For some reason I find it absolutely hilarious that some idiots have downvoted this.

"Please keep your existential dread to yourself as we only really want to hear problems that can be fixed with a pithy Lemmy comment."

Sorry bro, not much consolation but I feel you.

I would say the point of my comment was more on despair than dread.

And anyone who downvoted probably didn't get that I was speaking from my own life, as addressed in another reply. Guess that's my fault for trying to make it not about me.

Though either way I can't actually see the downvotes. None of them are federated to Kbin and on the Lemmy side the score seems identical now and no vote tracking to show negatives (unless that's only if you have an account).
