Lately I’ve had a really hard time finding pleasure in anything.
The world is such a depressing inhumane shit show at the moment. And I’m tired of being gaslit by every government from my local borough administration all the way to the federal government.
Capitalism and fascism had taken a hold on the world’s nations the likes of which we have never seen in the history of humankind.
And the worst part is I feel people have been indoctrinated to as point where we’re never gong to collectively get out of it. I don’t even think a violent revolution is possible because people are too fucking dumb to notice what’s wrong.
And the “fuck you, I got mine” attitude that capitalism has brought has ruined any chance of salvation. Empathy and solidarity are ridiculed as being some woke mind virus.
The world’s climate is beyond fucked. There’s wars and crimes against humanity being perpetrated by the Epstein class in our name. We keep electing wolves in sheep’s clothing who win our votes on fake promises to help us then turn against us and double down on policies that make life more difficult and increase our level of misery. Unless you’re a billionaire CEO or a politician, your life is absolutely worthless. You’re nothing more than a low value resource. And you don’t have freedom. Neither of speech or otherwise. Not as long as what you say or do goes against what the elites want.
We’re fucked. I don’t foresee any future worth living in.
Aw man. I feel you. Especially the work part.
My cousin ended up with a burnout because of a similar situation. I hope you won’t let that happen to you.
Speak to your boss. Let them know the load is a bit much and you need some breathing room. Othewise they’ll end up with you on long term sick leave and they won’t have an expert anymore.
Thanks. I’m definitely on the verge of a burnout but it’s also where I find that I sort of know how to keep myself on the safe side for just a while longer. I have talked to my manager, and he’s working with the others on reducing my load, but this isn’t always easy, even with supposedly nice people. And perhaps ironically, I’m supposedly the most junior of the team, at least in terms of title, though I’m sometimes not sure if anyone actually knows that.
