Far land with no way back-
As everyone in turn,I'm also destined
To reach the last instant.

And spread her blinding beams,
My golden hair and enchanting voice
Will vanish like a dream!

Perpetually will last,
And there'll be all-as if my own life-span

This more likely belongs to /sci/ than /lit/ but after going through my old school books, the one subject I never really understood was chemistry. The way chemical bonds and how they're described or how the diagrams being drawn in a particular way meant a certain chemical reaction went over my head. I was just told that it was just that way because it is. I never got the logic behind it.

It's a difficult topic to broach, no doubt, but as long as your kink doesn't define you like it does in the LGBTWTFBBQ community or hurt someone than there's hope for you.

This. The real redpill is living at least an hour from a city and raising cattle, chickens, and hogs that you slaughter and butcher yourself while supplementing game like venison, bear, sandhill crane, pheasants, ducks, quail, doves, rabbit, squirrel, beaver, and local fish. It is clarifying butter yourself, smoking bacon yourself, rendering bear grease, lard, tallow yourself, and keeping a garden and greenhouse for vegetables and tubers. It is knowing basic woodworking, welding, blacksmithing, and maintenance. Ideally it is having a home server and dumb terminals with access to pirated copies of solidworks and autocad and having your own cnc router, 3d printer, and plasma cutter as well as having a nice lathe.

I'm super into bondage. I dont care for sadomasochism but I really get on from domination and submission. Theres secondary kinks as well, like certain clothings and fabrics, breathplay, collars, particular speech, etc. I had one gf as an adolescent whom I tried all my kinks on. Even though it wasn't sadomasochistic I think it still ended up being toxic and unhealthy. maybe now six years have passed and I'm more mature I could handle it better, but it still worries me.

>What was you girls reaction?
Quiet confusion, because she didn't know what I meant by that. She wasn't "internet savvy" at the time and really didn't know what furry stuff was. It eventually came down to just sitting down with her and showing her some sites to explain my interest. Again, a little awkward, but she was receptive.
She understands now and likes to tease me about how she's my little unicorn. She likes the SFW art too, but she personally doesn't have any real draw to the furry community. Nor do I, so that's all fine. It's all worked out wonderfully and isn't at all a disruptor in our relationship, in fact it's brought us closer from time to time.

While I may be generally disinterested in the subject I know there are large communities of people that are into that stuff too. With stuff like 50 Shades of Grey I imagine there would be more relatable ground to meet someone on if you did have to explain your situation to a lady. Explain in small doses and understand that some girls simply won't be into that.

My girl actually tried doing some of her own research into furry stuff after I brought it up and stumbled into chat rooms where people were talking about pet play, thinking that I wanted to put her on a leash or some shit. She was pleased to learn I was just interested in pictures of fluffy women with tails and snouts.

Oddly, she started to consider after that point if she had any kinks that she hadn't discovered yet. She lived a reserved childhood and thought that it was a natural part of growing older and sexual development. I had to pull her back and say that she wasn't at all expected or required to have any off-beat sexual interests. Vanilla sex is perfectly fine.

I say all of this just to let you know that it's possible that conversations can be had, information can be shared, an understandings reached. It means making yourself vulnerable, but if you find a girl you feel is "the one," then it's worth it to try.

That was certainly my assumption, especially during the perpetual furry hate that I saw in a lot of online communities at the time (which, for the record, I feel is warranted). Things may actually be easier now in that social media grants a platform to so many people, even those that shouldn't have a platform, that info about such kinks is more readily available.
>Her reaction to the leash and collar is especially poignant.
Her issue was the idea that she didn't like being treated as less than a person, something to be "trained and disciplined" like an animal. However, it sounds like you are into this sub/dom subservience thing and you may very well find another girl that does too, or at least is willing to take the time to understand and accept it. You may not find someone who will go whole hog into it, my wife certainly doesn't, but may be willing to do what she can to make sure you're happy.

On the ending of The Blair Witch Project:

There is no witch. The apocryphal dimension of the film's scholars' theoretical obsession is that revealing the Evil's identity would entail the cast's hypothetical survival. A witch would be a hole in the glass, therefore the certainty of the glass, between them and the effective cause that killed them. They might have overpowered it, God might have intervened, a bear might have eaten it, etc. What if we instead put ourselves in their predicament and only analyze the actual, and conclude that the Phenomenal itself killed them? That the vacuum of pure negative value which constitutes the world becomes literal in the wilderness. Semiotically, the final scene being a kind of explosive decompression: Mike is inside a basement, inside a derelict house, inside the wilderness, facing the wall, Heather's camera being the last layer of his removal from being. In being totally destroyed and no longer constituting himself, he even seems momentarily grafted onto the suction: is this image, of a still man facing the wall in a pitch black basement at night in the wilderness, not the primal nightmare of the supposed witch entity? Evil putting a mask on only to eat it, too, off.

How am I supposed to have "true" friends that I really bond with and a gf if my political views stand so much out of the normie realm? I'm a uni freshman and I've already kind of made a friend who's really cool and all but he's one of those apolitical types and I try to suppress my political views as much as possible because I don't wanna scare him off or anything but it's honestly very tiring and I can definitely feel that there's a disconnection there. Like if we were to have real, deep conversations it'd very likely get really awkward and possibly ruin the relationship.
Even in online circles my position seems too radical. I have no problem whatsoever with being friends with people that have totally different views and I'm also not the one who tries to bring politics into everything, but most people seemingly do have a problem with those who hold very different views, and I hate having to fake mine for others. I like getting alone with folks and always try to avoid confrontations so as to not make anyone uncomfortable in my presence. But I don't know how much longer I can play these types of games.
I need to find "real" friends that allow me to express myself or else I'm going insane. Pretty sure Hegel once said something along the lines of "home is where you see yourself reflected in". I think that's true

The case for Syria is especially weird to me since I'm literally of Syrian heritage, like my whole ancestry is Syrian and I still have relatives over there, and me telling people that I don't want Assad to be cucked because I don't want this country to end up like Libya is apparently enough for them to call me an Assad bootlicker who's brainwashed by Syrian state propaganda yadda yadda yadda. It's all so absurd to me.
>it sounds like you're talking to women and their orbiters.
Not really, I mean the friend I was talking about is pretty anti-feminist and is socially somewhere around center-right. Like I said I've got no problem with that, I can be cool with anyone from any political spectrum as long as they're cool with me. But he isn't one who questions even the slightest thing about the status quo, so I'd rather avoid anything political or else I might seem like a madman to him.

