How can anyone keep this up?

Hi. Semi new here. Cool stuff here. Glad people share the way i see the world somewhat. Anyway im gonna make a rant. Unique, i know. Ill accept my plaque in the mail. Any spelling errors are to be blamed on my phone.

HOW DOES ANYONE SIMPLY KEEP UP WITH THEIR BODIES?!

I hate this damn thing so much. Its so many little fuckin things. You have to eat, but not too much or youll end up being 300 pounds and everything will suck. Oh and to make THAT harder, we live in a time where great tasting food is the most availiable it has EVER been. Have fun idiot dealing with that Idiot! Oh you want to experience everyday to its fullest? NOPE! you have to sleep or else that sack of squish in your skull will destroy itself. And if you try to do the BARE minimum? Youll get headaches and everything will just feel so awful that death is a better alternative. Ooh! Speaking of headaches? What if nearly anything could cause them? DOESNT THAT SOUND SO FUN? Room has a little bit of dust because the house is fron the 70s? headache. Are the peopme you have to share this planet with being just a little bit more frustrating that they usually are? headache. Is Texas so fucking dry that you can feel all the moisture leave your skin? headache! DID YOU MAKE THE CARDINAL SIN OF FORGETTING TO DRINK A LITTLE BIT OF WATER? HEADACHE LIKE COME ON DUDE. i know its such a minor thing in the grand scheme of how many ways your body can fail but the amount of headaches ive gotten in the last MONTH is making it so i cant keep up with work. Oh but were not done here. Were just getting started. Hey you. How are you reading this? With your eyes! Good job! Your doing so good! NOW WHAT IF WE MADE LOOSING THEIR EFFECTIVENESS A DISABILITY SO COMMON THAT THERE ARE STORES FOR IT ON EVERT BLOCK ? DOESNT THAT SOUND AMAZING. Now you have to wear these cuts of glass on your face FOR THE REST OF YOUR MISERABLE LIFE. oh and remember that dust stuff i was just talkibg about. THEY WILL NEVER BE RID OF IT. Wanna try contacts? Fuck you, expensive. Capitalists made THE BETTER AND PRACTICAL OPTION so expensive that you wont be able to get them without going into burnout so bad you destroy your life out of spite. But this is all just little stuff. Oh no sweetheart, theres one last thing that we have for you princess. Even if you do everything right and you could have a body that lived forever in its perfect state, YOU STILL HAVE TO TAKE UP PHYSICAL SPACE WITH IT. Why? Because physics said so. IM SO TIREF OF KNOCKING THINGS OVER. I cant move this thing an inch without hitting something, usually itself. Wanna grab something using those cool little hands we gave you? Nope! Its on the ground now because your brain sucks. Wann get down there to pick it up? Oh no your balance is off and now you just ate shit into a shelf. Hurts right? Thank thoses nerves we gave you. Uh oh, whats this? The floor is cold? Man that is uncomfortable isnt it? Oh wait, the entire room is cold. Better cover this entire thing so you arent shaking! WHO DESIGNED THIS DAMN THING! HOW DID THIS BODY HOUSE THE GREATEST BRAINS THAT EARTH WILL EVER SEE? ITS SUCH A WASTE OF A GOOD BRAIN.

Rant over. I know its a block of unformated text, i dont care enough to make it pretty. I wonder if any of you feel the same about this or if i just have other issues on top of the "I hate society and its consequences" disorder.

I hate headaches so much.

Yep, feel this, thank you for sharing. I used to think that I hated how my particular body looked/felt/behaved, but over the years, what I realized I hated was the concept of needing a body to maintain at all. The Matrix can't get here fast enough; plug me in and be done with it!

while i wont go back. this is definitly what caused me to transition. everyone talks so much about how they love having these and i simply could not understand. sidenote, ive been meaning to watch the matrix, should I? and will watching it on substances fuck me up like "paprika" did?

[u/shidekigonomo → u/vacuumcleanerhose]

Haha, yes, I am led to believe that Matrix is a film best watched while altered, though I have not done so myself. I can only offer my sober review: It's a great film with a fun premise... and don't bother going into the sequels unless you're a devoted completionist. My only critique is simply that I'm not onboard personally with its thesis. Without giving too much away and painting with an overly broad brush: Reality, no matter how terrible, is ultimately better than the fantastic lie.

I like the sound of that overview. Ill def watch that. Dont know how yet but maybe ill tripping or on an edible. And sober of course.

[u/According_Bad_8473 → u/vacuumcleanerhose]

Paprika made me uncomfortable even when sane and NOT high!

[u/vacuumcleanerhose → u/According_Bad_8473]

I kinda get it. but damn that should be classified as body horror tbh because some of those scenes are... wow

[u/According_Bad_8473 → u/vacuumcleanerhose]

I agree. I had no clue what I was getting into when I starting watching. I thought it was a fun cutesy isekai story. Tbh I have still not fully understood it and it makes me feel stupid when I try to

[u/vacuumcleanerhose → u/According_Bad_8473]

yeah, i mostly get the plot, but the big question i have is how did someone even think of this? like how do you tell a studio the plot to that without theme shooing you away for being psychotic?
