When I look around me NPCs are doing better than me. Even though I believe I was never fully NPC in the past.
You would think being aware about what’s going on in the world, you would have a sense of freedom.
I also got hit really hard by the covid fiasco mentally. Just by seeing all those NPC around me championing all the restrictions, made me feel very lonely for a while. Because my mind was and is not the same as theirs. If I would speak out what’s in my mind I probably wouldn’t have any friends surrounding me anymore.
I’m not being myself, I’m being fake, so that the NPCs would accept me. The fake me is the person that they like about me and want hang around with.
I totally lost all joy in life, my addictions became heavier over the last two years, the last months I’m doing better to quit them.
But being sober all the time brings back all those bad feelings. I’m not even able to focus on loving someone. My friends think I’m low energy. But the addictions kept me that way.
And the question “What am I even doing here on this planet” start roaming in my head again.
When I have good times, I get upset that some others don’t. Do I even have the right to pray to God for more and more, while others are begging for food and are sleeping on the streets.
Does God even care about me? If he does, than does he cares about the others as well?
Life just seems not fair for the majority people on earth.
Those feelings hold me back to advance my own life. While dreaming about all those cool stuff you can do on this earth.
Just being aware of so many things made me very destructive towards myself.
Is there someone who can relate? Were you able to get your lust for life back?
Reminds me of the guy on the Matrix that just wanted to be hooked back up. Not me friend! I have been waiting for this for 50+ years. I get depressed sometimes when I think it is not going as fast as I want but after a couple days off, I can't wait to get back on here and see what I missed. Hang tight, it is always darkest before the dawn.
Amen
-Cypher character (The Matrix, 1999)
Live on your feet fighting for your individual rights, or die on your knees with the bullet to the head by your Communist overlords. Your choice is that simple, imo. And actors are only important in a world of make-believe.
“And actors are only important in a world of make-believe.”
That might’ve been an inside joke that the Wachowskis think actors are sell outs like Cypher.
Definitely inside joke. It took me three viewings before I got it. In light of the revelations about Hollywood actors engaged in pedophilia and their own exaggerated self-importance it is even more of a revelation to me now.
Note that there is a tight linkage between "acting" and "name stealing", and this is a deep insight into who these Hollywood people and their families really are.
Have you ever seen Nightcrawler with Jake Gyllenhaal? Kind of the same idea. It implies that the real life people who have climbed the ladder of corporate news media were able to do so because they’re psychopaths like Gyllenhaal’s Nightcrawler character.
When all is revealed, the lies, the corruption, how long these people have been in control, people will realize we have been living in the Matrix.
Same for me each time. GAW is uplifting as well
