>-cold and nearly silent marriage, with sex, with pic related
Terrible intimate relationship.
>-alcoholism + small manageable heroin addiction
Self-destructive substance abuse.
>-wear comfy all black all the time
Pseudointellectual fashion sense. Even "Dark Academia" is less cringe than this.
>-hyper minimalist house with almost no possessions except some extremely expensive furniture and art
Soulless and pretentious living environment.
>-work is publishing marxist/poststructural articles in know academic journals
Only a handful of people in the world read your work. You wield no cultural influence, have no legacy.
>-no children
You at least have the sense not to reproduce.
>-grey hair by 29
You are unable to deal with stress, may even relish it.
>-suicide around 55

>>18577737
No one think you're cool for fetishizing your shallowness and cowardice. People can still tell you're pathetic no matter how detached you try to appear, so you are better being brave enough to be true to yourself and pursuing your actual dreams, because you aren't fooling anyone.

Ideal life style?
Wife with short hair and big hoonkers who will jump me everytime I come home from work. At least 5 children that I can read fairy tails to. Two dogs, probably dalmatians. Free days spent hiking, boating and cooking in nature. Taking the children to grandpa and grandma, while going on date nights. House needs to have a nice fire place, and a island kitchen.

Some of that sounds good, but not all of it. My own life:

-luke-warm and companionable marriage, with sex, with a wife who grew fat over several years of marriage.
-functional alcoholism with expensive booze (mainly spirits and wines) + occasional tobacco pipe use
-wear comfy wools and tweeds in the cooler months and comfy linens and cottons in the warmer months
-clean, functional house with understated modernist furnishings, many books, home-brewed/open-sourced technology, and little clutter
-comfy garden that supplements food supplies throughout the year and provides ingredients for making wines and liqueurs
-(very) occasionally have short poetry published in minor literary journals that nobody reads
-no children (yet)
-salt-and-pepper hair in my mid-30s
-no plans for suicide yet but you never know

A mnimalist lifestyle with a trad wife, two kids, huge investments in new technologies, a respected career as a biologist and professor and a literary career on the side would be my ideal. No alcohol, no drugs, no pork.
Free days spent fishig, spending time with old intellectual friends and visiting new places every now and then, but mostly keeping my energy to raising my kids and providing them a worthy education as I am an introvert.
