>>811866This parody sounds more sad than the original
>>779711I genuinely might be going schizo, everytime i go outside my cranium is pestered with advertisements. Everything requires me being treated like complete cattle. I walk the streets trying to enjoy the city only for me to see ad after ad after ad. Be they obvious or just a logo wherever the fuck the particular corpo wants it to be. In nature I find some peace, but even that is interrupted by the suburban hellscapes and the constantly worsening climate. The new normal is that there are entire weeks where hiking is not possible due to the fact it is dangerous(not uncomfortable) to go out into nature. More and more sandy desert, less and less forests.
I cannot go into shopping centers without getting nauseous from the amount of slop that is everywhere. The product has gone from being a thing to being a promise, which of course is just a pornographic dream of whatever image the corpo wants to sell.
I try and use the web, personal stuff, banking, you know? The type of stuff that should've become much better to use with the advent of the web. Only for google to constantly rape my eyes with reminders that I should add X, add Y, add MFA which is already there, but now they want an email too. I just want to use one secure password for the service, why the fuck do I need to have multiple fail safes just because the requirements for a strong password are comically underwhelming.
I try to use my bank, only for it to require me to use my login password after I already logged in just to view some info. Any kind of usage of anything just seems so alien to me. I already have an awful relationship with having any meaningful emotional attachment, and now that too is going away little by little.
I look at people too, and they just seem like cattle to me, majority at least. And not in a way that is "oh man Im such a cool as fucking commie them libs are stopid sheeple", but more so "what the fuck are you do you mean kobe" way. How can people actually accept this? In a casual manner where every single service that surrounds them is both shit to use and shit to the user.
I am lonely, I want to cry because I simply cannot attach myself to anything. Due to my constant moving I have never formed meaningful relationships, I dont have an org, and in the future half decade Im unlikely to have the chance to participate in one. I do read theory, and I support anyone in organizing, be they even Marxist-Trotskyist-Maoist or whatever the fuck. But I am outside, not in the circle.
My enjoyment of life has diminished so much that I practically do not know when was the last time I was actually happy. Not just enjoying the moment or giggling, but actually joyous. Nowadays I ponder that if anyone close to me dies, I might pretend to cry, but not truly be sad. I imagine my loved ones getting absolutely obliterated in front of me, but except for shock there are no emotions. I just want to feel things, not to just enjoy or savour, but to feel. To be sad, happy, and everything inbetween. To have some kind of attachment without it feeling artificial or like rape.
>>811950Take your bicycle
>>812257The criticism about advertising and MFA for banking is justified but everything else sounds like cliche whining about “it’s not cool like it used to be”
>>813444If you don't get the job the company has no reason to waste their time letting you know. Just try not to think about it once you submit something or do an interview, you can't impact what they decide.
>>813444If you are a fat woman, consider losing weight:
>>813350 >>813445But these were a non-profit organisations, I just expected a little more humanity from them. Woldnt think of it twice if these were standard corporate jobs, but here not even sending a rejection email? I just cant shake a feeling I did something wrong.
>>813448Non profits can be just as bad as corpo jobs or worse. They take advantage of people willing to break their backs for a social good, and use them up and spit them out (not all, but many).
You shouldn't expect any special humanity from them, they are still staffed by the same kind of evil HR people as other jobs
>>813448Also I'm sure they didn't intentionally not send an email just to fuck with you, they just didn't get round to it, or forgot or whatever, it's not about you
whose watching the eclipse omg
>>813720couldne't see shit

>>813460This. I’m fact I hear a lot of NPOs have the bosses pocketing the money
3 years ago, after collage, I moved to a new place in hopes of finding employnment in my field. Failed, got stuck in a dead end shit job for two years, left to find something better, and now I am almost a year unemployed. Over time I just kept lowering and lowering my requirements, and it doesnt matter, nobody is hiring me. My saving are finally running dry. I do t know what to do. I wish I didnt have parents so I could just kill myself.
Ill have to make a fake CV, get rid of my degree from it, make some warehouse job up instead, so I can get hired for some manual labour, if that. I wish I could at least find something part time, but those are all taken by students.
