>When do you start feeling older?
for me, it was around 25. a switch got flipped, now there was a gulf between me and my childhood and it's getting larger and larger. haven't felt the same since
for women, it's a little earlier. my friends said they went through a "second puberty" during their early 20s, huge hormone changes for child bearing hips
I felt the gulf between myself and my adolescence begin at 22/23. tbh my adolescence sucked and my adulthood is far better, but there's still some pain that won't go away
After my trip to the mall yesterday, I'm presented with a chicken and the egg kind of dilemma.
Did white people stop going to the mall because of ecommerce, or did white people start using ecommerce because the mall became a live action set for Camp of the Saints?
"retail therapy" just doesn't hit the same with online shopping. physical retail still had the strong advantage of physically holding the item in your hands, bringing it home, and having it straight away. as you've said, this changed once going to the mall became a different kind of "magical" experience
my mall is in the middle of a rebranding
bars, karaoke, bowling, arcade, even apartments
the trend these days is spending money on experiences/entertainment rather than consumer goods
I live in a small town and the local "mall" is basically just a few women's clothing stores in a row along with the worlds shittiest indoor playground.
In the late 90s I worked for L S Ayres in big regional mall that still exists, if in not in the style it had then.. The May Company of which it was a part was bought out by Macy's in 2005 well after I left, and a loyal customer of it I knew frequently complained that it was downgrade that sucks--and I quote. Best job I ever had, in terms of everything, clientele, co-workers, management, surroundings, light work for quite decent pay. (about 20/hr in today's terms) Ecommerce has its points, which are obvious enough when shopping for electronics and other such items that are amenable to objective review, but brick-and-mortar retail will always have a place when it comes to things closer to the skin, that can't be compared unless tried-on or handled in person. Clothing, fragrances, flowering plants, confectionery, antiques almost no matter how assorted the standard thereof. Heavy items remain a mystery to me, since it seems that UPS delivers very heavy items from Amazon at an absurd or arbitrary discount. Retail is a fascinating subject.
What did you want to do when you were a kid? Alternatively, if you don't have some kind of fixed goal or project in mind, what's a load of crazy, cool shit you would do it money were no object? How would you fund it? I'm trying here senpai.

Nothing. I never thought about what I wanted to do when I was kid. I do have things I want to do now but they’re not ultra-actionable. Besides, knowing what you want to do doesn’t really resolve the problem of golden handcuffs. Golden handcuffs is when you want something other or at least don’t want this, but you keep this because it’s so highly paid or comfortable. That’s really the issue. I’m not doing what I want with my life but I’m extremely comfortable.

>How would you fund it?
Even if the issue isn't money per se, what's the missing piece to this thing you want to do and what would it look like if you minmaxed in that direction? Frick it, why not? You're the one who wants the throw the golden handcuffs into the fire. You might be thinking >it's easy for you to say
Which is certainly true however it gets increasingly hard to cope with putting it off as a function of time, until one day you stop caring at all and stop trying and the wrist blisters start feeling comfy. You have to light the arseside fire my man. What's the missing piece!?
Yeah. But you wont like it.
You gotta actually let all that shit just go. Don't try to sell it, just leave it. You have debts? frick em. You have loved ones who would be negatively impacted by you doing that? Too bad, they get to suffer a bit I guess. The thing about golden handcuffs is that they are only locked so long as you value gold (and the things it can get you) more than your freedom. So you just gotta let go of that shit. If it helps you with finality, destroy your possessions, close your bank accounts, and bombastically blow up the relationships that are holding you down. You will go on and you probably will build your life back up, maybe even in a way you like next time. But its going to hurt a bit, and you will feel pressures. Good luck anon.
Dumb question but can you get out golden handcuffs if ur stummy hurts a little, what are the legal implications of a disturbed bowl if you are in debt?
The trick is to just let her talk for about 15 minutes while you ask simple questions
“What did you think about that”
“What are going to do”
“Why would she do that”
If you can manage that for about 15-30 minutes a day she’ll be satisfied and spend the rest of the day scrolling her phone
You can’t be superficial. You have to actually be curious, at least curious enough to let her get it all out. If you can’t be curious about what she’s saying you can be curious about her, the her behind what she’s saying. Ask the questions with ulterior motives. You asked
“Why did she do that”
But really, you want to know why your girlfriend thinks she did that. If you can’t take interest in your girlfriend in this way, you are a bad boyfriend, frankly.

Part of getting older is realizing that if you care about other people, you have to go out of your way to do things you don’t want to do sometimes. If you love your girlfriend, take a sincere interest in her and/or her life. If you can’t give her 15 minutes of your undivided attention with some sincere curiosity then you’re going to be in trouble in the long run.
I am a bitter man, screaming, rolling, yelling, being goofy and shaking like a madman in the meaningless mud that makes up this world. Yes the good is always followed by the bad. Yes, I could get rid of my angst. where would that lead me though? nowhere. The streets of my city are dirty, and so are the people. The angst keeps me away from the filth. Tomorrow I will dress the same way as I dressed today : nondescript. As always the ocean inside will be boiling and churning, waiting for an outlet, a window of opportunity to burst and drown the world. The opportunity will never come. My rent needs to be paid to my landlordBlack person and I need money to get israelitejuice. Another day, another high of sugar. I wonder when was the last time I actually felt like a human being. Maybe the day I stopped dreaming.
Start doing something artistic like music or drawing but keep that shit entirely off the internet or anyone else. I could write a dissertation on this but people today are hyper-individualistic and think a lot in terms of personal enjoyment but they do not understand that personal enjoyment needs to be private. When you do something and seek validation from others even subconsciously, whether that be posting your vacation photos on FB or putting music online, you are sinking that enjoyment into a black hole. It's no longer for you. It becomes about the social act rather than the thing in itself. So many people today do a lot but take no enjoyment from it because they're proxying that enjoyment through the Other. I feel alienated as well and I have my outlet in art and it's like a safe haven. I would have gone mad without.
Wow, the dating apps truly are shit, no matches in bumble, but I know a couple that is this fat plain shut in with a hot babe (they didn't meet on an app), so it seems IRL is the way to go.

I'm scared of my hairline
I'm tired all the time
I can't focus
I have no interests
I'm a virgin
I don't have health insurance
I don't know how to pay taxes
I don't know how to drive

Please kill me if I ever tire of astronomy, botany, music, or dish with neighbors. It's like what Samuel Johnson said about London, only moreso: If you're tired of it, you're tired of life.

The eclipse will reach about 90% where I live, and totality in a sweep that goes from the southern tip of Illinois through Indianapolis. I live in northern central Illinois, and it's about a 500 mile drive or flight at least to see it. Of course nothing apocalyptic will happen: This is the 4th one of such I've seen happen in about 90% penumbra, the last around 2018, when totality also swept the southern tip of this state. In the 90s I even slept through one as it was was happening. When I was in middle-school, in the late 70s, i stayed home from school to watch a mere 40% eclipse happen, by telescope and tree shadows. My dad actually approved of how little shit I cared about the consequences of that.
I think it’s annoying when zoomers pretend their lives are so stressful. I realize that good jobs are hard to come by and the world is weird right now so there’s some sense of anxiety, but most of them are still in college, where they are too lazy and unfocused to try, and spend the rest of their free time scrolling fricking TikTok while not giving anything in particular any serious degree of focus or effort. Oh the COVID lockdowns! I forgot that zoomers were the only ones who had to stay home.
Your life may be fricked but I think if you’re really honest with yourself it will become clear to you that at least half the reason it’s fricked is because you continuously make bad choices, and you know they’re bad choices when you make them. This is really the most dislikable thing about zoomers. I understand that they are really coming of age in a time that is really basically fricked, but the one thing that can never be taken away is a man’s will or his capacity to act and make decisions and yet in zoomers you find this sort of learned helplessness. If the world you’ve inherited is one where the traditional pursuits of life are off the table, identify new ones and get after it. It’s really that simple. Imagine how pathetic a world we’d live in if the saints and heroes only ever commiserated their inability to become an entrepreneur, or a homeowner, or whatever. At some point, you have to make the decision to rise above the muck somehow, even if in an unconventional manner in a pursuit not so socially desirable, and the first step is not being so fricking online. You are all addicts, and to older people you unironically look a lot like junkies when you glue yourselves to your phones. You have to realize that and get that shit out of your life if you ever want to have even the slightest hope of u fricking your life, and if you don’t even try to do that, well, then you doomed yourself. And this process need not be as stressful as you might think. You’re reading this and thinking it’s a tall order but unfricking yourself includes actions as simple as going for a walk without listening to your phone or scrolling on it. It’s really quite nice and not at all stressful. It’s recuperative, regenerative and invigorating even.
You’re only reaffirming what I already said about you and you don’t even realize it. This idea that you have no control over how you conduct yourself in your life is just plainly untrue, but you insist it’s not.
oh you're just making completely unwarranted assumptions and being condescending
Incorrect.
I'm a zoomer and I basically grew up with that sentiment of >we fricked the world its your generation to fix!

They just lack sincerity and rarely feel anything deeply enough. They're childlike in a way that's not charming either. One of them threatened me because I accidentally shared spoilers to a game he was playing (Hades which was garbage). Every single one of them is mentally ill like this. Another one went apeshit because I just gave an innocuous joke critiquing Parmenides. There was another who wouldn't stop berating me to become polyamorous,even though he defended hypocritically defended his other friend who was cheated on, and I eventually got fed up and cursed him.
All of these blue eyed and blonde haired Germanic scum are fricking demons. I hate them.
These "people" can't go extinct soon enough. I've had at least 8-10 fall outs like this with them and could give long stories about it. They're degenerate, hypocritical, insincere scumbags. They should have stayed on the steppes. Jackass pseuds.

