Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.
Rules:
-
Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.
-
Respect one another.
-
All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.
-
Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.
Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.

I rarely or never reach out to people. It takes energy and honestly don't care to do it that much. I think this is just common and it's why communal spaces are important, you show up, see other people, and hold each other to account if one is missing. We all are dealing with our own life's, if we are to keep track of others it becomes tedious.
Social media gave us the impression of being in these comunal spaces, but it was all hollow without the same social rewards our brains crave and need. Now we lost all that. We only date through apps and we only keep up with friends if we see their stories online.
Not sure if it's a real fact or one of those made up things we Al collectively believe... But don't we have a hard limit of thr number of close people we can keep track of based on our initial tribal evolution? Iirc it's around 50. So yeah if someone drops off the radar on social media it's hard to notice sometimes.
Reaching out is often intimidating, it comes with the risk of being rejected which can hurt way, way more than being forgotten.
