This image is disturbing..... I can't wait to send it to my kids!

[-] udon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Wim Delvoye for reference. AFAIK it actually works, saw it in a museum once but it wasn't active at the time.

[-] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you, that's wild!

My purpose is to create excess value to be harvested by shareholders in exchange for numbers in a computer that define my worthiness to continue to exist.

I ask people why they have a special butter tray in their fridge

[-] pragmakist@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

It keeps the butter hard and useless?

[-] Entity1@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Going the health route I see. Butter is very unhealthy just like monopoly's go .it's best just to pass it.

[-] Xantar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago

Eating only lettuce and drinking 5L of water a day can also be unhealthy, just saying.

[-] frankPodmore@slrpnk.net 14 points 1 year ago

I think it's a category error to think of people as having (or having to have) a purpose. We just are.

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

To seek out the Holy Grail!

Oh, purpose? I thought you meant AAaaaahhhhhh....

[-] Nemo@midwest.social 6 points 1 year ago

To make the world a better place.

[-] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 1 year ago

To die, and do as little extra damage as possible until that point.

[-] Xantar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 year ago

Try as much as possible to find a hobby that sticks and brings joy.

Depression: Not if I have anything to say about it!

[-] Xantar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

Damn, you didn't have to call me out like that xD

[-] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

[-] sab@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

A worthy cause - keep it up!

[-] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the positivity!

[-] Sertou@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

To keep my family as happy and healthy as possible, as long as possible.

[-] card797@champserver.net 5 points 1 year ago

Work. Feed family. Take dumps. Repeat.

[-] Corno@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

I'm an artist. My only purpose in life is to draw and create

[-] Resol@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I'm basically a rainbow colored punching bag waiting to be used by homophobes (and transphobes) who just happened to train for boxing.

My country is filled with these people.

[-] BugleFingers@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Trying to figure that out now. Waiting on some epiphany

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Trying to beat my brain into submission so I can sleep.

[-] sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Writing books and getting people to read them.

[-] stinerman@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

I'm here to hopefully enjoy my time on this planet and help my wife do the same. That's about it.

[-] paradiso@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

As small of an impact I may have, to make the world a better place. To learn and grow and experience the inevitable pain and hardships along the way. To learn to love and provide for those in need. To serve.

[-] waz@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Take care of my family, and to fuck with people who have too much power or take advantage of other pet.

[-] Mesophar@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Make sure my cat is taken care of, and hope I find a more complex purpose and goal before he's gone.

[-] FerdinandSon@feddit.ro 2 points 1 year ago

Being someone 99% of Lemmy users won't achieve in his miserable life hah

[-] ConstipatedWatson@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago
[-] nom_nom_nom_9999@ani.social 1 points 1 year ago

I don't know. I just wait thing to happen. It is bored.

Why don't the world pick me as main character.

I guess i just an NPC. Perhaps the no-name NPC.

[-] MichaelTen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

To help defeat aging. Read the book Ending Aging by Aubrey de Grey.
