This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Look up Maslow's Hierarchy.
Anon is enjoying every creature comfort the planet has to offer, but they are still missing the entire top half of this pyramid. And you need that to be happy.
Edit: to anyone returning to this thread.
It's easy to see how the worst mechanisms in our society cut into this model. Not having enough money for basic needs, being too isolated, or not having enough time to yourself, are all issues that track through the very shape of our society and employment issues in general. I don't have answers for everyone. But it sure is easy to spot the problems.
What I do know is that it's important to keep trying to fight for your best life and don't settle for long if your needs aren't being met. Also, invest in people power even if you have money. After all, you can't buy friendships, it takes time to build them, you actually need other people to be completely happy, and it's probably the best safety net you can get.
Funny I used to have those things but then someone that acts like they are God fucked with my life.
