>>31585 No point in saying it over and over.

>>31585 You came into my life

We exhausted that topic.

they all kys'ed themselves

When you're young, you feel entitled to support, I guess due to the fact that you'd spent life so far with family providing everything for you, and the shock of independence causes a lot of angst. After a few years, you start to take responsibility for yourself, and while the depression never subsides, the desire to complain to people about it feels increasingly unnecessary.

We turned to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Most here are 35+ and have come to terms with their circumstances. If you are looking for an imageboard-adjacent community where people celebrate self pity all day I suggest incels.is.

>>31658 Jesus is the devil.

I realized that talk about my problems doesn't solve them, so i stopped talk about how depressed i am or how meaningless my life is.

>>31658 Hell no!

>>31670 if only women could learn this one trick

>>31656 I agree with this. The strange thing about IBs is that (outside of 4kanker) the userbase has aged over time, there's a good chance that a poster you're arguing with is someone you've argued with many times before - likely on the same topic. The next few years could be interesting as most of us head into our mid-life crisis. I certainly know that I sometimes wake up in a panic about it.

I became schizo instead.

I really don't miss those days at all. Sure, some banter about "that feel when no gf" was fun from time to time, but it got turned into a cult by /r9k/ incels websites, etc and attracted incredibly mentally ill people. It's extremely boring now, I don't want such conversations.

>>31698 There was a very brief time of a few months to a year or so at the start of /r9k/'s existence that it was a very good board and let's see... Yep it's still completely awful ever since.

It seems like most of the people here are job and relationship having norms.

>>31707 Many, but definitely not all. I live very isolated for example, the last person who was close to me was my mom and she died years ago. I have my copes and crying about it won't change anything.

>>31707 You don't really become a normie just because you get a job and gf. I have both but both job and relationship are quite odd and berndlike

>>31710 Well that is the other thing, the rest of us are fine with such a life, but then many of us true Neets probably never complain to begin with, I never did. Sad about your mother. >>31711 Excuses excuses.

>>31660 >>31656 >>31694 Zoomers don't suffer? I don't want to read zoomer crying BTW. I'm just wondering why nobody talks about something that seems to still be part of life for everybody in these corners of the internet.

If you want to talk about it talk about it. But I don't miss thread after thread of this.

>>31715 the mere phrase "bawww thread" is something I haven't read in a very long time

Another shitty macacque thread

>>31714 Everyone suffers, but you only really make it everyone else's problem too when you're young

>>31714 Zoomers don't use the internet in the same way we do and I'm not entirely sure that their culture has the right confluences for pity parties to emerge. I have no idea what their version of IBs even is - maybe a discord? Maybe as an experiment you can go on Fortnight and spam >that feel when no gf?

Now everyone is depressed so no need to talk about it any longer

>>31793 This.

>>31585 >What changed? The generation that used and still uses imageboards grew out of this, while zoomers go to other places to feel depressed. Besides, the nature of the web changed: over the course of the last 13-15 years the internet has become increasingly interwoven with real life, turning from a separate and relatively disconnected escapist place into a direct extension of the general society.

>>31585 What is your goal in this life?

>>31901 There are still semi anonymous places. Zoomers go to be depressed on discord. t. zoomer. Some of my friends are already married tho, Gen Z are mostly adults now.

>>31954 Zoomers are pushing 30 nowadays. Their days as the 'youth generation' are numbered. It's a special feeling when everyone suddenly stops talking/complaining about you. t. millennial who used to be at the centre of attention 'kids these days eating avocado toast' and such silliness

>>31969 >boo hoo look at me: I'm a forgotten lousy millennial! nobody gives

>>31973 On the contrary, I no longer experience angst, but shall look upon zoomers knowingly as they go through this same inevitable crisis

>>31976 I was just kidding, my man on a more serious note, I've recently been thinking about that generational change. and here's what I came to realize: that one of aspects of leadership - beside the ton of other things - is that Zelensky in Ukraine is actually not a baby boomer, unlike Lukashenka, Putin, Trump and many other leaders still holding power. we are just at the start of that transfer of power

>>31977 Many of the people on Trump's team are millennials, and they have shown themselves to be maybe even worse toadies than the boomers

>>31983 oh, don't be misguided by the theatrics that Steve Miller has orchestrated. it's just to move the spotlight away from the real actions they take. btw, speaking about zoomers, I think I heard that there was that idea in Israel about modern young people being too soft and squishy and not able to stand up for themselves. and then the October attack happens and Israeli zoomers enlist and bear arms no problem, demolishing Hamas completely.

>>31585 Why do you miss that? I think it's very boring at best and spreading bad vibes at worst. Also I'm kinda tired of people talking about their many mental illnesses (depression, anxiety, bpd, autism, adhd and whatever "neurodivergent" shit is en vouge today). IRL and URL every third person I meet has some kind of mental defect, it has become exhausting because I just can't relate.

>>32071 You can relate, you have them too (meaning, you lack them as much as that person actually lacks them, but experience the same emotions as what got the diagnosis)
