Why am i existing for no reason

Human is that being for which not having a meaning is a problem, and which has "no meaning" as it's default state.

It's a problem which has no specific solution or specific way or reaching that solution. The two most general ways to solve it is to actively do things to find that meaning or to wait around to see if it finds you. the first method is probably more effective, I don't know, I never tried it. the second method is less likely, but it's the most common way people proceed.

This is a problem I have right now and in this very moment I'm also thinking about how to fix it. I have what is probably a dead-end job in the end and I don't know what I want to do rather than what I am doing so it causes a form of decision paralysis. What do I even care about, besides the people in my life? They just want me to have a good way of making a living and to live as long and healthily as possible and to spend time with them and enjoy them and to do things that they want me to do on a daily basis.

Which I can be ok with it, the job thing is the biggest setback right now I guess. I don't know what I want to do, or what I could be good at, and I don't have a great way of finding out what that is.

People dont work for things anymore.

I'm not sure if I understand. Obviously if you are raising money and lying about what you are raising money for, that is unethical and legally, some type of fraud.

Otherwise, people will donate to things they believe deserve a donation. If you think what is being funded is frivolous, then don't fund it.

I remember hearing a story a long time ago about a young woman raising money to pay for a breast enlargement. I would never donate to that in a million years, but she received thousands of dollars from people. I think it's sad in a lot of ways but it's what people are willing to do, apparently.

Do you mean like people scamming for money on patreon or something?

anyone thankful for something

Though, not to gossip (I think the people involved are still using the site) there was this thankfulness thread on the last site that, in my opinion got way out of hand and bordered on trolling in my opinion, even if it wasn't intentionally...it was basically the same two users going back and forth over and over again over the course of months, continuously bumping the topic and just coming up with different inane things to be thankful about to the point where it's like, alright, why don't you two just get a room already?!!

The reply thats pending approval can just be junked. I used the s word that also ends in an x. I wasn't expressing myself well anyway.

Calling this a witchhunt is just categorically incorrect. For all the reasons i stated and others. Keep in mind that no republican is saying that the witnesses in the hearing lied or that any of the facts that dems asserted happened are false. They are simply interpreting those facts differently and saying that trump's motivation for his actions was good.

One day two brothers were raking in the front yard.

Though now that i think about it me and my brother would not have been trusted to be alone with rakes at that age.
