Wish i still had this hope

I haven't been to a social gathering or had social contact outside like a minutes small talk at work in like a decade. I don't feel human anymore.

Resolved to lose my virginity if it was through an escort. Looking at some online (but was planning to do it when lockdown ended), found one i liked and puter her username into google and it came up with loads of shit like videos of her as a kid and her general internet presence from when she was a teen. Feel absolutely disgusted with myself and completely put me off the idea. Will just stay celibate i guess...

>tfw mid 20s and still working retail
How do i get out?

Working in retail sucks, but especially at christmas

Working just takes up so much energy bros. As a NEET i was in the best shape of my life, was reading a book a day (or near enough, obviously long complex books took longer) and still had plenty of time to do other things. Now i'm just tired all the time and don't have the mental energy to read after work. I'm still young and don't even have responsibilities like kids ect, must be even worse for the average person who does. All my energy goes to being productive for someone else and personal cultivation is out the window. It's no wonder pop culture is so shallow and the average person has no interest in 'high' culture. I see myself turning into a sloppy pig who only has the mental energy to consume shit, knowing i need rest to do the same shit all again the next day.

Why yes i do let my boss suck out all my surplus value, how did you know?

Books about feeling old when you're young?
