But I just woke up and this is literally the first meme I’ve seen today :(
Quit while you’re ahead, maybe?
Clearly not enough
But this is lemmy. Without fear mongering, there would be little content to share here.
wanna see my guitar?
Sure! I’ve got a few basses as well.
But what if I miss something really horrible that will make me feel bad?!
I still upvoted but I feel like making this the top post misses the point.
*deep breaths*

Giving me some Redwall vibes
Man, my 80 year-old parents, whose only income comes from DoorDash had their car die this week, on top of their furnace and A/C going out.
And we live in the US, where no one gives a fuck about the elderly.
So, respectfully, I’m not feeling particularly optimistic. The thousands I’m going to have to spend to keep them alive is going to add years of work before I can retire, and that’s just the reality of living in this shitty, goddamn capitalist hellhole.
At least like four people will get to be even more disgustingly rich, though. Yay. Vote Biden and Trump, friends.
I’m sorry to hear that
I think the point is not “don’t care about bad things happening in your life,” it’s, rather, “don’t get so upset about the bad things happening everywhere else first thing in the morning.”
And we live in the US, where no one gives a fuck about the elderly.
36 cents of every U.S. tax dollar goes to social security and medicare. The elderly being the primary beneficiaries of these social programs. That’s before we start talking about senior discounts, rent controlled age restricted communities, and a long list of other state, county and city programs designed to benefit the elderly.
I’m sorry to hear about your parents struggling. But stating pure lies is unacceptable.

I can hear your empathy dripping off the screen. Thank you so much.
I accept that your parents are struggling, I accept that you are hurting because of this. I whole heartedly accept the reality you’re living in and empathize and sympathize with it. If that’s what you need right now focus on that.
Thank you.

Now get the fuck out of my pantry or I will start using glue traps.
I need a big print of this hanging by my pond. It is so calming.
Thanks @DDC_DUMP
Just a few more scrolls…
This was literally the first post I saw, but alrighty.
Same for me but that doesn’t make it untrue
It was my third, but maybe I should take the evening off
