Society gives you plenty of goals to achieve. Do you really believe pursuing a relationship is the only real goal you can work toward?

Yes, and I'm tired of pretending it isn't. I'm sorry I'm a human, not some higher being that exists above natural constraints of biological brain that spent millions of years evolving around the concepts of "be a member of a tribe" and "have a family".

My tribe will fire me the second I stop being useful to them by the way, so yeah.


Hmm. Well, this might be the first time I've been described as "some higher being", so... thanks for that.


You're welcome


It's a horrible goal, too. Programming is way better than (and mututally exclusive with) being in a relationship!


You can do both!