I wasn’t calling on you to live like a Luddite. Go and read my reply again if that’s what you thought. You unironically did not read it carefully. What am I asking you to cut out of your life? Being online at all, or being chronically and terminally online?
Why do human beings wear clothes? No other animals does. Why does our nail and hair grow so long.
It's obvious we were synthesized by aliens in ancient times, hence why we act like an invasive species to this Earth. History is not what we're told...
Your replies are what’s baffling. I called you to first and foremost break an addiction to online lifestyle, not to to turn into a hermit and your reply was “um I already eliminated the internet totally and became a hermit ok?” as if that’s actually what I told you to do.
This is why people get so frustrated with zoomers honestly. It’s not even that you are disliked. It’s that it is like we are not even speaking the same language and that is frustration. You unironically don’t listen and don’t take any care to parse what the person is actually saying. I
For the past few months I've been incredibly distraught over the suffering in the world and how little I do to help end it. Not only that, but it feels like any attempts by most people to help others are laughed off or sneered at. I like making art, but increasingly feel that I have to do something to help people, but I don't know what. It's not directionless anger like some Travis Bickle sort of thing, but more just directionless love. I just want to help and I don't know how. I think I could live a good life if I could just find out how.
Do you do volunteer work? That's a good exercise in love. Also look up the Giving What We Can Pledge, give 10% of your income to charity, prove your love is bigger than money!
I used to volunteer, I should start doing it again. I live in a big city, so I'm sure I can find something. As for charity, it feels like most of the ones related to things I care about have not so great records, but I could always be better about finding ones.
So many of the issues I have are systemic though, and as time goes by I find myself more and more considering going into politics (not saying I'd make it, but giving it a try). I don't really want that, but I feel like I could make bigger changes in that sort of position.
Can’t or won’t? Answer with the former and you’re lying to yourself. And you know it.
Since I have to spell it out for you, it was a cal not to achieve something with your life but to live with a certain conduct and will. That’s it. These are basic human facilities all people are capable of at all times, even slaves. It’s a cope to pretend you’re just totally helpless. You choose that.
>I went 2 years with no internet at all only recently coming back because everything is online. Those were the most miserable 2 years of my life. Incredibly lonely.
Stop replying to me if you won’t be honest and consider what’s really being said. If you won’t even listen to reason, really listen and not strawman, then you really are hopeless and I’m not going to waste my time any more.

That's what's on my mind. Thank you for reading my blog.
Your replies prove you are the zoomer I think you are. They’ve only affirmed learned helplessness. You seem to believe the way out of internet addiction is totally eliminating it. It’s not. You seem to believe you literally can’t do anything. You can. It’s just all bullshit, dude. Everything in life is a consequence of will. There’s what really is the case, and then there’s what you do with that. That you can do is a given. Every human life is capable of will, of actions, and of conducting itself in a certain manner. Although certain times will contain certain possibilities, a man is never unable to decide his own action and his own conduct. This is an indisputable iron law of life, and that was the basic point of my original reply. You all responded with this “nuh uh we literally have no will of our own” bs and it’s a cope. Plain and simple. The internet stuff is only secondary to all that.
Thats literally not what I said though. What are you talking about. I'm not debating will. I'm not debating any of that. I'm just speaking for myself. There's nothing I want to do. I don't understand why you've repeatedly ignored that now. I can't find anything to care about. I never said any of the things you quoted in your post.
There's just no action I want to take.
I feel like you're talking past me. You just want to have this argument no matter how ill fitting it is to have it with me specifically.
Anhedonia is typically due to poor nutrition from my experience. You are probably missing fat soluble vitamin A, enough DHA, and important trace minerals.

To be perfectly honest, I wish I had the discipline to eat in the general the way you do, despite being a skinny-fat bastard. I notice the absence of cheese, chocolates, beef, pastries, and just about everything redolent of pizza, dairy-rich tacos, and burgers with great lashings of finely sliced bell peppers and mozzarella. On the other hand, I'm a fan of seafood in general, and wouldn't miss any of that shit if I could eat like the typical rich Jap.

How did you even find my post in this graveyard thread?
They trannified the most beautiful girl I ever knew, cut her breasts off, injected her with testosterone until her voice dropped and she grew a beard... she even has male pattern baldness now. There is no justice in this fricked world
I feel the same way even though I'm a skinny bastard who eats pretty much anything as often as I like. I hate even the sight of paperwork that pertains to ledgers.
Mood is directly influenced by diet and nutrition. For example, pic related is an incredible power food. Eating both the cod liver and its oil is very good. Whenever I eat it, my mood significantly elevated, and this is not do to placebo effect. The fishy taste bothers me though since I was not habituated to it when younger.
I would feel insulted if someone called me a virgin, but only if the person calling me that isn't a woman or pussywhipped. Women think their pussies are the center of the universe and they judge everything from that standpoint, men who need to be on their best behavior or they'll be abandoned are hostages and thus compromised.
One day you will wake up for the last time.
One day you will eat your last meal.
One day you will think of her for the last time.
One day you will physically feel yourself dying.
One day you will see your last sunset.
That day isn't far off.
You want to know why you took my kitty mug? Cause you couldn't find any kitties to rape. Because all the neighbors are keeping their pets inside now because half of the animals in the neighborhoods' penises are missing. He severs them, puts them in the fridge, in various containers, and then I hear him coming downstairs at night with his wienersicles going... slurp, slurp, slurp!
It's honestly staggering how moronic people on IQfy are. You would think a place inhabited by people who dedicated their education to STEM would be intelligent, but half of the threads are filled with /b/ tier intellectuals. Genuine fricking morons who know nothing about the topic they're posting about. I don't know if it's just people from different disciplines within STEM talking outside of their specific expertise, but good fricking god there are some dog ass takes in the majority of threads. I seriously see more knowledgeable posters in off-topic IQfy threads than on IQfy.
Feeling a certain kind of melancholy. I've been overcoming my failures and making a successful life. I've been doing the things I dreamed of and accomplishing my goals. But the pain of the failures and rejection and loneliness of years earlier never seems to abate. There's never that moment when I capture that feeling I yearned for when I was younger. I still daydream and send my mind back to several years earlier and relive and recount each and every mistake I made and re-engage with every feeling of lost opportunity. It's like the difference between going to Disneyland as a kid and going as an adult. The magic is gone.
Peeing yourself is one of the most transcendental experiences you can have. Only when it’s on purpose those. Ideally in public too. Breaking past consciousness. Not giving a frick what others think. There is power and symbolism in it

Gotta day, I did deliberately pee myself once and it was actually a very interesting experience
My dad can't pee any more and needs an operation to get his prostate reamed out.
You don't need to be told that getting old sucks, but you might need to be told that when you get older, as soon as you have any difficulty peeing whatsoever, go to the doctor, no matter how embarrassed you are to get a finger up the ass. It beats badly damaging your kidneys like my dad did.
Alternatively, don't get old.
I know this is going to sound shallow, but I can't complain about it anywhere else. I'm damn close to giving up on writing. I've been posting stuff online for years and while the kind of stuff I've been writing is pretty niche, I feel like it's above average compared to what's available around it. It's barely worth the effort I end up putting into it. I told myself for a while that I didn't need any- and for multiple years I didn't- but now I've gotten pretty damn tired of getting ~100 hits/chapter and literally no engagement on multiple stories. Apparently I did need the attention and I'm disappointed with myself for that. I'm frustrated that I haven't improved in a long time and don't have the capacity to care about trying to improve anymore. It just feels like a waste of time, yet I loved doing it so much for so long that giving it up entirely feels wrong. At the same time, I don't enjoy it much anymore
What's the difference between hits and engagement? The latter means comments or feedback, right?
Either way, unless you're trying to make a career out of it, don't worry too much. Just write for yourself if you want to. If not, that's fine too.
There's some deep irony to the fact that I'm going into education as a career. I have always hated school. Nothing made me happier than to leave school. My life did not begin to improve until I left school. My memories and experiences in school bring me nothing more than regret and bitterness. I hate the education system.
And for some reason it seems like the best career choice for me. I'm almost drawn to it. Is every teacher like this?

I am obsessed with a shitpost I made 6 years ago for sundry reasons. It's very pathetic but there are specific aspects about it which make it unforgettable in my mind. I don't want to reveal much but I put like an hour worth of effort into it and it got 300 replies twice and was reposted a couple dozen more times by others not me. It's very pathetic that I think about this but it gets me to think about other things like how even the dumbest things are up for posterity to view (as long as the archives are up or any screencaps remain). Also it was the only time I ever presented anything in front of a large (Internet) audience and received praise but also criticism. I think about how I did not make that post with archives in mind, and really it was only made to exist in a moment, or as copypasta, briefly, not for eternity. Really though I just have major OCD and this is my latest obsession.
I watched him from behind the fallen trash. His name was "Buddy," at least, that's all I knew him as. Sometimes they called him "Bud," or "Tendy," or "Munchkin"— but to list all of the names they give him would bore even me. I never hated Buddy, and he never hated me either; many times, I would sit from my spot behind the trash just to observe him. Sometimes he would sleep, sometimes he would play, I always loved to watch him from afar. We rarely interacted— I saw to that. I remember the first time that he saw me the hairs on his back stood on end. My heart raced, of course, as the heart of any one such as myself would. I have never really been "acknowledged"— I suppose Buddy was the first one to truly perceive my existence or, really, to make me the sole object of their attention. It flattered and terrified me, and I realized that I would have to hide, regretfully, in my hole behind the trash.
Buddy's nimble footsteps raced behind me as I dug through the garbage. I could feel his small paw clutch at my tail, though it was too late. I had gotten into my hole. I knew he had in mind to kill me, to eat me, to rend my flesh between his teeth— that was alright. I knew he had no hatred in his heart. All that mattered to me was that there was someone that wanted me; For what, I don't care. Buddy became my only friend.

