I've come to realize how accessibility is the most important factor behind our favorite activities and how it plays a huge role in literally everything we do. Making a movie for instance is such a hassle that I can always come up with excuses not to do it. I do not stop ourselves from playing vidya, watching porn etc. simply because it is so easy to do it. The fact that I can do so many things with just a few clicks is reason enough to do it.
Helping the poor would be cool and all, but how can I do that? No idea, so I'm just not gonna do it. Is the simplification of our everyday life via internet accesss, food delivery and voice assistants actually making our lives harder instead of easier simply because other (arguably more important) activites seem like such a hassle now? I wonder how far this will go. We already entered dimensions we couldn't even think of 20 years ago.

that was beautifully said anon. I'm 20 y/o working part-time at a warehouse and this is the exact same thing I'm feeling rn. I'm lucky that I can live with my dad so I don't have the economic threat on my neck. I'm thinking of going to college this year mostly because it gives me an opportunity to socialize with (hopefully) similiar minded people and eventually have some friends. Ofc it'd also be nice to have a gf but that fantasy is so far away from me now that I can't possibly imagine it.

I know I want to do something. I know I want to make films, write, draw, make music or whatever the fuck that fulfills me. But I'm getting this feeling that if I don't find friends and a partner then I'm forever gonna be miserable and hopeless no matter how successful I am with my career or whatever it is that I want to achieve.
I believe I have aspergers and I can't talk properly so most of the time I just shut the fuck up in social gatherings to not embarrass myself. I'm still traumatized by that internship I had when I was 16 - I was working at a clothing retailer and my coworker made me feel like the absolute biggest failure of human existence for not being able to talk to customers. That shit hurt me man. How is a teenager supposed to cope with that? Sometimes after those horrible shifts I'd walk down the river for an hour and think about ending it all.

I like the internet and especially 4chan because it doesn't make me feel like a complete failure. Even if someone were to insult me I can just brush it off because it's technically not real and anonymous. People often mistake internet consumption for some kind of addiction (porn, vidya etc.) and even though there's some truth to that, most people don't realize that the internet is a safe space for people lke me.
