So this guy is absolutely hilarious but I think a key problem is his insomnia kept him from lifting weights. He had incredible /fitlit/ potential as a sugar momma NEET and a literal Nazi, and praised the words of the Stoics, Schopenhauer, and the Tao. He could have been something far greater than a pessimistic black comedy writer. He's missing that joie de vivre that should logically result from his own philosophy. Just imagine him with 8 hours of sleep and 30lbs of muscle. He'd be a king

Right: self-asphyxiation - this prevents the man from breathing, yes. It'll ensure we get a lovely, tender nothingness.

I'm not a fan of the Stoned Ape hypotesis, but it serves as a good metaphor for the human development of the mind and the self.

As you say OP, we were hunter gatherers for many times the human modern history. Language, meaning, civilization and the execution of human reason over matter to the present scale, it is, in terms of the planet, novelty. A strange strain of collective and individual behavior.

Over the signs we have created a game, economy. Over this game we funded the roots of technology, science and meanings and we are trying to transform the map into territory. We want to become gods.

I have to be honest with all of you. I'm into magick, science and philosophy because I want to beat death. The best shot today is going full Neuralink. I want to beat death, but somebody told me is the worst mistake of the XXI century. Even inside the void, I listen to a voice. An old memory. An old friend. An old enemy.
