I'm noticing this becoming stronger as I age for some reason lol

I'm not happy about it - quite the opposite, really - I can definitely share in their pain and I do sympathize and hate it for them

it just seems more palpable these days somehow, IDK

like e.g. at work if I'm feeling like shit and I'm in my own head, well that's normal. but then if other people start doing it too, for some reason it makes me laugh. like not at them, but just like "man, I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way"

maybe it just helps me get out of my own head and makes me realize that I'm not the only one suffering mental issues, IDK. it obviously shouldn't make me laugh or smile to hear that other people are having trouble =3

apparently getting older = getting more irrational every day for me

what are your issues/experiences with hearing about the misfortunes of others?

like I'm feeling so much better now for some reason watching a match of Kyrgios having meltdown after meltdown

(video doesn't embed) - it's the tennis player Nick Kyrgios wilin' out in a match, just a pleasure to watch

is it just because I share in his (mental) pain I guess? like I know what it's like to get to that point in a certain mental state and it's very difficult to get out of it, so I guess it's just best to kind of laugh it up and just view it as entertainment

maybe temporary psychosis is just funny? (I know this isn't really psychosis but it's like hypo-psychosis )

I choose not to feel bad about my feelings

does "better them than me" count? cause then I feel like a lot of people are happy hearing the misfortune of others. or rather happy it wasn't them? is that different? I feel BB has strong thoughts on this scenario

Sorry to get political, but this seems to be the over-arcing philosophy of MAGA

^this isn't a deep philosophy, it's just a superficial occurrence :3

my brain doesn't tell me that

my brain says why is that happening to anyone
