Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

What bad things will come next?

My main problem is the future. My prospects are horrible. The next painful period will be when i am working again. I cannot cope with the stress. What is soon happening to you that scares you? Or just means pain for you.

To me the question in the title really sums it all up. Life for me has been defined mostly by suffering, and worrying about when the next episode of pain is gonna hit, like a slave fearing when they're going to receive their next lashing. And it really is a matter of when, not if. I think about:
Ageing (which is inevitable with our current woeful understanding)
Diseases (that at any time I could develop)
Being the victim of violence (someone could just decide to fuck with me, mug me, stab me, who knows)
Poverty and homelessness (really looking like my future. Makes the above point more likely)
These are only A FEW of the THOUSANDS (millions?) of very real concerns that I have to worry about and they each repulse me beyond words. It's truly a vile reality we inhabit, to contain these evils and more. Humiliating, degrading, undignified horrors that for me, can never be justified. NOBODY can tell me that life is just wonderful. It has pretty elements, but in the aggregate it's not pretty (from my perspective). There are too many bad apples in the orchard called life. How anyone happily tolerates these and other evils, is something I can't understand.

I'm scared of getting older (nothing I can do about this), fatter, never loving or being loved again, going crazy for real, ending up as a homeless if I decide to become a NEET again, etc.
Having to go back to work, losing more hair, diabetes destroying my body in many different ways, aging in general, mental health continuing to deteriorate, car breaking down, computer slowing down and eventually failing and keeping me from working on music and video projects that are my only way of coping with existence, having to say goodbye to my wife one day, somehow having less energy than I do now, potentially losing the few friendships I have, sinking deeper into debt, etc
Just more days of existing, dealing with chronic health problems and the same cycle of emotions. The only thing we are certain of happening is death. We don't know how bad things will get and there is no limit to that. Just simply the human body can torture us in many ways we are not prepared for. It is the inevitable in this existence.
