I don’t tell my coworkers my birthday because everyone makes a big deal out of it, or celebrates it.
But for me, I can no longer shake the thought of “goddamn, should I celebrate because I survived one more year, or celebrate because the likelihood of death has come that much closer.”
So it kind of makes me in a twisted mood on my birthday where I’d rather just like to eat and play video games uninterrupted. My first birthday being single is coming up so I don’t even get to do the usual joke to my ex “what no birthday blowjob?”
I don’t like birthdays. As a kid they were awesome until my dad decided those candles that don’t go out would be funny on my 13th. After that I realized birthday’s are just a stupid way of gauging our physical and mental capabilities. 20 years later and it feels the same
I live out of spite so I do birthdays. Join us on the spite side, we have cake.
What’s the deal with the candles that don’t go out? Not sure I understand.
This video by Kurzgesagt sorta changed my outlook on that exact feeling. Looking back things tend to be less dire and we process that as things being continually worse when it’s more of a case of rosy retrospection.
I’m hoping aliens invade so i can be a stowaway. I’ll bring some water and food to last a few days before getting the balls to make myself known when they leave the planet. They’ll either kill me or experiment on me. Either is fine with me as long as they don’t send me back. Just let me take a leak/shit real quick in whatever version of a toilet u got first please.
They’ll either kill me or experiment on me
Worse.
They’ll read you their awful poetry.
He forgot his towel as well shakes head
they’ll make you play wonderwall the whole trip, on a recorder.
First you think everyone is doing a horrible job running things. Then suddenly you get to run things, and do an even worse job.
… at least somebody told me that that’s how it went for somebody else.
First you think everyone is doing a horrible job running things.
Then suddenly you realize their goal was never to make the world better for you, and they’re doing a great job running things to achieve their goals
If I get to run things, things will be great - for me. Everyone else? Fuck you peasants, I’m in charge.
This was me in my last consulting project.
90% of the time I see the world “world run by” and “clowns” it’s transphobia, here’s to hoping it isnt the case this time
Hell no. Trans homies are my homies and i’ll change the pronouns of anyone who messes with them to was/were.
Well see the difference here is that the world is run by fucking clowns /s
I hope you’re doing ok.
