Happy Birthday, /mlp/! Congrats on surviving another long year! Surely your life has improved since the last time we celebrated, right? What have you accomplished these past 365 days?
This board is the worst it's ever been and should just be killed off. Nothing of value is left here.
>>41475064>Surely your life has improved since the last time we celebrated, right?I've regressed. It will continue to get worse.I'm free falling to rock bottom.
>>41475064I haven’t done anything since last October where I spent over a whole year dreaming and telling myself I’ll do something soon, the day since when I started is soon approaching and I look and feel worse than ever before. Just tired and without friends, no waifu to love either
>>41475095>>41475097Stop plagiarizing my life.
>>41475082Yeah but if got nuked now where would you go? Whats going to occupy the time you spend here shitposting about overweight cartoon equines from a toy commercial show?
>>41475064FLYING HAT
>>41475064>Surely your life has improved since the last time we celebrated, right?My BMI went from 23 to 32.5
>>41475064I forget how stacked late september to early october is with MF -> 4chan Bday -> Anni. Cheers Anons
I learned to forgive the people who wronged me. They aren’t a part of my life, but I have come to accept that being mad at them for who they are won’t make them good people nor make me feel better. My outlook has shifted tremendously towards being more understanding of others. I’m not happy, but at least now I am calm. The happiness thing is the next project. It took me a lifetime to learn to let go of all of the guilt and blame. I’m sure it will take another lifetime to learn to let go of the pain and sadness. But, as long as I have you all, and as long as I have Twilight, I know it’s going to be okay. Even if I end up homeless, I’ll still find a public library to shitpost with you all for a few minutes before getting escorted out.
>>41475097>I haven’t done anything since last October where I spent over a whole year dreamingI told myself I was gonna draw a shit ton this year. I drew 15 shitty pictures. >>41475101>Stop plagiarizing my life.I'm trying
>>41475107You can go on /v/ and find the same rot, the only difference here is the plastic colored wrapper.
>>41475138I wish to become like you someday anon
>>41475064It's not /mlp/'s birthday, that's on January/Febuary it's 4chinz's birthday, so I don't have to improve anything until then
>>41475064I still have a job, I had legal troubles by a crime I didn't commit (but got scott free and compensated), I can take care of my family in peace, and I'm starting to roll the idea of travel or go back to college.Doors are open, I'm just trying to pick a road.
>>41475097seeing the party hats on all the posts and realizing that its been a whole year and i cant count more than 5 notable things i did off the top of my heads really makes me mope, hopefully this month i can turn things around to save this year for being a total waste
>>41475138this anon got buttfucked by his dad LMAO
>>41475229We are our habits. What you do currently is all that you will ever do. You will never be more than what you are. Our success is measured by our ability to get things done. You can’t get things done. You are not a successful person. You’re just… (You).
>>41475064Less fatLess retardLess burdened At this rate I will have enough money to buy a plushie in 8 months
>>41475064managed to save enough money to buy spirit supporter tier for mare fair and able to participated in the secret santa and mlpmg event in the previous year. i always dream of participating in said events since i was college student and being able to afford such luxury is sort of my own achievement
>>41475097>no waifu to love eitherI’ve watched the entire show about 6 times now and the mare of my dreams still hasn’t came to me, I love them all and yet I still feel as if there is the one for me out there.
>>41475392Watch other gens. I came close in G4 but My waifu was in the 5th.
My life keeps getting better thanks to pone
>>41475064The dimensional merge will come this year right?
>Surely your life has improved since the last time we celebrated, right?I developed alcoholism, ironically my drink of choice has become strong Cider. I've been able to start reigning it in recently but I've definitely given my liver a pummeling. Also stuck in the same job since my bosses gaslit me into believing I'd get a full time position if I worked long enough, but a year and a half later I'm still a part-timer. That being said I' finding a new job soon, I'm lucky that I found a place under $800 a month because if I didn't I'd probably end up living with my parents.
>>41475573Something, far, far betterhttps://youtu.be/1yYytFIQkLs?si=q9YCLK8_ceT0juVbhttps://youtube.com/shorts/FEjmWslrShY?si=gojvkI7bc103wiSphttps://youtu.be/vZL9wA85y_Y?si=zn43l9g2Rdmqf5Ji
>>41475064I'm just as do-nothing and friendless as I was a year ago; the only difference is now I'm just a bit more open to the idea of blowing my head off
>>41475064I was making progress last year and then I regressed. I hope things don't get worse but I suspect they will.
