/lit/ - Literature

Probably practice, if you feel like it. I could do pages of bs a day. That is probably how you get started, write pages of bs, read it, work on the bad parts and start improving.

Get off this website for starters

Get plenty of sleep, eat healthy, drink only water, exercise (not anything crazy, but plenty of walks; stay relatively active), basically everything to help improve your thinking and your memory. Or simply be autistic

How bad is dehydration on the brain? I've been dehydrated probably since I was 6 years old. I don't drink anything but Dr.Pepper and I almost dark dark yellow piss? Now that you said it you have me worried

>>18785091
Keep a schedule. Sit down every day, two set hours, and just write. If you make a point of writing for 2-4 hours a day its not hard to produce a couple pages of work. I probably crank out 4k words a day just shitposting on 4chan,.

>>18785111
>How bad is dehydration on the brain?
Incredibly bad, but also being dehydrated in general is bad for your health (makes you tired, more prone to headaches and lightheadedness)

>I don't drink anything but Dr.Pepper and I almost dark dark yellow piss?
Soda (and processed sugar in general) is a killer man; cutting out the soda and switching to water and tea/coffee only is one of the best things you can do health-wise. Also having dark yellow is pee is probably not a good sign, pic rel

>>18785111
Please don't do that. Drink literally almost anything else, but really mostly water.

>>18785111
Blood circulation and things like sleep are incredibly important to the development of the brain desu. No idea about diet tho..

>>18785139
I can't drink water. It makes me gag

>>18785111
Water for hydration is a meme, water dehydrates your cells. Drink as little water as possible, water should come naturally in your food, like fruit, tomatoes etc. It can only be absorbed by your cells when it's bound to nutrients. You only need to drink much when you eat fiber and shit, what you shouldn't do.

And cut that Dr.Pepper crab, faggot.

>>18785142
My parents really fucked me up. Did nothing but eat chicken nuggets and drink soda since I was a baby. I'm probably 10 IQ points lower than what I would have been

Mitochondria is the power house of the cell. But what is osmosis?

>>18785184
You idiot. Go take a bath or swim a while and look at your fingers. Your skin got dehydrated. What do you think happens inside of your body?

>>18785189
>osmosis
osmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosisosmosis

>>18785193
You're moron and can't even argue properly. You're just spouting out words someone hammered in your head. It has nothing to do with Osmosis. Water has to be bound to micronutrients to be absorbed by the cells. That's basic biochemistry.

>>18785149
That's retarded. Obviously you shouldn't drink gallons of water a day and not eat anything, who does that? Stop giving advice.

>>18785091
I own all 45 volumes of the collected works of Lenin. Bought them all for 100 dollars from a used book store who thought they were taking up too much space. Mostly just personal or party letters along with transcribed speeches. Thinking of selling them though.

>>18785205
But staying in water for a long time washes away the sebum. Then, the water can penetrate the outer layer of your skin. This causes your skin to become waterlogged. So how does this lead to wrinkles? For a long time, people thought the water caused skin to swell up and get puffy. Now researchers believe wrinkly fingers could be an autonomic nervous system reaction. Why? Because it's easier to pick up wet objects with wrinkly fingers. Wrinkles on your fingers may give you more grip, kind of like treads on a car tire.

Our body is able to reallocate water, anon. FFS, don't be a fucking retard.

>>18785149
People have been drinking water for the entire fucking history of human kind. Animals will drink water out of streams and such. What world do you even live in?

>>18785091
Genetics is the excuse of the lazy. Just make it part of your daily routine. An hour writing every day and an hour reviewing/editing/researching every day.

>>18785189
That is not what happened to your fingers. are you a moron? Do you really believe this?

>>18785189
This has to be bait

>>18785207
>>18785218
Post body and tell me what you ate today.
You're clearly victims of the government guidelines.
>researchers believe
FFS

>>18785236
What do you rely on to tell you the truth about nutrition if not research or science of some kind? Inuition? Spritual communication with the Gods?

>>18785236
This bait to get your coomer material. You are not a retard, but unfortunately I uncovered your scheme.

>>18785219
>People have been drinking water for the entire fucking history of human kind
That's not true. I've studied many native tribes. They get all the hydration naturally from their diet and when they need to drink, they make green juices out of certain vegetables.

>>18785149
Can you post or link whatever evidence leads you to believe this? I am genuinely curious. What book/article/whatever did you read?

