yeah but i still wouldn't say that these people, despite their appreciation for a life without starvation and poverty, will be happier than you are now.
like we can understand how shitty polio was but it doesn't make us happier.
i disagree you have no idea how humbled i am by the fact that i'm not tiptoeing around landmines right now

well i don't think you're wrong for being upset. i'm upset. i just think that because you are upset, you should feel compelled to break the cycle and stop having kids, and finish your life off.
though statistically, the main reason the reproduction rate is going down in first worlds in because they don't want to bring people into this messed up world, which is encouraging.
actually aria is like a cunt hair away from being an anti-natalist herself i don't want to speak for her, but i can just feel it in my bunions

also as far as the hedonic treadmill goes, i don't think people in the future—whose biggest worries will hopefully be what to wear the next day, or what kind of present to give your best friend for his birthday—i honestly don't think these people, while they may be unhappy about trivial stuff, i don't think they will fail to appreciate that their problems are indeed trivial compared to poverty and starvation
i have perspective enough to know that, despite my shit life, things could be a lot shittier, and i yearn for future generations to have a life where all they have to complain about is frivolity
i WANT that

yeah, revert to nonexistence
death
one of his two options was reverft to nonexistence
yeah, i interpret that as death not necessarily suicide, but doing what you need to do on this planet and then reverting to nonexistence (dying) when your time here is up—and hopefully the mark you made will have made the planet an ever so slightly better place to live in

so lets say i can picture it. i still don't believe we can achieve it, so nonexistence is still preferrable.
my position is that nonexistence is perfection—so we don't really disagree there beyond the semantics of it—but this isn't the thread for that discussion

i'm basing this all on my own experience therein lies the rub i don't want to condescend, but you clearly don't have a lot of perspective, but you seem somewhat aware of that

what other methods did you try
and i've talked to other canadians who share your thoughts so i don't think it's that.
networking, making connections with people, befriending people who have relatives in some industry, physically asking people if i can work for them, etc. shit doesn't work for everyone bro—maybe if you keep hearing about it, it's not as easy as you think, and it's actually an endemic, nationwide problem that you're having an annoyingly glib attitude about that's not something i can picture. class said it better than i did.
i can't picture it either, but you just need to have a consistent and robust definition of "perfection"

Maybe we need another World War without nukes coming into play
does this avatar mean you're playing botw
The job I'm about to get will hopefully let me get my PC upgrade first, along with that, while also paying for some school.
I just find it cute
No, you're not allowed to play it on PC
The "along with that" meaning getting the Switch, sorry. But I might wait a bit more because I can't really justify an entire system on one game. HOWEVER Fire Emblem is coming to the Switch, so my tone might change after E3.
Stay tuned~
okay good i was prepared to end my friendship with you for a second there

i don't want to exist in a perfect reality because it would be boring.
oh fuck off with this no, a perfect reality wouldn't be boring, because then it wouldn't be perfect

then maybe you are all doing something wrong. maybe filling applications out is the wrong way to go about it. 100 applications over the course of a year and you don't think i've tried other methods my whole stance is built upon my completely opposite experience with the job markets than everyone i talk to online. i don't believe it. i got extremely lucky... 4 times? 5 times? over the span of a year? sorry, there's something you aren't telling me. maybe it's just the fact that guys in the physical labour line of work prefer the personal conversation to the written application, idk.
i've gotten my friends jobs literally no problem too so idk what's going on here. that's what i'm asking from you.
i don't fucking know dude, maybe it's a canadian thing

Every job. Really. Every job?
Every job.
consider the possibility that you're a very fortunate person
Haven't you admitted to not wanting to work in physical labour?
just because i don't want to doesn't mean i haven't tried 20 or 30 times anyway
jobs aren't about what you want
define "tried"
i'm genuinely convinced you're all doing something wrong here. i've had no problem getting myself and my friends jobs. my first real job i literally just walked up to the guy and asked him if i could work for him.
filing several applications over short periods of time whenever, AKA how it works for most people i've submitted over 100 applications before i landed a single job no offense i really couldn't care less about your personal anecdotes on this issue, it doesn't change the fact that jobs on the whole are far too difficult to get for the majority of young people out of high school—and the ones we do get are so miserable and soul-sucking they induce suicidal thoughts most people can't just ask—you got EXTREMELY lucky and you need to understand this

not what I was referring to
didnt we just have an e3 lmao
they announced dishonored 2 and all that either you're wrong, you were being unclear, or you're on drugs
I thought dishonored 2 was announced at e3
I was wrong (woah this must sound like mandarin to you)
instead of further muddling understanding by saying "dishonored 2 was announced 24 months ago" (which, since I thought it was announced at E3, leads to the conclusion that it was announced at the 2015 E3) you could have just said "it wasn't announced at E3"
not difficult stuff
what's "not difficult stuff" is that i've been saying that dishonered 2 was announced two years ago at E3 2015 three or four times now

the generation after Z would all be like, 0-2 years old right about now
and their parents are degenerate teenagers
generation after z starts at 2010 iirc
so seven would be the oldest, which is more than enough time to indicate some things, at least.
seems a bit late citing wikipedia: "As with past generations, there are no agreed upon dates for when the Gen Z cohort starts or ends by demographers and researchers; therefore starting birth years range from the mid-1990s to early 2000s, and as of yet there is little consensus about ending birth years." ender would be gen z
