Why are we here...
Just to suffer meanwhile you have small moments of happyness in a sea of sadness and misery?

How to accept you're not special and the only way to save yourself is to be a cog in the machine of capitalism as a wagecuck for 50 years then retire and die?

Any blackpill philosopher?

>Write in a literary shakespearean/joyce style having fun at mixing and blending in the same phrase multiple figures of speech
>Show it to anons
>Get insulted as someone that doesn't know how to write because Writing like finnegans wake automatically filters 99.9999....% of 4chan anons, even on this board
>Have to literally keep explaining how enalagues and tmesis aren't poor writing everytime

Should i make my own website to host my own weeb stories about brown spic maids gattering coffee in south america?

Will i get some fan to translate it to japanese eventually?

It's the books about living in some hardcore fantasy world like final fantasy but the story is a basic drama story about being a boring mundane life in some boring mundane fantasy version of real life job?

Like being a white mage who doesn't save the world but simply has to study to go to the white mage academy, get his degree and start working in some towns and having to pay his academy loan to study while complaining about how shit is your public goverment healthcare pay?

I have literally nothing to live for

Everyone else I know has careers or is getting married and I have nothing. I’m just clawing in the dark, surviving off a dead-end wageslave job and wasting what meager time I have left on pointless bullshit on the internet

What are some books for this feel?

What are some books where the protagonist realizes he wasted his life?

I’m 25 and I don’t know what to do with my life

I have nothing to live for

>want to read a book
>get distracted
>start shitposting on 4chan
>hours pass
>realize day's over
>give up
I need to get out of here

How unethical would it be to steal a highly specific metaphor that you thought you'd thought of yourself only to remember that you'd read it somewhere before?

Literature that examines this phenomena [spoiler:lit]and how to overcome it?

Being hungry and without work limits your freedom more than "muh authoritarianism", Captain America.

Share the wealth with your fellow high IQ /lit/ posters. I implore you.

>be me
>have drip coffee maker
>it sits around for a few weeks,
>few weeks becomes a few months
>finally decide to use it one day, extremely excited
>realizes the bottom isn't heated; only makes a giant pot that doesn't keep warm
>extreme excitement suddenly turned into immense disappointment
>never even bother using it.
>realize the price for a good one with a heated bottom is $200 at least
>mfw every time I'm reminded.

Masturbation and coitus undermine my motivation for reading. Abstinence is a prerequisite for any serious amount of reading.

Brainlet here who hasn't read any books since graduation of HS, which was over 10 years ago, also a NEET.

Anyways, what I want to ask is whether there is a huge search - recommendation engine for books.
An engine with really tight filters, that would categorize books properly with keywords at least

Actually I have a rough idea of what the book should be or more like hopefully the audiobook.
It should play in a more or less dystopian world with futuristic setting and it should be from the perspective of a loser.
Basically I want to know what everyday struggles a loser in a dystopian future would have to face.
Of course the future is quite wild or gets wild and will drag the loser out of his comfort zone to fill the book with more content.

W-will writing books and learning the classics help me get a girl like that? What do I gotta do?

What are some books that will help me make friends (even a single one) and escape my Proto Neo Neetan lifestyle? I've tried "How to Win Friends and Influence People" but I think it only made me more autistic.
