i have major anxiety problems and benzos are one of the best things ever, why. WHY do they have to be so dangerous. They cure every ailment I have physical and mental, and yet I have to limit myself to once every few weeks in order to not ruin my life and become an addict.

i want to become a great novelist, but i find writing to be very difficult because i'm not there yet and hate reading my work; the disappointment and contempt is overpowering. i guess i just gotta power through it for like 10-20 years

He looks happy, content with his simple pleasures. He doesn't strive for impossible dreams, he doesn't posture as someone he's not. He's looking forward to the next Marvel film. He still regularly sees his childhood friends. He's never had a girlfriend, but he doesn't mind - he doesn't let resentment consume him and he'll be okay no matter what his station in life. Why oh why didn't I take the blue pill?

One of the most annoying trends on /lit/ right now, though it's been happening for a while, is people posting the snarky opinions of famous writers in threads about other writers. Invariably, the poster has read neither author.

Is this because I posted Nabokov's opinion of Dostoevsky? I don't agree with it, just wanted to give a Russian speaker's take on the matter. Mea culpa anon, I don't like the habit either.

I'm going to blogpost. I have begun to truly despise myself in a vicious and unsightly tantrum—yes, that's precisely what this is: a childish tantrum. It is, of course, projected only inwards; there is no sign of the tantrum displayed by my external behavior, aside from the usual despondency. On the interior, however, things are reaching what feels like an apex—at least I hope this is the apex; it can't get much worse from here without there developing a dangerously high chance of suicide. I am, as usual, as comfortable as I am miserable, and my comfort has increased alongside my misery; that is to say, I am blissfully incapable of striking beyond my mind's padded cell. Of course, this is all so laughably melodramatic that even I am unable to take myself seriously. I fully and truly despise myself; yet, as dictated by human nature, there is a bizarre paradox in this: in inverse proportion to my self-hatred, there is a reflected intensity in narcissism that serves to compensate—a festering, hideous self-obsession that provides solace here and there.

>>20218185
There people out there who seriously believe that there is no meaning, no afterlife, no judgement, that they are nothing but chemical reactions, that everything they like is a chemical reaction in some chemical soup they view of as reality, and it never crosses their mind that their outlook on life makes everything permissible.

If all of the above is true then everything is truly permissible. If the "main purpose" in life according to these so called "materialists" is to spread my genes and gethering food, what's stopping me from raping women, committing infanticide, and other such things? After all, nothing is sacred, there's no afterlife, no redemption, nothing after death

Do realize I don't believe in all of this it's just that these ideas have been creeping in. Every time I ask regarding it, these fags always have this answer for me ready but get angry when I show them that this is the natural consequence of their worldview.

i don't like their argument either but that heroin rebuttal doesn't really work unless you have an unlimited supply of heroin, and even then you could argue that overindulgence oversaturates the experience of life and reduces the quality of the pleasure

>>20219545
why would any person have an unlimited supply of heroin? this rebuttal doesn't work when you're speaking to any normal person

>>20219575
Do you pretend to be this retarded irl?

If life's meaning is pleasure, then the meaning of life is satiating those so-called "pleasure receptors" in the brain with chemicals until you die.

>>20219582
>If life's meaning is pleasure, then the meaning of life is satiating those so-called "pleasure receptors" in the brain with chemicals until you die.
yes, and unless you can supply your brain with an endless amount of heroin, the heroin route will result in more suffering than if you had gone without it entirely (due to addiction and withdrawals), so you might as well not do it at all if maximizing pleasure is your goal

>>20219597
That's not the point of my argument. My point is regardless of what you're doing you're just satiating a "chemical want" according to that worldview.

So supposing that this guy manages to get a drug that makes him activates these neurons forever did he acheive the most fulfilling life out of all of us?

>>20219224
what does she like about you then?

>>20219621
like i said, i don't like the pessimistic pleasure-seeking stance either. all i'm saying is that when conversing with these people, that heroin argument falls quickly and won't get through to them. also you ignored the second part of my first post, which addresses this point:
>even then you could argue that overindulgence oversaturates the experience of life and reduces the quality of the pleasure.
there is no getting through to people who truly believe in hedonism, they have to find their own way out of it.

