"Life isn't all fun and games." Not with that attitude it's not

It's genuinely amazing how many people who tell me that you can't choose to be happy will shortly thereafter, in some awkward arrangement of words, essentially tell me that they have chosen to be *unhappy*

...in the sense that they actually grasped well in advance that whatever they're doing now would not be something they would enjoy, but they did it anyway, and they're doing it anyway, and somehow the idea that they could plausibly stop and do something else is subversive AF

It's a funny thing. I'm a dropout with a swiss cheese work history. Just about the only things I'm actually qualified for are skipping in parks and reading books and thinking strange thoughts, & it's not hard to find people who want to help *me* do that, but *they* just... can't?
