I thought it was primarily genetic but it turns out it's not that heritable and believed to be caused by environmental factors. Today I am the brainlet.

How do you find journals to submit to?

>tfw you at age 20 just realized that "disambiguation" is "dis"-"ambiguation" as in "ambiguity"
I legitimately thought it was something like "disambogtion" until ten minutes ago. I've never encountered it other than on wikipedia pages and always skimmed over it.

I'm a terrible slacker and I hate it. I coast through my schoolwork with minimal effort. I have a very cushy job (unironically believe there are people here that would kill me over how flippant I am towards it) that I just don't do most of the time. I don't have anything other than vague ambitions. I don't use my immense free time productively, though I'm trying to change that. Sometimes I think about trying to be less of a deadbeat, but then I remember that I don't *really* think there's anything wrong with me. The only thing I hate is how alienated and alone I am. I desire normality, not the values that normality promotes.

I'd like to blame my depression for being like this, but I don't believe there's a meaningful difference between "mentally ill you" and "you". This is who I am, if I was different I wouldn't be me.

pic related, it's me drinking my sixth cup of tea today and posting on /lit/ instead of doing something productive

help me

Product of the american public school system here, is there a name for the style of essay writing that's more similar to a dialog? Meaning that you address the reader, talk in first person, etc. I like it and think it works really well in certain contexts.

>tfw only thing you were taught about essay writing was "thesis statement -> three paragraphs -> conclusion"
