>I feel the same. The only thing that brings me joy is potential collapse of civilisation andthe science around it.
That used to be me, but now I'm like:
>why did I have to be born just in time for it?
I was born and lived during one of those "golden ages" a lot of YT commenters praise due to their le wrong generation complex, but I sometimes wish I was born even way earlier. I used to argue that I'd rather have dial-up and good times than wi-fi and bad times, but a bit of me wouldn't mind living in the 1800s or some shit if only because then I wouldn't have to worry about all this bullshit, y'know? I could read Thackeray, Zola, Dostoevsky, etc hot off the presses instead of hearing about Trump this, SJWs that and whatever.
>Videogames lost their charm and I only force myself through games which are part of a series which I used to be a fan of, but even those are stale now.
I know that feeling - I've recently been playing Saints Row 2, but all I can think about while playing it is how horrible those games got afterwards. Literally every franchise (not just in gaming either) I've ever had an interest in went down in flames, and while I still can play old favorites like SR2, I find them incredibly stale. I want something fucking NEW for a change, y'know?
I haven't even watched a movie in years, not a single one. Can't even watch the old favorites in my collection because I've seen them so many times, it's not fun anymore. Books? Same thing. Music? Same thing.
>I believe that in a second and I think this is also the main reason mental illnesses are on the rise.Chatting on imageboards or facebook or whatever is just a poor excuse for face to face communication as, cognitively seen, there a completely different mechanisms at work.
