    I am not sure when that happens.

    I think regardless of titles or success, you always carry a small amount of doubt in the aituation and there is an underlying expectation that everything will blow up at any moment.

    I'm currently feeling like there's basically nowhere for me to go and I just need to build my resume and leave. That sucks so much :(

    Easier when you're already employed at least.

    Just stay the fuck away from certain employers I may have acquired a newfound hate for.

    life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
    fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
    that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
    bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

    Yeah, that's kind of a problem we've gotten from the media of our childhoods, you never actually "make it", you just reach different levels of success, from which you can plummet any moment and lose everything. There's no actual goal, aside from dying somewhere other than the gutter or a shitty nursing home

    my life goal is to get to plat in League of Legends this season

    I can do it!

    there are a lot of hallmarks of success for me, as a poor kid looking in from the outside. i'm sure some of them will feel hollow, should i ever get there.

    Oh,I can guarantee it will. No matter what success you achieve, it will always feel like it's not big enough because there's always more successfull people out there.

    do you get ever tired of being an unrelenting cesspit of misery or letting other people know about it

    More or less kept. Once I'm finally out rad can focus on her career and we can get a house in the (relative) country with chickens and goats.

    Right now my loftiest goal if I need to keep working so our lifestyle is maintained is Costco.

    I saw her 9 days ago in person! Then last weekend I sent her an email about the art selfie app because I thought she would like it and had a text back and forth

    why did she *still* send me one of those sad 'how are you I haven't heard from you you know I'm here if you ever want to talk [to a self-absorbed and aggravating old person]'

    so I called and was like yes I am calling out of obligation no I have nothing to say how are you I am fine goodbye

    mommmmmmm stop being so annoyingggggggg

    maybe, mainly, she is lonely and likes talking to you?