I hate Spring. Always have.
I love the cold weather, I love the smell of Winter nights, I love the way the dead do not decay. Spring is not so bad as Summerー the evils of the season are portentous of the stifling heat, sweat, the bugs and rot, and the people's coming out from the warmth of their homes. No more is the peace of a cold and quiet park at night, or the birds chirping by a still and nearly frozen lake. Drunken revellers party outside and their raucous music and laughter drowns any semblance of solitudeー even the dark streets at midnight become occupied when Springtime comes.
Where I live it's pretty quiet all year round, dare I say serene. In general I prefer high summer over any other condition, for the gorgeous look of gardens, farms, parks, and so-forth. I see and talk with my neighbors rather a lot in summer. As for stifling heat, sweat, bugs, and so-forth, technology has relieved me, for the most part, of all of that since about 1970. Welcome to the First World.
Washington DC Chad here (yes I work for an intelligence agency. No, they don't monitor IQfy or care about anyone here): we had 2 days of gorgeous 72 degree weather and now back to the low 50's for two weeks. Today was sunny, at least.
The quintessential IQfy question.
How the frick do I not lose concentration while reading because after 5 minutes my brain just fades into obscurity or after finding one word that I do not know, it just breaks my flow
Guys, be honest with me. Is Nick Land a Midwit trap?
I'm on the fence about it, but accelerationism strikes me as a snare for morons around my IQ bracket (110-120).
Specifically morons more interested in the humanities than the hard sciences who are Naïve enough to believe Techno-god is going to exist in the near future.
I made my first friend at eighteen; I met him in a shelter off Petersburg. Before then, I lived in an unkind home, sheltered, uneducated, and entirely unknown to the world. I had never even attended school.
He taught me various things— how to talk, for instance, and introduced me to a girl. I developed a timid respect for him despite the fact that he was only five years older than I, and a fellow resident at the "home." My feelings gradually turned to platonic affection, and I, despite my incredibly reserved nature, began to feel as though I could be comfortable around another human being.
It was Sunday, and the overcast sky was visible from the window above my bed— we were to head for Church service in Petersburg within an hour. I cannot say what provoked it, but I found him on top of me. I did not resist. He had my calves gripped in his large hands and lifted into the air, while his groin thrust between my legs. In those moments, I really felt nothing but a kind of "submissive passivity." It felt more as if I were witnessing these events through an utterly disinteresting commercial, besides a strange "shadow" of what I should be feeling. Humiliation of course, but at the same time, guilt. I could feel something shameful as well, a feeling that I would more describe as pain than pleasure, nevertheless welling up inside of me. To be clear, I didn't want to feel it— it reminded me of the times that I would lie on my bed while my father "trained" the rebellion out of me. I suppose that's why I failed to resist.
After some time, and my humiliation completed, he left. I entered the shared bathroom quite shakily, panting, and tried to cause the shameful feeling to leave me. It did not, even after sitting on the toilet for nearly thirty minutes. I would have sat there all day— perhaps starved— if our handler had not called for me. I carried the "shame" inside of me during Church service— and felt as though I were a demon defiling consecrated ground with my unholy presence. I never made another friend after that, and I attempted suicide a week later.
Sometimes I feel like aspects of my personality are damning me to be confused by the awe of existence.
I know deeply that I believe in something. What is that something? I'm not quite sure. I've tried my damnedest to explore and find my home. I've been to all sorts of religious services and spoken to believers and nonbelievers of all sorts. I've visited Quaker meetings, Chabad and Masorti synagogues, Zen and Shingon Buddhist services, Mainline Protestant churches, Evangelical churches, Orthodox Christian services, and I'm visiting a Melkite Catholic liturgy on Saturday night. I want to visit a mosque when I get the chance. I have provided the local Hindu center with sacred plants in the past. There's one Sikh gurudwara in my state. I've read ancient pagan books, both the actual books like Homer and Hesiod to the academic books by Hellenists.
If anyone has advice or thoughts, I'm fricking begging for them. I just need something.
I went to college for religious studies. I've studied a wide variety of religions, from Daoism to New Religious Movements. I wrote my capstone project on how religious outlooks can impact how we treat the environment positively and negatively. I read religious treatises and theological essays in my spare time. I read scriptures of different traditions almost daily.
If I were to boil my most basic beliefs down, then I guess I'd say that I believe the world is good. Nature is good. I have trouble believing in transcendence over immanence.
Over the years i've owned and driven some pretty shit cars, but to be honest I find it kind of amazing how rarely they let me down. The one I've got now is something of a masterpiece, and probably the best thing I've ever owned.
>Pro-Gun >Pro-Universal Healthcare >Anti-Zionist >Pro-Life >Anti-Trans >Anti-War >Don't know what that makes me >Nobody agrees with me on everything >Can't get active in any of them since the general participants will hate my guts if they find out my other views
I wanna just go live in the woods.
I agree with your stated views. I think it just means you're not a conformist or uselessly contrarian on those issues. I find most people that have ridiculous beliefs cannot really articulate their beliefs anyway. (I also want to live in the woods, kek)
Only difference for me is that I'm conflicted on the issue of universal healthcare. I am extremely sickly and certainly a genetic dudー I just don't think it's right that society should be forced to pay to keep its worst people alive.
Cheers anyway, you're doomed to hide your political beliefs from everyone except other schizos.
>I just don't think it's right that society should be forced to pay to keep its worst people alive.
I had the same considerate thought but then it occurred to me that my EU government pays welfare and gives a free house to street-shitting Black person invaders who can't speak a word of my language so they can shit 4 future rapists each and turn my whole country into a subhuman shithole. I'll take my healthcare.
Any criticisms of powerful and influential people which doesn't include an element of hilarity fall flat on the surface which results in none to zero engagement and further empowering the useless to stay on the top
If you set up your mark too far and miss then people will generally laugh at you, that's the way the world works. But it's upto you to either take inspiration from it to do better or let it bring you down, either ways - you at least brought a smile to someone's face as the joker would say
tiktok is a net positive for society and Americans with their short attention spans are too short sighted to not recognise its importance to put a worldwide blanket ban on it
I feel like people who say that literature will disappear are simultaneously too pessimistic and optimistic. Too pessimistic because there will always be a demand, no matter by how slim of a group, for literature, and too optimistic as well, because while literature will survive, the quality dive we have been experiencing for almost a century now is one that is nowhere near approaching its rock bottom - there probably is no real bottom - and will surely make the more discerning of the literati wish that literature could have just stopped existing altogether rather than shambling around like a zombie smelling of rotten flesh.
People are such garbage today that they've turned only doing things for money from a mark of the greedy to a mark of the sensible. Why would you contribute anything for the sake of the absolute Black folk that populate this world?
You should move to China and live out the rest of your days in one of the ghost cities. Heck, if you don't think that's a good idea i might as well go and do it myself
There's literally infinite space out there and you have total freedom to do anything you want without little government intervention, what are they gonna do? Check all the rooms to see where the fire alarm is coming from?
I would take any goddamn job to move out of here but everywhere in Europe they seem to only take in a fellow EU citizen if you have a hyper-specific degree and 12 years of experience in the sector. Oh and you can't be older than 25, and you have to be fluent in the local language.
But if you came without papers on a boat and your only skills are fluency in Baboon and gang raping white girls out of schools you get free money! I love the EU!

Yeah that’s a tough one in today’s society. But it can be overcome. If it’s any consolation, people put a whole lot more stock in your college performance than your high school performance at a certain level. IF you end up wanting sort of white collar or academic career, it’s easier to overcome being a high school drop out than it is a college drop out, believe it or not. You just go get your GED and then go to college and crush it from there on out. Whereas if you drop out of college, nobody cares if you were valedictorian in high school. If you get bad grades, nobody cares if you were valedictorian in high school. Basically high school is just a requirement for some jobs. Nobody actually cares about it. But college? They care about college. So if you want to level up your life big time, go get your GED and take that momentum into college, do community college, public 4-year, and even grad school if you want. You can do it if you want it.
I can do the Australian version of community college which is called TAFE and then I can use my certificate(s) from that to apply to uni, it's basically the same as a high school certificate in their eyes. The great part about uni here in South Australia (I don't know if it's the same in every other state or territory) is that no matter how much your uni costs, you don't have to start paying any of it back unless you're making over your repayment threshold (you can look into more if you're interested, I understand what I said was very vague, I just don't wanna get anything wrong).
Yeah so you’re not an age where you ought to be thinking about if this is the most optimal path, but you’ve got to get moving. At the very least, go get the minimum amount of education required to join your country’s armed forces. Do that not because you’re going to join the armed forces necessarily but because that’s a sort of gold standard signal about what is the minimum socially accepted level of education. Go do that at least. Really, you should do a lot more than that if you post on this board. For better or worse, this civilization highly values formal education. So if you’re smart you should get it, if not graduate or professional education then undergraduate education. And look, dude. You’re 21. Before you know it, you’ll be 30. Life is too short to be sort of aimless. I’m not going to tell you to just do what you want, but you’re at an age where you really should be thinking about what is worth doing with your life, what kind of career and possibly legacy you want to have because I’ll tell you, once you hit 30 it just clicks like how short life is. You get 2, maybe 3 decades to do something and then you hit your twilight years. And 2 to 3 decades is not as much time as it sounds like now. So ideally, you want to identity some kind of profession or endeavor that’s worth dedicating your life to now, and try to set yourself up for that in your 20s so that you’re in full swing in your 30s. Make 28-29 your mental mile marker. Ideally, you want to know what you want and be doing that, even if unsuccessfully, by that age. That’s what would be ideal. So go knock out the education, then do whatever the next step is, either figuring it out or trying this or that thing you have an inclination for. That’s basically all you can do. And to be honest, you’re lucky to receive this advice now. Most guys will never hear this and if they realize it, realize it about 30, meaning they could easily be far more behind at 30 than you could be.
They can do that but the noway they will be able mimic the growth and engagement tiktok gets with the content on there like making fun of stereotypes white people impose on all the second generation immigrants and thirdoids

It's just a girl. Do you never have conversations with girls? Why do you think every conversation with a girl has to lead to a relationship? She can sense your desperation, will think you're alonely creep and will probably never talk to you again. Anon's are so pathetic. It scares me a share a board with many of you.

