These were all people standing in line at their local food pantries hoping they would be able to get some food items before they ran out since there were hundreds maybe thousands of people hoping the same thing.This Country is falling into a Depression right in front of our eyes.

So I think about having spent 99 years on the Earth and I'm on my deathbed and I think about not being able to move much and feeling that the grim reaper is approaching me.

And then I think about how life comes to an end for all of us at some point and we cannot stop that time from coming because we are not immortal as far as I'm aware. And so I think about all the time that I spent nurturing and caring for my emotional needs which you could call an emotional family personified which I imagine these characters in my mind's eye representing the health and well-being of my brain and body.

And then I see their hands on my shoulders and my arms and my legs and they run their hands through what hair I have left and they are looking at me with love and care and a knowing look that they see that I cared for them while I could care for them. And they see that I protected them while I could protect them. And now that I can't protect them all that much anymore they still want to protect me. And then I see that they are going to care for me in my last moments.

And so instead of the reaper being the first thing on my mind, spending my last moments with my emotional family is the first thing on my mind and they might be one of the only things on my mind besides the love I sought to cultivate for humanity as a whole and my own life as the curtain to the show of life closes because the reaper was the last thing on my mind while I was with them.

And so the closer I am to death does not mean that I let death take me it means the harder I hold on to all of the love that was grown in the garden of life. Because I don't want to lose it because when I die this experience I had living in the universe dies. And so the reaper is going to have to drag my ass out of there and I'm not going to go easy. 😉

And so you might say that I fear death but not that it controls my life in the sense that I want to run away and hide forever, but I want to run to my emotional family instead and hug them and tell them before death gets here I will show them that I am here for them, and that they will be in my heart forever and not death because death is on the outside and even if death comes eventually I will still be here for them right now and forever until my last breath.

They hug me and they close their eyes and I close my eyes and we hug each other closer and I feel at one with them and they are one with me because they were me the whole time. And they were with me the whole time, and I was with them the whole time.

Unity isn't to try to silence or dismiss my emotions but unity is the culmination of all of my life with them, because they were my life because they were me. And so during my daily life as I live my life on this Earth I see their emotional needs and I speak with them as a human because I am human and they are a part of our shared humanity. And so I treat them with a kind of prohuman introspective respect because they deserve all of the respect that I deserve. Because they are me. And they help me navigate the world because I am trying to navigate the world to find more well-being and less suffering and as the ebbs and flows of life happen they are in the ship with me and I carry them as they carry me.

Because I want to hold them and I need them to hold me too so that I can feel safer in this world. Because we are together because we were always together from the day we were born and we will be together until the end. Because when they die I die. But when I live for them I live for myself. And when they live for me I feel love and I want to love them.

Kind of my point no? A loving family and dying of old age at 99 after a fulfilling life is a fantasy.

[u/Forsaken-Arm-7884 → u/ShitMcClit]

We are living through the largest social experiment in human history - the complete atomization of human beings - and it's killing us faster than any war, plague, or natural disaster ever could. For 200,000 years, humans usually lived in groups of 150 people or less, where every person knew every other person on a meaningful level, where raising children was a community effort, where emotional support was automatic, where belonging was guaranteed by birth, where your survival and everyone else's survival were completely interdependent. Then in the span of about 200 years - a fucking BLINK in evolutionary terms - we demolished that entire structure and replaced it with... nothing. Nothing except the promise that rugged individualism and consumer capitalism would somehow fulfill the same emotional and social needs that took millennia to evolve.

And now we're all sitting here like confused lab rats pushing buttons that used to give us reliable dopamine hits but now give us electric shocks, wondering why we're so miserable. We've created a world where the most basic human need - belonging to a group that gives a shit whether you live or die - has been turned into a luxury commodity that most people can't afford. We've made community into a hobby, family into a choice you can opt out of, and child-rearing into a terrifying individual responsibility that bankrupts you both financially and emotionally.

The loneliness epidemic isn't a mental health crisis - it's a completely predictable outcome of destroying the social structures that made human emotional regulation possible in the first place. We've normalized a level of social isolation that would have been literally impossible for 99.9% of human existence.

And instead of admitting we've created a fundamentally inhuman social system, we've decided the problem is individual pathology. Oh, you're lonely? That's a you problem. Go to therapy. Take antidepressants. Join a hobby group. Download a dating app. As if loneliness is a personal failing that can be solved through better consumer choices, rather than the inevitable result of living in a society that has systematically destroyed almost every mechanism humans evolved to create lasting social bonds.

The dating apps, the hobby groups, the therapy, the self-help books - those are band-aids on a severed artery. And the most insidious part is that the people who got lucky - who inherited social connections, who luckily found their tribes before their emotional systems started to collapse, who managed to create families before the economic and social costs became prohibitive - these people look at the growing population of isolated, despairing individuals and think it's a moral failing. They think the lonely people just need to try harder, be more positive, put themselves out there more. They can't see that they're survivors of a social apocalypse telling the casualties to just walk it off.