/lit/ is the best forum for literature and that is a bad thing. this place sucks ass. I wish I knew even one person in real life that reads anything other than YA and horse training manuals. A plus would be if they were able to actually discus lit but thats not a requirement (as is evidence from my continuing to come here).

Where do all the traditional academics hang out? Are they so formal that they're all still in-person and don't have discords or anything?

>>20219639
You're right. While I don't want to converse with these people, I do want to know what outlook on life isn't actually a cope. I think I made a thread on /his/ asking the same thing. I've made several but couldn't find any answers worthwhile because they all recourse back to this same stance of materialism which we can demonstrate to be easily refutable.

>>20219697
well if you're in the hedonism boat and earnestly trying to find a way out, i wish you luck, i've been there and it's rough. i can recommend that you start with the greeks (unironically) if you haven't done so already specifically plato's five dialogues (euthyphro, apology, crito, meno, and phaedo). also reading about aristotle's idea of virtue ethics could help. if you're already familiar with that stuff and still on the fence, read kierkegaard and TBK (most importantly the zossima chapters, but also ivan's argument for context). best of luck.

>>20219654
I got a Mexican chick pregnant when I was 20. A year later she messaged me, without telling me she had a baby. We met up, because we implied we were going to hook up. Then I go in her room, and this Mexican chick has a white baby in her room. The baby looked like my sister. I was playing it off, waiting for her to say something, and she never did.

I looked at the kid, and then looked at her, and she just gave me this look. Still never said anything between us. I think I was playing dumb, but at the time, actually, I didn't really grasp that she might want me to say something. It may have gotten to that point, but we started chatting about something else while drinking vodka cranberries. After a while she seemed to not be looking me in the eyes. In retrospect, I think she probably didn't have the guts to lay it on me. We planned on going out that night, but there was this weird undertone that I didn't expect. I just wanted to have fun, but the way she was with me was like we were in a relationship.
I think she still loved me. I never loved her. She was probably depressed. I didn't have a job at the time (not a reliable job anyway), and I think she must have thought -- fuck it, I'm doing the single mom thing, and bringing this guy in might make things worse, and why would he bother.

t. academic

>>20218185
why it smelle like burnt toaft inhere

>>20219762
yeah this is pretty much it. its also a sample bias, because the academics who would actually show up to congregate are more likely to be people who are more extraverted anyway, and less introspective.

i noticed this same effect in school clubs. history club, psych club, philosophy club, they all have the same trajectory: the conversations get diluted to the lowest common denominator -- the serious ones stop showing up because they get bored -- dummies start bringing their friends and girlfriends -- and then its just a heap of obnoxious normies hijacking the space to hang out

theres a local book club where some college students host a book club, and i swear every club is just fags and women.

>>20219735
I'm not in these boats at all I'm actually in the "nothing is sacred everything is permissible" one. I just can't get myself to believe in God or follow a religion because it requires me to abandon reasoning for "faith" which I find a cope.

I have ress the western canon, read through Plato, read through Aristotle, and I found them and their claims unfounded. The only Greek that stuck with me was Heraclitus.

I haven't read into Kierkegaard though.

>>20219799
this desu senpai

>>20219812
oh, apologies for assuming you were a noob. sounds like we're both in a similar spot. i also found heraclitus to be among the few that stuck with me, along with epicurus. kierkegaard helped me with the faith thing, but i still haven't been able to throw myself into it fully. i haven't finished with him yet, though, so we'll see.

>>20219824
Interestingly, Epictetus applies a very realistic approach on Ethical matters, and Oriental Philosophy provides a superior Ontology, insofar as they emphasize the "becoming" more than "being" like Heraclitus does.

Despite being beyond Materialism, I "see" no God. I find it more appropriate to say "Heaven" instead. I do want you to share what you learned from Kierkegaard so I can fix my approach.

