I wish deer looked like this even though its bad for herbivores to have eyes set like this

I want to go to bed but i don't want to wake up to go to my job tomorrow. I should take the bulletpill.

I wonder if we can invent a genophage, like in mass effect, to neuter all the arabs and nig bunnies.

I already fapped once today and want to again already.

I wish I had a pussy so I could rub it all day and have orgasm after orgasm. It sucks only being able to cum once during sex.

Why is studying so rewarding? Reading and learning is fun while I do it yet I still am a lazy piece of shit.

This summer I'm either going to move to the next level of consciousness, or at least certitude, or I'm going to go fucking insane. I keep picturing that scene from Futurama where Fry finally drinks 100 coffees or whatever and he turns into a shining golden god. Or Vegeta going to the fruity asteroid to cry about how Goku beat his ass. I'm going to the asteroid. I'm going to sit in my room and read all the shit I know is necessary for a breakthrough, until I have the breakthrough.

I'm pretty sick of internet drama and arguing with idiots online. So much of my day is devoted to my brain just dipping in and out of previous and/or imagined arugments with randoms about shit.

Memes have both enhanced my life and use of media but of also fundamentally changed the way I relate to them.

I just wish I was normal. Barring that I just wish I was normal at some point in my life so I would know what I was missing and might have had some chance to avoid this. Barring that I wish I had the motivation to hurry up and finish assignments so I can jerk off and read Dead Souls.

None of these posts have anything to do with literature in any way.

I need to quit drinking and driving. At least so far from my apartment. I'm in some hipster bar in a part of town that has undergone enough gentrification to be presentable (well lit, decent property values, but shit school) and these people are a pin to look at and listen to. I don't know why I keep going to these places, maybe because these bars tend to have attractive waitresses and patrons and I hope to get laid. In any case, I don't learn anything and I still don't get laid. Maybe I'll try Lenny's Gentleman's Club next time.

I always suspected I was being dosed but brushed it off, thinking no one would stoop so low. I was wrong. Now I'm lucky by the skin of my teeth, but I have no fucking remorse, poison me and the gloves are off.

>>9456833
Drunk but what the hell.

My ambition outweighs my discipline, but that's no new story. What man is he that sees a wing and does not dream of flying? Why, man, would he not aspire to the highest planes? I have no great qualities. I bring no new thoughts. I hold in my heart no joys, no sorrows, that a thousand souls before me haven't felt. Among them: they who, with great Will, held such a might over words that I can scarcely fathom joining their divine profession. Still, I look to the sky. Still, I drink their words. Still, I dream.

>>9456841
Thank you, friend.

>>9457981
Go away for awhile. Go away from wherever you are, and take only this man's works with you. They should be all you need to figure out that consciousness doesn't work like that.

>>9457993
There is no normal. There is, however, stupid, and stupid spends a great deal of time trying desperately to be normal.
Improve your discipline. Quit arguing with people online, and do your assignments. That's what discipline is - it frees you from your base impulses and allows you to achieve things beyond the short-term numbing effect that you're so used to.

Fuck everything. I'm going to shed this skin and live my dreams. Sorry friends and family, I'm not the person you thought I was, the little boy you tried to teach and reign in. I'm 25 out of God knows how long, and that's much too long wasted trying to get something "right".

I'd die tomorrow if I was doing something I loved.

I'm writing about a female serial killer, and I am having trouble thinking about the characteristics that will distract people from understanding she's the common link in the murders.

>>9456833
mother fuckers

I wonder how much drinking is lethal. I know some people manage a litre of vodka a day, I finished a half bottle of whisky and wasn't even drunk but I did have a heavy meal.

>>9458200

>>9458202
I have a similar idea, my killer is/was abused by her spouse/parental figure. It becomes very obvious later on in the novel that she is acting out of a sort of base animalistic nature of revenge and rage lashing out at the same type of person she was.

<s>I am a mediocre guy who loves to write,shitty things</s>

my own writing is my favorite writing and it baffles me

I really should be doing more work for school. Also I should read more.

I just wrote a 1500-word paper in 2 hours. It doesn't seem like it sucks, either. Feeling pretty good.

I work during the night because it's cooler and quieter. I'm out of sync with the day dwellers, but I like being the privileged few who own the night.

My pocket computer has a built in location tracker. It was sold as a service. Don't get me wrong, it's useful. But a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down. I know the government and the corporations are watching my every move. Who I talk to. What I say. Where I've been. They used to call people who thought the government watched our every move paranoid. Now we call them mum and dad. It doesn't faze me that I am being watched. I know they can't do anything without exposing their systems further, or at least the true reason for their systems. The key is to be just inside the extreme. Allow other poor souls to attract the attention by agitating just a little too hard.

