as ironic as it might seem given my mental health ▶ this video If you are able to make your childern happy ,that is what matters. My parents always provided for us but never fostered a happy household. Death will come for us eventually,happiness is what matters (I have learnt the hard way!!)
>I'm disappointed that you didn't actually think about my points, and instead decided to pick out one sentence... How do you know what I thought or didn't think? I quoted one sentence because that's what you do when you're replying to a specific part of someone's argument. Otherwise you end up like those people who quote a ten paragraph post, only to add 'I agree' at the end. >Opinions of others matter to most people, especially when espoused in public; that's just how it is... Well, that's their problem not mine. "Sticks and stones" and all that. I'm not sure what you're advocating for here? You [presumably] want free and open debate to exist. But no-one should say anything if it might offend someone else? Well, if that's the case then either: 1: We all rip our tongues out and cut off our typing fingers because anything we say that offers an opinion might potentially offend someone somewhere . or 2: People stay off that part of the intarwebs where free and open discussion takes place until they're quite sure that they can handle [gasp!] other people disagreeing with them or [double gasp!] thinking they're idiots. Seriously. If the only "meaningful relationship" in your life is with a piss-poor chatbot which agrees with everything you say or think and you can't deal with the actual real world, because it doesn't behave like that. Then that's your problem. Not mine. >I don't think your sense of what is and isn't appropriate is as well-calibrated as you think it is. I never use
Welcome to my world! I'm a pretty intelligent and talented at what I do guy. But I've never been able to make a success at anything I've tried. I'm in my mid fifties now and still just scraping by on the poverty line. Meantime I see people earning obscene amounts of money for things like opening boxes on YouTube or selling appallingly shit pixel art on the Blockchain. I don't [often] get depressed about it. I've come to accept the fact that luck is one virus to which I am completely immune and, if "all the world's a stage" then I've been assigned the part of 'third donkey from the left' rather than one of the starring roles my agent promised me. Who cares. We'll all be dead in 100 years time anyway. Even Jess Bezos, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerburg et al's billions won't buy their way out of that one! Or, to put it another way: ▶ this video
Ahh yes, the benefits of mass unemployment and businesses shuttering! Always look on the bright side of life! ▶ this video