I apologize too. I thought you were one of those folks who try to come up with a cope for everything and defend materialism. Good to know we're in the same spot.

this is my argument for faith

The risk I took was calculated, but man am I bad at math.

I asked out a worker at Chik-Fil-A. Now I am banned from the establishment. I don't know if it was worth it.

>>20219857
well i can't say that kierkegaard has yet to offer me anything useful yet aside from giving me hope that the "leap of faith" is a feasible solution after all, despite my everlasting hesitancy; he seems to have directed his philosophy at people afflicted with this hesitancy. i'm only partway through the sickness unto death, so i can't give you a synopsis yet, but i'm optimistic about him. i recommended him earlier because he's managed to sell me with the first 30 pages of sickness unto death.
>they emphasize the "becoming" more than "being" like Heraclitus does.
do you mean the opposite? unless i just completely misunderstood heraclitus

>>20219857

I can't think of anything more contrary to experience, including the effect of experience itself. Resilience, charm, and subtlety are almost synonymous where intelligent species are concerned.

>>20218185
Any books about personal hangups limiting one's philosophical horizons? Recently I've been thinking about how even though I find the modern atomized globohomo world abhorrent I can't get into the rooted experience of community either because as far back as I can remember I've been always treated like shit by people around me and so naturally I can't find it in my heart to genuinely care about them either, or feel any duty towards them. This would be a solvable problem if only I didn't find individualism repugnant as well. As if I had the opposite problem of what most people in the west have, as if I was pathologically unaltruistic.

The NYC shooter is really tragic because I can see his whole life history over the last decade just by seeing what's come out about him. He really is just /pol/ but inverted, and I am /pol/ too, so I'm not saying this in a condemning /pol/ way.

It's much worse for him than it is for /pol/ actually, because at least /pol/ gets to feel like they're part of something, and most of their complaints about the status quo are valid. There is community and camaraderie for /pol/fags, and that helps stabilize the many schizos with those views. With this NYC guy, he's just some random black guy, who has been fed a black nationalism that is the same highly online form of /pol/'s white nationalism but inverted. His oppressed underdog narrative has nowhere to "go," except echo chambers that radicalize rather than stabilize him. The more he gets into it the less camaraderie he feels because he feels he and his people are just totally fucked. Like I said at least /pol/ has the feeling of "the world sucks, time to browse /pol/," but this guy was shouting into a void.

He seems genuinely high IQ, like the stuff he says is cogent and it's not the typical black nationalist or Black Hebrew Israelite talking points, he hates other blacks and sees them as irreversibly compromised by being taken from Africa, enslaved, and mixed. It's a coherent worldview, if you buy its premises then shit really is fucked. Again, at least /pol/ can go pour that feeling of "we're fucked" into rooting for Le Pen, or reading Amren, or something. This guy had nothing but doomerism to look forward to unless he radically changed his views, which is unlikely to happen because there is a lot of truth to them.

This incident is a lot more significant than "black nationalists are going to start killing white people more and more." It's that, but it's also a sad statement that probably the most interesting people in the black community with the most possibility for radically changing it, high IQ niggas with tendencies toward divergent views and concomitant mental illness risk, are going to be the useful idiots and cannon fodder of this dead end radicalization. This is the result of not having these debates decades ago when a peaceful split and coexistence between the races could have been possible.

Poor guy, no one should be trapped with views like that and no constructive outlets for them. It must have been hell, I recognize all the signs of a schizo going downhill into despair. I bet he was a nice dude and had a lot more complexity than this. Too many interesting people are going to be chewed up in meaningless hateful shit.

>>20220154
Same. but the more i think about it, at least I asked her out even if it failed spectacularly.

are stressed and unstressed syllables a meme? and why is poetry analysis so fucking robotic? like, it has 0 soul. I get this guys example as being one of the best poets alive thanks to his master class shilling https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elrnAl6ygeM and it just has no soul and is boring. where did poetry education start to diverge to quantum computer and separates from the art feeling of a painters brush?

>>20220164
>There is community and camaraderie for /pol/fags

uhh what?

