[QUOTE="Schwarzwald, post: 79910, member: 544"] Truly happy? In a sense, yeah. I don't rent. I have a job that actually engages my brain and doesn't make me want to eat a bullet, most days. Do I wish shit could be better? Obviously. I wish my parents were still alive. I wish I'd had better taste in women instead of whatever chaos algorithm picked for me. But relatively? I'm good. If I started demanding more out of life I'd just come off as a greedy fuck, and I'm not trying to be that guy. Pre industrial life does sound pretty kino though. You just lived. Meaning wasn't some side quest you had to grind on YouTube and therapy apps, it was baked in through the village, the same faces your whole life, shared values, and zero options to doomscroll what everyone else had. Modern timekeeping and atomization turned us into little disconnected units chasing purpose like it's the last hit of dopamine. That small village where your work actually mattered to the people around you? Yeah, we've lost that hard. Still, can't complain too much. Could be way worse. I'm not renting, the job doesn't suck, and the guillotine got replaced by det cord so at least the collapse will be efficient. Lol [ATTACH type="full"]16690[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