For super lonely men, women are scary because being insulted or demeaned by one confirms all of their fears and points of self-loathing. It doesn't even have anything to do with a relationship, just the fear that your insufficiency to women will be confirmed.
>Anon on a board asks for lit recommendation >Let's get into a relationship
This is like a really bad foreplay which they enforce actors to play out at the start of any generic European porn
I have no idea how someone in his 20s can have problems talking to women. You meet so many and you're not jaded yet. It's really shit when you're older
>Are anons really so lonely and desperate for women that they aren't honest when a woman asks for lit recommendations?
No my problem was that I couldn't think of anything she'd like. I doubt that she would like to read a book on Indian history.
I'm 21, I just started talking with this 30-year-old Japanese chick on HelloTalk, I have no intentions of trying to date her or frick her, I'm just gonna be my best to be a homie.
Careful. I'm 33 and was talking to a Taiwanese christmas cake, she ended up tracking down where i lived based on a random city photo and arriving at my door one saturday evening. Ended up stalking me for like 2 years.
I really don't get this book's point. But then again Nick Land and Accelerationism just strikes me as an absurd millenarianism.
Even then, I just don't get it.
There's little difference between Nick land or whoever else screaming about how techno-gos is going to kill us all/bring us into Utopia/whatever and Wovoka rambling about how the White man will soon be gone.
Should I do it? Delete the porn that I have? Once its gone, I won't be able to see it again because it was from a paywalled account. But a part of me wishes to get this poison out of me.

I'm honestly glad I never got into smoking cigs despite smoking it for 6 months during my bachelor years. I distinctly remember I suddenly had the urge to puke after smoking at a party. And once I flushed it out of my system I could never touch it again. I heard that the "act" of smoking is also what feeds into the addiction.

I think beig horny is a natural thing if you're not having sex - beating off is a sign that you're missing something, it's not a good sign for sure but we have hands and it's human to feel horny. It's porn that makes shit pathological because it rewires your brain and links your sex drive to porn. It's a drug and deeply unnatural. You're basically getting off to watching other people frick, it's cuck shit. I think most people who aren't too far gone can feel that it's something evil, like prostitution. I use my imagination and my fantasies are as vanilla as they get while the average porn user is into weird /d/ shit these days. Black personed porn is basically scat

If you have any interest in becoming a high functioning adult man, yes. I understand it's tough though, porn is very addictive and mostof us started at a young age.

>When do you start feeling older?
for me, it was around 25. a switch got flipped, now there was a gulf between me and my childhood and it's getting larger and larger. haven't felt the same since
for women, it's a little earlier. my friends said they went through a "second puberty" during their early 20s, huge hormone changes for child bearing hips
I felt the gulf between myself and my adolescence begin at 22/23. tbh my adolescence sucked and my adulthood is far better, but there's still some pain that won't go away
For me, 35. Started getting back pains and winded pretty quickly
After my trip to the mall yesterday, I'm presented with a chicken and the egg kind of dilemma.
Did white people stop going to the mall because of ecommerce, or did white people start using ecommerce because the mall became a live action set for Camp of the Saints?
"retail therapy" just doesn't hit the same with online shopping. physical retail still had the strong advantage of physically holding the item in your hands, bringing it home, and having it straight away. as you've said, this changed once going to the mall became a different kind of "magical" experience
my mall is in the middle of a rebranding
bars, karaoke, bowling, arcade, even apartments
the trend these days is spending money on experiences/entertainment rather than consumer goods
My local mall is full of melanin enriched individuals, I don't feel safe going there.
I live in a small town and the local "mall" is basically just a few women's clothing stores in a row along with the worlds shittiest indoor playground.
In the late 90s I worked for L S Ayres in big regional mall that still exists, if in not in the style it had then.. The May Company of which it was a part was bought out by Macy's in 2005 well after I left, and a loyal customer of it I knew frequently complained that it was downgrade that sucks--and I quote. Best job I ever had, in terms of everything, clientele, co-workers, management, surroundings, light work for quite decent pay. (about 20/hr in today's terms) Ecommerce has its points, which are obvious enough when shopping for electronics and other such items that are amenable to objective review, but brick-and-mortar retail will always have a place when it comes to things closer to the skin, that can't be compared unless tried-on or handled in person. Clothing, fragrances, flowering plants, confectionery, antiques almost no matter how assorted the standard thereof. Heavy items remain a mystery to me, since it seems that UPS delivers very heavy items from Amazon at an absurd or arbitrary discount. Retail is a fascinating subject.
White people are like 20% of the us population at most

Shot in the dark here, but does anyone know of any good addresses to the problem of “golden handcuffs”.
Stow all your money away somewhere you can't touch it and live like your starting out from zero all over again.
I don’t think that’s really a solution for me because my question is less about what to do with the money and more about what to do
What did you want to do when you were a kid? Alternatively, if you don't have some kind of fixed goal or project in mind, what's a load of crazy, cool shit you would do it money were no object? How would you fund it? I'm trying here senpai.
Nothing. I never thought about what I wanted to do when I was kid. I do have things I want to do now but they’re not ultra-actionable. Besides, knowing what you want to do doesn’t really resolve the problem of golden handcuffs. Golden handcuffs is when you want something other or at least don’t want this, but you keep this because it’s so highly paid or comfortable. That’s really the issue. I’m not doing what I want with my life but I’m extremely comfortable.
You know what is super actionable? Paypalling me $2000
>but they're not ultra-actionable
Please see
>How would you fund it?
Even if the issue isn't money per se, what's the missing piece to this thing you want to do and what would it look like if you minmaxed in that direction? Frick it, why not? You're the one who wants the throw the golden handcuffs into the fire. You might be thinking
>it's easy for you to say
Which is certainly true however it gets increasingly hard to cope with putting it off as a function of time, until one day you stop caring at all and stop trying and the wrist blisters start feeling comfy. You have to light the arseside fire my man. What's the missing piece!?
Two chicks at the same time
Paypal me $2000
Yeah. But you wont like it.
You gotta actually let all that shit just go. Don't try to sell it, just leave it. You have debts? frick em. You have loved ones who would be negatively impacted by you doing that? Too bad, they get to suffer a bit I guess. The thing about golden handcuffs is that they are only locked so long as you value gold (and the things it can get you) more than your freedom. So you just gotta let go of that shit. If it helps you with finality, destroy your possessions, close your bank accounts, and bombastically blow up the relationships that are holding you down. You will go on and you probably will build your life back up, maybe even in a way you like next time. But its going to hurt a bit, and you will feel pressures. Good luck anon.
Dumb question but can you get out golden handcuffs if ur stummy hurts a little, what are the legal implications of a disturbed bowl if you are in debt?
Well it's harder to wipe when your hands are tied
Sounds like something made up corporate jargon
Im spending more time trying to find the right way to study instead of studying
You ever thought about becoming a priest?
Yes actually. Thinking of becoming a man of the cloth anon?
my gf wants me to talk constantly
its driving me crazy tbh
what does it feel to have a gf?
The trick is to just let her talk for about 15 minutes while you ask simple questions
“What did you think about that”
“What are going to do”
“Why would she do that”
If you can manage that for about 15-30 minutes a day she’ll be satisfied and spend the rest of the day scrolling her phone
Its not that easy. Shell accuse me of being superficial or never saying anything on my own.
Feels ok but not as amazing as ud might imagine.
You can’t be superficial. You have to actually be curious, at least curious enough to let her get it all out. If you can’t be curious about what she’s saying you can be curious about her, the her behind what she’s saying. Ask the questions with ulterior motives. You asked
“Why did she do that”
But really, you want to know why your girlfriend thinks she did that. If you can’t take interest in your girlfriend in this way, you are a bad boyfriend, frankly.
Well I think im curious like that but apparently it doesnt come across. I dont know how to change that. Its like my quitness is seen as a sign of disinterest even though im paying ull attention and try to think of things to respond with.
Part of getting older is realizing that if you care about other people, you have to go out of your way to do things you don’t want to do sometimes. If you love your girlfriend, take a sincere interest in her and/or her life. If you can’t give her 15 minutes of your undivided attention with some sincere curiosity then you’re going to be in trouble in the long run.
they say that depression is just giving up on your desire but I dont even know what I've given up in the first place.
I am a bitter man, screaming, rolling, yelling, being goofy and shaking like a madman in the meaningless mud that makes up this world. Yes the good is always followed by the bad. Yes, I could get rid of my angst. where would that lead me though? nowhere. The streets of my city are dirty, and so are the people. The angst keeps me away from the filth. Tomorrow I will dress the same way as I dressed today : nondescript. As always the ocean inside will be boiling and churning, waiting for an outlet, a window of opportunity to burst and drown the world. The opportunity will never come. My rent needs to be paid to my landlordBlack person and I need money to get israelitejuice. Another day, another high of sugar. I wonder when was the last time I actually felt like a human being. Maybe the day I stopped dreaming.
It's probably meaningless but I feel this post as well. It is both comforting and shitty to know I am not alone in such a visceral way.
Start doing something artistic like music or drawing but keep that shit entirely off the internet or anyone else. I could write a dissertation on this but people today are hyper-individualistic and think a lot in terms of personal enjoyment but they do not understand that personal enjoyment needs to be private. When you do something and seek validation from others even subconsciously, whether that be posting your vacation photos on FB or putting music online, you are sinking that enjoyment into a black hole. It's no longer for you. It becomes about the social act rather than the thing in itself. So many people today do a lot but take no enjoyment from it because they're proxying that enjoyment through the Other. I feel alienated as well and I have my outlet in art and it's like a safe haven. I would have gone mad without.

