#everything is meaningless

So I was talking to peeps at work about retirement etc and we’re all jaded 20-something year olds, and we were joking about retirement ages. As one does

But I’ve realised since I’ve been POMO I’ve been living like nine of it matters. And I only realised the other day that it’s true

I’m not making it out this alive either way. And if I’m allowed to retire, I’ll be too old to do anything. Or I’ll not have enough pension to live off

But who knows what’ll happen in the next 60 odd years? Humanity might not even be here

I know it’s a very nihilistic view, I’m here for a good time. No matter how well I eat, or how often I exercise, or what I do, I’m still gonna die. Be it from natural or man-made causes, I’m gonna die one day. That’s life

So sometimes people will criticise me, like ‘oh you could save that money’, 'smokings bad for you’, 'that tattoos permanent’.

Babe, none of that matters. My money, habits, tattoos, all of me, will only last as long as I do. Nothings permanent. I could be hit by a bus tomorrow. Nothing in society is real. Its all constructed by us to give ourselves meaning. We’ve created a whole complex society for ourselves to make our own lives harder and, frankly, I don’t care. I’m gonna live my life now and I do not give a single shit about the future

Nothing is guaranteed and nothing is definite. I’m here for a good time and that’s it