3 years of my life wasted, life savings gone, and all I achieved is becoming unemployable. I am thinking of moving back to my parents but what would I do there? I cant find job in a region with lowest unemplyment in a country, in my rural village Ill be fucked forever.
>>814017time to leave the country, for better pastures.
Losing my fucking mind.
>>814017Whose the handsome hunk in the pic you posted? And what did you study for in college?
Also, part time work is taken by students because they have to pay their way
>>814020This. There’s a reason why emigration has always been a thing
>>814069Isn't that Johan Liebert from the Monster anime/manga? He's the main villain in the story I think.
>>814067Dont tell its going to be fine, why would it be fine, I thought it would, it has no reason not to be I mean how much could I possibly fuck up, people like me arent supposed to fall this low, and yet here we are.
>>814069Psychology. I already wrote about it here, this whole thread is littered by my blogposts.
Today while job searching I got a panic attack, hyperventilating, started crying. I see no way out. Why do other people manage to do fine and I fail at everything?
I'm 28 years old and have never cooked anything more complex than a hamburger. I basically subsist off Doordash and Soylent. I'm surprised I made it so far tbh.
>>814089What kind of hamburgers do you make?
>>814092Salted and peppered beef on a bun.
>>814086>Psychology. I already wrote about it here, this whole thread is littered by my blogposts. Ahhh. No offense but, why did you expect any job openings for that degree? They’re not as in demand as for engineering or medicine.
>Today while job searching I got a panic attack, hyperventilating, started crying. I see no way out. Why do other people manage to do fine and I fail at everything?There’s always gonna be a minority of people that have everything flop for them no matter what they do.
>>814181>Ahhh. No offense but, why did you expect any job openings for that degree?Why wouldnt I, other people managed it. I thought I could too.
>There’s always gonna be a minority of people that have everything flop for them no matter what they do.Yeah, and I would like to cease to be member of that minority.
>>814654Cute.
>>814086>future psychologist has panic attacksincredibly in character, also not getting a job has nothing to do with personal failure you moron,I swear even "leftists" end up believing in karmic nonsense when their life doesn't go well.
>>814655>other people managed itlook up survivorship bias
>>814655>Why wouldnt I, other people managed it. I thought I could too.Those people are a minority
>>814660>incredibly in character, also not getting a job has nothing to do with personal failure you moron,I swear even "leftists" end up believing in karmic nonsense when their life doesn't go well.Well, people on here think not getting a gf is a sign of personal failure and will blame electronics or lack of peer pressure.
>look up survivorship biasThis
>>815003the problem is that the whole web sucks nowadays. sponsors and big tech have ruined every facet of what made it special and so unique. there's no more creativity, no more human interaction (even back a decade ago most of internet traffic was bots, if anything you're arguing with them daily today), no strive for anything that doesn't give you any sort of profit, no matter how minimal it is. going online and making things used to be a hobby, now its just soulless garbage and get rich quick schemes. capitalism ruining everything that's fun.
>>815035yes very true and I have nothing to add other than I didn't want to circlejerk and thus didn't want to reply but also I felt compelled to give you a response nevertheless.
I once had a coworker, over 10 years ago now, who had told me that for $14,000 I could help get one of his female cousins cross over the border from Mexico. Now obviously he mentioned that as a means to acquire myself a woman but I wondered how that would work out? I mean I lived and continue to live with my parents and what if she ended up not liking me? I suppose in a situation like that if you lay down the cash you've bought most of her affection for you and considering her situation she would've just accepted at least for a bit until she could get her life in order and she decided to leave me. Hmm I wonder?
lol I'm starting to have anxiety attacks at the prospect of the work day, it's so pathetic. i can barely stand working any more and my productivity goes down every day
worst part is that if I get fired or quit nothing terrible will happen, I have a roof and family, but I am not sure I'd ever recover from that setback, I lucked out majorly into this current job, where I can still get stuff done despite being completely dysfunctional, but now even that is slipping away…
