Does life feel like a dream to anyone else

[ONION BURPS]

I just float through life. Nothing really shocks me anymore. I don't really feel a desire for anything. Even porn has lost its charm.

I have like zero emotional response to anything. Like a car can come out in front of me while driving and I won't even get mad. Or someone is in my way at the grocery store and I will just stand there and say nothing. I would legit wait there for 5 minutes because I just don't care anymore.

Life is absurd.

Multiple times throughout the day I will have the realization I am in a body on earth in 2026. It's really weird.

 

[Animecel2D]

No. It feels like a nightmare

 

[VanGobbel]

yeah i have emotionally kinda zoned out. but only because i realise how futile it is to get worked up over things that are out of your control.

everyone deals with this in their own manner though

If this feeling kicks in randomly it could be related to derealization I believe.

This shithole reality forces you to become apathetic

Exactly. I think I've finally hit the learned helplessness point of my life. Getting upset does nothing.

Yeah the past 10 years or so have had an element of surrealness for me. I'm sure part of it is just me getting old and realizing the world I grew up in no longer exists. But there's more to it than just that.

Around 10 years ago was when I started really realizing that the internet and real life were rapidly merging. I'd heard people use internet lingo and reference internet memes in real life long before then, but around 2016 was when it became a lot more common. And now I hear it constantly all the time from my coworkers. It's like their entire personality is tik tok and reddit.

Another thing that seems surreal to me is how looksmaxxing and certain blackpill lingo became mainstream. I was on proto-incel forums like puahate that started it all, so to see it go mainstream and hear complete normies talking about looksmaxxing and using lingo that I was there for the genesis of make me feel like I'm in a weird dream or simulation or something.

 

[Dead End]

Yes. I'm typically not aware of the date or even the day of the week. I have practically no reference of time when I reflect on my recent past. Everything just blurs in my memory and I barely feel lucid.

 

[Halloween]

it's a nightmare

 

[Shitpostr]

No. It feels like a nightmare

This, and it's been haunting me since the invention of the smartphone.

 

[TooSomething]

A nightmare more like.

 

[Sex-Starved Beast]

No, It feels like a sad reality. No sentient mind could come up with a story as sad and uneventful as this.

 

[ihatelife2]

Relatable, emotionally numb, no motivation to do anything

 

[razielkillerofgods]

Yes feels like going through the motions.

 

[RandomGuy]

A nightmare more like.

[NickelodeonCel]

I feel the same, trauma and the clownpill have numbed my soul.

 

[Itsoverm8]

no it feels like a fucking bad dream

 

[nazianime]

Same, I feel apathetic. Which means that dumb shit normie advice like “go touch grass” does not work.

Around 10 years ago was when I started really realizing that the internet and real life were rapidly merging. I'd heard people use internet lingo and reference internet memes in real life long before then, but around 2016 was when it became a lot more common. And now I hear it constantly all the time from my coworkers. It's like their entire personality is tik tok and reddit.

They stole the internet from the reclusives. Now I don’t want to hear about the internet at all, I am haunted by the ever present connection and being tracked around, them exploiting every word I post. Normalfags stealing our lingo to use it in their TikToks and corporations taking our copes trying to exploit them to get to your wallet. If you don’t like what they are selling they will shut down sites you like so you can only consume what they want to sell to you.

I literally just post here now, watch YouTube (garbage recommendations btw, fully controls what they want you to watch not what you like), and have a x account for viewing anime artwork (you have 80% control over the content you want to see).
