I also enjoy poetry in those difficult times. Specifically Emily Dickinson for some reason.

You like dykes?

>>18565977

>>18565846
Shut up cunt.

>>18565846
Swap Epicurus for Spinoza and you would become 100x more based.

"Als de maag vol is, wordt het hart vrolijk."

— What Butterfly is saying here, gentlemen, is that she is not entirely averse to the idea of being wined and dined. I knew we'd win her over eventually. Who wants to step up to the plate?

>>18566026
That’s like believing in The Force from Star Wars. Kid’s stuff.

>>18566101
She's getting on in years, but so am I. My standards are pretty low, too. Some women in their forties managed to stay in shape and at least attemptt to have some grace. Not this slob, obviously. Still, I'll try a date or two. See where it goes. I can get along with almost any dame.

>>18565846
Cope.

>>18566010

>>18566120
that sounds based seems like ur just jelous you aren't strong with the force padawan

>>18565983

>>18566140
This is good. I like this very much.

>>18565636
It never came back

>>18566135
Quite well as an Epicurean

>>18566191
Fantasy is fun, but poor cope when the book/film ends

>>18566284
you can just keep it on repeat or LARP as the chosen one kek
what makes epicurius good for coping in your opinion?

>>18566284
You dont have to cope to live a fulfilling life

>>18566284
>Fantasy is fun, but poor cope when the book/film ends
That's what George RRRRRR Martin is for. His series will never end, so his readers will never have to face reality.
(Robert Jordan did the same thing, by making his series so long no-one has ever finished it.)

For some reason I always return to Kierkegaard when sad.

>>18567063
>>18567170
no really. simping for a 40 year old misandrist is worse than shitting dick nipples.

I can't read when I'm big sad, can't do much other than walk.

>>18565636
love the tomboyish look

>>18565846
Is happiness/pleasure really a fit goal for life? Are the people you admire the most necessarily the ones who experience the most happiness?

there is nothing you can do. just have to take it. one day It will stop toying with me and finish the job. I have already stopped fighting back when I see it stalking in the bushes.
We both know I am defenseless.

It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more than love—
I and my Annabel Lee—
With a love that the winged seraphs of Heaven
Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsmen came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven,
Went envying her and me—
Yes!—that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.

But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we—
Of many far wiser than we—
And neither the angels in Heaven above
Nor the demons down under the sea
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;

For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling—my darling—my life and my bride,
In her sepulchre there by the sea—
In her tomb by the sounding sea.

Not the real Butterfly you fucking idiots. Doesnt even post like it.

>>18568090
yes, it is. You can see the serial number, stupid.

>>18565636
>tfw you couldn't save her
>shes now a lonely 50 year old lesbian cat lady who acts like an edgy teenager on 4chan
such a waste of a life

>>18568114
Thats not the correct serial you fucking dope, you are all falling for a ruse its really sad. The previous buttercunt had the ability to make one seethe with nearly any post. This new one doesnt have that effect and is a poor imitation.

Do you guys not have just have all name and trip codes filtered back into anonymous?
Why are you guys so obsessed with this?

>>18568168
I do. It's great.

Every now and again I expand a new namefag's post to see if they actually said something insightful or funny. They never do.

>>18568168
I'm not obsessed I've just been around here long enough to notice something so obvious

>>18568163
it is the correct serial, check the archive dumbfuck

les fleurs du mal. I'm not even halfway through. that's because I only read it when I'm really sad and when that's the case I only read like 5 pages. I like it a lot though.

>>18565638
Fpbp. Why do people insist on trivializing profound experiences? It's pretty pathetic. Like when philosophy majors call major works "dope" or "fire".

The back of the bottle of whichever alcohol I might have available at said time

>>18568512
well, it's more of a way to diversify language. writing depression sad while big sad--especially capitalized--is at least mildly funny.

