I enjoy being alive and I am thankful for my parents for giving me life, since I am not mentally ill.

Yes, it’s the only 19th/early 20th century ideology that legit hasn’t been tried yet.

I often fantasize about making an incredibly pretentious and self-indulgent art film about my suicide.
It would be black and white, I would film myself jumping off of a tall building, the next shot being me splayed out like Christ on the cross with a trail of blood resembling the crown of thorns.
The rest of the film would be family and friends looking depressed, drinking themselves to stupor, all dialogue would be a variation of

When critics lambast it at the Sundance festival I would tweet
>yeah but what films have YOU made?

The Siberian bear isn’t coming out of its hibernation, the Middle Kingdom dragon is ascending the skies.
From the highest mountaintops the first rays of the Black Sun are peeking through, beating back the dark night of Western man’s soul.
In the distance, if you really listen, the sound of cogs and wheels turning can be faintly heard.
History is starting up again, a new era is just around the corner. The elites have noticed the signs, hence why they implemented clown world in a vain attempt to stop change.
But the essence of life is change, and they won’t be able to stop it.
Awaken, oh son of the West!

No, reading (literary) fiction isn’t useless.
It’s a convenient medium to explore ideas in a setting of limitless possibilities.
Some of the greatest insights into the human soul were made by authors like Dostoevsky, Hamsun, Dazai, and other’s in masterpieces like Notes from Underground, Hunger and No Longer Human.
(Literary) fiction has a place in literature that should not be underestimated and cannot be replaced by the technical descriptions of real world phenomena found in non-fiction.

The ancients were true masters of engineering, even with modern tech we couldn’t make pyramids today.

Indeed, this is not the end of the world, only the end of Western hegemony.
We are on the cusp of a new, better world where the peoples of the world are free from the yoke of gweilo barbarians.
I trust the CCP’s wise leadership.

Please dude, what's next, gonna tell him to read Kerouac? Some Eckhart Tolle?

You don't need to know bliss to be bliss, and you don't need to know good to be good. The Aeons were righteous by nature and not by reflection. You perpetuate the Mixture by answering for it. You and your kind will know perdition in the end
