1:22 "What is this 'walking for walking sake?' ... WHERE AM I GO-ING. Because isn't depression that feeling of futility in life? So then to get up and walk with no destination is futility manifest." This is everything.

Naomi is my absolute favorite comedian ever

[@blaircat3231]

This is so accurate and sums up my current struggle. I've been forcing myself to get out and walk but I always need a goal or destination. I found food is the one incentive that will get me out of the apt even if for just a little while and I'm walking so it's totally okay to have that burger.

They both seem like good friends who like each other, and they have conflicting opinions (the baby thing) and it doesn't make them hate each other. thats cool
