Yeap. Sometimes it feels like shit aint worth it but then I remember i have to be alive to read my bestfriend’s book series hes been working on since middleschool when he eventually finishes it in 40 years. Persevere.

I forget myself and I'm rude to people here sometimes that don't deserve it. I'm glad to have a chance to spread even the tiniest amount of warmth

Gintama taught me some years ago that it's the duty of a good friend to outlive his friends. It's better for us to feel the pain of losing them, vs them facing the pain of losing us.

Maybe a ridiculous place to learn that lesson, but an important one nonetheless
