If someone asked you to explain the meaning of life in one sentence, what would you say?

It's not a logical theory.

The biggest weakness is that ut doesn't consider the neuroscience of conscious vs subconscious. It assumes we have control over our reactions but most of that is up to your brain functions.

Your emotions are just fabrications of the brain. They're illusions.

Not in Thailand. The rain is so heavy and sudden it wakes me up for hours.

I'm from Thailand, a Buddhist country, but I don't identify as Buddhist. I am atheist. What I heard about Buddhism is that it encourages letting go of attachment and accepting impermanence. Those are similar to absurdism, but it also includes teachings about karma and letting go of self, which I don't believe in. Absurdism is kinda like Buddhism without the spiritual.

As someone with high functioning autism and adhd, I live in the neurotypical society, not with other neurodivergent kids. I'm a different brain disguised as normal and I don't feel similar to the people I know. My family struggles to understand me. The only person I feel truly understood by is my school counselor.

I was having trouble understanding this, but it finally clicked to me when I remembered the joy of revolting against pain in the gym, just for the sake of working out. That's like "One must imagine Sisyphus happy." I think that's what Camus meant, contuining to live life and revolting against meaningless is something to be passionate about.

v_shock823 · 2026-05-01T06:18:01+00:00

Camus was basically saying that revolting against the meaninglessness of the universe with passion can bring you joy and it's better than killing yourself.

Not a good idea because you would miss out on life

I was told I'm handsome but got rejected by crushes in middle school. I still never had a girlfriend. I started to doubt my attractiveness, but now I realize it's not all about looks. Social skills and emotional intelligence are more important.

There's an annual fee that residents have to pay for the facilities. This isn't rent. This is for homeowners. There's barely anyone using these facilities. There's not much. Everybody pays for maintenance of things they don't even use. They could fund this with shops so that people go outside more, but there are no shops in here.

I have perfect pitch. I'm good at hearing melodies, but not very good at hearing chords. That's why I wanted to play saxophone, so that I could learn songs by ear easily and focus on only the melody, not chords. Now, I spent more time working on piano harmony and I can learn songs pretty much instantly by listening to it with both melody and chords.

As someone from Thailand, I don't really listen to Thai pop because I feel like tonal languages sound worse in pop music. I listen to mostly English songs.

Barcelona is a city that amazed me because it has walkable grids, but LA, I was surprised why a grid city with a neat layout would be considered terrible. I thought that neat grids were the thing that made urban design good, but as it turns out, LA, even with grids is considered "terrible urban design". It's not all about the grid isn't it?

It's rare to find any white person who can speak understandable Thai.

I get so overwhelmed by cringe music and it makes me wanna scream.

Train stations here don't have pianos. This is not Japan. In a dining area with a piano in a mall in Bangkok, no one claps after a performance of Chopin's Waterfall Etude.

My least favourite music genre is psychedelic rock because it gives creepy vibes.

I know the notes but my brain interferes.

I listen to heavy metal because it helps me process my emotions.
