WHY DID THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN TO ME?

This seems like a very self-centered viewpoint. There are actual, real people out there who have actual, non-imagined problems. There are people trapped in the limbo between being unable to afford college and being unable to get a job without a degree. There are people who don’t have access to clean water. There are people who live in warzones where both sides are just as despicable as each other. Feeling sorry for yourself to this degree over problems that don’t exist just isn’t healthy.

Also there are people who lost loved ones in the Manchester bombing. Or to cancer. Or in a car accident. There are parents raising kids with severe disabilities. There are people who don’t feel safe walking down the street because they’re black. Or brown. Or female. Or trans. There are people who are living on the street. People wondering how to put the next meal on their table. And on and on and on.

“Why did this have to happen to me,” as stated in this thread, is pretty insulting to people with real problems.

Trump has made those people’s live much, much worse when he decided to run for president, was actually elected (via broken electoral system), and set horrible policies into actions. That’s why I’m so upset about everything. These are the people I fear will be dead by the time he leaves office. When I said “why did this happen to me,” I meant why did I have to live in such a shitty time in history, where everyone who is not white, male, or straight is suffering unprecedented terror. And there will be no future where we can recover from this, because climate change will erase everything we have accomplished in the last 12,000 years.

First, you say he will never leave office. Now, you give a tacit admission that he will leave office someday. Pick one, frevious! My whole life depends on it!

Then do something about it. Make phone calls to your representatives or something. Donate time to a phone bank to help a better person get elected. Donate money to a better candidate. Go to a town hall and tell your representative what’s what.
But stop bitching and do something productive.

Can we just make this thread about anime like your last doomsday thread?

Nah. Make it about the Superman villain instead. He’s a poor villain with a stupid design who wore out his welcome almost as soon as he was created, but he’s still more worthy of discussion than frivolous’ fever dreams.

But I’m a senator!

Just kidding I’m not.
Or am I?

Who knows there might be some senators who waste time on these boards, and maybe they will read this thread and have their opinions changed.

If that’s the case, I would hope their focus would be figuring out how to get the OUT released instead of burying themselves in pointless trivialities like politics.

It’s not going to stop Trump from withdrawing from the Paris agreement. It’s not going to stop the GOP from gerrymandering their way to one-party rule until 2030. It’s not going to stop 23 million people from losing their health insurance and tens of millions more from falling into poverty and homelessness.

Even if I do something about it, all I would gain is that I would disappear, probably be shot execution-style, and my remains dumped into the Pacific Ocean.

How convenient, everything that would take some effort isn’t an option. Thankfully complaining on an internet forum is still free and you can do it while sitting in a chair or even lying on the bed.

I really didn’t like the creature design in ‘Batman v Superman’.

VIZ TOP TIPS! - PARENTS. Impress your children by showing them a floppy disk and telling them it’s a 3D model of a save icon.

Trump just decided to exit the Paris agreement, LIKE I FEARED. His legacy will now be cemented as the man who destroyed humanity. He should have just nuked us and end our misery right away instead of drawing it out for 80 years. Hope has officially died. History textbooks 30 years from now will be describing the end of civilization at the last chapter. He will become the first human being responsible for killing more than one billion people. My advice: don’t have children, quit your job, hole up in a room and wait for sweet death to arrive. June 1 2017 is now the day life ended for good.

With the new season of Twin Peaks, I would expect so.

Nobody fucking cares that the world has just begun to end. I WAS RIGHT. Trump has just established himself as the greatest mass murder in human history. It’s stupid that the second biggest polluting nation is withdrawing from the only pact that could save us from extinction. WE ARE IN PURE HELL I DID NOT DESERVE TO BE LIVING IN THE ENDTIMES LIKE THIS.

At least it’s pure hell. Nobody wants unpurified hell. Ew.
