Like you’ve seen everything and now you can only experience things you’ve already experienced.

    Not remotely. If you feel like you’ve seen everything, it might be time to consider a (literal) change of scenery. There are too many places to go, different people to meet and try to understand, books to read, flavors to taste. Seeing it online isn’t the same as seeing it in person with your own eyes. You could go a day’s walk in any direction and likely find something you haven’t seen before. You just have to be looking for it.

    Get into folkloristics, it’s pretty fun. You can get into all the Slenderman stuff because it’s literally untapped mystery you can’t just rely on secondhand sources, all the research is centered on one controversy that somehow killed his popularity but not every other religion. My “job” (it’s a hobby) is basically having to read the hundreds of all the Slenderman blog ARGs ranging from 2009 to the present day, as well as all the freaking Slenderman and Creepypasta comics. It’s just interesting how religious patterns emerge out of something spontaneously created on the internet, like Zalgo vs Slenderman having parallels with every other religion with “divine rivalry”. Interesting anthropological subject.

      Or you can read world history that isn’t just Eurocentric stuff. Hell, I bet most people don’t know European History in depth. You can even get into scholarly theology, from Christianity to Hinduism (which btw, is more of an umbrella term as it is composed of multiple religions). Read philosophies like Confucianism, which will help you understand a bit of Chinese culture.

    Quite the opposite. My two main hobbies are tabletop roleplaying and spending time in nature and both of those have an experience space that can’t be explored fully in one lifetime.

    I’m often even confused when people seem to think they need to travel far to gain new experiences and I haven’t even fully explored the nature just outside of my apartment.

    Yes and no. There’s always new ways to experience things. I just saw a great concert last night. I knew all the songs, but the presentation changed. People are always creating.

    i find life so unsatisfying that if, when i die, the afterlife has any resemblance AT ALL to this current reality, i am going to be fucking pissed.

    like, any version of occupying a physical body in some sort of 3-dimensional space and surrounded by other physical beings is just, so… ugh.

    i am over it.

      Hood news. The afterlife is the same thing as the before life. Remember that? The 4 biillion odd years or so before you existed? Exactly.

    Not even close. Too many things to learn, too many things you can get good at, not enough time to do them all.

    OP, just how wealthy are you? This is a very rich person assessment to make.

      I make $700 a week at Amazon and $200 a week with DoorDash but I still don’t have my own apartment. On the plus side I have several months of expenses saved so I can take days off anytime (amazon is flexible as hell) but I really need to live alone where I can optimize my life for maximum peace and receive mail in my legal name. I really want (and need) to live in an apartment close enough to my warehouse that I can walk, bike, or ride public transit for less than 30 minutes. Preferably riding a bike or escooter in the early afternoon like whooooooosh

      I’m not broke but I’m not ultra I Can’t See The Ground From My Window And My Dog Is My Alarm Clock rich. Not yet anyway, I will not stop trying to make money until I live in a multimillion dollar palace in the sky with like 10 bedrooms that are all mine, my animals’, and my husband’s.

      Tl;dr I make $700 weekly and more if the stars align

    The opposite. I’m afraid I will waste my life procrastinating, not even being aware of what it has to offer.

    Nah, I wanna fly a plane. Apparantly depression make you ineligible for a pilots licence… 🤷‍♂️

    Also the bad eyesight probably isn’t gonna make it easier to fly a plane (I have to wear glasses all the time, and I’m too scared for lasik)

    As morbid and fucked up as it is, I kinda wanna experience like civil war and just see what coups/revolutions looks like, I mean I’m kinda suicidal anyways, might as well experience something unique.

    I wanna see humans land on mars, then permanent colonization and settlement of the moon and mars. Maybe even travel there.

    Idk, like I’m just depressed and bored, and no movie or TV show is interesting… 😕

      Regarding the depression. As long as you are conscious about it and have had therapy for it, just lie. Lie to become a pilot if it’s really your dream. You know yourself if you are going to be able to learn and drive it.

    Im no big on new experiences. I like being content. Like a cat. I could never tire of walks or biking or gardening or relaxing or having a hot bath or whatever. I am sad for this world and where its going and even more so that it is my kind. Humanity. Driving it there. Nature is beautiful and terrifying and amazing. I very much appreciate I got to experience this timespace and yet do not want to be of this world.
