Books to cope with being a wageslave?

>>24791806 (OP)
There isn't one. Work a lot and live with your parents to save as much money as you can, so instead of buying consumerist slop, you can buy yourself a time to actually enjoy life while having some saved money, so you don't have to worry constantly.
At least that's what I'm doing

I pay a portion of the rent to my mom to live in her apartment. My job is high stress and low pay but I'm able to spend some money on stuff that makes me happy (thc gummies, books, etc). I'd love to have a job that was either low stress or had a livable salary but whatever. I'm a loser.

Become catholic so you can be a metaphysical cuck too.

>Many men will never have children
>Those that do will struggle to care for them in a society where dual income is the standard

if you have no life you should look into overnight work like lot security or hotel front desk. usually pays 5+ dollars an hour more to start than equivalent jobs during the day and it's insanely easy.

Most of bukowski's books are basically about this exact thing

You should look into the works of Maïnlander and Hegesias of Cyrene.

I like how everything in this ancient screenshot is now obsolete thanks to the current administration and HR roasties infecting more of the job market. At this point if you told a psychiatrist you were raped and they were female, they'd just laugh at you and prescribe breathing exercises.

How?

>>24792038
a simple /nightwalk/ is great when you're unemployed

>>24791810
>time to actually enjoy life
Why wouldn't you just do that instead?

>>24792294
because work drains every bit of joy out of me and the thought of going there back tomorrow is terrifying

>>24792294
because i am obligated to be somewhere i hate for 40 hours per week.

>>24791806 (OP)
man work really sucks, but not working can really suck as well. i guess you gotta find a place where you can coast a little, where you feel like you are getting a little too good of a deal

I work 30 hours a week, feels good man
Makes all the difference when you're working a dead end job and investing 80% of your paycheck

>Is the elimination of the technological system
worth all of the desperate risks and terrifying disasters that it will entail?
If you don't have the courage to answer "yes" to that question, then you'd
better quit whining about the evils and hardships of the modern world
and just adapt yourself to them as best you can, because nothing short of
the collapse of the system will ever get us off the road that we are on now
Instead of coping, try to fight the system that enslaved you in the first place

If you do that more than a day a week I'd stop that, that's a real stealth motivation killer

>>24791825 Life was much harder for people 200+ years ago. If you can't succeed now, just shoot yourself and stop being an oxygen thief. Thanks.

sorry to newfag it up but does wageslave denote a very low wage? or anyone that must use their body to labor or go into an office even if well paid is still a wageslave?

>>24791806 (OP)
Fantasy/sci-fi slop

>>24791806 (OP)
My wagie job is pretty much just people watching all day and my core motivation is just to have material for my novel since I have no other human interactions in my life to draw from

No, you're expected to die, but when dying making the wealthy more money. They have been whispering this at their parties for decades. Telling their friends between child prostitutes how there are too many people on the planet and devising ways to thin the herd. Automation and AI is all they'll need. Only a few fleshy servants to kick around will be needed.

>>24792644
Automation and AI doesn't remove human labor. Do you think machines don't need materials, retard?

Finish reading it. They aren't trying to kill everyone, but they also want to take the population down by a few billion. They're perpetually afraid of revolution and the end of their fairytales of noble kings/wealth. Open your fucking eyes, boy.

>>24792622
Okay. We'll see.

>>24792644
Eventually the price of the robots is more than the price of the humans. It might be cheaper to have HR Stacy do scheduling than AI but they're living the bubble and still investing in this bizarre singularity where AI runs on hopes and kind words instead of coal and oil

>>24792659
Lol, you think a revolution wouldn't lead to mass death?
You are one stupid, white fucking retard.

Myth of Sisyphus. Wageslaving is a result of idolizing money. Passion is the highest value in a human being's life; reason is simply a guide

>>24791806 (OP)
You're just a weak-willed retard if those points apply to you.