Do you know what nuanced positions are? Just because I'm a Marxist doesn't mean I have to dismiss everything that Idealists say or agree with every Marxist position. There's always room for nuance. I'm majoring in philosophy and I've read quite a lot, pretty sure I have a better idea of what I'm talking about than you. Stop projecting your own life story onto me.

Unfathomably based. I'm also pulling for Assad until a better alternative is found or at least seriously proposed. Definitely don't worry about expressing this view in conversation. Conservatives will respect it, white liberals will have no answer for it, and it's the truth.

You find yourself supporting every minority cause, because if one is clamped down on, how much longer will it be until the majority turns on you? It goes the other way too; you become a fanatic nationalist for your nation, even though your people have only been there for a few generations. You become politically schizophrenic, a staunch supporter of the majority and a defender of the minorities, and you try to make the best of it. Jews had to suffer this for 2,000+ years.

I have two kinds of sexual fantasies. One truly life-affirming. I remember that fucking my ex was like this. It felt like taking in a vast sky and breathing sweet air, feeling that every fibre of my being was used to the fullest in a worthy task, finding a path through her to the music of her breath (not to be too corny or anything). This is a wholly nurturing love, an enjoyment created ouf out of finding the music through her. I usually came as soon as I found that music, and it was all I wanted to find, and it was knowing that this satisfied her that fulfilled me. It wasn't meek, I wasn't serving her. We collided disproportionately, our movements complemented eachother. She enjoyed giving to me as well. The other is wholly about death. It is about thoughts of a nature like "I'm a going to fuck you to death"; "I am going to fuck you until you forget your name". It is about degradation, domination. In these fantasies I imagine I've tied the woman up and ordered her that she can not make a sound, and then leaning in and telling her in a deep voice "You're mine" and feeling her body break, her individuality lost in a rapture of humiliation and pleasure, and listening as she still tried not to squeal. It makes me hard just thinking about it. But it does not make the air taste of honey. I suspect these are the two sides to masculinity.

And then move in closer and hook my arm around her properly, not rough at all, and lean my head against hers and close my eyes and think "I can't believe I get to have this moment right now" and stand there for a couple of seconds.

I have no idea if my homoerotic attraction is just "prison gay" due to the fact that I'm going to be a 30 year-old virgin, or if it's genuine. My attraction to other boys started at the same time as my attraction to girls. I developed crushes on guys as a teenager. The thought of being a "cute couple" with another guy and holding hands while out in public gives me the warm fuzzies.

But I can't shake the idea that it would all melt away if I were in love with a woman.

Yes , we generally want our parents dead.
Look at popular fiction like comic books.
The hero is true to himself often because their parents are dead.
People who wants to kill themselves are often waiting for their mother to die first.
Etc..

>People in Europe are just not as dramatic

This is kind of what I meant, though I admit I worded it poorly. Whether its following the rules or not following the rules, people don't act so crazy about it in other countries it seems. Where I live people generally follow the new rules, but if someone is breaking the rules no one is going to stop them. People mind their business more. Which is ironic because Americans are the ones who are so loud about letting people do what they want.

Although rare I find that the moments that could be considered a 'fall" into love reveal most profoundly the limits of our conscious awareness. Every time this has happened to me, the person chosen has been an incredibly good match from the start. From the rational mind it appears as a sort of looks-match cope (the whole ordeal of love at first sight) but the similarities seem to be uncanny so much so that one has to confront the sheer amount of information that is communicated in our stances, faces, spacing etc. The invisible universe.

>You know that you don't have to eat fake soi burgers to be a vegetarian, right retard?
Be Anon,
Like meat,
While I find the concept of not eating meat slightly weird, to each his own, everybody has their food preference quirks.
Find out about Vegan food.
Most is based on “fake” meats, designed to look like real meat.
If I want a “fake” burger, I’ll fry up a giant portobello mushroom till it’s nice and browned in oil, and eat it on a round bun.
Tasty as fuck.
I might do the same with slabs of eggplant as well.
I’ll use the same topping as I might onna burger.

Why the fuck do Vegans need their Vegan food to look like meat?

Seitan and Tofu are also tasty when fried up.
No need to pretend it’s meat.

"sex" is what happens when you impregnate a woman. People have gathered a vast array of unrelated behaviors under the banner of "sexuality" for political and social reasons, but hormonally they're all an extension of your basic Sex drive. If you get aroused by mechs, that doesn't make you "mecha-sexual" it just means you got aroused by a mech and liked it. We are what we do.

What angers me is that it's never "refugees" of course but illegal no-papers refugees from Africa. If I went to Iceland with the idea of emigrating they'd probably say "oh you're from Europe? Do you have at least 3 STEM degrees so you can be a productive member of our society? Do you speak fluent Icelandic? Oh well then we're sorry you cannot enter our country lol. And you? What is your name? Oh you won't tell, that's fine you are brown so welcome aboard! OOGA BOOGA"
