I pass the butter
To get my mom to quit college and stay home.
To crush my enemies, see them driven before me, and to hear the lamentation of their women!
To have an existential crisis because of a Lemmy thread title, apparently
This is a bit of a weird question to answer because it depends a lot on context.
At its core, the purpose of life is to reproduce and guarantee your bloodline passes on to the next generations. That’s kind of the heart of evolution. That’s great and all but that just means we’re here and we have a lot of time in between all that if we even want to follow that purpose.
Beyond that evolution purpose, I believe that the goal in life is to get as much enjoyment out of life as possible. A lot of that is based on experiences and personal growth. But the reality is that’s all a personal choice. You get to make up your own purpose, and that’s just one I’ve made up.
You do you, but life is short and we don’t get a second chance.
Lives don’t have purpose
What is the purpose of your video?
The crappy video attached to this post made me think ads made it to Lemmy.
Fun fact: did you know that I can’t remove the video from the post after it got posted at all?
Unfortunate.
I am not looking for a purpose. All I care if I or people close to me are having a good life. It is not always good or perfect. But overall, I am happy at where I am but I also have space to grow to.
Try to make the world a better place for my having existed. I’m not doing too well, but I’m trying.
To pass butter.
Convert wine into urine.
There isn’t one. I’m just here until I die.
What is the purpose of a snail or a polar bear or a single blade of grass with their life?
That is my purpose.

That is my purpose.
So… reproduction? Have offsprings, then die?

You’re imposing a purpose on them, not all of them will reproduce
If that is your interpretation then maybe that is your purpose.
If you ask a biologist this will probably be the answer.
That’s the purpose of a species, not of an individual. I’m not sure they actually have i dividual purpose. Sure they want to survive, bit that’s more of a goal than a purpose.
Survival and reproduction aren’t the purpose, they are simply structural. Perhaps, simply as experiences, they could be of the purpose.
