    My random list

    • climate change, I live in BC and summers are literally apocalyptic, ash raining from the sky and can’t even see the sun

    • loss of biodiversity which is plainly obvious with every passing year. Recently drove to Alaska without having to clean bugs off windshield

    • clearcut forest no matter where you look

    • never getting my own house despite “doing everything right” and well above average income

    • one bag of groceries is like $100

    • never having kids or a family, obvious reasons

    • no real friends since I graduated college, social media ruined everything

    • friends I had are priced out and are thousands of km away, or dead

    • housing so fucked that I have spent the last five years looking for a rental that allows a cat and still looking, I feel like if I just had a cat I would be so much happier

    • aging population and constantly going to funerals

    • various addictions I’ve lost control over since pandemic

    • cost of travel increasing exponentially so that’s coming to an abrupt end too

    • impossible to go outside without reminder of total societal collapse, teslas cruising around on streets full of homeless people

    • haven’t seen a doctor in years because there are none

    • have to go to work in 10 minutes but didn’t get a wink of sleep last night or the night before it, this is probably the main reason this comment was so whiny
