Can’t poke holes in your logic there. It just feels like every day is mediocre and the world isn’t exactly conducive to positive change, whether on a large scale or smaller, personal scale.
Feels like proper in-person socialization has been obliterated in favor of Discord, TikTok, Insta, Reddit and of course, work, sleep, family. The internet used to be fun and interesting imo, when life sucked, it was an escape. Now it’s just anger, engagement bait, ads, bots, scams, etc., all centralized to a few shitty platforms.
I won’t be takin’ the long nap anytime soon unless something catastrophic happens lol, but damn it’d be nice to literally hibernate through this shit the world seems to be going through because I certainly seem entirely powerless to change it or myself for the better.
I can't really poke holes in your logic either lol. All I can say is that you might benefit from carving out your own corner of the world. Maybe pick up a hobby and/or find a niche corner of the internet. Either way gl with the job hunt and all that.
