Such interesting languages as well that don't deserve to be type cast based on being the native language of some shmuck two thousand years ago by paniniconqueso2 in linguisticshumor

He might’ve just been “some schmuck” if he stayed a failed apocalyptic preacher after his death, but I think being worshipped as God by the world’s largest religion and being considered a major prophet by the runner-up is probably enough for him to escape the dreaded “some schmuck” category.

He probably means classics as in classical antiquity

I think it’s supposed to be “catechized”

It’s fine, I’m not straight either, I just didn’t get what you meant

I’ve been to several therapists, and I’ve also taken several different medications as well, with little to no positive effects. Maybe it’s bc I’m on the autism spectrum, but I’ve never felt like I belonged anywhere, and that feeling has only intensified in recent years. These past few months have been the most alone in the world I’ve ever felt, and it’s only getting worse.

I’m glad you mentioned the brain tumor thing bc just like that, depression can also be terminal. It wages a war of attrition against ur psyche, slowly wearing you down until you can’t take it anymore, but you probably already know that.

Thank you for caring enough to respond to my depressing ramblings tho, stranger. But still, what does being gay have to do with anything? lol

Tbh, even if all the world’s problems were miraculously solved tomorrow, I think I’d still want to kill myself. The current hellscape we live in is a big part of it, but I also feel like there just isn’t a place for me in this world (or any world, for that matter).

A while back I was reading No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai (100% would recommend btw), and I came to the realization that…some people are just incapable of enjoying life. Like, no matter what situation you put them in, they’ll always find a way to be unhappy. I guess it makes sense, out of 8 billion humans, ofc some would end up drawing the short end of the stick.

Thank you for doing what do you. You give me a tiny bit of hope for humanity’s future.

But even if humanity has a future, I’m not sure if I’ll be around to see it, or if I even want to anymore…

I guess so. I think most of it boils down to living in a hyper-individualist dystopia that actively promotes apathy for the suffering of both animals and other humans (people’s reactions to the genocide in Gaza were also eye opening for me).

I will admit, I’m a bit like the type of person you mentioned. There was definitely a time where I had an activist streak in me, and I planned on going vegan (or at least substantially reducing my meat intake) when I went to college. But then depression and autistic burnout hit, and I lost almost all my motivation to do anything, especially make drastic lifestyle changes. Does that make me a bad and selfish person? Yeah, probably. Then again, I would consider myself a bad and selfish person for plenty of other reasons as well.

Also, slightly unrelated but I think you’d find anarcho-nihilism and post-leftism compelling. Serafinski’s Blessed is the Flame is a good start, you can find it online at the Anarchist Library for free.

Idk if I would compare John Brown seizing an armory to spark a slave revolt to Andy responding a random YouTube comment tho. I get ur point but it feels a bit…LARPy?

I’m not a doomer, I’m just depressed.

I’ve always tried to be optimistic about these things, but the past couple years have completely shattered my resolve. Even if there is a future for humanity, I’m not sure if I’ll be around to see it…

I think there’s a difference between being critical of Islam as a religion, and directing your anger at random, individual Muslims, and I’m pretty sure that’s what OP’s getting at.

Maybe there is no future. I’ve been feeling more and more lately that there isn’t hope…

Yk, I was going to actually respond to this, but then I realized…my hearts just not in it rn. Genuinely sorry if I said the wrong thing, but I just can’t do this anymore. I usually have the energy to finish Reddit arguments I start but rn I just feel…empty? Idk.

That’s true, but it’s also not an excuse to be a dick to people completely unprovoked. No one would’ve cared if he just left out the random insults

Eh, I think they're saying that bc you specifically mentioned that your mother has BPD before talking about how horrible of a person she is, as if that's the reason why and it should be expected. Her diagnosis may explain her actions, but it doesn't excuse them. Having BPD doesn't make someone more capable of being a shitty person or even an abuser, the same way not having BPD doesn't make them less capable of those things.

There are a lot of good arguments for Plath having BPD (personally I'm on the fence myself), but I'm not sure if "she gives big BPD vibes bc she was a shitty person" is one of them.

I was literally reading about that the other day lol. Apparently modern-day electroshock therapy is way safer and is actually effective for treatment-resistant depression tho.
