And the stupid fucks still decided to have kids.

By your logic, the first humans should've stopped having kids and died out the first time they faced any sort of existential issue. Life's hard yo, that doesn't mean it's not worth living.

It really isn't worth living.

No matter how easy, hard, successful or failure of a life you live, the end result is identical.

That's life. What value you assign it is up to you to decide. Philosophy is how I find my value, for others it's religion. Ultimately, that's something you have to figure out for yourself.
