I genuinely think dying young is better than getting old

I’m 35 years old
Normies have rejected me for what is likely half my life now
I’ve played by their rules to fit in but never did. Women would invite sex but never a relationship because I’m not like them

At some point you have to realise you’ve wasted time and its time to stop doing that and just do whatever the fuck you want

>>717072124 (OP)
Why should i feel ashamed for playing videogames at my 70's? If i can play vidya at that age it means that none fucked up disease ruined my brain and i can still do cognitive complex tasks such as completing nigger souls one thousand in rape murder difficulty, most 70 years old walking corpses cant even talk.

The sheer amount of old people, alone or at home, right now that have no hobbies, no interests, that otherwise just sit around all day mindlessly watching television while they wait to die is both horrifying and sad.
My dad is "on his way out" and he never cultivated any kind of sit-down hobby or personal interest (I tried) either and it's just the same: all he wants to do is watch news feeds.

>>717077989
I'd like to add that since gen y and z won't be able to afford retirement homes and most of them won't have kids or relatives, they'll live in some affordable shared housing where many old timers will tend to each other however they can. Think of retirement homes, but without nurses and legal protection. Maybe there will be tabletop and multiplayer gaming if your roommates' health allows. Early dementia will make it impossible to play games for a lot of people. The problem about retirement homes is that people in the future may work well into their 70s. How are you going to retirement shared housing if you aren't retired? The future of Wal-Mart greeters and dementia zombies awaits. At least we aren't commies.

I mean, my grandparents smoked and drank all the time and still lived until their 70's and 80's.
However their last 2 years of life was enough to make me want to care about my health anyway. What's the point of 50 years of good life if your last 2 years are complete torture that make you wish for death every waking moment but your family and hospital manages to keep you alive for more torture. I'd agree with your thinking if you were serious about killing yourself as soon as health problems popped up, but I wouldn't have the balls to do it.

I still drink mind you, but moderately just to get a buzz every Friday evening, I never get completely shitfaced. I've seen what liver failure does to people and it's not pretty.

You are coping and I mean it. Shitty achievements and special experiences and crap will not save you from getting old and dying. Do you understand what I am saying anons? No one can save you. Not even normalfag cope.

>You don't want to get old like this bros playing video games in your 70s holed up in your room
true
that's why i'll be killing myself when i'll hit 33

>>717079297
They fail at easy mode.

>>717079025
Maybe it seems like it now, but our world won't be the same as it was for our grandparents. We have serious medical problems emerging such as iPad kids developing childhood dementia. What will happen when 40+ year olds get dementia at height of their careers? 20 and 30 somethings now get heart attacks, teenagers get diagnosed with arthritis. The Western societies are built upon standards that won't be maintained for much longer.

>>717079452
Anime is a coping mechanism for porn addicts and men with weak confidence.

>>717079452
Normalfag cope actually makes them forget about it. Then when the time comes they probably think they'll go to heaven o algo. Normies are utterly disgusting and repulsive creatures, literally just a NPC

>>717079537

They're in their 60s fucking miserable over their failed marriages/relationships/shitty careers they neglected and ill be surprised if they live to 80. Meanwhile he's got a daughter, even smoked until his 70s, looks the same as he did when I first met him 20 years ago, and is always happy whenever I see him.

You aren't overmasturbating are you?

What is with this phenomenon? How do they watch that shit? I get that all news are biased but everytime I got to the gym, Fox news seems especially more shit than the other screens. There's always some smug fucker sneering with a shit eat grin about Biden or something (yes, even up to now).

I agree, but they would still need the nurses. They'd be less likely to be neglected if the profit motivated owners of those places actually hired enough of them. Those places are always chronically understaffed by design.

And the worst part is that these old people drones are almost universally terrified of actually dying. Nothing sickens me more than old people being scared of death. How do you go 7+ decades without seriously reflecting on your own mortality or digging into information on the afterlife(hint: it's very obvious we persist after death and reincarnation is real to anyone who's ever done a lick of inquiry into the matter)

At 70 years old I'll be hitting the gym every day (no pussy shit bruh we injecting that T), while working a full time job on top of raising 2 kids. and when I get some free time I'll work on that rock opera idea I've had since I was 43.

You don't choose. You either learn what you need to learn or you get reincarnated against your will. My theory is that you get a glorified body if you reach the highest spiritual aptitude and a passport to explore other lands. Pretty sure earth is a quarantine zone for new souls to learn how to interact with matter properly, and we have to individually prove we aren't retarded animal brained retards that can be trusted not to shit up other realms.

The dude looks happy. I guess that's the real problem isn't it? Men finding ways to be happy without women, and that's bad. Men should be forced into relationships with demanding women who complaints about everything and can never be satisfied, as they keep sitting on social-media and compare their lives to other couples constantly. Yes, men should be unhappy and miserable their entire life, right?

Tom Cruise should make a new movie:
>Mission Impossible: Satisfy A Western White Woman
Not even Ethan Hunt will be able to complete that mission, because he's not tall enough.

