Eynon all our lives are ultimately entirely meaningless so I dunno why you worry about it.
I mean we're each one of 7 billion people on a rock hurtling around in a teeny tiny corner of existence. It doesn't mean shit. None of it will ever mean shit.
So just relax and enjoy the ride bro.

Of course free will exists.
Why else would I possibly get up early to work out?
You can't argue that free will doesn't exist while also being perfectly aware of all the terrible shit we force ourselves to do. Because honestly, if it didn't exist, I'd just f**k bitches, drink, smoke weed and party all day, everyday, as that is my nature.
