If your alternative meaning of life is harnessing as many feel good chemicals in your brain as possible, that’s an objectively pointless existence
If we’re all just particles and fields, we might as well be as thermodynamically productive as possible
Who says that burning more fuel is a good goal? Productivity is a tool for people in charge to make you feel like you lack something and you have to burn to be valued. Get some therapy instead: all that stuff is toxic and unneeded. Feel free to burn your lives to capitalism and big tech, for no gain