>>18565636
I read Aquinas and am sad no more

>>18567465
Being free of anxiety and stress allows us experience life in a variety of ways, even to enjoy a Shakespearean tragedy. Epicureanism isn’t about chasing after maximum pleasure, but enjoying what there is, even if it’s meager. It advises steering clear of politics, or the complications of family life, but you’re certainly free to delve into those things or any number of stressful activity. Coupled with the scientific approach, modern Epicureanism understands body chemistry and why we suffer depression and can help anyone willing. It is the best way of life.
I admire Jim Henson and David Graeber. Happy people, creative people, yes. Though one lived a little extravagantly, the other quote frugally.

>>18566359
To deal with the problem of nihilism one must cope. Epicureanism is the best path

>>18567403
She’s not wearing makeup, but I don’t see much else to indicate this. Hmm.

>>18567202
I’m not a misandrist

….new one on me.

>>18569675
Explain why, please.

>>18568037
Yes they did.

Tits or GTFO.

You will never be a real woman. You have no womb, you have no ovaries, you have no eggs. You are a homosexual man twisted by drugs and surgery into a crude mockery of nature’s perfection.

All the “validation” you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back people mock you. Your parents are disgusted and ashamed of you, your “friends” laugh at your ghoulish appearance behind closed doors.

Men are utterly repulsed by you. Thousands of years of evolution have allowed men to sniff out frauds with incredible efficiency. Even trannies who “pass” look uncanny and unnatural to a man. Your bone structure is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a drunk guy home with you, he’ll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of your diseased, infected axe wound.

You will never be happy. You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the depression creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.

Eventually it’ll be too much to bear - you’ll buy a rope, tie a noose, put it around your neck, and plunge into the cold abyss. Your parents will find you, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with the unbearable shame and disappointment. They’ll bury you with a headstone marked with your birth name, and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know a man is buried there. Your body will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably male.

This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.

>>18569912
>She’s not wearing makeup, but I don’t see much else to indicate this. Hmm.
I was talking about her facial features, she has a bit of a boyish edge to her.

Maybe a bit of short stories and write some. I don't really have collections of poetry yet, so I, although seldomly, write my own

Is that butterfly

>>18570120
Is that you in OP

>>18570177
>>18570186
No.

>>18570192
Oh thats a shame

>>18568599
It doesn't diversify shit. It's a meme, the homogenization of thought.

>>18567544
Checked.
Based & EAPpilled.

>>18565636
I have difficulty focusing and find reading to be fairly trite when I'm sad.
I mostly just wallow in my own feelings.
Hasn't happened in a while.

I can sense it submerged below me
I catch glimpses of deep shadow rising

>>18565639
>she

>>18571099
>holy shits his own post forgetting to take off the name.
And here you are again doing a “>she”
Loser.

>>18571331
Yes but is he wrong?

Books to read when the Big AAAHH (mania) comes back?

>>18572558
You won't be reading books. You'll be thinking about how you're going to read a thousand books in 90 days and become a god.

Ask me how I know.

>>18567381
>>18565636
>big sad
Please, just... go back

>>18570000
Fuck buttertroon, they’re some good quads

>>18571331
Blah blah blah, can I see your dick?

I only come to /lit/ when I'm depressed out of my mind
In this brief moment of lucidity I preemptively apologize for all of the mentally unstable things I will post in the future

>>18572881
I was thinking about posting the same, but never apologize.

What do I read after she left me on read for almost a week?

>>18572994

>>18572994
another message from another girl

>>18573004
I'll look for this.
>>18573005
Thanks senpai, i'll try.

>>18573022
what you really should be doing is putting more stocks into yourself
if you put too much of yourself into a woman, you'll be a hollow man when she decides to leave you

>>18572797
This is true.

>>18573005
This is based.

>>18571002
This really is how memes function. They make thought itself come in little pre-packaged boxes. It's an insidious thing

>>18568487
Its not

>>18565636
I go to the gym and later read war memoirs. That sorts it out, sadness gone. Along with realising that not every day is as happy as it appeared to be when you were younger. There is a lot of struggle, hard work and sadness involved but that is it. Being happy constantly is a meme.

>>18565824
How about a veronica?

>>18565636
Bukowski because of his world-weary but witty/unpretentious style.

>>18574756
is too
