ant societies are messed up, too much responsibility and sacrifice for royalty, id rather be a cancer cell in some billionaires brain and do meaningful collective work by just being myself π π¦
That's praxis for ye, mate!
I mean, you don't have to... there are many societies from Japan to Mexico that are collectivist... what makes him different from ant societies?
good news! odds are you'll reincarnate as a nematode instead
Having seven braincells sounds really nice right now.
watching a yugopnik video about the normalization of warcrime porn that I've avoided by only really posting here and god damn it's hard not to wish I had only 7 braincells right now. anything to never have to interact with the anglosphere again, please.
Hell yeah I could use an upgrade
Oof.... wait, why do you insist on the luck that I'll turn into a insect or microbe in the next life... is this a Buddhist or Kafka reference?
Statistically, most animals are nematodes
Yo if I get reincarnated yo I'd come back as somethin cool like a bulldozer or a gun.
High hopes but aight.... 
Na man were all getting Kafkaed. Just call me Papa Roach.
Nah, I'm not getting tricked into this again, I'm done with this existing nonsense.
oh, the cis or trans dice roll is what gets me
Wdym by that?
would I be cis or trans? who knows!
I fuckin hope theres no afterlife living sucks
If I have to come back I hope it's in like 5000 years, after communism has been established and climate change is under control.
Hmmm, I never considered that...
you're living this exact same life again and again forever
Ah... fuck me, but on the other hand, I realized this thought isn't so bad....
Yk what... maybe Groundhog Day was true after all...
But what if you are reincarnated in the future when communism is fully developed
Oh, well, bon... maybe I'll have a purpose there to make some new skills...
Yeah that would e real bad.
Knowing that I'll have to relive and relearn the damn primary school-to-high school experience of lessons...
unlikely:
No one ever said reincarnation happened linearly in time, and 99.99% of all humans who have ever lived did not have to suffer through this indignity
Odds are, you'll end up way more impoverished than you are now
And I think that's my problem.... it's resetting my progress in life now, that's the main issue...
Also, do you sometimes dread looking into your inbox? Sometimes I do...
The Lovecraftian existential horror sitting in your inbox:
Well, I must tell you that you're problematic and deeply unserious 
I hope my deeply unserious nature can at least give you a sensible chuckle while we all circle the drain.
Canβt fuck it up worse, Iβm game
Just say no and don't.
I can do you worse, 100% repeat of the current life in a groundhog's day fashion with each successive life you becoming more aware fuckery is about until like 100,000 lives in you know everything that will happen from a very young age
Ah, maybe, or maybe not... I mean, life isn't always gonna only in this modern current setting?
I just realize I could end up far in the future in a highly-advanced world of FALSC (Full-Automated Luxury Space Communism) or in a nuclear landscape where the Earth has devolved into the sun
Right, we only perceive things as linear, but really they aren't. You could find yourself anywhere in everywhen, but I was just thinking what I thought was the worst for around here.
