How else am I supposed to get any social interaction and avoid total solitary confinement?

>>14813776
Because I'm an autist with no social life and I come here to fend off loneliness.

4chan is unironically my only form of social interaction? How am I supposed to avoid solitary confinement if I leave this site?

How do you get social interaction besides from 4chan?

>>14640649
Because this is my only form of social interaction I have left.

high shitposting to quality content ratio, but this doesn't matter because as an elitist myself with certain areas of specialization i have confidence in the individual wisdom of this collective to provide answers to genuinely niche enquiries when required, and i am as guilty as anyone else in the shit-posting department, probably because it is comfier than actually reading books at this point. as a western canon stalwart revolting against the modern world, finding a reason to read works written post-1950 was something that had eluded me prior to /lit/, but i have been memed into a certain acceptance of post-modernism and accelerationism which i had previously disregarded due to an assumption that the pseudery of these fields was all-encompassing. in addition to literature this is a good board for exploring matters philosophical, temporal and spiritual, where group-think is thought-provoking but not necessarily persuasive, and the leftypol residue which valiantly try to resurrect their ideology here make for an entertaining punching bag for the simple reason that they can't moderate counter-arguments and are also autistic enough to keep the conversation alive. i think on balance this is one of the more depressed boards out there and i am okay with that

>Is there any advantage in using 4chan?
>Do you think we could benefit ourselves somehow by using this website where you can say whatever the fuck you want?
4chan is unironically my only form of social interaction. People in solitary confinement with no social interaction often go insane, so there's that.

The real solution is teaching kids that they don't need a GF as long as they have a simulacra of a GF in their minds and on their computers.

I was reading The Man's guide to Women last night, specifically the extremely insightful chapter on making love. It explained everything in plain enough language to where I feel confident in pleasuring a woman despite being a sperg burger.
I found myself both electrified and disgusted. Part of me wanted to bang someone right then and there. I yearned to start a relationship asap, even though I'm moving abroad in a few months and that would be a terrible idea.
But the other half of me, the half that still felt the shame of getting caught watching the strippers on Sabado Gigante, recoiled in horror at how easy it was to sexually stimulate a woman. The book basically said her whole body can be a erogenous zone if you do it right. That sounded like Hell to me.

Why can't I enjoy being a sexual organism? I didn't get over the near-depression inducing shame of masturbating until my early 20s. I view anyone that's confidant or proud of their sexuality as a deviant or used goods. I am legitimately worried about it causing problems if I somehow bumble my way into a relationship with a girl that isn't as sexually stunted as I am.

Why are books so underwhelming nowadays? 15 years ago they actually had originality and some heart put into them.
