I feel you 100%, I have the same voice. If you want to watch something truly depressing but extremely relatable, the episode called "stupid piece of shit" from bojack horseman covers the topic in a much more real way than any cartoon has the right to do so.
We can get through it though, the voice is a liar.
I don't... Hahaha this is one of the things I most often speak to my counsellor about though and I'm working hard on it.
My issue is more around productivity (achievements), so what I work on is doing things for the sake of doing them, not for the final product, i.e. doing art for the process or even playing a game just to play and not for literal achievements. Learning to just enjoy things for the process or just doing 'nothing'. They suggested I could just come home and sit and watch my cats and... Just do nothing. I'm still working on that one.
We haven't gotten that far into external validation, but I think learning to have compassion/love for yourself helps with that.
Its a great initiative but from the looks of it, the creators are taking a break. I wonder if there's any other organizations (not shitty websites that rip designs) that are selling something similar towards a good cause.
Honestly, I had that one and this GIF of a fat weiner dog chasing batman saved to my bookmarks for a long time because they bring me so much joy.
With my current cats I have a clear favourite so I would go to her, and then the other one would run in the room and demand the attention because he is a needy little shit. I love him though, he just never lets her (or anyone) have a moment of peace.
I had the same experience and did feel badly for them as well. For a lot of them (especially middle aged men in my experience), they just seemed very lonely. I miss a lot of those regulars, they were generally good people.
There has to be more of a reason that all the anti-trans legislation have gone throughover there (I mean, aside from JK Rowling's massive lobbying). Laws might not represent all of the people all the time, but they certainly represent a part of a population.
I've been to a pro-pal protests few around different cities and have never met any real anti-Semite on the side of the protest. I have, however, met a couple of counter protesters that hold the Israeli flag yet proudly call themselves white supremacists.
I don't have time to find it right now but that GIF or video of the cat in the bee costume falling over gets me every time
Found it 
And (at least for me) the most rewarding!
