I miss her, I miss her so terribly much, like a void that will never be full. I know it will never happen and I know I've now put her on a pedestal in my mind, but god do I miss her. Every day that has passed has made me more bitter and cynical to most every woman I meet. Professionally, socially, and in romance I despise them. None are as kind and sweet as she. None care as much as she did. None are as beautiful. The older I get the more vapid, whorish and child-bearing my peers become. Their destitute and miserable lives written in crows feet. I will die alone. I will not love again. And unless my one-night-stands bore child, I will be the last of my lineage. As a bastard myself, I accept this fate. I still long to hold her, though I know she's changed and moved on. I have tried to do the same, yet every iteration of myself from the past I come in contact with, I see the sad embarrassing husk of a man.

My post about post post modernism was not specifically about post irony or new sincerity, but new sincerity can be a response to post post modernism the same way I said "unplug" is a solution.

I think it's a daily struggle of balances and testing to see what you can impact within your immediate surroundings, but just like any addiction or habit, it's difficult to implement and maintain and your environment effects it more than anything else.

We can talk about community, contextualizing others empathetically, working out, going outside, writing, reading more, being with other friends. But in a time when externalities of sociopolitical currents force us to stay home and become alienated from out friends and struggle to pay the bills, it becomes difficult to not seek this easy digital escapism. To start watching all of the x-files is easier than me getting some addy, less stressful than calling friends, takes less effort than physical activity, less embarrassing than dating women, and cheaper than getting a 12 pack of modelo.

The ease at which a parasocial relationship can develop is astounding. It was first waifus from NEETS, but when everyone becomes a NEET every famous face becomes a waifu.

The fact I just spent 2 minutes to find the right picture to post, so that anons I don't know and will so temporally interact with may, in fact, giggle.

I hate this thread.

On "hi-fi" music:
>"high fidelity, just as obsessive and puritanical as the other, conjugal, fidelity” (Seduction, p.30)
