'Distract' from what tho?

From the fact that there's no actual meaning to our lives or need for us to question our existence

we exist and that's it

we developed our memories and conscience to survive

the same way many other animals developed other types of abilities

so we find all these things to distract ourselves from repeating these same old questions that don't have answers

and that only make people feel worse when they think about them

we either distract ourselves from them, or we create answers to them that we enjoy

It has a right to exist

just because it has a right to exist doesn't mean it benefits you in any way. Taxes have a right to exist but that doesn't mean they will benefit you (at least part of society).

This isn't contemporary culture

it's what humanity has been doing their entire history

we find something to cling on as our "meaning"

be it survival, religion, national pride, self-development, future generations, hedonistic activities, working, whatever you can think off

and that is all it is, our way of distracting ourselves, these minds we developed for survival

and happy are those that can do it successfully

Agreed.
Socializing? Going out? Partying? Having fun with friends? Dopamine.
Travelling? Hiking? Rowing the boat? Adventuring in the mountains? Dopamine.
Working? Love your job as a Workaholic? Constantly involved in problem solving? Dopamine.
Escapism? Drugs? Weed? Reading fiction? All Dopamine.

It might seem nihilistic but it really isn't. That's just how our body is structured. We need to find what kind of dopamine our body needs and is good for us. Unless you start meditating and clear your mind off. But at that point, you're just vibing with the world, like a spectator.

Everything that you hate about your life

Man, that's just your depression talking😭

I mean it's certainly a legitimate way to see things but I disagree. Don't wanna argue with you tho

It does benefit us though. Because it puts an end to all those random politically esque
threads.

Just a general one is good.

Why? this doesn't have to do with my depression though, this way of seeing things doesn't actually make me feel sad

It makes me feel kinda inspired and happy tbh, it makes me feel like the meaning of life can be whatever i want it to be for me, and that i can focus on getting what i want, not what other people tell me to get

you see how can it be a positive thing?

Yes I do understand now how you mean it

What i'm saying is:

Nothing matters

you get to choose what matters to you

have at it

Nothing matters

Everything matters, every decision you make, every thought you have

worry about everything
