A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.

I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!

Only goofs & silliness. (:

Sure, we can put whatever labels we want on it. But unless they come with useful counter measures, they're kinda useless. I think a lot of us are just lazy at heart. It's hard to get started on stuff and especially as we get older, we get exhausted sometimes just thinking about starting something.

Yes there very much are useful counter measures for executive dysfunction and healthier ways to look at it. And one core part is acknowledging that it's not laziness

I won't tell you what to do, of course, just make sure you're not putting yourself in a self-defeating thought pattern

But also, as you said yourself, getting exhausted. That's not laziness, that's exhaustion.

Also we are living in a completely fucked up materialist society where we are nothing but consumer cogs in a system that is devoid of any real purpose and direction and we are simply eking out our daily lives waiting to die.

There's also that.
