Negative thoughts are good indicators.
For me it tends to be the early warning alarm.

You say you're not afraid
but I harbor my own doubts
because you only let in what you want to see
and you keep everything else
you keep everything else outside ...

RE: Humans are scum
Honestly I was just feeling depressed; I can't help but mull over the awful things people have done to each other, continue to do. So much wasted, untold suffering, so much stupidity. I'm too much of an idealist for my own good and it leads to abject disappointment in the ways things are.

Know that feel. I support ethical cosmic antinatalism in theory too, just not on practice.

(IOW morally speaking I think it would be better if the universe never existed and no one was ever born, but I love my life and my friends and in practice I think life is awesome while I usually ignore the bad shit. I have to compartmentalize how personally and ethically I am completely different and I have to avoid being too moral for the sake of my health and sanity, which is necessary to maintain in order for me to be a better friend).

I prioritize being a good friend over a good person. I can't cope with life if I had it the other way around.

I love life but I hate the world

Thinking about the world a lot has made me suicidal in the past and since then I have made a full commitment to live so...

...so...
so

FUCK THE WORLD


My life satisfaction is phenomenal and the world can suck it.

I haven't got a too high opinion of us, as a species, either. But, as I said before, individuals can still be nice, even if their political, religious or social affiliations are abysmal. It's only the group, motivated by whatever, that gives me the creeps. One of the best proofs for Darwin's theory, since we're acting the same way as our closests relatives.