I'm finishing up my stint in front of the glowing screens as my fellow night dwellers are finishing theirs in front of flashing lights. People party the night away in the old buildings of the city. It's not talked about openly, but people are taking brain bugs and glitches. I'm not against taking it, but I don't take it myself. Why? They haven't yet invented firewalls and backups for your brain for when things go wrong. I'll leave that trip for my retirement.

I take a quick look at my pocket computer to see if it's time to make my way to the bus stop for my nightly exercise routine. Says it came early; I just missed it. Great, 10 minutes gone. Only 33,112,832 left to go, according to current calculations.

I exercise every other day. I don't do it because I need to stay strong to capture my food or to defend my territory. My exercise takes me nowhere, builds nothing and gives me nothing in return. The only reason I do it is to keep my brain vessel alive. I do it to hopefully see the singularity. Suffice to say not many of my fellow gym goers understand why I am there.

We're on the verge of upgrades. Some people have them already, but they are typically reserved for those who need it most. People who've lost a part. People who's parts are broken. I guess upgrades are going to those who need it most. I've got a 50% chance of surviving the next half century. If I'm lucky enough, the new upgrades should be ready just as most of my natural parts are ready to give in. That should be give me a few more centuries up my sleeve.

I don't know what I'm waiting for.

I'll find out.

Is 220 pages and 114,712 words too much?
I'm only halfway done according to my own measurement.

The short qt who sold me a jacket.

I really should be studying but instead of trying to become the best phycisist I can, I just browse 4chan and a few other sites. I hit refresh over and over again, not doing anything, not even enjoying he content. Just... refreshing...

I put on the same 20 or so videos on youtube. They play on repeat. I visit the same sites. Sometimes I even end up rereading past threads. There are days that due to the guilt of not doing anything, I end up eating half a chocolate bar.

I can't sleep. I go to bed at 00:00, end up sleeping at 03:00, then wake up at 08:00, too tired to really focus.

I'm not a complete waste, as I've managed to score some good points thus far, but I need to change ways, and fast...

Not to mention that I don't really know what to pursue. I don't really have a passion for any specific branch of physics, sans the stuff I read on my comics and books and wish to make a reality, but they're so OTT it's not even worth trying. I don't want to end up a high school teacher...

>>9458389
try ASMR or low key podcasts for sleeping

trick is to find something that can keep your wandering mind interested, but you can also fade in and out of without caring too much

>>9458389

>>9458408
why not just go with normal white nosie or soft music. Someone talking doesn't seem to good for falling asleep imho.

>>9458299
Finish it, and then cut ruthlessly

>>9458414
music doesn't work for me, i need to feel "not alone" and be able to drop in in the conversation without being obligated to

>>9458435
>feel "not alone"
does this whole attitude or incapability of falling asleep without your noises change when you are in the same bed or at least room with someone when falling asleep?

I made coffee with a coffee maker for the first time in my life: am I an adult now? Anyway, it's dusgusting. Too strong.

Exams are so easy it's ridiculous. I'm probably gonna end up teaching + doing research, but I'm afraid I feel like a failure after that. I wanted to be a filmmaker and I'll end up talking about directors my whole pathetic life. Is there a way I become a teacher + researcher without feeling like I failed? Anyway, is that really what I want to do with my life? What if it isn't? I have an useless degree.

Also I finished reading IJ yesterday and now I feel quite weird. I got the "story" but I wonder if such complexity was necessary.

>>9458408
I tried it, but... I generally feel like I'm ready to feel asleep during the day, and as soon as it goes 23:00 or so, I "wake up". I've tried exercising, I've tried not to sleeping more than an hour at noon, I've tried teas and chais and all that, but... nada.

>>9458414
It's depressing, isn't it? To be studying what you supposedly loved, but have so many books, so little time and too many random subjects, that you feel trapped. The worst thing is, chances are, you won't be the Bohr or the Heisenberg, the Iron Man or the Doctor Doom. You, me, and the majority, would be lucky to be in the sub-team- of the sub-team of the team that will assist in the creation/discovery of something substansial.

Dsic: Universities work differently around here, hence the whole "too many subjects" comment. You don't choose here, you just study what you're told.

>>9456841
That's a great post.

>>9458288
Is that a reference to something? Anyway I enjoy your post even if you sound kind of edgy m8.

>>9458389
Are you interested in physics?

>>9458453
>Are you interested in physics?
Very much. It's just that living outside of the US and receiving a fuck-all education, coupled with the fact that chances of discovering/creating something monumental are rather slim, it makes me feel as if I'm just killing time.