Can you imagine what this guy lived through? He was in Japan during the Boom Years (tht's the Yakuza 0 era for those who need a vidya centric timeline), he probably has or had a wife, and he's spending his years playing the game he remembers from his youth. Even if none of this is true, the important thing is he's doing what he wants. The big question is more about Japan cutting services for the elderly in some areas and those without big fuck you jobs having enough money for comfort, but still its better than in the US by far in that they get medical care . There's also a big push for older people to get more benefits which is good. If this guy is hanging around playing Rance of his own accord so much the better for him.

>>717075593
I'm lucky my father is in his late 70s (almost the same age as the idiot in the white house) and he still plays games. He's been playing WoW off and on since Burning Crusade when I introduced it to him. He always plays DPS classes and doesn't do anything more than general questing, but he enjoys it. He's also an incredibly skilled woodworker and handiman; he's still working in a professional field (as in you need a doctorate for it which he has). This doesn't mean he doesn't do "old people stuff" though like he watches NCIS constantly (I taught him how to set up Kodi so he has every episode of every series whenever he wants) but he's got a military officer background and the protags of those shows are older so I kinda get it. I'm glad he's doing as well as he is - I'm a 40 year old on (golden, for murrika standards) disability sadly, so I know what its like to "feel old" before your time. Honestly if I didn't have a youth of women, relationships etc... to look back on I would probably be in a much worse place, but I try to help out those who end up down the wrong path, be they older or younger.

There is no dignity in being old no matter what you do. There is no dignity in being geriatric. When you are young you come up with bullshit, who you will be, how you will be seen, you think you will be respected or something, the truth is you're just old and it does not matter.

Did your public education school consist of multiple conflicting teachers, as well as no way to track your progress until the very end?
No?
It's because that's an ass backward way to educate someone.
Doesn't make any sense.

>>717090138
Because Fox has spent 30 fucking years figuring out how to ensnare people, especially fearful old people an then make them MORE scared. It doesn't help that especially when people have brain damage and other forms of degeneration, they become more fearful and open to this sort of propaganda. There are lots of

It can sometimes literally be brain damage and exploitative shit. Same as social media in its way.

Even if that was true, the end of the Fairness Doctrine and before that the idea of News as a public service loss leader (and thereby non politicized. The Cronkite days for instance, but even people who came later and saw the degradation like Dan Rather or Peter Jennings, who grew up working for the old way broadcast news was done and saw how things have fallen so far) the creation of the 24 hour news cycle, along with a fuckload of other issues politically and otherwise (AM Radio shit like Rush Limbaugh etc), contributed to this stuff in a major way. It was an intentional exploitation on behalf of the Murdoch media empire, Sinclair (owning a ton of local affiliates) and way more.

Much like how Facebook and Twitter were designed for "engagement" over "truth" or "sane discourse", the same was true of Fox News. Sure exposing anyone to it was an issue, but the issues of NPR educated people having brain degeneration of one kind or another that lead to a growing amygdala and constant fear about the world (that's ontop of the fear about growing older and the US issue of basically flushing people away to live the rest of their lives in minimum support care homes , if that) can turn people who were once not as fucked, into slavering drones ready to pick up Fox's message (or Trump, or Alex Jones or anything else) tailor made for them at the best of time and now totally susceptible with brain damage.

For a vidya comparison, its a bit like how the gacha faggotry has grown for something that
>Americans would never go for that! Why would they ever pay for a fraction of a chance to get what they want when there are games that give you all the content up front or for standardized subscriptions
but now it grows even faster because they gacha (and before that item mall, lootbox, mobile etc) types hired psychologists to best figure out how to figure out and hook the addicts, like a casino. The whales are often those with mental issues

I wouldnt say that it sickens me that they are afraid, but it does piss me off when old people start to get grumpy. Like really? You haven't gotten to terms with your mortality yet? What exactly have you been doing or thinking for the last decades?! Just brainless existing like an animal or how can you still get grumpy over getting old?

>>717096290
this is what happens when you mock religion for so long. my grandparents are old hippie boomers who always mocked churches and it's scary as fuck for them now they are 80+. my grandma told me her grandparents had all their friends and friends kids around them happy that they were going to see God and they passed peacefully and fulfilled. my grandpa just struggled in a hospital bed until he had a stroke and my grandma begged the doctors to do everything to save him no matter how painful or futile. this is the end awaiting all atheists.

>>717104967
yeah I'm honestly so glad that I found Godagain (I only fell off as a teenager for a while). What on earth is even the point of living without God, there is none. I sometimes hear twitch streamers say that they are atheists and life is aesome because nothing matters anyway and I just think: insane. If you have a choice between believing that you have a purpose and believing that nothing matters, why on EARTH would you ever pick a belief where your life is meaningless and pointless garbage and you'll die like a useless dog. Dont you dare tell me that they rae just soooo principled atheists and it's because of a lack of "proof". Rofl no, that's not it for these people.

I'm planning to kms. I tried several years of going to psychologists and whatnot and it didn't change anything and only increased my desire to kms. Not a woe is me thing. Just factual. I see no reason to prolong it for much longer.
