Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

I have had all of those bad habits for almost 40 years and unfortunately I'm still alive.
I am pushing 40 unfortunately. I've held on to this shit life for way too long.
20, according to my birth certificate. In truth, I feel like I've gone way past my deadline. Been dreaming of escaping for as long as I can remember. Teetering on and off the edge, the only thing holding me back are my responsibilities to loved ones. Not much of a life.

I'm 46. I'm probably the minority in the group since my wanting to CTB is due to a condition I developed in my mid thirties which causes me chronic pain and disability. I never wanted to CTB when I was healthy. I always was aware of how lucky I was to be healthy and figured I could handle anything as long as I had my health. I am really surprised how many people on here are so young (20's and younger). It seems like there are so many young people these days who are so unhappy. Maybe I am just more aware now but it didn't seem to be that way when I was that age. Its really very sad and concerning. I think this world is just getting worse and worse in every way imaginable.
As a 26 year old I can attest to this sentiment. Every day I see on the news how the world is crumbling to pieces with global warming and how societies are breaking down, not to mention Covid grinding hospitals to dust with rapidly rising Covid cases. There's very little to convince me that this planet will be saved and there'll be a Happily ever after for my generation. I'd rather walk away while it's still possible to avoid such misery and unending hardship.

i feel you, although i'm 10 years younger than you. It is really hard to life when you can't trust your body to do the things that need to be done. i always wanted to build my own house and grow a lot of food or just hike for days. well, good luck to you!

I am 24 and deep into pessimistic philosophy, I've read everything by Schopenhauer but don't share his enthusiasm for denial of the will to live, resignation, because this practical ethic is impossible for me.
Mainlander hanged himself, I wonder what thoughts ran through his genius mind when he was about to CTB. I like to believe he was wholly disillusioned with the blind and unintelligible character of the will, and that he triumphed the fear of death, survival instinct and all the horrors of ending one's life. I haven't read any of his works, can you suggest what I should read first?
I loved The world as will and representation and his Parerga (especially on suicide, women, religion and many other topics), fourfold root of principle of sufficient reason, the world as will.
I also have read multiple times every book by Friedrich Nietzsche, though he sometimes manages to convince me against CTB, that fucking genius thinker.

In the kingdom of th blind; the one-eyed are kings
facing 50, but I have good genetics (except for the addiction thing!)
Though drugs / farmlife /gym bunnyin' keep me young
(oh, and botox and bodyshop washing grains and serums from middle east (that are probably made from tigers balls, they were a 'gift I really can't chuck it away now...)
(the kids I teach, don't believe it when I say my age) inside im akashically aware, so I'm ancient.
maybe its my attitude, maybe I'm a grooming predator :: my sister has concerns...
when I was in my twenties I saw this tragic old drag queen od on the dancefloor @Heaven under the arches. It was quasi reigious (mdma ghb speedball cocktail gets the blame),
But that would be the best way to go. Music and lights ( & a sweaty dancefloor!)
I'm feeling my age lately, :: not exactly wise, erm rather... ahem: 'experienced'.
Loved my insanely difficult life, but I'm weary.... I wanna go home.
(cue that track from RockyHorror...)
22 and life just keeps getting worse year by year. It's like being in a badly written story designed to keep the character (me) depressed no matter how hard I try to improve my life. I'm always getting set back to square one. At this point I'm getting sick of trying to make things better and am just starting to want it to end.

25 and that makes me sad. I told one person ever that I probably would never make it to this age. I hate it. Worst year ever. If only I could go back in time.
