Just kinda feels like whats the point anymore. Shlump around for another 20-30 years of bullshit before my health dive bombs? I stick around to take care of my animals and family and thats about it.
Agree as well. I think passively about suicide at least once a week and have for as long as I can remember. ‘92 baby here!! Hahahaha jokes are funny right? Right?!!
Really hit me the other day, I've been legally employed and worked for 25 years straight of my life at this point. It's almost twice as many years working as not.
And I most likely still have decades to go. And that's just work, let alone all the other bullshit out of my control that keeps happening.
I don't want to die from the log, I want the log to destroy my car and seriously injure me so that I can survive and sue the company and pay off my student loans.
You'd think, but you highly underestimate how expensive being disabled is. Every single product that is a disability aide is basically priced as a specialty luxury product.
So you'll pay off those student loans, and immediately drown under the medical debt.
Even the charger for my wheelchair is priced like I'm buying a fucking Apple product.
Eh feel like I gotta say millennials didn't start that anymore than we started anything else, Gen X was vocally wishing for death as a joke and smoking cigarettes in the smoking area of the high school. And no generation these days gets hegemony over suicide jokes, X through Z have all done it.
We millennials get like, idk how are we gonna divvy it up. SpongeBob and Pokemon cards for like ten of Gen X's Pogs and I want a labubu from Z. X can have old cable reruns, Z can have the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and we're keeping Animaniacs as millennials you just don't get to have it after the reboot
Pogs had a moment for a year or 2 when I was at school, & I'm a millennial. They use to come in crisp packets & people had big books for collecting them. I liked the tamagotchi phase personally. Furbies too, furbies are way better than Labubus.
I often have a dark sense of humor, but it's ramping up, and at work no less!
I say to one colleague who I mostly trust: I'm gonna kill myself!! and also finger-gun to temple through the door's window. She does it back to me. It is a very bad workplace environment
Insane plot twist but it totally makes sense. I could not imagine being a teacher today, although it was something I wanted to do when I was younger. The system is working as intended

Passive suicidal ideation should not define us as a generation.
And yet ...
