I’m bitter.
I’m frustrated.
My anxiety is through the roof.
I’m angry.
All the time.
At everything.
I’m tired of everything being so difficult. Life doesn’t have to be this hard. We shouldn’t have to put up with all this unnecessary bullshit. We, as a society, should be so much further advanced than we currently are. If this all sounds vague, that’s because pretty much EVERYFUCKINGTHING is fucked up right now in the world. Everything is so goddamned backwards and counter-intuitive. I’d wonder how in the fuck we got here, but I’ve studied history and I see how we got here. It’s still difficult to believe that this is the world we are currently living in, contrasted with the way I know things should be.
And I feel robbed. I feel cheated. Not just for me, but, for all of us. We’re trapped inside this ridiculous society that we didn’t build, we didn’t craft, yet we perpetuate because — because that’s the way things are, of course. Things are the way they are because that’s the way they are, it seems. And most people are content to play their part and be the cog in the machine that they were meant to be …
I don’t know. In a way, that’s kind of how a society has to be, how it has to work. But ours is so fucked up. It’s tolerable, to most, to be a cog in a machine if all the pieces are valued, if there are none strewn about on the floor, discarded, forgotten, broken, if they’re all kept well-oiled, maintained, secure. If the cogs in the machine aren’t taken care of, the machine will stop working. Our machine is starting to shimmy and shake, I think.
I hope. I mean — things can’t go on like this. This fucking sucks, guys, seriously. What are we doing? Why do we put up with this Corporate Overlord bullshit we’re putting up with? They’re fucking robbing us all blind and paying us shit. How long are we all going to just keep doing this?
