    Did you do something for it happen? Because sometimes I think "Nothing changes, if nothing changes" is true and but then again I get tired of doing things, I'll spiral back to "I'll just stick around" mood.

    Yes, I changed a lot of things, but I also met a lot of wonderful people that made my life much better.
    I do believe that you have to take action. I kinda love being lazy, but I never feel particularly good after an entire day on the couch. The more I do, the more I accomplish, the better I feel.

      Ha, yeah, New England IPA style is very juicy. Looks very similar to OJ.

        Still illegal federally. A DEA agent still has the legal authority to arrest you (although, I doubt a jury would actually convict you). A non-citizen caught smoking weed can be denied citizenship if they try to naturalize. And they could face deportation proceedings. Even if you naturalize, if they found out you lied about the smoking weed, the administration could try to denaturalize you, especially this current administration would definitely attempt to.

          Evil destroys itself. Even if all good is destroyed it can be relearned and rebuilt as it exists in our hearts

              I don't mean to sound ridiculous or facetious here, but honestly, absolutely nothing. Absolutely nothing. I have nothing to be hopeful about anymore. My best friend had been screwing me over for months. My family hates me because I'm gay. I hate myself for a thousand different reasons. Like, I don't really have anything to be hopeful about anymore. I'm just waiting to die.

                  I'm sorry to hear that for you. I hope you can stumble upon, create, or be gifted a life you feel is worth living. I hope you find a good reason to hope.

                    I just have a bad track record on trusting people. I thought I broke that recently. I was wrong. Combine that with that broken trust snowballing into severe financial problems where I might be homeless? I'm out of hope.

                      While I feel everything you wrote in my soul and can empathize with almost every part, know that you are loved by an internet stranger. You deserve happiness, fulfillment, and peace. You are a work of art. Sometimes art is sad or depressing or horrifying, but even with those themes it is beautiful and impactful and moving. You are a work of art that always changes. Learn to love that art, learn to nurture it. Treat it like the masterpiece it is and put it where the world can enjoy it.

                      I’m here for you if you ever need someone to talk to. I’m not always the most upbeat person given — literally everything — but I’m happy to be a friend.

                      P.S. Thank you for all the content you share. You are a cornerstone of the fediverse.

                        I need a job. I'm eating less to afford housing. This isn't a case of "my life is fine and I have feelings". I don't have family willing to help me.

                        I'm hungry and worried about becoming homeless, again. Talking to people does not help me or make me feel better. I've tried, I paid a lot of money for therapy, and they all failed me.

                        OK, that's fair. Without info it can be hard to tell what type of "shit is bad and I need help" you're in.

                        I was homeless as a kid, and I hear you on that fear. Like you know that at least it's probably survivable, but also total shit and being constantly on edge and miserable. Especially with shit family. I'm sorry there's nothing I can do to help you. I won't try and pump you up unnecessarily, but at least it sounds like you're trying to think through your options rationally. Keep trying your best, it's all any of us can do.

                        Feel free to vent or send a DM any time. And hey, at least I just saved you $100 in garbage pretend therapy.

                          For what it's worth, from one internet stranger to another, I'm sorry.

                          No one should feel so betrayed on all fronts. That's awful 😞

                                Illegal in whole of EU. Personal use is not prosecuted solely in Netherlands, Germany and Portugal I think.

                                  Space exploration. It feels like the one awesome thing humanity is doing right now. Also maybe the most important thing humans are doing right now.
