So proud of YouTube admitting to wanting to die too… 😅😂
(I hope this isn’t too dark. Marked it NSFW to be careful. No harm intended.)
And of course: This post is just dark humor. Please do not harm yourself!
Yo, this reminds me of that weird ad from Coca-Cola or whatever corporation. It’s an ad that shows up when I pause my streaming services. It’s just a big red screen that says “RECYCLING TAKES ALL OF US.” And, goddammit, I’m so fucking depressed that it took me seeing it about nine times, before I understood what it meant.
I thought it was in the sense of, like, “yeah, man. Every man returns to dust. Recycling takes us all, in the end.”
Nah, it actually just means “we all need to participate in recycling.” That is NOT where my headspace has been at, since around the end of '19.
Hahaha, I can totally relate to such moments! 😅
I kinda like your interpretation better than what it’s supposed to mean, though. 😂
Thanks. I kinda like mine better, too. The more I think about it, the more I consider the intended interpretation to be MORE nihilistic than my own. It’s like “yeah, we all have to recycle, or else it’s pointless, so if you recycled and not everyone else did, then you wasted your time.”
My version is just, like, a universal truth.
Recycling isn’t forever either, though…
I could be wrong, but I read somewhere you can only recycle plastic twice before it becomes unmanageable, and after recycling for over a decade we’ve currently reached the last stage of recycled plastic made of already recycled-before plastic, which would then mean that all those twice recycled plastics going around as drink bottles and alike now have reverted back to their original state and problem: They are back to being non-recycleable waste. 😅
I have heard so many different permutations of that whole thing, like: “well, this thermoplastic can only be recycled twice, but this dodecaphrastic ultraplastic can be recycled more times, but then the energy it takes to do the sorting and melting makes the whole thing meaningless, unless you’re talking about aluminum.”
It’s to the point where I can no longer keep track of which story I tend to believe.
