Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I just feel like there is no future in this country. Even though my mental health is better these past two weeks, I wake up before I'm done sleeping, even though I go to sleep at a better time. It's so frustrating because it cuts into my ability to make progress on my hobbies like language learning and exercise. I don't think I have slept 8 hours in over half a year, and at least a year and a half if we're talking uninterrupted sleep.

And I have to go back to school to start working on a real career (I have a degree but I don't use it) but it seems like it's pointless because this country is going down the drain. This is not a place I want to live in for much longer. I really don't want to spend years at school in this country. It's a fucking dump. It's so depressing to hear about other countries with their cheaper housing and education costs.