>>18785091
probably the biggest thing is to stop wasting precious time on this fucking worthless board

>>18785091
1) have a real reason to work on something
the truth is that nobody with a shred of self-control procrastinates on important or productive shit. Writing is not productive. You will not have an audience. You will not meet new people. You will not make a cent. You are working to make something that you'll throw at sea when you're finished. Your body knows this and it's trying to stop you, so you procrastinate. People who produced a lot of shit were probably getting paid, they had support, they had some sort of returns from writing tons of shit, and putting lots of effort into things. What is it today that suggests that effort in making quality writing is rewarded? Do people win awards for writing amazing things, or do they get awarded for their skin color and gender?
Try to do something else that doesn't end up on an internet dumpster, something that gives you some kind of reward, you'll vey likely not procrastinate. As with many things today, the individual is blamed for the environment's faults.

>>18785241
>What do you rely on to tell you the truth about nutrition if not research or science of some kind? Inuition? Spritual communication with the Gods?
You just said "researcher", no names. I rely on researchers, but on independent ones. Most are just puppets for the industry.

>Rust is a fungus
Rust... is iron oxide. You can prove this with a simple chemistry experiment. What the fuck

>>18785276
lol
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust_(fungus)

>>18785091
make a checklist of what you want to do. Order it from most important to least important.

>>18785287
He's clearly not talking about this, he's talking about rust on metal he literally says "many metals rust, that's a fungus".

>>18785300
Can you don't put two and two together? It is the same pattern for different organisms/materials. You will have mold on cheese, but not on metal. But it has the same purpose.

>>18785308
*not

>>18785308
If its a metaphor then its a rather sloppy one.

>>18785318
It's more than a metaphor, come on now

>>18785308
>But it has the same purpose.
no it doesn't... what the fuck anon rust is a chemical reaction, mold is a living being

>>18785326
Is this bait? How fucking hard is this to understand?

>>18785308
What the fuck do you mean by "purpose" in this context? Its not the same mechanism at all, nor the same cause, although I suppose both oxidation and being eaten by mold function to break things down in a sense.

>>18785326
But it looks the same. What is the difference between bread and metal anyway?

>>18785334
Yes, the purpose is to break it down. But it's a different process nature chooses for different materials.

>>18785340
>>18785336
is this bait? anon please I am tired, stop pretending you're retarded

>>18785357
The bread thing wasn't me. And no it's not bait. It will only sound retarded to you if you are retarded yourself.

Holy shit i cant imagine the level of morbid obesity you must be suffering

Gagging because of water? You're trolling

>>18785370
Maybe he's drinking tap water or some shit.
Anon >>18785146 try good sparkling Gerolsteiner (out of the glass bottle, not the plastic shit), that's one of the highest quality water.

>>18785380
I hear that burgers drink only soda
it's like in idiocracy where they mock him for drinking water because.it's only used in toilets

>>18785400
Burgers pushed their sodas and burgers on the whole world. They produce so much junk they don't know what to do with it, so they just export it and intoxicate the whole world. Truly a blessed nation.

>>18785212
I would keep it. You got it cheap and it's a good conversation starter

>>18785370
I'm actually underweight for my height and I don't know why I gag. It's probably because I've never drank a glass of water in my life and my body doesn't know what this tasteless substance is. Not even joking

>>18785091
I’d bet most of that is letters

>>18785091
it works like this:
Ask yourself one question:
Are you a professional writer?
yes: then you write. for x hours or x pages or x words. whatever.
no: then you write when you feel like it and just have fun.

Try getting super dehydrated. You will have hallucinations. That should give you a general idea of how good it is for the brain.

It can also create weak spots that are vulnerable to infection in areas such as the sinuses.

can you faggot LARPers please stick your tiny head in the toilet and flush while you breathe in, so that water fills your lungs and you die

Eliminating distractions is the single most helpful tool in my experience. Personally, I’m mulling over living out of my car for a while. I’m going to cancel my phone service so it’s just me, the books, and maybe the computer I use to type on. I can drive up to a rural part of my state that’s filled with camping grounds and almost no one living nearby for thousands of acres at least.

>>18785400
It’s crazy what you people believe about us.

>People have been drinking water for the entire fucking history of human kind
this isn't true. for the longest time it was safer to drink beer than water

>>18785111
I'm laughing so hard at this and all the replies taking it seriously

>>18787513
Yes I do.

>>18785091

It is serious. The only people who don't think it's serious are people who aren't Americans

Just to be sure I'll hydrate with Dr. Pepper™ from now on.
How many people drown in Dr. Pepper™ every year? Only a few. But water? It's lethal.

these are pathetic compared to The Black Library (currently at over 200 titles) and the Star Wars: Legends canon (155 titles)

>>18785091
It's easy if you get into the hobbit of it, but be sure to get into the right habit
I'm in the habit of writing 500 - 3000 words in my diary every day, desu.
But, honestly, I'd rather be in the habit of writing or thinking about more important things
Regardless, I'm almost at 600,000 words in just 3 years