Wow, the dating apps truly are shit, no matches in bumble, but I know a couple that is this fat plain shut in with a hot babe (they didn't meet on an app), so it seems IRL is the way to go.
All my joints hurt
Eating the vast majority of food only brings me torture
I'm scared of my hairline
I'm tired all the time
I can't focus
I have no interests
I'm a virgin
I don't have health insurance
I don't know how to pay taxes
I don't know how to drive
Laying in bed is the only thing I feel I can do
I want to die soon.
Happy 24th birthday to me
Get yourself some primo cake, anon
I can't eat cake
No. It's not happening.
>It's not happening.
why not? just apply yourself
I just can't do that kind of thing.
can't do?
> can't eat cake
You're telling lies on the internet, cake is the first thing any specialist diet tries to replicate
I don't have a specialist diet
Then why are you not eating cake?
Why are you being like this
Because you need cake on birthdays
You're a fricking douchebag man. Why are you just being obtuse and making my life shittier? I can't eat fricking anything im fricking miserable. I feel like my body is fricking 40
Not him, but did you go to a doctor for this? This sounds treatable.
Maybe if you got off your lazy ass and exercised a bit you wouldn't feel like shit
>virgin
>24
its still late bloomer territory.
t. wizard
I'm 41 but lost mine 20 years ago. Now I'm just bent out of shape over never being able to find mrs right
>I have no interests
Anons always say this but I find it really difficult to believe. There's absolutely nothing that you like doing?
Not him, but this can totally happen, it's usually depression, but more specifically it's anhedonia, which can happen on its own.
Anhedonia can be fixed with effort. I cured my own anhedonia by going outside and getting a life. It wasn't easy but a few years down the road I'm glad I did.
No I can't find anything.
Please kill me if I ever tire of astronomy, botany, music, or dish with neighbors. It's like what Samuel Johnson said about London, only moreso: If you're tired of it, you're tired of life.
Did you think through the implications of this post and what it meant to the people you're replying to
Do you have a telescope? The only time I ever engage with astronomy is when people on /x/ are claiming that an eclipse will be the apocalypse or whatever.
The eclipse will reach about 90% where I live, and totality in a sweep that goes from the southern tip of Illinois through Indianapolis. I live in northern central Illinois, and it's about a 500 mile drive or flight at least to see it. Of course nothing apocalyptic will happen: This is the 4th one of such I've seen happen in about 90% penumbra, the last around 2018, when totality also swept the southern tip of this state. In the 90s I even slept through one as it was was happening. When I was in middle-school, in the late 70s, i stayed home from school to watch a mere 40% eclipse happen, by telescope and tree shadows. My dad actually approved of how little shit I cared about the consequences of that.
Most people are severe internet addicts. They work and go to school and then spend the rest of their day scrolling and watching or listening.
I have plenty of interests. My problem is not having enough momey for them.
Maybe you should get off your lazy ass and get a life
Kick them right in their face
Make them wish they weren’t born
I think it’s annoying when zoomers pretend their lives are so stressful. I realize that good jobs are hard to come by and the world is weird right now so there’s some sense of anxiety, but most of them are still in college, where they are too lazy and unfocused to try, and spend the rest of their free time scrolling fricking TikTok while not giving anything in particular any serious degree of focus or effort. Oh the COVID lockdowns! I forgot that zoomers were the only ones who had to stay home.
My life is fricked anon there is zero hope.
Your life may be fricked but I think if you’re really honest with yourself it will become clear to you that at least half the reason it’s fricked is because you continuously make bad choices, and you know they’re bad choices when you make them. This is really the most dislikable thing about zoomers. I understand that they are really coming of age in a time that is really basically fricked, but the one thing that can never be taken away is a man’s will or his capacity to act and make decisions and yet in zoomers you find this sort of learned helplessness. If the world you’ve inherited is one where the traditional pursuits of life are off the table, identify new ones and get after it. It’s really that simple. Imagine how pathetic a world we’d live in if the saints and heroes only ever commiserated their inability to become an entrepreneur, or a homeowner, or whatever. At some point, you have to make the decision to rise above the muck somehow, even if in an unconventional manner in a pursuit not so socially desirable, and the first step is not being so fricking online. You are all addicts, and to older people you unironically look a lot like junkies when you glue yourselves to your phones. You have to realize that and get that shit out of your life if you ever want to have even the slightest hope of u fricking your life, and if you don’t even try to do that, well, then you doomed yourself. And this process need not be as stressful as you might think. You’re reading this and thinking it’s a tall order but unfricking yourself includes actions as simple as going for a walk without listening to your phone or scrolling on it. It’s really quite nice and not at all stressful. It’s recuperative, regenerative and invigorating even.
There's literally nothing we can do though.
You’re only reaffirming what I already said about you and you don’t even realize it. This idea that you have no control over how you conduct yourself in your life is just plainly untrue, but you insist it’s not.
Incorrect.
>greentexting what’s not in the reply because poor reading comprehension
>lying about how much you’re online
> doomerism
Predictable replies. You will get the life you choose. Just don’t lie to everyone and pretend it’s stressful because you made a choice.
But there's literally nothing we can do. You haven't suggested anything except get off your phone. Which isnt a problem I have, thats a millennial thing if anything.
So to be clear, what you do with your life and how you conduct yourself is totally out of your hands? You’re nothing more than a puppet on a string?
By the way, it is a problem you have. I’m certain. You’ve already spent more time on this website today than you should have and you know it.
oh you're just making completely unwarranted assumptions and being condescending
I'm a zoomer and I basically grew up with that sentiment of
>we fricked the world its your generation to fix!
So uh, go frick yourself.
>you use phone too much!!!
Nope
>do other thing
This world isn't one worthy of action.
So that's why your generation is so dead set on metaphysical determinism. You just bring it on yourselves like a self-fulfilling prophecy
I'm set on determinism but have taken the Kirkegaard pill and am pretty chill with it
She warmed up to rather quickly but always sends me TikToks now and I don't use TikTok

I'm happy to hear it. Please try to keep it as far as you can at all possible times.
Typically it's you homosexuals that try to initiate "friendship".
They just lack sincerity and rarely feel anything deeply enough. They're childlike in a way that's not charming either. One of them threatened me because I accidentally shared spoilers to a game he was playing (Hades which was garbage). Every single one of them is mentally ill like this. Another one went apeshit because I just gave an innocuous joke critiquing Parmenides. There was another who wouldn't stop berating me to become polyamorous,even though he defended hypocritically defended his other friend who was cheated on, and I eventually got fed up and cursed him.
All of these blue eyed and blonde haired Germanic scum are fricking demons. I hate them.
These "people" can't go extinct soon enough. I've had at least 8-10 fall outs like this with them and could give long stories about it. They're degenerate, hypocritical, insincere scumbags. They should have stayed on the steppes. Jackass pseuds.
I'm not black, and honestly none of my arguments ever boiled down to identity politics oddly enough.
>he defended hypocritically defended
he hypocritically defended*
Your lack of self-awareness is impressive, even for a devolved brownoid.
This is going to blow your mind but there are white people outside of nw europe
Jamal-kun...
>who is always antagonizing people for no reason
Once again, self-awareness. You useless hypocrite.
Do you have a good relationship with your father and mother? I'm just curious...
Yeah, I surprisingly don't have these issues with Meds. They tend to be more family oriented. Interestingly, every single person of NW Euro descent I've ever befriended had father or mother issues, believe it or not... That could be the underlying cause. The way they internalize such issues affects every facet of their being.
You are most likely a we wuzzing cretin who is always antagonizing people for no reason. If other races are constantly bashed, then I don't see the issue with bashing yours.
>loses ten friends
Seems like you're the problem
Yeah. At a certain point a person becomes the common denominator. There are two sides to every story and I’d bet that anon wouldn’t come out looking good if the 10 told their story. 1 or 2? Not really a problem. 10? You are definitely an issue
Nah, I'm not the problem. They were all mentally ill. Two of them even became transsexuals.
>exclusively makes friends with mentally ill people
You're sounding weirder and weirder bro
You need to befriend some based and redpilled northwest europeans instead of literal trannies. Completely ridiculous to judge us based on those people.
You sound like a resentful chud who thinks too highly of himself.
I'm not your bro.
I have had friends of nearly every race, you're the one writing off entire ethnicities because you're butthurt.
>spend hours throwing a tantrum on IQfy
>but it's other people who are mentally ill
?
I just keep punishing myself.
And the nignogs should have stayed livinh in the jungle singing around the fire, smoking jungle pot and hunting wild animals.
Too bad they were intelligent enough for slavery, and now we have gangsta rappers.
They look weird.
Their skin can best be described as milk like. With nothing distinctive. They have weird red parts of their body for some reason too. They have flat foreheads and that ugly light brown hair color.
All the ones I've seen are extremely combative and childlike. Its like they never stop being college kids even into their beer gut years which is a really bizarre thing they all have.
Night is day to the seer.

I wasn’t calling on you to live like a Luddite. Go and read my reply again if that’s what you thought. You unironically did not read it carefully. What am I asking you to cut out of your life? Being online at all, or being chronically and terminally online?
Why do human beings wear clothes? No other animals does. Why does our nail and hair grow so long.
It's obvious we were synthesized by aliens in ancient times, hence why we act like an invasive species to this Earth. History is not what we're told...
I can believe it.
dont ask metaphysical questions. but if u do, its obviously cus uhhhhhh we is aliens n shit.
>Why do human beings wear clothes? No other animals does.
>he doesn't know
Your replies are what’s baffling. I called you to first and foremost break an addiction to online lifestyle, not to to turn into a hermit and your reply was “um I already eliminated the internet totally and became a hermit ok?” as if that’s actually what I told you to do.
This is why people get so frustrated with zoomers honestly. It’s not even that you are disliked. It’s that it is like we are not even speaking the same language and that is frustration. You unironically don’t listen and don’t take any care to parse what the person is actually saying. I
For the past few months I've been incredibly distraught over the suffering in the world and how little I do to help end it. Not only that, but it feels like any attempts by most people to help others are laughed off or sneered at. I like making art, but increasingly feel that I have to do something to help people, but I don't know what. It's not directionless anger like some Travis Bickle sort of thing, but more just directionless love. I just want to help and I don't know how. I think I could live a good life if I could just find out how.
Do you do volunteer work? That's a good exercise in love. Also look up the Giving What We Can Pledge, give 10% of your income to charity, prove your love is bigger than money!
I used to volunteer, I should start doing it again. I live in a big city, so I'm sure I can find something. As for charity, it feels like most of the ones related to things I care about have not so great records, but I could always be better about finding ones.
So many of the issues I have are systemic though, and as time goes by I find myself more and more considering going into politics (not saying I'd make it, but giving it a try). I don't really want that, but I feel like I could make bigger changes in that sort of position.
Can’t or won’t? Answer with the former and you’re lying to yourself. And you know it.
Since I have to spell it out for you, it was a cal not to achieve something with your life but to live with a certain conduct and will. That’s it. These are basic human facilities all people are capable of at all times, even slaves. It’s a cope to pretend you’re just totally helpless. You choose that.
>I went 2 years with no internet at all only recently coming back because everything is online. Those were the most miserable 2 years of my life. Incredibly lonely.
Stop replying to me if you won’t be honest and consider what’s really being said. If you won’t even listen to reason, really listen and not strawman, then you really are hopeless and I’m not going to waste my time any more.

