What legacy will you leave behind, anon? Are you prepared to die forgotten?
>>
>>41439462
I'm a genetic dead end while people who shouldn't be reproducing at all are shitting in the gene pool at an alarming rate. I've made peace with that.
>>
everyone is forgotten on a long enough timeline. it's not something I bother thinking about
doing things for recognition is cringe, and hoping for eternal recognition is a game for retards
>>
>>41439462
It'd be nice to die saving someone and be remembered as a hero, although that's a childish fantasy every man has. It'd be even better to leave something behind that could help others learn. Besides that why would you care? What are you a woman?
>>
>>41439471
Not true at all. Some's art will never die as it is timeless
>doing things for recognition is cringe, and hoping for eternal recognition is a game for retards
correct
>>
>>41439462
I don't care much about my own legacy. I accept being forgotten and I know that's a guarantee in the end. But I care a lot about the longevity of the things I like, and I worry about those dying and being forgotten. I'm not prepared or at peace with the idea at all
>>
>>41439470
LMAO. And that’s why you’ll die lonely.
>>
I do not know the future and thus refuse to worry about it
>>
>AREN'T YOU AFRAID OF DYING UNKNOWN LIKE 99.99% OF PEOPLE?

no
>>
>>41439749
it's not about dying unknown to the cattle. I think it's important to leave something behind no matter how niche.
>>
I have kids and if I get grandchildren they'll remember me but after that it's likely the void. Such is life.
>>
>>41439791
create art
>>
>>41439462
only a vain moron would care about bullshit like that

>>41439762
>I think it's important to leave something behind
it isn't, everything is forgotten eventually
>>
>>41439584
I'm not that anon, but you're a gaslighting archon nigger
>>
>>41439521
check back in 100,000 years and see if anything is remembered
>>
>>41439762
Pure vanity. Do your duty and greet death with a smile on your face and no thought for the morrow.
>>
None. I built a DLC (as a hobby) for a certain game, but the world does not want to pay me, so nothing will be released.
There will be nothing left, and it suits this world, since it is a world of pure evil. The only thing humanity deserves is to be ruined by its own hubris. I dont need to do anything about it, just let things run their own course.
>>
>>41439462
Every idea I've ever had was already thought of by someone before me so either I'm not very bright and have nothing worth leaving behind or true novelty is a time critical limited resource and human creativity follows the same universal laws of entropy as everything else.
>>
>>41439462
Nothing, I'm fine with that
Yeah, I'd love to die as the last human being of my species, as a forgotten species from a bygone era
>>
>>41439462
Yes don’t like humans saying my name all the time just make Friends in your life at a cafe or liquor store or internet idk
>>

>Every idea I've ever had was already thought of by someone before me
Biggest whitepill ever if you can appreciate the infinite fountain of knowledge at your disposal. You have the blueprints for how to reach higher levels of consciousness at your disposal and a mountain of inspired works that you could never consume in one lifetime, be grateful you don't have to figure everything out on your own like the greats before us.
>>

>>41439883
what a pessimistic view. Not saying i'm any better, but at least I'm frustrated at the idea of not leaving anything before dying. you guys gave up on the idea
>>
>>41440128
difference between frustration and acceptance of what is extremely likely. inspiration is divine anyway.
>>
>>41440071
The creative genius of other people overwhelms me so I find myself just consuming most of the time, which is a sort of trap I am aware of.

Not the anons you responded to
It's not pessimistic dumbass, it's REALISTIC
In fact
Because you FEEL frustrated at the prospect of leaving nothing behind
Your view is the innately pessimistic one - believing that YOU are the special little man and struggling against your own lived reality
Accepting and working with our own human circumstances and limitations whether known or unknown will ALWAYS be superior to being goaded into chasing meaningless endeavors
As implied by faggot op

That just life. nothing last forever and everything will be forgotten.
Its not a matter of if but when.
Its more important to live for yourself when you are alive not for when you are dead.
>>
>>41440128
I have given up because of my own observations and realizations, yes
but you should never create with the intent of leaving a mark
create for the present and not out of selfishness
>>
>>41439462
memories and impressions left on the people who will die with them.
my dreams have the bad luck of having me - it looks like they will all die, kicking and screaming.
I'll probably die when I'm not ready but never having truly lived life, and wouldn't either given a second chance.
My funeral will be a burden on those obliged to take care of it. My assets and time and struggle, erased like a save file on a rented game.
>>
>>41439462
Hopefully.
I've done some objectively horrible shit.
Probably better to die and get away with it. At the very least in this physical plane.
Even if I don't, the entire concept seems egotistical.
Who am that I feel I need to burned into the minds of the people around me?
>>
LEGACY POLICE THERE IS AN ERROR
>>
>>41439462
>Are you prepared to die forgotten?
I'm obligated to. If there is a memory of me beyond the mandatory government records, there will be attachments made from other people and that will entrap me on this planet.
>>
>>41442295
CATHERINE ZETA JONES!
she dips beneath the lasers
Woah oh oh
CATHERINE ZETA JONES!
she has entraped me
And Sean Connery
Woah oh oh
Oh
Ooooh

>>41439462
Legacy? I don't care about the humans currently living, why care about the humans living in the future? The newest generation coming up is even more retarded than the one that came before. At this rate we'll all be replaced by robots and AI.
>>
>>41439462
>What legacy will you leave behind, anon? Are you prepared to die forgotten?
None.
Yes.
It's the destiny of 99.9999% of every human being who has ever lived. On even a minimal timescale, EVERYONE is forgotten.