This board is so painfully fucking slow and boring now. >>41475082 is sadly right. Let's just get rid of it.
>>41475700This is ridiculous, the board gets a shitton of usage unlike places like /diy/
>>41475700>>41475082
>>41475064I'm trying really hard to save money so I can buy a 20k kit car but I'm pretty bad with money but on the plus side I've gotten better so if I keep trying I might just be able to get it next year! The only problem is uhh... I'd still have to purchase an engine separately
>>41475747This board is fucking dead during night in America.
>>41475700Sorry zoomer that you don't have your every-10-second new dopamine hits. Grow an attention span maybe.
>>41475127Stop eating so much, you fat fuck.
>>41475064I'm not as depressed and I've started working out while trying to be online less often
>>41475064weight loss and a solo. still have a lot to do in 2025, but one of the primary ones is that I need to go to MF3
>>41475064>4chan is now old enough to drink in america
What have I done since 01/10/2023?Got a shitty job for $200-$250.Made some shitty AI cards.Got title to an apartment I already lived in.Started building up a book collection (in addition to a bunch of old random books, there's already a rulebook on Shadowrun 3E and Cyberpunk 2020, as well as the Bible and I Am Legend.Been through a few old games.Still working a shitty job, collecting books, and playing games
>>41475064I found girlfriend, got her to make me a tattoo for quarter of the price and then I dumped her. And moved away to a cooler living place.
>>41475935Because 6 copypasted IWTCIRD threads was needed right.
>>41475064I've gotten some really good work promotions and am making enough money to where I can move out of my parents home. But they're letting me stay for a few more years If I want, so I might take advantage to save up and put a down payment on a house.Most of my life improvements have happened in the last month or two. Started working out more and have been losing a pound a week. Been writing and creating stuff in my free time more often in honor of my waifu. I've felt more lonely than usual, but I think that's a side effect from having a lot of fulfilling yet isolating hobbies. I'm really hoping by next year I've turned at least one of my creative endeavors into a part-time job.
>>41475064Our heroes.
>>41475095>>41475101I got 3 jobs and lost them all this year. Last job I was fired for cause, better yet a safety violation (I still contend there was zero risk), which I think is a black stain on all my applications because it took over 2 months just to get a part time wing frying job. Still no schedule yet..Finances are bleak. I don't go out unless I need to anymore, gas is expensive.
>>41475064Bought a house in cash for cheap in a small rural and dying town. It's a nice house, though, even if there's little to do in town and it's probably going to be a ghost town in thirty years.I've got internet and the local grocery store is a block away.
>>41477020if you have a remote job, that could work, but you're gonna want a region with enough people to at least justify keeping the internet running...
>>41477149Anon running a small ISP with his waifu's name on AS could be funny.
>>41475097>I spent over a whole year dreaming and telling myself I’ll do something soonthat's the problem Anon, you tell yourself "soon", you should tell to yourself, now.Fucking NOW, RIGHT HERE AND THERE, not tomorrow, not in 5 minutes, not after watching this or that or having one last this or that, N O WYou just put whatever it is that you feel need to be done to make your life 0.0001% better within arm's reach and you just do it as often as you can and before you realised it, it'll have become a new habit you can't stop doing.Set yourself a game. everytime you want to post something here, you have to do that other thing that may make your life better first.Life is chocking everyone to death, society isolate the shit out of you and me, love have simply abandonned this earth years ago, but feeling like shit or not about it, that is going to be YOUR decision, not the one of anyone or anything else.>>41475095(you) yeah (you)You know there's a way down and there's a way up and the way down make you sick, that fucking way down is slippery and it's full of hands that want to grab you and drag your shit to a place that is just a little more sad and depressing.you also know the way up, it's a hard fucking road that must be paved with rocks that can only be set in place by bashing your own fucking skull against them, but the sun is at the end of it, sometimes you can even see it from where you are in the dark abyss.My point is, you know where you are and you know where you want to be, you have a goal, you have a purpose, you have a MOTIVATION, all you need now is to act on it.
>>41475064i broke up with my toxic gf, got a better job, practiced and got good at multiple fighting games and tf2, rediscovered my love of cartoon horses, started reading books on story writing and realism drawing, and tomorrow i go on a trip to didneylann with my homiesthis has been a great year so far
>>41477216>you have a goal, you have a purpose, you have a MOTIVATIONNo, I don't. I gave up a long time ago, Mein Führer.
