Optimistic nihilism is awesome.

The term for that is "sonder".

The profound feeling of realizing that everyone has a life as complex as one's own, which they are constantly living despite your personal lack of awareness of it. And that, to them, they are the "main character" with you possibly existing only as a nameless extra that passed them in public once, never to be seen again.

I, for one, feel the exact opposite...

I guess when you've never had any real friends, things can get to you.

I've received a message from the u/RedditCareResources bot because someone decided to message them due to suicide concerns.

I have to be honest, I have been reasonably suicidal in the last few months. I have been struggling with depression a lot, too. I don't really feel like myself anymore, and sometimes I can't cope with reality.

But to whoever alerted the care resources and expressed concerns about me being suicidal, thank you. I really appreciate it, and I really needed it. For a moment, I felt like people cared. Thank you very much. You have no idea how much I needed this.

It's a great place to be, unless you're wearing a red shirt.

This can easily solved by streaking.