Your replies prove you are the zoomer I think you are. They’ve only affirmed learned helplessness. You seem to believe the way out of internet addiction is totally eliminating it. It’s not. You seem to believe you literally can’t do anything. You can. It’s just all bullshit, dude. Everything in life is a consequence of will. There’s what really is the case, and then there’s what you do with that. That you can do is a given. Every human life is capable of will, of actions, and of conducting itself in a certain manner. Although certain times will contain certain possibilities, a man is never unable to decide his own action and his own conduct. This is an indisputable iron law of life, and that was the basic point of my original reply. You all responded with this “nuh uh we literally have no will of our own” bs and it’s a cope. Plain and simple. The internet stuff is only secondary to all that.
Thats literally not what I said though. What are you talking about. I'm not debating will. I'm not debating any of that. I'm just speaking for myself. There's nothing I want to do. I don't understand why you've repeatedly ignored that now. I can't find anything to care about. I never said any of the things you quoted in your post.
There's just no action I want to take.
I feel like you're talking past me. You just want to have this argument no matter how ill fitting it is to have it with me specifically.
Anhedonia is typically due to poor nutrition from my experience. You are probably missing fat soluble vitamin A, enough DHA, and important trace minerals.
No this isn't my issue.
Stop acting like you know everything. If you just acted like a Sim character for 1 month and did everything I say, your life would considerably improve. Just drop all agency and let me dictate what's best for you.
Anon I know its not my issue because I already am healthy and get all these vitamins.
No, you don't. It's far more complex than you think. List what you ate today, and I guarantee I will find issues in it.
>. List what you ate today, and I guarantee I will find issues in it.
fricking kek, deranged behavior
I ate a huge drum of Utz cheese puffs
Am I supposed to believe you "can't find anything to care about" but that you also track your nutrient intake?
>If you just acted like a Sim character for 1 month and did everything I say, your life would considerably improve. Just drop all agency and let me dictate what's best for you.
NTA, but can you do this for me pls?
Give list of what you ate today.
Have fun with the IBS.

You are pompous Zoomer garbage. You most likely have intestinal parasites and nutritional deficiencies. In fact, I bet you were NOT breast fed when a baby, hence why you're so moronic.

Might be forgetting some stuff
Were the oysters farm raised or wild caught?
Was the butter from pastured cows or from those stuck up in barns and pumped with hormones?
Was butter pasteurized?
Was the pork organic?
Were the fruit and veggies organic?
Cut out brown rice. Change it to quinoa.
Were the chicken pastured/cage free?
Cut out baguette. All processed carbs are bad.
Was the milk pastured and raw?
You'd make a good vegan
Veganism is mental illness, but lacto-ovo vegetarianism can work.
Was it pastured/organism or from intensive factory farm? Eating organ meat from grain fed or factory farmed animals is not wise.
Yeah but you have the spirit of a vegan
How so?
Eating factory farmed animals is not good for one's health due to numerous reasons. Most sincere nutritionists say that.
this is the kind of anon that unironically thinks they are ''sigma male'' and shit; speaking of which I would love to see some anon edit this shizo eating habits that have gone too far in form of batemans morning routine; make it as unhinged as possible like for example
>''I start my day with a glass of unpasteurized milk; unpasteurized because the process of pasteurization also makes the lactose undergo polymerase process that turns it into cardiogenic compounds''
>''next I get some orgniac quinoa that I bought from local immigrant shop, Im quite certain it is organic because the shop owner doesn't appear to be able to afford pesticides which is abondandly clear by free protein in shape of crickets that are also organic''
>''Lastly I finish my breakfast with some cod liver, icelandic specifically. The thing about fish in the ocean is that it is full of polutants like mercury and fish near north pole do not have any mercury because mercury is too heavy for northern oceanic currents, making the icelandic cod liver most suitable for me''
Also, muscle meat by itself is not sufficient. You need to eat the offal.
I ate some veal kidney the other day. Kind of bizarre texture but it was alright.
This is autism and men who don’t get pussy
There is such a thing as a sublime transcendental type of autism that people like Emily Dickinson embodied. Such autism can be more enriching than the mundane state of mind disenchanted normies adopt.
How am I autistic merely for listing what I ate today?
Take 4 tablespoons of apple cider with Mother every day.
You joking?
No I don't get it. It's not even a weird list of food, I had a normal breakfast, lunch, and dinner with like some snacks
To be perfectly honest, I wish I had the discipline to eat in the general the way you do, despite being a skinny-fat bastard. I notice the absence of cheese, chocolates, beef, pastries, and just about everything redolent of pizza, dairy-rich tacos, and burgers with great lashings of finely sliced bell peppers and mozzarella. On the other hand, I'm a fan of seafood in general, and wouldn't miss any of that shit if I could eat like the typical rich Jap.
I eat nonsense too, I just happened not to today. Like I eat cookies, crackers, popcorn, energy drinks, etc. The only thing I am truly autistic about is getting a lot of protein.
I don't think obsessing over diet is necessary, there is a sort of diminishing returns scenario beyond learning the basics of macros and micros.
Amazing as it sounds, the liver converts any influx of sugar beyond what's usual in the wild into fat. I used to think that the two chemical regimes--fats and sugars--were inviolably separate, and that the liver wasn't so powerful at converting between them. It's an underrated organ.

Nothing wrong with some feminine male-pattern baldness, shitlord.

It was a typo. I meant to say BREAST MILK IS GOOD. Not being breast fed as a child is bad. It was a typo. Even gods can make typos.
I'd rather drop dead than spend the rest of my life micromanaging my diet so i can be a good robot
You lack meticulousness and a contemplative attitude of true intellectuals like me.
working hard is dumb when there's no price to be won
why bother i don't want to try
just let me lay down give up and die
I feel the same way even though I'm a skinny bastard who eats pretty much anything as often as I like. I hate even the sight of paperwork that pertains to ledgers.
Mood is directly influenced by diet and nutrition. For example, pic related is an incredible power food. Eating both the cod liver and its oil is very good. Whenever I eat it, my mood significantly elevated, and this is not do to placebo effect. The fishy taste bothers me though since I was not habituated to it when younger.
Why do they use wax for sculptures when plaster and plastic are both more durable and resistant to heat/smudging.

Because all the neighbors are keeping their pets inside now because half of the animals in the neighborhoods' penises are missing. He severs them, puts them in the fridge, in various containers, and then I hear him coming downstairs at night with his wienersicles going... slurp, slurp, slurp!
It's honestly staggering how moronic people on IQfy are. You would think a place inhabited by people who dedicated their education to STEM would be intelligent, but half of the threads are filled with /b/ tier intellectuals. Genuine fricking morons who know nothing about the topic they're posting about. I don't know if it's just people from different disciplines within STEM talking outside of their specific expertise, but good fricking god there are some dog ass takes in the majority of threads. I seriously see more knowledgeable posters in off-topic IQfy threads than on IQfy.
Feeling a certain kind of melancholy. I've been overcoming my failures and making a successful life. I've been doing the things I dreamed of and accomplishing my goals. But the pain of the failures and rejection and loneliness of years earlier never seems to abate. There's never that moment when I capture that feeling I yearned for when I was younger. I still daydream and send my mind back to several years earlier and relive and recount each and every mistake I made and re-engage with every feeling of lost opportunity. It's like the difference between going to Disneyland as a kid and going as an adult. The magic is gone.
Have you considered Beeing yourself?
Or peeing yourself
Peeing yourself is one of the most transcendental experiences you can have. Only when it’s on purpose those. Ideally in public too. Breaking past consciousness. Not giving a frick what others think. There is power and symbolism in it
Gotta day, I did deliberately pee myself once and it was actually a very interesting experience
why dawg
I was going through a phase where I was experimenting with a variety of auto erotic exercises
I just made a financial mistake and feels like my whole week is ruined(again)
My dad can't pee any more and needs an operation to get his prostate reamed out.
You don't need to be told that getting old sucks, but you might need to be told that when you get older, as soon as you have any difficulty peeing whatsoever, go to the doctor, no matter how embarrassed you are to get a finger up the ass. It beats badly damaging your kidneys like my dad did.
Alternatively, don't get old.
Well I wasted my whole day. Got home from work at noon and just scrolled for near about 7 hours straight.
I know this is going to sound shallow, but I can't complain about it anywhere else. I'm damn close to giving up on writing. I've been posting stuff online for years and while the kind of stuff I've been writing is pretty niche, I feel like it's above average compared to what's available around it. It's barely worth the effort I end up putting into it. I told myself for a while that I didn't need any- and for multiple years I didn't- but now I've gotten pretty damn tired of getting ~100 hits/chapter and literally no engagement on multiple stories. Apparently I did need the attention and I'm disappointed with myself for that. I'm frustrated that I haven't improved in a long time and don't have the capacity to care about trying to improve anymore. It just feels like a waste of time, yet I loved doing it so much for so long that giving it up entirely feels wrong. At the same time, I don't enjoy it much anymore
What's the difference between hits and engagement? The latter means comments or feedback, right?
Either way, unless you're trying to make a career out of it, don't worry too much. Just write for yourself if you want to. If not, that's fine too.
There's some deep irony to the fact that I'm going into education as a career. I have always hated school. Nothing made me happier than to leave school. My life did not begin to improve until I left school. My memories and experiences in school bring me nothing more than regret and bitterness. I hate the education system.
And for some reason it seems like the best career choice for me. I'm almost drawn to it. Is every teacher like this?
The VA should be worse.
I wish I wasn't a fat fricking moron.

