Honest questions: What has landing on the moon really done for society? How does it add to the greater good of anything? I get that being able to launch satellites into orbit has created an entirely different technological infrastructure, but I don’t know that the moon landing really contributed anything more.

The man who sits back in his chair really IS enjoying the fruits of his labor. He likes his life the way it is. He could work harder, but the end goal in the story after building his fishing empire is enjoying his afternoon off. He has that now. He isn’t denying himself anything.

Nice, I had those types of chips today 🤘

Book a trip somewhere.

Doesn't even have to be nice, just a change of scenery.

Make lists and a timeline of everything to accomplish during your vacation.

Exercise. Make that the first thing you do on the first day off. Just go for a walk someplace. Or run.

Edit. I just noted your location.

Get. The fuck. Out. Of. Reno.

Maybe go snowboarding.

I am indeed fried every day and every day is Fryday

Hey I don’t know you but what I do know is that your life is not over. It took me 3 years to get to where I am now. If you need someone to talk to, my DMs are open! Hang in there buddy

Throw away all of your pot and destroy/give away all of your gaming systems and games.

This too shall pass, my friend :)

For comfort food fries, McDonald's for me as well. But a close second is a local place called Tony Burger--the fries are so good. I'll always say yes to in-n-out fries. And smash burger fries. I think I just like fries.

McD’s, but there’s something special about In-N-Out.

Yeah, thought this was on r/antiwork for a sec there...

Similar stories abound, but stories like this didn't land a man on the moon.

A bunny is happy if it is dry and fed. A human also. But a human who denies all aspects of himself except those which he shares with the bunny will live, by definition, as a happy animal: a degenerate.

We are given desperately little time on Earth. Should we not use this time to, even in some small way, ease the path of those that will come after us? Is there any other moral option?

The man who leans back in his chair and smiles quietly believes he is enjoying the fruits of his labor, but is it not closer to the truth to say that he is living off the collective efforts of the civilization around him as much as by his own labor? Standing on the shoulders of giants, he decides he would rather sit.

"Nothing is going to get better." Wow, this post is so motivational!

Dude was a wacko who disappeared up his own ass. He sincerely believed that the human intellect was an evolutionary mistake, like a deer that had evolved horns too heavy for its own head.

You’re

Seems pretty Dr. Sus

That's the key to never being happy. Happiness and fullfillment will come if I finally get X, but once I got X I realized my real desire was Y all along so I started striving towards Y.

You can spend your whole life trying to find happiness and never succeed or you can just be happy with your shit life. Then you happy all the time.

Break the cycle with something you're not expected to do or something you think you're not likely to do that's harmless and goofy just because. I actually felt and often feel this way myself (25, F) and the other day I nearly got into a (would have been potentially fatal) car accident due to bad weather and no fault of any driver. I was surprisingly upset about it, as if I hadn't just spent the day thinking to myself "I would really not mind if I suddenly stopped living at any given moment because of how living feels so plain and empty".

I decided to make myself a nice meal on a weekday (I don't usually due to telling myself it takes too long) as if I was cooking for someone I care about and I made myself dance in my kitchen a little bit. Even though I was by myself I felt embarrassed and shy, but I laughed because it was ridiculous. I don't dance well at all, but it was fun.

I don't have regular hobbies and struggle to stick to them but I've learned to appreciate the willingness to try, or to even put it down and pick it back up later. Life is meaningless in that none of what I'm doing (trying to crochet, learn to skate, hike alone, bake a baguette, simply existing etc.) matters to literally anybody else walking the earth and that's fine.

You don't have to solve a world issue or lead the charge in something that makes history to have enjoyed the life you lived prior to dying. You can just be a person that sometimes dances in your kitchen for no reason because it's fun to you. You can try things out and not like them then try other things and be proud of yourself for trying in the first place.

I'm in the same boat, I've had too many extended vacations at home where I start with big goals and end up accomplishing very little.

I will say exercise is important for anyone. It's hard to start but if you can get into a routine of working out a set number of days a week it gets easier over time. Like a habit after a certain point. Also I tend to feel better physically and emotionally when I'm exercising somewhat regularly.

As far as accomplishing goals idk man I'm a bad procrastinator so I'll keep pushing things off until my vacation is over. I guess its best to write a list of what you would realistically like to accomplish during your break. And start on something the first day or two of vacation, unless you have travel plans or something.