>>41477219Refreshing to see an anon posting about their life going well rather than the usual woe is me shit I see on here a lot. Glad things are going well for you, anon.also cute tixie
>>41475168But where else can I discuss my love of mares?
im trying my best to accomplish Anything and not succeeding
>>41477219Rock on brotha, keep up the good vibes
>>41477323You think you gave up, but you havn't, it's an illusion, it's just one of those dirty hands trying to drag you down, like a fucking root around the foot of somebody digging his way out of a grave he never was supposed to be in, you have to realise that you are STILL holding on, even with this terrible thing you have come to firmly believe, EVEN WITH THE SITUATION GETING WORST! NOW WHAT IS THAT IF IT'S NOT A WILL SO FUCKING STRONG IT GOES BEYOND YOUR CONSCIOUS MIND!It's fucking primal, it's that light inside of you that simply cannot be extinguished no mater how dark the abyss gets or how broken your mind and body become!and yes, you do have a motivation!YOU HAVE ONE OF THE GREATEST, MOST POWERFULL OF MOTIVATION THERE IS!Some people play around it like childrens around a land mine, using drugs, games of chances, alcohol, you name it, all these shit get you to that road that goes rock bottom.It's right there, it's that road that goes down into the abyss and up toward the heaven if you embrace the pain of climbing up, it can turn you into a FUCKING FANATIC and that's what you'll need to become, especially if you see someone else struggling and you wish to help!Your motivation, it's to go the opposite direction of that rock bottom, whatever that may be, your compass is finely tuned now that you know where you do not want to be, you know where to go, you have a course, you have a destination, you know wich way is up and you know wich way is down, there is no but, there is only the absolute fact that giving up is impossible and that better places exists just waiting for you to get there.
>>41477216>>41478374thanks hitleranon, this was very inspiring :)
>>41477344Success is never garenteed, experiance and learning from failure is always a certainty.it may hurt or maybe even be humiliating, but if everytime you fail, you become a bit stronger, smarter, tougher and you refuse to focus on the negative and always try to reach growing conclusionsYou never truly fail.
>>41475064>got a job after half a decade of NEETdom>used my money to go to Mare Fair>written a decent amount this yearThings are alright.
>>41478516>got a jobISHYGDDT
>>41478405Have you ever been homeless? Have you ever truly failed? Has your life taken a serious downturn before? Because this all sounds like naive idealist jibber jabber I've heard a million times. I've been through the spiel before. I was extremely active from 2016 to 2019, and it blew up in my face time and time again. I held on to everything I could think of, and now not only am I back at square one, not only have I learned nothing worth a damn, but I am worse off at 26 than I was at 18. At this point I only live to spite death and go out when I want to go out.
>>41478374I appreciate the kind words, Hitler, but I can't feel anything positive anymore.The ponies don't even make me happy anymore.
>>41478876Friend, do you know what a wolf child is?Have you ever spent entire years not seeing or talking to anyone in a morbid isolation?Have you ever been so mind broken that you are like a ghost with a heart beat?Have you ever been a young teen abandonned and left to deal with a older brother afflicted by schizophrenia?Have you ever been tourmented that some action or inaction could have changed everything?Did it took you 20 years to come back of that situation too and now your youth is gone and almost nobody will ever truly realise what happened to you or even be able to related?Help is not something you always get and it may become something that end up being the death of you.But in all cases one choose how he decide to look at things, if he grows or shrivel like a dead tree, you decide what can and cannot hurt you. What create or destroy you.Be blind to this fact and obsess over failur all you want, just know that as long as you let this have any sort of grasp on you, you'll never be able to move or talk the way you are supposed to, the way you would probably have wanted to.
>>41475064>same sometimes pretty okay, sometimes insufferable job>social skills have turned to absolute shit for some reason, probably due to anxiety and fear of the future>some co-workers and other supervisors/important people in my life have either lost respect for me or grown tired of me>moved out of my parents' place to be on my own>while that's great, my finances have taken a huge hit thusly some of it being through frivolous spending>have to get back into school still somehow>won't be able to graduate until after I'm a wizard>making a couple IRL friends thoughIt's been a very mixed bag, mostly negative somehow. I know not being on this site so much will help me, and I'm feeling a bit better after Mare Fair, but I just gotta not think and just do things. I gotta work at it no matter what.As my dad's always said: If it's gonna be, it's up to me.
>>41475064Not much.
>>41475064I got a gf, she is a lot like my waifu, life is gud
