Yep, it sucks. But it turns out there's a non-stop drip of terrible fucking news, the planet continues to get hotter with more wildfires every year, my well-paying career in software might be soon over due to the advent of AI coding, I'm working for the worst company I have ever worked for and with one of the worst bosses I've ever seen, the president is getting shows critical of him cancelled in order to approve sales of all major media platforms to his fascist friends (and fail sons), the cost of everything is skyrocketing, social security looks likely to collapse before I can ever collect it, and there does not appear to be any relief in sight for any of this.
Maybe I don't need to go old and healthy at 80+.
It's obvious that drinking isn't good for you, but it was just as obvious that smoking isn't good for you and that didn't keep my grandparents from doing it until it killed them — and nicotine barely gives you any buzz at all. We all gotta go some time.