>Like I said at least /pol/ has the feeling of "the world sucks, time to browse /pol/," but this guy was shouting into a void.

I admittedly was never a regular on /pol/ (haven't visited it in years, either) but this is obviously untrue. The /pol/ side of the internet (as in the broadly politically incorrect side, not the board) clearly has a radicalization pipeline of its own because people who are into that sort of shit constantly and almost instinctively inflame their sense of despair and hopelessness with the endless supply of material that the "clown world" provides for it. Anything that suggests that things will ever get better gets drowned out by people mass-replying variations of "cope". There's no element of the politically incorrect side of the internet that serves as a pressure-releasing valve for /pol/tards, because their view of the world presupposes that there's no redemption, no deliverance from the clown world.

It's just that since the /pol/ side of things are policed much, much more stringently than the kangz (not to mention how the media treats /pol/tards in comparison to kangz) most /pol/tards just sink into their hole of despair rather than try anything violent. Kangz on the other hand are constantly bombarded with messages that essentially boil down to encouraging them being violent against whitey.

>This is the result of not having these debates decades ago when a peaceful split and coexistence between the races could have been possible.

Lmao at your naiveté.

>>20220286
It radicalizes but stabilizes within the radicalism, every thoughtful person I know in the last ten years has radicalized to some extent but they are all basically in tacit and mostly unconscious agreement that although things are bad, they are either going to get better as the pendulum swings back in their direction, or the coming cataclysm will at least allow for an honest battle between their side and the enemy side. This gives them a basic sense that shooting up their workplace is not just stupid and evil, but unnecessary, and it's the "unnecessary" bit that prevents the nothing-to-lose schizo and the doesn't-care-either-way misanthrope from doing it.

This guy didn't have that. The only people he could talk to would have just said "dass rite, dass rite" and egged him on. He didn't have any sense of an impending battle that could actually go the way of his side. He just saw himself and his whole people as degraded monsters, oppressed and humiliated under a system that can't ever be fixed or fought.

Whatever you want to say about /pol/ radicalizing libertarians into young Hitlers, at least they don't have that level of despair, or at least not exclusively. They can go banter on 4chan or in some video game and feel like they're spiting the man and fighting for the righteous underdog. This guy didn't feel like the underdog biting back, he just felt broken.

Even when /pol/ gains momentum it has centripetal dimensions to it, like the groypers being conscious of the need to purge extremists. Although they have pretty extreme retards too, but at least they know that advocating violence is retarded, and they know this instinctively because they know they have momentum to be a serious political force within a few years. Again this black guy did not know that, in fact he knew that the entire system pretending to kiss his black ass was fake and was really just more proof of his degradation. That must have been hell.

Please don't take my advice too seriously. I don't know fully know what I'm talking about. I want to help you, to be a good person, but sometimes I get ahead of myself. You've probably heard that the road to hell is paved with good intentions. That may be true. Perhaps I should've looked at my own troubles first and kept silent about yours. Forgive me, anon.

Eh, if they become an actual problem you can be sure that they're going to end up getting stamped out without much of a problem.

When I was a mere young boy a fine girl in my school had an obviously large pair of breasts that caught the attention of every person on Earth, but for some reason she choose me, she would often lay her breasts upon me every day, during lunch, class, whenever I met her. However, unfortunately for stupid little me I was too scared to take advantage of such a wonderful situation and am haunted by this humiliation ever since. My mind is entangled, broken by the cowardism set forth by her enigmatic prowess in my young, sexually-addled mind. I will never get the chance again, and now I'm too attached, rent free, to her bosoms to ever find a new pair.

>it's not all bad edition

Just went on a date. Not sure if it'll go anywhere but she was a nice girl and we had a great conversation. I love hearing people's stories and such so if the least I get out of a date is a good conversation then I count that as a win.

plus it's always more material for my novel

The only people I'd be comfortable showing my writing to for comment are friends, which poses a dilemma: If I write a lot of the things I want to write, they will notice very quickly that I am not just exploring an idea, that I have not come up with some interesting hypothetical kind of broken person, that it's all too obvious I'm relaying things I've actually thought or felt in the ways I've actually thought and felt them.

