This is strange to read because I'm an unemployed and seemingly unemployable software developer with dwindling savings who is seriously considering a peaceful way off of this planet. There's a point where it goes beyond depression and just becomes sheer pragmatism. I just don't want to starve and lose everything.

It looks like this fellow was intelligent, talented, good-looking tbh, and yet ended up broke somehow. It's strangely serendipitous to come upon an article like this at this particular point in my life. Seeing this happen to someone else certainly doesn't lift my spirits.
