What an astronomically shit place this site has turned into.

I went to an Aristotle conference on metaphysics recently, it was the most boring philology nonsense I had ever had to sit through, literally 8 hours of academics arguing philology and what exactly Aristotle meant in sigma 4 or theta 2 and they all disagreed on everything anyway.
I haven't touched Aristotle since....

After I studied philosophy, regular conversations became droll and tiresome to the point where I can't stand being in a conversation with someone not as intellectually curious as me.
No, I don't give a h*ck about how your sports club did, I don't care about your idle trivialities like whining about an unfulfilling job or wanting a new car, if you can't break free from these shackles of mundanity then you will always be like a worm writhing in the dust.

*yawn*

Neither actually matter.
The system only values obedience, work in your cubicle, watch Netflix series and talk about the newest marvel movies.
You working out and reading only really matter to such an extend that it lets you be a good citizen, you're never doing things for yourself.

Yeah but that is no longer a practical reality and we don't need to think of our lives in those terms, man has elevated himself from the bloodstained soil of his ancestors and we can now pursue more meaningful and productive lives and not live in perpetual terror.

Do you realise how stupid that is? What's gained? You are just perpetuating your suffering by fueling your desires.
If I want a partner I want someone who understands me on a deeply personal level, not a commodity with a gimmick subject attribute to satisfy my lustful desires.