There are no exciting prejudices or violent fantasies worthy of hiding. But there are petty embarrassments: being caught writing a series of "self inserts", and handing over a sort of instruction manual to ones own way of thinking and acting.

I wish you knew how annoyed all these stories about guys missing obvious signs from women makes me. I never got to experience such a thing. No matter what I did or what I said, my existence was a nuisance to them.

>>20220448
unrionically i watched the movie boss level a few months ago but now i started thinking about my life in it canonically. I walk the same pathways every day literally and non figuratively, the same cement, same roads, possibly the same people you see everyday. I say if I had the same privilege of the guy from boss level everyday to restart his day better than before I say I do have that privilege, and I still have time left on this earth because of it. so instead of wincing about it, if I thought my back wasn't straight enough, I hadn't been keeping up my chest or eye level straight yesterday, I can't remain a gaze with someone elses, I can't speak clearly or loud enough, the next day i hit that pavement I'll just try and improve myself because I'm already consciously thinking of it and might as well not cower in fear over it. honestly with women I started to realize I need to start to keep myself presentable and confident if I ever meet my future wife. doing so starts with thinking about my life like that boss level guys and fixing all my previous mistakes the day before

Few women are good at signaling. (Legit certified pussy destroyer)

when people break up how often is it that one of the partners already cheated and uses that event to mark the end of their previous relationship? Or is it more common that people really break up totally and then get with the 'backup'.

I’m having a hard time confiding with my peers. Most of the time it’s light hearted banter but it takes a turn to jabs I don’t appreciate. I cannot speak to family on matters that bother me or the like as I do not want them to worry and my close friends are distant and I do not want to burden them with my issues. People are rude and nasty to each other. I was always under the impression we should be cordial where possible but it’s never mutual when I take those first steps.

I feel alone and I cannot express myself.

It's usually that whatever rift was created in the relationship has caused the behavior that's occurring for one reason or another. If someone has cheated the relationship has already been over for some time.

what did you think of the movie

I feel as though I'm getting to a new level of understanding social communication that is terrifyingly 'based'. ill go about my day then remember something that was said or done and realize that the utterances were not as spontaneous as they seemed in the moment and that everything staged was staged to demonstrate or signal a trait possessed by the actor. for context many of these interactions are from parties/shows.

The more devout a Catholic I have become, the more I have grown to despise the United States. I'm even an American, but my own country increasingly fills me with loathing. The United States is the most anti-Catholic country in the history of the world. It has been hostile to the Church since the very beginning, when there were references to Catholicism negatively placed in the Declaration of Independence.

Over and over, America has been an enemy of the Church. The Know Nothing Party and the Ku Klux Klan actively persecuted Catholics. Every single Catholic candidate for president before JFK was slandered and assaulted, and JFK got fucking killed. The United States dropped a pointless atomic bomb on Nagasaki, the most Catholic city in Japan. Catholic priests and nuns and laity were ruthlessly killed in South America by American-backed death squads; they also murdered Saint Oscar Romero as he was saying Mass. All over the world, America spreads gay marriage, gender theory, birth control, and abortion, all directly opposed to the teachings of the Church. Hollywood puts out blatant anti-Catholic propaganda and calls it mass entertainment.

Why should I have any great love for my home country, when it blatantly opposes my religion so much? My religion is more important to me than any country to which I could belong. Why shouldn't I hate America? Why shouldn't I despise America? Why shouldn't I curse America, in Christ's name, and wish for a terrible fate to befall it?

Why shouldn't I wish for the worst possible death and ruin to overcome America? Wouldn't that be fitting punishment, for a nation which has been an enemy of Christ's own Church from its very beginning?

Heraclitus is a bit more complex than that. He is more about the symmetry of experience. He emphasizes Becoming and change very well, but isn't partial to either Being or Becoming like Parmenides. Kahn makes sense of him in The Art And Thought of Heraclitus.

