You've pretty much described my life. Mostly just me and my dogs. But I do still have to leave sometimes. :(
there's a reason my username is shortened from the Latin for "I want to leave". I don't necessarily want to die, I just don't want to be here anymore. Unfortunately for us both, leaving society as a whole without dying is rather difficult.
Lately, I've been rationalizing it as "I don't want to die, I want to WANT to live."
Still figuring out how to make it happen, but at least now I've got a catchy slogan for it
I feel like one of those Chinese bears they keep in concrete cages to milk for bile.
Therapy and a more positive outlook on life is not gonna solve my problems.
All therapy did for me was make me tired of talking. Sometimes things are just so fucked up there's no solution, yet we keep struggling like rats drowning in a bucket
"Stop the world, I wanna get off," is one of my favorite phrases.
You can, unless your teeth or something else becomes a health problem you can't fix.
That really is the most important thing stopping me even if there's but a small chance this will happen.
It's a game of luck, you could live to 90 if you go to a fertile area without extreme conditions.
I'm sure there's plenty of those people out there.
You obviously won't hear them or of them.
And you can get a disease while in society and still die because there is no cure.
✨ they already are ✨
2030 could be when a new teeth regrowing medicine comes on the market, have been following this for a few years now.
they should last you for a lifetime
