Biden wants to send another $50 Billion to Ukraine while parents of newborn babies can't find formula or afford it. The stock market is crashing. The crypto market won't stop dropping. I'm watching my money disappear in real time because I bought into the HODL meme. I can barely afford to buy groceries so I've been eating crappy fast food meal deals for the past 2 weeks and obviously got digestive problems because of it.

My hours at work are getting cut because of supply chain issues and I'm afraid I won't have a job by the end of the year because the temp workers may replace me and 11 other full-time employees because the owners of my company are talking about serious cutbacks and layoffs.

It's gonna be over for me soon. I don't know how much longer I can keep my head above water but I've been struggling my whole life - not just as an adult. I'm extremely stressed out and tired of everything. I don't even have the energy to get angry - I just laugh nervously because I honestly don't know what to do anymore.

No family. No friends. No woman. No car. I don't have anything except my crappy apartment and my job.

Oh boo fucking hoo. Welcome to life as a guy, you're disposable, easily replaced and nobody gives a fuck about you because the family has been destroyed. We don't know how to put family first because our parents never taught us. So until things change you're on your own.

To become a man today is to not care about being alone. Very few men have to luxury of not having to develop this mindset, and it makes them weak yet generally wealthy. You and the majority of men do not have that luxury.

Literally nothing bothers me like it used to. You just learn to tell yourself whatever you need to in order to get to the next day, week, month, checkpoint,.... Whatever. When COVID first emptied shelves I bought newspaper to wipe my ass with and stocked up on sauerkraut and any protein I could find. I didn't shop for 3mo that and lost enough weight to feel amazing. Everyone was freaking out and I knew I was good. To see how easy it was for me while it was so hard for most made everything worth it.

Other people should envy you. You don't have much to lose and others will lose so much in the coming years. Stick around and enjoy the show and never feel bad for anyone else, you've paid your dues in full all the way.