I really really hope that i can make things up for my father before our time runs out. I was never much of a bad kid, but i know that I brought a lot of frustrations and disappointments to his life, things that he didn't deserve on top of all the bad shit he's already been through. It's the most pathetic thing a son can hope to do but i aspire to make a good movie for him. I don't have a lot of handy skills, which is his forte, so the only other way to bring him some honor would be to contribute to one of the few constant things he's always loved. I don't know how else to make him happy, but i dearly wish that i can figure it out in time.

and God knows best, and surely many of them are fine people. I just thought it striking and somewhat believable.

God is not subjected to suffering, I'm.. we're flying right by one another. I'm saying you're wrong, what I meant to say was: this problem is adressed in religious scriptures. God is not subject to suffering, no. God is elevated above any such thing. Suffering as it is is subject to Gods purpose.
>We have not created the heavens and earth and everything in between without purpose—as the disbelievers think. So woe to the disbelievers because of the Fire!
>Or should We treat those who believe and do good like those who make mischief throughout the land? Or should We treat the righteous like the wicked?

as regards the afterlife:
>Abu Huraira reported Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) as saying that: Allah the Exalted and Glorious, said: I have prepared for My pious servants which no eye has ever seen, and no ear has ever heard, and no human heart has ever perceived but it is testified by the Book of Allah.

Considering the popularity of the show, how deeply engrained it is in our collective unconcious, that even in 2022 you'll stumble across references of it everywhere and also considering the truth and purity the show articulated, it is not far fetched to say that SPONGEBOB is the OVERARCHING NARRATIVE of our age. Just like Hitler accessed the collective unconscious of 1930s Germany, the unifying pieces for a divine cultural revolution in our time are based on our SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS shaped intuition and cultural identity. You can be lost in space but as soon as you rediscover SpongeBob SquarePants you'll rediscover your cultural identity and know who you are. It's like meeting your parents, your old teachers, seeing your hometown or hearing another familiar voice directly speaking to your soul.

fair enough. my whole concept is doing away with "freedom from"

Here is the path:

You sit down, you get enlightened. You get enlightened again. You get so enlightened that you return to being normal.

You get so enlightened that you realize that everyone around you has always been enlightened and has already achieved the full path. You realize there is nobody who is unaware of anything. They are all conscious of the ultimate nature of existence, they are all aware of that which you have spent years to become aware of. They have deconstructed it all. Infact, they have deconstructed it all so much, that the only last thing you have to achieve their final level of enlightenment, is to forget completely about enlightenment, truth and all the nonsense you have gathered.
And then you suffer, you suffer as you always have. That is your sacrifice and your ultimate Truth. You cry about how you want to stop suffering, and seek, utterly aware, but blind to the truth. Your blindness is your ultimate awareness. And one day, you decide you want to seek truth and love. And you sit down so you get enlightened.

You ever meet a girl who is so uplifting that you wish you could be a completely different person for her? Like just go back in time and rewrite the last 10 years of your life so that every decision you made would form your character in such a way that you could match her person and feel that feeling in perpetuity?

The refinement of my room region looks beyond belief.
I'd sleep forever here if I could, but cannot becasuse it's not quite

Built, accidentally, to last as the suavely smoke glass
I drink from, will persist for steellar time,

Montaigine wouldn't notice the difference, at first, though the difference

Would make him truly happy, and I'd be happy to give him
Everything he wants, if not from me.

Roaring wind outside my windows
Driven by a sun that's almost overhead

An ocean of lawn flatly placid almost to the horizon
On which some other building floats like an illustrated cloud

Under sky a perfect blue, the look of silent bliss
As if I slept while sailing an ideal polynesia.

Thinking about his juxtaposition of cruelty and April
I think of the bitch in this sensorium

Sleeping like a fat and immaculately clean cat
Like my favorite suave lad

Or the amiable purr of meaning, monarch wings.

