A lifes only pointless if you make it that way. We're all gonna die, so im gonna live life the way I want (while respecting others of course).
To be fair also, 20 years ago I couldn't afford any of the "toys" I have now, so I enjoy them as I had always wanted to. I love being transported to 1991 when I turn on my Genesis.
Is someone at a dead end job with 5 kids growing up in a crumbling world leading a better life? To them, maybe, and they can do what they want. I only hope they teach their children not to hate.
Now I also have real project cars and house projects "adulty" shit, but really thats all just playing disguised as adult. Painting a room or putting new wheels on your car isnt necessary, its all (more expensive) play.
Now its also good to give back to the community. I kind of do that through my full time job already, basically keeping the Infrastructure that makes your food up and running, so I consider that a good thing. Id like to volunteer too but im kind of an introvert that way and its hard to find the time between work.
That and generally not being an asshole and being a tolerant (of everyone except nazis) person, thats my goal in life. Its not lofty, but I like where im at.