I am obsessed with a shitpost I made 6 years ago for sundry reasons. It's very pathetic but there are specific aspects about it which make it unforgettable in my mind. I don't want to reveal much but I put like an hour worth of effort into it and it got 300 replies twice and was reposted a couple dozen more times by others not me. It's very pathetic that I think about this but it gets me to think about other things like how even the dumbest things are up for posterity to view (as long as the archives are up or any screencaps remain). Also it was the only time I ever presented anything in front of a large (Internet) audience and received praise but also criticism. I think about how I did not make that post with archives in mind, and really it was only made to exist in a moment, or as copypasta, briefly, not for eternity. Really though I just have major OCD and this is my latest obsession.
post it
Most I ever got was like 12 (Yous), you certainly outdid me. Any thread I made always died after not even 50 posts.
I started a thread once that ended in bickering between two different people (neither of which was me)
there's never anything to write in my journal besides what book I'm reading and what video game I'm playing
I watched him from behind the fallen trash. His name was "Buddy," at least, that's all I knew him as. Sometimes they called him "Bud," or "Tendy," or "Munchkin"— but to list all of the names they give him would bore even me. I never hated Buddy, and he never hated me either; many times, I would sit from my spot behind the trash just to observe him. Sometimes he would sleep, sometimes he would play, I always loved to watch him from afar. We rarely interacted— I saw to that. I remember the first time that he saw me the hairs on his back stood on end. My heart raced, of course, as the heart of any one such as myself would. I have never really been "acknowledged"— I suppose Buddy was the first one to truly perceive my existence or, really, to make me the sole object of their attention. It flattered and terrified me, and I realized that I would have to hide, regretfully, in my hole behind the trash.
Buddy's nimble footsteps raced behind me as I dug through the garbage. I could feel his small paw clutch at my tail, though it was too late. I had gotten into my hole. I knew he had in mind to kill me, to eat me, to rend my flesh between his teeth— that was alright. I knew he had no hatred in his heart. All that mattered to me was that there was someone that wanted me; For what, I don't care. Buddy became my only friend.
Just about every memory makes me cringe
Finishing a very long history of composers and I can't get over how good Mozart is. He's just so controlled and poignant incomparison to a vast majority of composers old and new. A true genius
i'm learning about the holocaust for the first time today
my homie my homie
stop before you learn too much. Reading Irving is a felony in europooristans
i'm on the part where the nazis are denouncing degenerate art
maybe i should mention irving in my friday discussion to see if i will have a fruitful discussion with my fellow scholars
i think i had it worse than the israelites in the holocaust
the only way forward is straight down
It bothers me that a book that I have read and loved is a commodity. It can come in a stack of six or eight or a thousand. It can be had over and over, like a lover.
Something beautiful should be seen once and then never seen again.
i know i am a useless, i know the reason of yours problems probably is me, i don't have any value and a dog's life is most precious than a someone from the wrong gender on your family. But for now i don't want to kill my self
It's the first day of Spring, IQfy. Winter is over, Spring is here.
It's always a very hopeful day for me. Spring is my favorite season.
Amen
I hate Spring. Always have.
I love the cold weather, I love the smell of Winter nights, I love the way the dead do not decay. Spring is not so bad as Summerー the evils of the season are portentous of the stifling heat, sweat, the bugs and rot, and the people's coming out from the warmth of their homes. No more is the peace of a cold and quiet park at night, or the birds chirping by a still and nearly frozen lake. Drunken revellers party outside and their raucous music and laughter drowns any semblance of solitudeー even the dark streets at midnight become occupied when Springtime comes.
There is nothing good about Spring.
Where I live it's pretty quiet all year round, dare I say serene. In general I prefer high summer over any other condition, for the gorgeous look of gardens, farms, parks, and so-forth. I see and talk with my neighbors rather a lot in summer. As for stifling heat, sweat, bugs, and so-forth, technology has relieved me, for the most part, of all of that since about 1970. Welcome to the First World.
It's been spring for like a month and a half
Washington DC Chad here (yes I work for an intelligence agency. No, they don't monitor IQfy or care about anyone here): we had 2 days of gorgeous 72 degree weather and now back to the low 50's for two weeks. Today was sunny, at least.
in new england, it's spring in name alone, it will be like 45F (7C) this week, dipping to freezing at night
7C is spring
but i'm COLD
The quintessential IQfy question.
How the frick do I not lose concentration while reading because after 5 minutes my brain just fades into obscurity or after finding one word that I do not know, it just breaks my flow
Guys, be honest with me. Is Nick Land a Midwit trap?
I'm on the fence about it, but accelerationism strikes me as a snare for morons around my IQ bracket (110-120).
Specifically morons more interested in the humanities than the hard sciences who are Naïve enough to believe Techno-god is going to exist in the near future.
Yes. Start with the Greeks. Take it slow and easy.
I have a job talk tomorrow and I have no idea what I'm doing.
I made my first friend at eighteen; I met him in a shelter off Petersburg. Before then, I lived in an unkind home, sheltered, uneducated, and entirely unknown to the world. I had never even attended school.
He taught me various things— how to talk, for instance, and introduced me to a girl. I developed a timid respect for him despite the fact that he was only five years older than I, and a fellow resident at the "home." My feelings gradually turned to platonic affection, and I, despite my incredibly reserved nature, began to feel as though I could be comfortable around another human being.
It was Sunday, and the overcast sky was visible from the window above my bed— we were to head for Church service in Petersburg within an hour. I cannot say what provoked it, but I found him on top of me. I did not resist. He had my calves gripped in his large hands and lifted into the air, while his groin thrust between my legs. In those moments, I really felt nothing but a kind of "submissive passivity." It felt more as if I were witnessing these events through an utterly disinteresting commercial, besides a strange "shadow" of what I should be feeling. Humiliation of course, but at the same time, guilt. I could feel something shameful as well, a feeling that I would more describe as pain than pleasure, nevertheless welling up inside of me. To be clear, I didn't want to feel it— it reminded me of the times that I would lie on my bed while my father "trained" the rebellion out of me. I suppose that's why I failed to resist.
After some time, and my humiliation completed, he left. I entered the shared bathroom quite shakily, panting, and tried to cause the shameful feeling to leave me. It did not, even after sitting on the toilet for nearly thirty minutes. I would have sat there all day— perhaps starved— if our handler had not called for me. I carried the "shame" inside of me during Church service— and felt as though I were a demon defiling consecrated ground with my unholy presence. I never made another friend after that, and I attempted suicide a week later.
Sometimes I feel like aspects of my personality are damning me to be confused by the awe of existence.
I know deeply that I believe in something. What is that something? I'm not quite sure. I've tried my damnedest to explore and find my home. I've been to all sorts of religious services and spoken to believers and nonbelievers of all sorts. I've visited Quaker meetings, Chabad and Masorti synagogues, Zen and Shingon Buddhist services, Mainline Protestant churches, Evangelical churches, Orthodox Christian services, and I'm visiting a Melkite Catholic liturgy on Saturday night. I want to visit a mosque when I get the chance. I have provided the local Hindu center with sacred plants in the past. There's one Sikh gurudwara in my state. I've read ancient pagan books, both the actual books like Homer and Hesiod to the academic books by Hellenists.
If anyone has advice or thoughts, I'm fricking begging for them. I just need something.
I went to college for religious studies. I've studied a wide variety of religions, from Daoism to New Religious Movements. I wrote my capstone project on how religious outlooks can impact how we treat the environment positively and negatively. I read religious treatises and theological essays in my spare time. I read scriptures of different traditions almost daily.
If I were to boil my most basic beliefs down, then I guess I'd say that I believe the world is good. Nature is good. I have trouble believing in transcendence over immanence.
You need to read Whitehead unironically.

Makes you a guy who will live in the woods and wait for someone to kill him come the revolution.
I agree with your stated views. I think it just means you're not a conformist or uselessly contrarian on those issues. I find most people that have ridiculous beliefs cannot really articulate their beliefs anyway. (I also want to live in the woods, kek)
Only difference for me is that I'm conflicted on the issue of universal healthcare. I am extremely sickly and certainly a genetic dudー I just don't think it's right that society should be forced to pay to keep its worst people alive.
Cheers anyway, you're doomed to hide your political beliefs from everyone except other schizos.
>I just don't think it's right that society should be forced to pay to keep its worst people alive.
I had the same considerate thought but then it occurred to me that my EU government pays welfare and gives a free house to street-shitting Black person invaders who can't speak a word of my language so they can shit 4 future rapists each and turn my whole country into a subhuman shithole. I'll take my healthcare.
I'm thinking about the concept of mockery a lot and how it drives us all towards progress
Any criticisms of powerful and influential people which doesn't include an element of hilarity fall flat on the surface which results in none to zero engagement and further empowering the useless to stay on the top
If you set up your mark too far and miss then people will generally laugh at you, that's the way the world works. But it's upto you to either take inspiration from it to do better or let it bring you down, either ways - you at least brought a smile to someone's face as the joker would say
tiktok is a net positive for society and Americans with their short attention spans are too short sighted to not recognise its importance to put a worldwide blanket ban on it
I feel like people who say that literature will disappear are simultaneously too pessimistic and optimistic. Too pessimistic because there will always be a demand, no matter by how slim of a group, for literature, and too optimistic as well, because while literature will survive, the quality dive we have been experiencing for almost a century now is one that is nowhere near approaching its rock bottom - there probably is no real bottom - and will surely make the more discerning of the literati wish that literature could have just stopped existing altogether rather than shambling around like a zombie smelling of rotten flesh.
Agree

Dropping out of high school is my biggest regret in life, it's only been downhill since then.
You should move to China and live out the rest of your days in one of the ghost cities. Heck, if you don't think that's a good idea i might as well go and do it myself
There's literally infinite space out there and you have total freedom to do anything you want without little government intervention, what are they gonna do? Check all the rooms to see where the fire alarm is coming from?
Unfortunately, that is not possible for me, moving to another country without marrying is literally impossible for me.
Marry your cousin
Marry your cousin to move to another country or don't marry your cousin and stay where you are, you will regret both
I don't have a Chinese cousin, I'm a white guy from Australia.

