Try to find meaning in whatever works for you. A lot of people find this in things like relationships, family, hobbies, interests and activism. Essentially, don’t let the bastards grind you down. Existential philosophy may not be everyone’s cup of tea but it can be helpful in navigating these kinds of issues.
There’s this app called cranky uncle and it goes through things like this and then helps to you learn how to identify them. It was developed by a university researchers in Australia with the aim of improving people’s ability to recognise misinformation
Firstly I just want to say that this is really interesting post and I love that you’ve asked this question.

I think life is maybe similar to being in a long term relationship. There are times when every little thing life does annoys you or times where it’s just eh and you realise you need to actively spice things up. And then there are times when you are completely overcome by joy thinking about how much you love life, how much you’ve been through together, and how excited you are to spend the rest of your lives together.

Hopefully a step in the right direction towards a more sensible approach to drugs overall.
Looks like he’s the internet’s new boyfriend. Keanu must be devastated.
I’m having a similar experience in realising how much toxicity I’ve normalised on reddit. Going back on there now feels so absurd.
They’ll be the first to complain when the quality of their reddit experience starts to noticeably decline. I don’t know how many people here have used the reddit app, but it’s pretty shit. Especially after the recent changes. And personally I don’t really want to use an app that limits moderation and has excessive advertising.
People are likely downvoting because you used the equivalent of a climate denialism dog whistle. It comes off as bad faith because when most people use the term climate change they mean anthropogenic climate change.
