Complaining about the state of the world

The internet is a fascinating thing

We’re living in interesting times, in an interesting place and situation

I don’t know, it’s hard not to lose hope, or something

To be honest, sometimes I think it would be better if a rocket just flew in and killed me

I don’t know what I’ll do with my life if I manage to survive

I do know, actually, but I very much doubt that everything will turn out as it should. I’m too sociable and not enough of a nerd for everything to go to plan

The main thing is that you can see anyone’s life and thoughts from anywhere, and given how different conditions in Ukraine are from those abroad, that’s a very interesting thing

I mean. People make plans for themselves and don’t think that the worst situation at school is sitting for an hour and a half in a cold basement straight after lessons start, when they could have stayed at home if the alarm had gone off earlier? Don’t they even have the constant refrain that the country will be conquered and there’ll be nowhere to study, work or live... that education has gone off the rails because of all this and won’t lead to anything good, and there’s nowhere to live and nothing to live on even now, even for people who seem to be stable?? And yet all that’s left is to throw yourself into your studies as much as possible, because at least you have to stand out from all the slackers, if only by your own efforts.

How do people even manage to hold onto any hope for anything? What is hope even supposed to be if I can’t do anything to move towards it?

I don’t even know for sure how normal people live, or at least how they’re supposed to live. Is this normal? Binge-watching video essays or podcasts, occasionally reading, studying, and...

One day, I’ll just give up for good.
