I am totally on the bottom right group.
My people
Our numbers are uncountable
Yeah, I'm in the void. I have no idea what I'm doing and I'm sad.
I know a guy who is three of these things. Goes to the gym 6 days a week, works in a hospital, starting a business, has a wife and a kid, and he still manages to have time to hang out once or twice a week. Man is as successful as I am not
As someone who is some of those things as well, I would love to know what the wife and/or child are doing during all those activities. Because something has to give when you're doing that much.
In my experience, that balance is really hard, and even in the most hospitable, high-quality-of-life places, that balance is not exactly always something that is nurtured and valued by the systems in place.
I think he really is just built different. I'm good friends with both parents, and knew his wife long before he did. Both of them are working on higher education, kid goes to daycare most days every week. It's not like he never sees his son either. Usually when I hang out, we're watching his boy while we play BG3, which is nice because he can just walk away for a minute whenever a diaper needs changed
Having recieved a large sum of life insurance money after his father passed away certainly helped with the house buying and the car maintaining and the education pursuing, but his time management is pure skill
A distinct lack of "drugs/degeneracy" category
I think that's a subset of "disappeared". If you followed up on the people who disappeared, it's a coin flip as to whether they just hate people or have fallen on hard times.
Hey I take offense to this ! I hate people AND I do drugs AND I'm living my best life !
Some of us are just made to do drugs on their own in the woods.
yeah I feel severely underrepresented
Do some drugs, you’ll feel better.
I'm happily none of the above.
You're on Lemmy, you're the bottom right corner
Drugs
Obsessed with work is the most obnoxious type of person. It’s a validation seeking behavior that I find intolerable.
We do the best we can with what we know at the time. We're products of our parents and environments. You can't blame somebody for that.
I’m the one who disappears for a while lol. “Is he in jail or in the Cayman Islands… who knows”
Disappeared can have a lot of dif meanings behind it these days.
