning friend. You have to give it meaning, even if it is only meaningful to you.

Why cant it be just living?

That is a nice photo, without you I would not have seen it, it has meaning.

Keep taking photos, it is nice to have and look back and see either your good memories, or sometimes you need bad memories to see how far you have come.

But it has beauty, which might be better.

mahn fog is the best weather that existsssss. its like a cloud has come down and decided to visit!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 15 hours ago

Are your shoes outside on a balcony? Don't they get wet? If it fogs where you are, I assume condensation would form on the ground outside most nights.

I don't have much to offer. If it were me I'd find a broken gadget and try to fix it.

That said, looking at your username you might enjoy parsing this video to see if you can find it :)

Nihilism is a common and valid solution to the four big life crisis points. Enjoy. :)

I've the same philosophy.

What I found helpful is, I can get into a flow of busy work that can last weeks. Schedule stuff, deadlines, etc.

That's a few weeks without disgust.

What do you want of your life?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 16 hours ago

Is that a lil' cold plunge I see?

Oh, you again! Still complaining about your life but not prepared to do anything to make it better?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

I've done enough. Not my fault if the world rejected me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

So, still not prepared to do anything to make your life better, then. Gotcha.

Check out Platypus's post history. He/she is just looking to wallow in self-pity.