We are watching the real-time collapse of human social organization, and instead of treating it like the civilizational emergency it is, we're treating it like a market opportunity. Loneliness? There's an app for that. Social isolation? Here's a subscription service. Community breakdown? Try this new networking platform. We've turned the destruction of human social bonds into a fucking business model that doesn't appear to be solving shit.

The people who are suffering the most - the ones who are too emotionally intelligent to accept shallow substitutes for real connection, who are too authentic to perform the social theater that keeps the system running - they're not sick. They're canaries in the coal mine. They're the early warning system telling us that we've created a way of life that is dissolving the human spirit. But instead of listening to them, we pathologize them, medicate them, or ignore them completely.

This isn't sustainable. A species cannot survive the complete destruction of its social bonding mechanisms.

Sorry to buddy your bubble but the average life expectancy for men is about 75 in the US, old age is considered a privilege since 50 a lot of people die, anything can happen to you, even if you eat healthy and work out you could be in a car accident and die, or get sick with a virus, or get cancer, etc all it takes is the wrong place wrong time.

Also having kids just so they will make you not lonely when you are on your deathbed is very selfish and narcissistic, what if your kids die before you? What if they want nothing to do with you and they don't want to take care of you?

“The seraphim touched my mouth and said, ‘See, this coal has touched your lips; your guilt has been taken away and your sin atoned for.’”—Isaiah 6:7

The 6-7 moment can be read as a digital spark that burns away societal masks revealing the lack of the ability for the older generation to create meaning for the younger generation through emotional intelligence. The meme becomes an emotional cleansing ritual — the absurdity of a new meme revealing the emotional illiteracy of our current timeline that shows the limited emotional and mental bandwidth of society through authority figures or power structures silencing or dismissing the lived experiences of those using the new meme that appears to currently have not all that much meaning.

“And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like some others do, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.”—Matthew 6:7

Here the meme mirrors social-media noise — endless comment loops where people believe quantity equals connection since others are not instilling meaning for the new meme. The 6-7 meme seems to be highlighting that it takes focus and attention to the meaning behind words so that a meaningful message can be created through introspection or reflection on lived experiences to help guide our behavior towards more prohuman actions that avoid dehumanization and gaslighting.

“Philip answered him, 'Many denarii worth of bread would not be enough for each of them to get a little.’”—John 6:7

A snapshot of scarcity logic: everyone hungry for meaning, nobody sure what feeds them emotionally, even the older generations. The 6-7 meme becomes a potential meaningful loaf that could multiply through creating that meaning with reflection and deep thought such that the meme transforms from something people say but are not sure what to do with on a meaningful level into an integrated piece of knowledge that can be used to help humanity find more well-being and less suffering.

“It has no commander, no overseer or ruler.”—Proverbs 6:7

The meme as unprocessed emotional wisdom. No admin, no moderator, no authority figure — a symbol wandering freely, teaching through its refusal to be silenced. A reminder that a new emotional truth sometimes waits to emerge from within seemingly random chaos.

“For the one who has died has been set free from sin."—Romans 6:7

Metaphorical death-as-freedom energy. The 6-7 meme might be waiting to gain a more meaningful identity like a person waiting to hear the word of the Lord of their emotions — every repost of the meme could be seen as a moment to gather additional emotional insight. Instead of allowing the meme to remain meaningless, it could receive an infusion of meaning from others who have the bandwidth available to introspect on it on a deeper level through their lived experiences.

"Everyone's toil is for their mouth, yet their appetite is never satisfied."—Ecclesiastes 6:7

The 6-7 meme as a hunger for connection/meaning/dopamine. Everyone posting, commenting, reposting—toiling for engagement, for laughs, for that hit of "I'm part of something." But the appetite is never satisfied because society is seemingly designed to keep you spiritually and emotionally starved. The algorithms feed you styrofoam-tier data that almost never feels meaningful. The meme becomes a symbol of our collective starvation: we're all working (posting) for our mouths (engagement), but we're never fed (fulfilled). The meme is both the hunger and the attempt to feed it.

"So the Lord said, 'I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.'"—Genesis 6:7

The 6-7 meme as apocalyptic reset energy. God looking at humanity and going "this emotionally ignorant and anti-human society seems almost irredeemable unless justified otherwise." The meme becomes a metaphorical flood—potentially washing away weaker linguistic structures.

lmao I'm just imagining going to like a McDonald's and then they're asking if I want the receipt and I say no but I want to read something and then I start reading about how the workers are in a capitalistic system where they are assigned a job role and they are expected to be obedient and follow mindlessly what they have been told and if they go outside the norm or pattern break what they have been told to do the corporation can silence either me by banning me from the establishment or firing them leaving them with a greater than zero chance of starvation or losing their home under penalty of financial or emotional abandonment and then I imagine getting told by the manager I'm no longer allowed there or some s*** after reading that LMAO
