I’m leaving for Gensokyo in a few days, and the only belongings I can bring with me are the things that I’m holding moments before my body dies.

So what essentials do I need in order to survive out there?

Remember Outsiders are not protected under the contract. You should stock up on talisman and other exorcism weapons to fight (hopefully doesn't happen) your way into the Human Village or Hakurei Shrine. Also try teaching yourself ESP much like Sumimi.

If all else fails, find a fairy to fuck before you die.

Just bring a few plastic bags filled with bottles of alcohol, most youkai will probably accept a drink, especially a new one they've never had before, in exchange for your life.

Also you may want a plan for when you get there; my advice/plan is 1. get to the human village (if you find someone like Mokou or an incident resolver, you can try to use hand gestures but be ready to give up if you make no progress)

2. find Suzunaan/Kosuzu, make a gesture like writing, or just write in the dirt, get a writing implement and paper, now you can communicate with her as a translator.

3. your best bet is to start a new life in the village, possibly going to keine's school to learn the language yourself, or step 4

4. get escorted/have someone deliver a message to the SDM and offer to become a servant, as long as you do your work you will likely be kept alive (especially if you are entertaining to Remilia) and have your food, shelter, and bed provided for, plus they actually know English, at least enough to write invitation letters.

Vodka, condoms, and a gun, a shotgun if you can and some ammo to go with it. A can of Monster Zero to stay hydrated.

Aim to reach the human village first, shooting a few rounds should be enough to deter the weak youkai you would encounter on your way there. Then try to befriend some of the friendlier youkai and donate to the Hakurei Shrine often. When you're starting to integrate well use knowledge acquired on Gensokyo in the real world to become a big wig and get invited to the SDM parties.

Being gay in today's society is seen as acceptable and trying to put a gay person through conversion therapy is heavily frowned upon.

Meanwhile if a person wants to kill themselves, everyone tells them to stop, go see a therapist, and probably take meds. There aren't many options available for assisted suicide.

>>22326997
Then there's those people that spend years or decades just not wanting to live. None of us asked to be born, so it should make sense that we should have the option to quit living whenever we wanted.

And the act of robbing a bank has the goal of trying to obtain money but the consequence for failing would be jail time. Telling someone to stop if they were going to rob a bank would be essentially warning them of that consequence. Meanwhile, a suicidal person's goal is to try and kill themselves. Maybe it'd be more fine giving a warning to suicidal people of the potential drawbacks for a botched suicide instead of just flat out saying they can't kill themselves at all.

Then the problem is how society and people perceive suicide in general. Families decades or centuries ago would ignore and disown their children for coming out the closet. People in Saudi Arabia today are even beheaded for being gay. Back then, the act of being gay had a negative impact but in modern times our attitude towards that has changed.

Suicide is basically the same thing. It's really no different than packing up everything, leaving for a different country, and never contacting your family or friends ever again. The only thing that needs to change is the mindset of the people you leave behind. They just have to learn to accept your decision instead of forcing their wants and feelings over yours.

Homosexuality and suicide in a vacuum are neither good nor bad. It's only until people put their moral standards on it is when it changes.

Having sex with men is the equivalent of an execution in Nazi Germany. The death of someone who didn't want to die. Meanwhile a 70 year old man that's content with life and just wants out is forced to keep living against his wishes.

>> No.22327193

>>22327162
The original argument is my view that the needs of the individual are more significant than the needs of other people.

This applies to all facets of life such as a person picking their own career instead of want their parents desire. Or if a woman has an unwanted pregnancy, they should have the choice to undergo an abortion instead of society or religious institutions dictating that she can't. If a person wants to kill themselves, let them. We don't hold some moral high ground that has any right to interfere with what they want to do with their life.

In all these cases, someone is going to be upset because of that individual's own decision. But I'd much prefer that instead of taking away someone's freedom of choice.

Some ancient people in the past were extremely butthurt and angry over their child being born gay. If they felt that way today, we'd tell them to suck it up and deal with it.

Same thing applies if a person wants to kill themselves. The people who miss them have to deal with it.

No one's really stopping you (see Chester Bennington, Robin Williams) unless you're the kinda guy who needs to do it in public or announce it, in which case you deserve to get kicked back into life.

If you want to die, then die quietly. Because otherwise you're just an attention-whore.

>They just have to learn to accept your decision instead of forcing their wants and feelings over yours.
Don't know your situation and never will, but there's a problem with this logic; to most people it'll be seen as just a sudden thing. They'll always think, unless you're open with it, that you just woke up one day because of something and went "maybe I'll kill myself because something bad happened today". They'll think your dog died or something and its just a temporary thing, so of course they'd try to stop you. Since if you're planning to kill yourself just because of one bad thing then yes, that might pass and then you'd regret it if you actually did off yourself. Whatever friends you've ever had in your life, you'd probably do the same for as well. If it's a long lasting thing that's different but most suicidal people don't actually tell anyone that, as I'm sure you know.

That being said, I'm not your psychologist and I can't really do anything specifically to help you. I don't even know if you'll off yourself and never will since you're just an anonymous poster, but even though we're strangers I hope you don't kill yourself. Maybe it's just self-serving to say that, but still. As a NEET with no future even I have things I want to do in the future, even if it's just something as simple as getting a BLT or playing a game. You've gotta have something and cling to that.

It is a question of property rights. If I want to build a shed on a piece of land, and you want to build a pond, but we both agree that you own the land, then you have the final say.

A person's body, and their time, are things that belong to themselves (or, at the very least, to no other person) under most systems of ethics you can think of. Saying that your needs matter more than another person's in the matter of that person's suicide is the same as asserting ownership over that person. Such a thing is considered despicable by most.

Religious objections are based on the same idea. If there is a entity/system/etc. that has moral ownership over people and has stated desires, then it is immoral to act against those desires.

Even in highly collectivist societies like Japan, it's rather extreme to say that anyone owns a person except for themselves. The situation of "I saved your life, so you belong to me now" is the classic example.

Now, it may be considered rude or inconsiderate for someone to act in a way that inconveniences others, but morally it's similar to building a pond when the neighbors are clamouring for you to build a shed. Doing so may be inconsiderate, but it is within one's rights. For a neighbor to actively oppose you would be orders of magnitude worse.

Right, but the bottom line would be to stop them and talk them out of it either way, correct?
If you told people things they don't want you to be doing, don't be surprised if they assume you're not of sound mind. They WILL commit to stopping you under the impression you're making a mistake.
And if you are of sound mind you'd know better than to Iet anyone know you're kys. Unless you're doing a double suicide, but that's a different matter.

That's exactly my point: you're describing a situation by describing who has what rights over the things in question. In your example, there are questions to be asked (does the land belong to the family head? does it belong to the family as a whole, perhaps with conditions on necessary agreements regarding its usage?), but in real situation, it's much more straightforward. An adult's friends and relations do not have any moral right to his life.

It may be completely correct to say "Anon was very inconsiderate to kill himself. He wasn't suffering that much, and now we are all deprived of his company", but that depends on the circumstances. The circumstances would have to be highly exceptional to correctly say "Anon had no right to kill himself, because this person/group of people had the rights to his life".