>never too late to be better.
I don't want to be 'better', and to change for another person like some groveling and feckless coward.
But that's how I feel, and I'm afraid of it. I feel despicable because I know only weak men think like this. I thought that I had known who I was, and that I have things I must do before I die which require the fullness of my attention, but just a bit of female validation has thrown a wrench into my plans, and sapped the color from my well-ordered routine. Perhaps my dreams are a house of cards, a cope supreme.

But what would happen if I were to be with a girl? I'm sure I would be happy temporarily, but even this feeling would not last. One must not depend on happiness outside of oneself or God, I think. What I have decided is the point of my life is mine, and even if it leaves me in an isolated state the fact that I have chosen it makes it mine more than any other person could ever be. I owe the world my gifts, and I will see my task through to the end.

Dumb image. Stage 1 is a representation of reality, so it's referring to the picture of fish? But then the rest of the stages aren't referring to the picture of the things, but the things themselves. Stage 2 would be the same as stage 1 because it's also a picture of the thing and nothing more, but it's not about the picture but the cooked fish which don't look like fish making it a distortion (it's still fish though, so it doesn't make sense). Stage 3 is the same as stage 2, but the things are cooked fish shaped to look like a caricature of fish. The caption is that it calls into question what the reality is (but for who?). It doesn't make me question anything. I know fish still exist, I know that the image is showing cooked fish shaped like caricatured fish. Stage 4 is completely unrelated to every other stage. It's just Oreos that has flavored Swedish Fish patties instead of the cream they usually use. No relation to reality? It's using everything that exists in reality. Swedish Fish are real, so are Oreos. There's nothing not real about stage 4.

/lit/ has gotten pretty shit.

Write about the best time of your life.

When we're you most alive, most fulfilled, and what was it like?

And what changed, are you doing something differently now?

I just finished my term paper and realised that I don't remember if I actually signed up for the exam (which is the term paper). But I also can't look because the servers are down for some reason. Pray for me, brothers!

>Write about the best time of your life.
When I was 7-12 years old I made my first friends. The happiest instant of my life so far is when I got a phone call from his family asking if I wanted to come along and watch a movie with them. Having friends is amazing and I'm really glad I had this experience before my life went to shit

>And what changed, are you doing something differently now?
My brain chemistry is all fucked up -- probably related to my gut bacteria. For about 7 years now I haven't really felt emotions or pleasure, all food tastes like cardboard, I can't get excited for things, I don't feel fear when I play horror games, it's all the same. I don't think I made any mistakes. It's just this weird problem I can't solve.

I went to a free Bible camp. Lots of friends, could do whatever you want except morning exercise and mass were mandatory, lots of activities (I did archery, kayaking, sauna literally every day), though could've had sex but turned them down (I was too scared to go through with it), got to kayak to an island in the middle of the lake and camp there with my friends, kayaked with friends out in the restricted part (the river that was connected to the lake), also did canoeing, pedal boating, jet skiing, many things on the lake, but also a bunch of things on land like tennis, and more.

I'm cutting the Lexapro in order to live with the pain.

Everything in creation is unfathomably interesting. When my grandmother died they took a sample of her saliva and apparently there is a machine that will read you your family’s genealogy with nothing more than that little sample. I have crackpot theories on how the world works in big and small ways. It’s so damned interesting. Have you ever had a symbolic dream? I mean I’ve had many visions that are seemingly a dancing circus of living symbols. Why are they there? Do they live there in the dreams? To me that is the real world.

The holocaust was bad yada yada but if Hitler won then I wouldn’t have to deal with my very Jewish boss and slowly watch my company mutate into a soulless gaslighting money machine.

Get a gf. It's trivially easy. Cheat on her too women always look more beautiful when they are crying.

Hanging out in the oughts with my old friends. Everyone else got married and had kids. I didn't and regret it. Though its not my fault. I mean most of the women I dated were bona fide whores. Two of them with penchant for coal burning. I know its not right but I physically accosted both of them. At 39, even though I'm a sexhaver I sympathize with incels that I hang out with them on forums and I'm still alone to this day. Hell my last ex accused me of rape even though she was more into it than I was. Women should have absolutely no rights at all.
