So I went to my family’s annual July 4th party yesterday. Many relatives were absent, one due to his severe alcoholism. My grandma was there, her dementia is beginning to completely erode who she is, and my biological father stayed home and did nothing as he does now since my parents’ divorce. My kids had no cousins there to run around and play with because my brothers don’t want kids, and because of this my wife, kids, and I were engulfed by 8 or 9 other attendees. “Awh look at how big your kids are now anon” they’d say, while having no kids of their own to love and watch grow. My relatives are all aging and petty conflict has driven them all apart so many guests didn’t show at all. I found myself slamming beers when I wasn’t with my wife and kids because it was unbearable “catching up” with my other family members because they’re all so aged now and are in the decline of their lives. It all seemed so sad and hopeless. Many of them struggle with the same problems they’ve talked about for years and the stories are all the same. I recall a time when my parents were together and the entire neighborhood was buzzing with excitement and explosions from fireworks. We’d all go to the park to watch the city fireworks show. That time has come and gone. Now, it feels like I’m watching the slow-death of my once thriving family and all of our family traditions. Each year, the holiday parties are smaller. The advertisements for festivities at the local supermarkets even seem more worn out and tired than they used to and this seems to be the case for every holiday. Every year it is harder to continue the family holiday traditions of old. Anyone else have a similar experience? Aside from my wife and kids, our family seems very divided and dispersed - no sense of unity, and everyone is getting older. The ice cream is melted. The beer is flat and stale, the sun somehow seems more dim than yesterday, and I don’t know why exactly.
>>22901499 (OP)I stopped believing in 4th of July when I was sixteen
>>22901499 (OP)How can the "united nations" celebrate independence?
>>22901499 (OP)I just had a similar experience, yeah.
>>22901499 (OP)This is a very normal experience as you get older.
Having kids around alleviates it for some time, but in the end everything on this world is finite.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
>>22901499 (OP)You can thank the jews for that.
>>22901500In some ways I guess I did too but I always enjoyed being with my people on the holiday
>>22901501Yea the vaccine has been a great subject of turmoil in my family. Another thing to divide us I guess
>>22901503Share your story anon, if you don’t mind that is. What’s the state of your family? Do you recall better periods of time?
>>22901499 (OP)>it was unbearable “catching up” with my other family members because they’re all so aged now and are in the decline of their livesUnc, you're a grown ass man with wife and kids and you post on 4chan... you're not doing any better than them.
Yeah the social construct is dissolving
The trial period of judeocapitalism has ended goy
Time to be jewish cattle slaves now
Don't like the doomer theme but same thing going on with me.
I didn't have a place to go yesterday.
My parents didn't want to cook or do anything.
Thankfully my brother went a few states over to celebrate with his friends and had a good time.
I've grown to resent my parents especially my dad who inherited the family business for $1 and 30 years later nobody talks to each other.
I had a nice time, I made a big fuck off whip and called down the thunder
Also made a really springy kid whip, a tiny little masterpiece, that I handed out to the young ones
>>22901508But I am, really. I have been on 4chan for a long time, old habits I suppose. I have always enjoyed other perspectives which is why I still come here.
>>22901510My apologies for seeming doom and gloom. Sorry about your family situation though anon.
Want advice?
Get some cats. There are cats that live in shelters nobody wants, they need a loving home. You want to feel love? Have some cats imagine the love and joy you would feel if everybody brought their cats to your cook out celebration?
>>22901499 (OP)My neighborhood is weird as fuck now. It's still 100% white but everyone just seems off. I fully believe it is the vax. I hate going to my parents' house because my brother died there and it is just weird, but it is a paradox because I miss it at the same time; however, I am coming to terms more and more with the fact that those days, and times, the spirit of people... the shared joie de vivre... it's gone.
zuck

>>22901506Shout out and thanks to the Jews.
The 4th of July is not a holiday anymore because we are not America anymore. When I was born this country was like 80% white. I saw one Chinese person in town growing up and that's if you were either white or black.
You can't build a country out of random people.
>>22901513Cats spread diseases that make you gay and infertile. Don’t listen to this faggot.
>>22901508>grown ass manWell, you clearly are not.
Enjoy you nigger ball, anon.
>>22901505Niggers in human clothes. How quaint
>>22901499 (OP)Everyone is tired and paranoid because of the constant fearporn on their screens. Yet contradictory, they seek it out themselves. Money has become the greater 'good', so people seem to chase that and everything else is just an afterthought.
Also low T made men retreat from social activities.
>>22901499 (OP)I had the same observation. I heard 1 firework last night. My family went out and we were surprised to see everything was dead.
>>22901515You're too young to understand what you're talking about
lol

>>22901499 (OP)Man, its posts like this, makes me realise that there truly is no happy ending, single, married with kids, it doesn't matter. We all gonna die alone with sad stories to tell, unless we go full rambo mode, army of one style, go to south east asia, fuck and beach life 24/7 until we hopefully, blissfully die in our sleep aged 80.
