Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Pessimists expect bad things to happen, we don't seek them out. That's suicidal. So in general we don't wake up and think "I'm awake again, guess I have plot armour."
For example when I woke up today, I checked if my stomach hurts anymore because I've been having issues these last few days. My general happiness comes from bad things not happening rather good things happening. Good things happening still make me happy, but also suspicious.
Everything has a cost and i am wary of what the costs may be.
Bad things can't happen if we're not here to witness them. For there to be no end to the horrors, we must therefore be immortal.
Ah, immortal not in body, but in spirit. I was stuck on the mortal shell, which has a clear expiration date. No comment on immortality, but I do expect its existence.
