What you need to understand is that at your age, in college especially, women have all of the sexual capital. They are the owners and CEOs of sex, and you're some peon applying for janitor in their building. But things change gradually as you get older. By the time you hit mid-30s, the power will be yours (as long as you workout and have your own life). Sexually speaking, your peak is at least a decade away. All of those women around you are peaking right now. Stay strong, get a fuckin hobby and some friends, and try not to dwell on this problem. I guarantee you when you reach your 30s you'll still be horny and there will be some hot 20 year olds trying to jump on your dick

YES YES, being a mindless consumer is the only true way to be happy! Just live your life, dont question anything! Questioning power structures are bad, very bad, and will just make you unhappy. Here, take some prozac this will make everything better. No? YOURE CRAZY! SEND HIM TO PRISON, THE LOONEY BIN.

Isnt that better? Now we can keep consuming and being happy.

Modernity's fundamental problems can be traced back to the psycho-spiritual disorder resulting from our complete severance from Nature and the hyper-stratification of our society as a result of the industrial "revolution". "Communism", "socialism", "capitalism", "fascism", "nationalism", and so fourth are all lame duck attempts to correct or veil this malaise with ideas of "economic equality", "national solidarity", "individual prosperity", and so fourth. So long as we remain fundamentally disconnected from the intrinsic cycles of life that govern reality and delude ourselves into thinking the disconnected human mind (when no such thing exists) is capable of "inventing" the "perfect system", however, we will languish about in vitriol, emotional isolation, egotism and violence.

There is no "policising," "revolutionising" or "inventing" our way out of this mess. Either we wake up to our fundamental reality as aspects of Nature able to cognise itself, or we ignore it further and end up causing Armageddon, both for ourselves and the balanced ecology around us (although the duality between the two is ultimately false.)

What do you do when you're pessimistic about the use of your own pessimism?

>try to write anything
>it ends up being semi-autobiographical embellishment of my lame life where the main character is way wittier than everyone and everyone else talks in literary and pop culture references

i'm a living stereotype of the "YOUNG WRITER"
i would really appreciate it if someone came and killed me to end this suffering
