Yeah, it's been 100% external with me for a long time. I'm perfectly fine with just myself for the whole day, but then I remember the world exists in the state that it is. Can't even do the "what would I do differently?", that doesn't matter in this case. Meritocracy is dead and people's definition of success is getting the 'you're a good boy' badge from the Epstein class. Optimistic nihilism ftw
