Yeah if you are at the point of having to swap out an entire organ you are not going to have a great time.

It is a shame that she died young but entropy and death does not care for the money you have.

She can at least be free of never being alone in a room with Joss Whedon ever again but life would be more fair if he was the one who died alone on the floor.

They think they have figured out some other secret other than freedom to make mistakes because they have the financial backing to make them is what sets them apart.

Life is full of people thinking that if other follow their exact steps it will work without realizing the things they have differently, such as money and resources, even just skills or biological quirks, do make quite the difference in being able to followed.

I'm not against them sharing it worked for them but that's as far as I feel it goes.

What an almost hilariously awful response.

I'm probably better off blocked by you but what an utter disappointment to being offered to offer more to the conversation.

[–] Krauerking@lemy.lol 2 points 1 week ago (9 children)

Sure. I use words that I find match more to the tone of meaning I intend to convey rather than a 1 to 1 of repeating it for the sake of repeating it.

Do you have anything to add to this other than that 2 words I used are not identical?
I'd be interested in your take on reality rather than a pedantic interjection to make it so you feel like you contributed.

Please share if you have more but I will consider using simpler prose if that's all you want to add.

Same but expanding has been a bad sale lately because it pisses off old nerds or only appeases them because they focus on stories we already know the beginning and end to.

And apparently we can't trust to tell a completely new story in the same world as that would kill the merchandise already made of characters you wish to keep around forever in their collectors packaging.

Basically people are scared to step in any direction in case it is wrong and impacts the profit.
So remake, that isn't too different but younger.

Oh I am always in favor of life. Suicide is messy, painful and leaves a lot of people with less in their life.

It's just not a solution as much as a new start point searching for something that doesn't exist and will likely lead you back to having to do it again.

People can do what they need to or want but I see no comfort for those that follow trying to get a better life. That is why I feel sad seeing people recommending it I guess.
We don't find utopia on the other side of tomorrow, just more tomorrows.

That's very much easier said than done. Aa life is often not so easy to find a better version of but more often a different version.

The advice of stay alive because at least you keep experiencing new things is good advice. Trying for better is a nice idea but a message of do what it takes to make your life "better" is... Fantasy in a way that feels off to me.

I could tell the story of the night I tried to drown myself and all that changed since then but it wouldn't be better persay. Just changed. The story would sound like meandering prose and little purpose.

I don't understand the myth of better. It causes misery more in those that do not find it.

There is surprisingly little you must do to simply exist.

Sooo.... Pushed a huge reset button on their relationships and...
I still don't get this. This kind of advice doesn't exactly work for anyone but the person speaking. No one can exactly follow the life of another as we are all completely different.

I guess the point that you have some level of free will and can make personal choices is new to some people but that isn't a fix and doesn't really resolve anything for depression.

It's trying a different tactic to handling life but it negates what was causing them misery in the first place. Which is the monotony of life itself to a degree.

This tosses all that in favor of denying finding purpose for just exploding your existence to see if you can build it new in a way that might make you happy but likely will need another reset when it stops working.

I just don't get it.

Do you know how many huge companies make money on keeping this franchise alive to sell merchandise rights and theme park tickets?!

And those 2 are worth more than any artistic integrity ever.

Somehow, in 2 decades, she comes back.

Because that's just how these kind of stories go.

Have sex, do communism.

Words to live by.
