But still care about some things.
Care about eating food, keeping your spaces clean enough, and your overall health. Too little care can be a deep hole to climb out of.
I'd file that under bare minimum, self-care yes.
As for holes, we all find ourselves in one sooner or later. No one gets out alive. You're only in a hole if you consider it a hole. Some people's happiness is in avoiding people and playing video games, that's only a hole if you want it to be and choose to internalize other's judgment of it.
The greedy powers that be have made the act of trying in this civilization into a trap for their exclusive enrichment at the expense of those they trap, and eventually those they trap stay trapped out of the sunk cost fallacy. Don't fall for it.
