depressing memes

If you like depressing and nihiilist humor and have an affection for the nocturnal bandits that are raccoons, boy do we have a meme account for you. The Instagram account @nocturnaltrashposts is devoted to pairing cute (and cursed) images of raccoons with sad and sometimes sassy text that, well, feels relatable and real. If you like this brand of animal meme, head to their page and give 'em a follow. You'll even get some some awesome possum memes as a bonus. 

President-elect Joe Biden has been discussing plans to forgive student loan debt and it's caused some controversy on Twitter. Obviously, many people who struggle to cope with the loans are elated. Others, especially people who managed to pay off their own loans, are not too keen on the idea. There's no way to ignore the fact that the cost of a college/university education has increased dramatically over the past thirty years. This leaves many high school students feeling like they have no other choice but to commit to paying banks and loan organizations for decades to come. The struggle of juggling debt with the costs of living a normal adult life is one that's frequently expressed in depressingly relatable memes. While we enjoy relating to other broke adults, here's hoping we see less of these memes in coming years, and more policy changes that make education less of a privilege. 

As the United States plunges deeper into Coronavirus lockdowns and existential dread, we are in desperate need for new indoor activities. Instead of learning how to crochet cozies for every vessel in your home, perhaps it's time to turn to the tried and true experiences of scrolling through memes. They'll make you laugh, and won't leave you wondering what the hell to do with the fruits of your desperation hobbies. Or trying to pawn them off on friends. You'll thank us later.

We're willing to bet we're not the only people trying to find ways to distract ourselves from the real world. As reality becomes more bleak with each passing day, it's perfectly acceptable that weary citizens would seek respite on the internet. One of the best ways to turn the dread into complacency is by mindlessly scrolling your way through amusing memes and tweets. And we've got a whole lot of them right here for you. 

2020 is truly the gift that keeps on giving. Between the election, coronavirus, and all the other fun stuff (constant pain) we're amazed we're even around to enjoy the madness. These memes and tweets really sum up the whole ordeal with accuracy and ease. Here's hoping we make it out alive.

Some people turn to wholesome memes or cute pictures of animals when they're depressed. Others try to unplug altogether. We here at Memebase sometimes prefer the "lean in" approach, instead choosing to scroll through memes that depict the shitty feelings we have perfectly. Sometimes you have to wallow a little to feel better.

Happy Thursday, friends and followers. We're back with another massive batch of memes for people who like their entertainment to be on the weirder side. From morbid humor, to twisted and bleak self-deprecation, we're willing to bet these memes are a touch weirder than you're used to seeing. And we're all about breaking from the norm.

It's been a year. It's been a nightmare of a year, and we've got a whole two months left of it. Between the pandemic, natural disasters, and the election, it's hard to imagine that things could get worse. But we've been unpleasantly surprised by less. We're just hoping that by the time this year is over, these brutally relatable 2020 memes will be a testament to the horrors we've overcome. Fingers crossed.

If you're looking to distract yourself from the responsibilities of the real world, you've come to the right place. We've spent years of our lives procrastinating, so we've got it down to a science. All you need to excel at this art is a finger and a whole lot of memes. We've got the latter covered right here. Have fun. 

These memes are for everyone who is miserable and not afraid to show it. For the downtrodden and depressed, the people who are somehow keeping it together for people other than themselves. The people who suffer through the trying routines and constant agony of existence. We see you. And you're not alone. These memes serve as proof.

Congratulations, internet traveler. While time may seem more like a false construct than ever, you've managed to make it through yet another thankless Monday. If you relate at all to Garfield, that's no easy feat. As a reward for your physical and emotional fortitude, we've carefully collected these moderately amusing memes just for you. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the light chuckles. You're safe now.

As cities begin to open up their businesses and offices after months of lockdown, many of us are getting new jobs or returning to old ones. A lot of people had to work straight through this lockdown hell. No one wants to work 40+ hours a week for a wage that barely covers living expenses, but during a global pandemic our options start to wane and we all gotta power through to get that bread. Unless you're Jeff Bezos or something, these memes about the woes of work-life might deeply resonate with you. We recommend scrolling through these memes while pooping on the clock for a truly cathartic experience.

No watch? We'll give you a hand: it's meme-o-clock. Time to laugh at some timeless memes about all things time-related! We can't get enough of these painfully relatable memes about aging, daylight savings time, and of course 2020. This series of clever memes really helped put our worries about the future into perspective. As time slowly crawls toward the end of a cursed year that felt more like a decade, it's good to remember that things can always get worse. If you think about it, the hindsight our future selves will experience is something to look forward to! Until then, have fun wasting some time with these timely memes.
