Do you deserve free time and freedom? And what about love? ❤️

I believe most people deserve all of that.

[–] Faydaikin 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Deserve is a strong word. But free time, freedom and love is what I work for.

[–] sfera 3 points 7 months ago

You probably implied it, but I think that it doesn't matter what one deserves but what they actually get and if they are content with that.

[–] sexy_peach 7 points 7 months ago

I deserve all that!

All of these, and a high five when I do a good job

I deserve treats and belly rubs.

I think I deserve not to have to justify my existence through labor, especially when the disparity between the value of my labor and what I'm paid for it is determined by forces outside of my control. I would love to wake up one day and not be obligated to work in order to live, even if it's just a meager existence, because as it is I've already pared down to very little outside the essentials.

I don't just deserve them, I think they're basic human rights.

Freedom isn't something you do or don't deserve, period.

"Free time"- time when we can determine what to do, rather than being coerced into doing what a company wants by the gating of necessities behind monetary systems of control- is the default state of all creatures.

Love is something the human mind and body require.

Hi Millie if you need some support feel free to pm me about your situation, maybe I can find something. I know it's hard when you're inside of it.

[–] millie 3 points 7 months ago

I appreciate it. I sent you a message.

Me to others: yes.

Me to myself: maybe, depending on the day.

I'm probably too critical towards myself.

It's difficult being friends with yourself.
