    It’s a good day when only one or two people tell me what a horrible, worthless person I am (I guess three if you include myself), so I guess this is one of the occasional good ones.

    Edit: Come to think of it, there are no good ones and if I didn’t have real world responsibilities, I don’t know that I would want to keep existing.

      Hey, for what it’s worth (which is up to you to decide), I enjoy your being here. I get that you’re beyond frustrated about your personal life stuff. From what little I do know, it sounds horrible. So no shade there at all. It’s tough.

      But, despite that, you come here and have helped build communities where people can go and let off steam and forget their personal shit for a few moments, and for some of us, that’s tremendous. You could shrug it off; you’ve not met these people in real life. I don’t know, maybe you have. But to some of us, it’s a little something we can look forward to because it helps us cope when we have little else. So thank you for that.

      Anyway, carry on and fuck the haters. You can’t please everyone.

      You’re neither horrible nor worthless. I think they got the joke and were just listing all of the words made. They read it like a “don’t dead open inside.”

      Regardless, it’s brilliant work. I’ve already sent it to several friends. Great post!

        Yes, hence my saying I also think I am a horrible, worthless person.

        Also hence my saying I would not continue to exist if I didn’t have real world responsibilities.

        I have been shown very clearly by the universe that I’m a mistake.

          You know, there comes a point when you should also realize the shit you cause other people when you just spew stuff online.

          Take a break once in a while dude.

            Take a break and do what exactly? I can’t walk more than half an hour without having to rest for two. Like I told you, I’m a mistake.

            I also have nothing else worth doing and almost no one else to talk to. I may not deserve to live, but that doesn’t mean I’m not lonely.

            But yes, you have already made it clear that you agree with my self-assessment. Anything more you wish to tell me about me?

              Watch tv, read a book, play video games, learn a job you can do while sitting a computer.

              Come on dude, take a little personal accountability, I’m dealing with multiple disabilities myself, I don’t use it as an excuse to be a miserable dick online.

                I can’t not be what I am not. I can’t not be horrible and worthless and don’t deserve to be alive. We already established you agree, so why are you continuing this?

                  Yes you can, avoid social media, read a book.

                  And you’re the one responding to me now, why are YOU continuing it. Yes you crave attention, but this isn’t the attention you need for your mental health dude.

                  You would be a case study on what not to do.

                    I don’t really crave attention beyond wanting to talk to someone other than the only two people I ever see. But, again, we both agree that I am a horrible, worthless person who doesn’t deserve to be alive. I’m not sure what continuing to let me know that achieves. I’m also not sure why you think I should take your advice when you feel that way about me. Why would I take the advice of someone who thinks of me like that? Do you think I take my own advice? Every time I do, I fuck up.

                    Which is why the universe has decided I am worthless and which is why I am being punished for it.

                    Like I said, I won’t take the easy way out because I have responsibilities, but by my calculations based on the weight loss I’m experiencing due to my health issues, by this time next year, I won’t need to. So that’s something for you and most other people here to look forward to! You’ll never have to read a post from me again by June 2025! Won’t that be great?
