There's a bunch of really cute pony fanart from the latest episode, but I don't want everyone losing their shit over non-animu content, so until someone says it's not banned from this thread I'll just say people should totally go check that out. <3 Big Marble <3

I don't have a purpose in life either.

I just want to live until I'm tired of it, which I expect won't be soon. I enjoy the things I enjoy and avoid the things I don't enjoy. When I no longer enjoy the things I enjoy, I search for other things to enjoy.

I don't see why you would want to be born in a time where a purpose is simply given to you by some external source, be it your country that equips you with an unhealthy does of patriotism, or your local religion that indoctrinates you to follow a questionable belief-system.
I don't need these things. I just need my brain and this world, things or people that I can interact with.

You do nothing with your life? Rest assured, the vast majority of people only contributed to humanities advance in ways that negligible, you might as well say that they didn't contribute anything at all. That however, is good enough for most of us. What else is there to do? Just live your life and then die, like the rest of us.

Those people were shells in every meaning of the word, and shells they received.

There is no way of actually describing what I feel for that time period, loving it so much that I'd willingly give up advanced health care, a safe home with little possibility of dying from accidents and with food securely on the table. I'd sacrifice it all except that one person I hold dear, to live in the past.

Call me a fool, but I just don't belong in the present, among the people I hate and living a lifestyle I find exhaustingly unsatisfying. Sadly, I could not choose where and when I would be born, so I'll make do with what I have and dream of how it might have been when life had a true meaning.

It is quite funny how today we have all these laws that guarantee your safety and retribution in case of a loss of life that practically scream "every life matters" when 99% of people are merely flesh bags; shells without life in them, whilst back in the old days, a life didn't matter much but was lived creatively, with resourcefulness and extreme dedication towards a goal - in other words, you TRULY lived your life, even if you died in a ditch at the age of 18.
