I don't see what trusting your loved ones has to do with anything, 🤔, you can also verify things for yourself.

The power of being dumb.

So. Australia, is it real?

@Fireflash Same

Maybe devout ones, but people can still take the spirit of the book to heart while pursuing a life of science.

I can't wait for the day spaceflight is more commercially available

@Moist Mayonnaise Flat Earthers got offended they got called stupid by local scienceman

@I-VaPE-ChEMtrAiLS College doesn't teach you real truth? Are we talking highschool or university, college doesn't really have a definite use.

Although, I'd have to say the skills you get taught, and the avenues that are opened to you for further education, are more than enough truth. You can prove things that have already been proven, or you can go out and prove entirely new things.

😏

@MikeyD540 No, I'm about to go to university for a bachelors in computer science

Because I want to do something with my life 🤔

In my spare time, I study what I can about mathmatics. Granted, it's not much right now, I'm only on a highschool math level, but I'd like to go further than that.

Woops

Also, god, it fucking sucks being stuck only being able to do dead-end jobs like retail or customer service.

I don't know how people go through their lives content with those sorts of jobs, I hate it man.

>Student loans

😏

I'm Australian, $80,000 of ZERO interest student loans

<:GWtoshFeelsWowMan:405382553906839552>

I mean that'll still get you through one degree

I think the cost of the degree I want to do is $9,200 AUD per year, for 3 years.

It's pretty cheap, honestly.

@Hugh Damn, nice.

Not having a scholarship doesn't hurt me as much, though. Given the great state of our welfare system.

Nothing wrong with falling into line, it's better than living through my life believing shit that isn't real.

Yeah well all the money I'm gonna be earning isn't

Key to happiness my bro

@I-VaPE-ChEMtrAiLS 👀

Can I get a translator

I only speak in obscure Australian dialects

@Hugh Oh no I know what it's like being a failure

I'm currently one right now

I have no qualifications, no experience, my best bets for a job are shitty dead-end retail jobs

I'm at rock bottom, so at least I can only go up.

I don't know, if you at least *achieve* something with your life, you can stop there, and say you've done something.

At least you're not content with being a literal nobody who will never do anything worthwhile in your life.

You've *done* something

yeah

I live in Australia

Of course i'm upsidedown <:GWchadMEGATHINK:366999806343774218>

Oh shit speaking of which brb

I gotta go de-rust my ground harness

<:GWchadMEGATHINK:366999806343774218>

Actually 😏

I finished 12th grade 😏

Also fuck me I need to stop procrastinating

I still need to read this book

i'm 2 dimensional

<:GWowoSmug:358701954018574368>

@I-VaPE-ChEMtrAiLS R-rude oniichan~

<:GWonoDontBully:385631390038884355>

Good thing I'm not religious

If I was i'd probably be more into the greeks or the norse anyway

Odin is a cool fucking dude

I wanna visit Greece though, I really wanna visit Athens.

Shitposts in here all day from the looks of it

It's gonna be a while until I can visit Greece though, which sucks.

I really wanna visit the Parthenon and the Acropolis

My soul is thousands of years old

It used to belong to a cute girl that was also a dragon

@Soldz (CF) uhhhh it's fine she's actually thousands of years old

<:GWowoKannaBear:358701785617268738>

<:GWowoKannaGun:358278230341320706>

@Soldz (CF) 😏

Man, if I hated money I'd probably be living in a trailer

With the rest of the bogans

Same

Money lets me buy cute things

😏

>Girlfriend

<:GWmemetownOMEGALUL:380058735214723072>

That means I gotta support another person

But I could be alone and have more money

Which = more anime girls

Yes it does

I'm pretty fucking happy right now

Hentai makes me pretty happy too

@Soldz (CF) Every time I buy a new cute anime girl I feel great

and I feel happy every time I look at them

They're so cute

@Hugh Well, you can get that purely off welfare

Being a NEET is pretty easy in Australia

But god it makes you feel like a worthless human being, I was a NEET for a whole year

I've never felt worse

It made me feel depressed, honestly. It made it so hard to do anything.

It is a bit weird

I know quite a few people like that, actually. Complete fucking retards, they blame the government for all the issues they cause themselves and then go back to Centrelink

Who said it's free

You still need to work for your welfare

It's paid for by taxes to help the people who for some reason can't earn their own money, and there's systems in place to weed out the people abusing the system.

They're not infalliable by any means

I don't mind paying tax to help other people

Pay you back???????

they're already paying you???????

Lots of things are rude

Welcome to the real world

tax is a good thing
