Life is awful.
It isn't like one's books or movies or games. It's boring and uninteresting at best, and downright painful and torturous at its best. There's no such thing as superpowers or magic; there's no adventures or treasures to be found, or grand mysteries accessible to laymen requiring only bravery and determination; no fantastical cities or strange lands, no monsters or villains or hot aliens or spirits.
It's considered a "good" life if one manages to secure a job where one sits down all day doing something that isn't interesting in order to earn some representations of paper in order to pay for some necessities and luxuries, rinse and repeat. That is the literal definition of a "good" life.
Do you ever read true crime novels?
Yep, the world's dogshit alright.
I wish religion was real so at least there'd be an explanation for why everything sucks (the fall of man).

This has always bothered me as well. We can't even make an attempt to have an adventure in the real world because traveling costs a fortune and you would have to jump through thousands of hoops to get time off of a job for it.
My only hope now is in:
1. VR taking off (this may take longer than previously thought considering the price)
2. Space exploration (slim chance of happening while I'm still alive even though I'm just 18)
That's why space exploration interests me, but we're going nowhere with that
I hope Elon makes it to Mars

Wait until goverments around the world realizes how useful for pacification is VR, just after machines start to replace low skill jobs