I would take any goddamn job to move out of here but everywhere in Europe they seem to only take in a fellow EU citizen if you have a hyper-specific degree and 12 years of experience in the sector. Oh and you can't be older than 25, and you have to be fluent in the local language.
But if you came without papers on a boat and your only skills are fluency in Baboon and gang raping white girls out of schools you get free money! I love the EU!
If you are brown, please stay away from Europe.
amazing reading comprehension senpai
None of that implies you're not from Asia, Africa or the Americas. Just that you're not some leech on a boat.
I had no idea that "fellow EU citizen" meant the whole fricking world
I can bet the change I've saved up for cigarettes that brown hands wrote this reply
Yeah that’s a tough one in today’s society. But it can be overcome. If it’s any consolation, people put a whole lot more stock in your college performance than your high school performance at a certain level. IF you end up wanting sort of white collar or academic career, it’s easier to overcome being a high school drop out than it is a college drop out, believe it or not. You just go get your GED and then go to college and crush it from there on out. Whereas if you drop out of college, nobody cares if you were valedictorian in high school. If you get bad grades, nobody cares if you were valedictorian in high school. Basically high school is just a requirement for some jobs. Nobody actually cares about it. But college? They care about college. So if you want to level up your life big time, go get your GED and take that momentum into college, do community college, public 4-year, and even grad school if you want. You can do it if you want it.
I can do the Australian version of community college which is called TAFE and then I can use my certificate(s) from that to apply to uni, it's basically the same as a high school certificate in their eyes. The great part about uni here in South Australia (I don't know if it's the same in every other state or territory) is that no matter how much your uni costs, you don't have to start paying any of it back unless you're making over your repayment threshold (you can look into more if you're interested, I understand what I said was very vague, I just don't wanna get anything wrong).
How old are you?
21.
Yeah so you’re not an age where you ought to be thinking about if this is the most optimal path, but you’ve got to get moving. At the very least, go get the minimum amount of education required to join your country’s armed forces. Do that not because you’re going to join the armed forces necessarily but because that’s a sort of gold standard signal about what is the minimum socially accepted level of education. Go do that at least. Really, you should do a lot more than that if you post on this board. For better or worse, this civilization highly values formal education. So if you’re smart you should get it, if not graduate or professional education then undergraduate education. And look, dude. You’re 21. Before you know it, you’ll be 30. Life is too short to be sort of aimless. I’m not going to tell you to just do what you want, but you’re at an age where you really should be thinking about what is worth doing with your life, what kind of career and possibly legacy you want to have because I’ll tell you, once you hit 30 it just clicks like how short life is. You get 2, maybe 3 decades to do something and then you hit your twilight years. And 2 to 3 decades is not as much time as it sounds like now. So ideally, you want to identity some kind of profession or endeavor that’s worth dedicating your life to now, and try to set yourself up for that in your 20s so that you’re in full swing in your 30s. Make 28-29 your mental mile marker. Ideally, you want to know what you want and be doing that, even if unsuccessfully, by that age. That’s what would be ideal. So go knock out the education, then do whatever the next step is, either figuring it out or trying this or that thing you have an inclination for. That’s basically all you can do. And to be honest, you’re lucky to receive this advice now. Most guys will never hear this and if they realize it, realize it about 30, meaning they could easily be far more behind at 30 than you could be.
Why don't Americans just make their own TikTok and outdo the Chinese with a superior product in accordance with free market principles?

Are anons really so lonely and desperate for women that they aren't honest when a woman asks for lit recommendations? That they spaz out? Here's a little spoiler: the rrlationship isn't goingto work if you aren't honest anyway, so be honest from the start.
I think it's more just the crippling fear of messing up that makes it difficult to even speak.
It's just a girl. Do you never have conversations with girls? Why do you think every conversation with a girl has to lead to a relationship? She can sense your desperation, will think you're alonely creep and will probably never talk to you again. Anon's are so pathetic. It scares me a share a board with many of you.
You are build different chadnon, like a leader/alpha, don't associate yourself with all the betanons on here and bring yourself down
Nah you should listen to him. You don't need to be beta forever. Plus, even if she talks smack to her friends (hypothetically), and you show that you don't care, you'll live a better life.
I find the alpha/beta talk extremely corny tbh and I want to ascend a level above and become the ultimate omega and attract any women I like without having to compete for her attention with my fellow man, or women, you should sign up for my course and I'll teach you
Sorry anon, but I'm a yogurt male.
What's a yogurt male?
im not watching all of that
Its 1 min. How fried is your attention span?
just shoot me instead
Okay, stand still.
No wait not right now, I need to finish this other video first
For super lonely men, women are scary because being insulted or demeaned by one confirms all of their fears and points of self-loathing. It doesn't even have anything to do with a relationship, just the fear that your insufficiency to women will be confirmed.
>Anon on a board asks for lit recommendation
>Let's get into a relationship
This is like a really bad foreplay which they enforce actors to play out at the start of any generic European porn
I have no idea how someone in his 20s can have problems talking to women. You meet so many and you're not jaded yet. It's really shit when you're older
>when a woman asks for lit
Literally never happened
It happens at my job in the breakroom regularly. If I'm reading and a girl sits at my table she will ask what I'm reading and what I like to read.
>Are anons really so lonely and desperate for women that they aren't honest when a woman asks for lit recommendations?
No my problem was that I couldn't think of anything she'd like. I doubt that she would like to read a book on Indian history.
from what i gathered, women love read crime/mysteries, like agatha christie novels
Rabbi Shmuley
I'm 21, I just started talking with this 30-year-old Japanese chick on HelloTalk, I have no intentions of trying to date her or frick her, I'm just gonna be my best to be a homie.
Careful. I'm 33 and was talking to a Taiwanese christmas cake, she ended up tracking down where i lived based on a random city photo and arriving at my door one saturday evening. Ended up stalking me for like 2 years.
Honestly, that would be the most attention I'll ever get from a chick, it might be worth it. Tell me you at least smashed once.

I really don't get this book's point. But then again Nick Land and Accelerationism just strikes me as an absurd millenarianism.
Even then, I just don't get it.
Millennarianism*
There's little difference between Nick land or whoever else screaming about how techno-gos is going to kill us all/bring us into Utopia/whatever and Wovoka rambling about how the White man will soon be gone.
Should I do it? Delete the porn that I have? Once its gone, I won't be able to see it again because it was from a paywalled account. But a part of me wishes to get this poison out of me.

now quitting cigarettes, that's fricking horrible
(i mean your imagination, not that picture of Spongebob, just to be clear since we're on IQfy)
My brother in Christ please do
I'm honestly glad I never got into smoking cigs despite smoking it for 6 months during my bachelor years. I distinctly remember I suddenly had the urge to puke after smoking at a party. And once I flushed it out of my system I could never touch it again. I heard that the "act" of smoking is also what feeds into the addiction.
I had no issue quitting the first time but I started again many years later and holy shit they made this stuff absurdly addictive
I smoked few times, I really don't understand how people get addicted to it
In the 2000s every teen smoked and you needed it to socialize
In the 2000s maybe 5-8 people from my class were regular smokers, few others would occasionally smoke at parties, more than half were non smokers.
jerking off at all is bad, even with your imagination. It's still depraved.
I think beig horny is a natural thing if you're not having sex - beating off is a sign that you're missing something, it's not a good sign for sure but we have hands and it's human to feel horny. It's porn that makes shit pathological because it rewires your brain and links your sex drive to porn. It's a drug and deeply unnatural. You're basically getting off to watching other people frick, it's cuck shit. I think most people who aren't too far gone can feel that it's something evil, like prostitution. I use my imagination and my fantasies are as vanilla as they get while the average porn user is into weird /d/ shit these days. Black personed porn is basically scat
Brother, using your imagination is still you getting off to different people having sex. The most masculine thing you can do and be is chaste.
>using your imagination is still you getting off to different people having sex
what
do you people play a porno in your heads
To delete the porn saved up on the hard drive or not, that is the question
If you have any interest in becoming a high functioning adult man, yes. I understand it's tough though, porn is very addictive and mostof us started at a young age.
I don't know about high functioning but I wanna feel like a real human bean.
Hey if its good I kinda hoarded it.

here is one about the coming of spring by A.K. tolstoy, written in 1858:
Звoнчe жaвopoнкa пeньe,
Яpчe вeшниe цвeты,
Cepдцe пoлнo вдoхнoвeнья,
Heбo пoлнo кpacoты.
Paзopвaв тocки oкoвы,
Цeпи пoшлыe paзбив,
Haбeгaeт жизни нoвoй
Topжecтвyющий пpилив,
И звyчит cвeжo и юнo
Hoвых cил мoгyчий cтpoй,
Кaк нaтянyтыe cтpyны
Meждy нeбoм и зeмлёй.
Why would you read anything in other prostitute/b***h languages? Please stick to English or English translations of you want to prosper economically
Hell is applying for a job and getting a rejection within 4 hours