And even if that wasn't a problem, I don't know what to major in. I just... feel kinda lost, and there's really nobody who can help me with that.

TL;DR: Everybody wants to be Reed Richards, but chances are we'll only ever be Paste-Pot-Pete, or at best, the Wizard...

>>9456833

I'm sitting on a lot of money, I just haven't been able to get it yet.

>>9456833
I keep trapping myself within circles. I keep thinking to myself that I'm useless and struggle so much because I'm depressed, but using that as an excuse only makes me hate myself more. I did think it was funny though when my nephew did a shit on the carpet, rolled it up into a nice, meaty, ball and placed it under my mother's bed all because he was too shy to admit he shat himself.

who the fuck even has attention span to read a book? I don't even remember when I actually finished a book I started. Books that have similar structure to Beyond Good and Evil are a lot less pain in the ass to read because the chapters are extremely short and condensed. I feel like most authors just want to waste the reader's time.

Over 1,000 words written today, still got all day ahead of me. Nearly 10,000 words into my 7th book. Made almost $50 in March from my books. Made almost $50 in April from my books. Feels good. Write more, self-publish more, keep promoting, and I believe I can be a full-time writer in about eleven to twenty-three months. Make a profession out of something I love. I believe that is something that everyone should aspire towards, and I believe it can provide great happiness. Make a living by doing what you love.

I masturbated to an asian girl, a white girl, and a black girl (male) today.

My friend came over and smoked with me yesterday. We're all seniors in HS. We became friends through her trying to workout some sort of relationship with my best friend, she wanted help and needed someone to vent to considering she already had a boyfriend. She says she doesn't know what to call themselves referring to her and my friend.

Last night she laid back toward me on my couch and I held her hand in mine as we talked for a bit. Pretty /lit/. No care in the world, would be nice to have her as a gf, but I've set up this emotional boundary where I'm making it hard for myself to like a girl like this, regardless of how amazing she is.

>>9456868
my last fwb could only cum once then she was basically done for the night.

current one can just keep going and going. I'm honestly so jealous of grills.

>>9457064
studying is fine if you enjoy the subject matter, then it just becomes fun reading. The problem is when you have to do a test on it.

>>9458299
114,712 words and only 220 pages? You must be using a pretty big format. I'm set for 5x8" and 220 pages can get me about 75,000 words probably.

It's too much if it's your first book and you hope to traditionally publish. If you're self-publishing, who the fuck cares? Write as much as you like, but I would advise cutting it into a series. if you end up with 228,000 words, breaking it into three books would be a good call. Practically a necessity if you're going for traditional publishing.

>>9458649

you're too young to know!!

sometimes I wonder whether I decided to study electrical engineering because half of the men on my father's side are electricians and it became rooted in my subconsciousness that I should be somehow naturally skilled in that field or if I'm actually interested in it. I always thought that electricity was my favourite area of physics but the truth is I started uni knowing nigh fuck all about it. I never explored it as a kid (actually I switched interests every month on average), never tried to build my own circuits and stuff (well, I built a very primitive electromagnet once) and never explored the theoretical side of it all wider than school syllabus required. I'm trying hard at school and I'm not doing too bad but every once in a while I hit a wall that will have to do with some more technical aspects and I start to wonder if I'm even cut out for STEM.

I'm limiting myself to one thread, per board, per day. I looked through the catalog and I already know that this will be torturous until I get used to it, but I've already managed to abandon porn and impure (by my definition) masturbation, so I'm confident.

>>9456833

>My IQ is one hundred forty-four. That's fourteen points above genius level. Ninety-nine point nine-ninth percentile. That means there are around seventy million people as smart or smarter than me out there in the world; surely at least one other bridled genius with an empty spot in his head where a magnum opus will form one day is sitting on a couch in a gated neighborhood next to his mother right now, being uncerimoniously subjected to reality television. Surely there is at least one other person like me somewhere rotting away watching will-be trophy wives pull each other's hair and vie for attention on camera. I can't be alone. It dawns on me while a woman with a diphthong in her name jabs a finger accusatorially at a production guy holding a sound boom in one of the program's more self-aware moments (allowing the shot makes the whole thing seem less scripted, I imagine--which goes some distance toward maintaining the 'reality' factor, ironically the genre's only actual selling point), that I could be a writer. It takes no equipment. It takes no initial investment, no trade skills, no money, nothing but the capacity for a great idea and word processing software. I have Microsoft Office. My IQ is one hundred forty-four, and in high school a teacher of mine accused me of plagiarizing something I had written myself, she called my mother and said there's no way a kid wrote this. So we put together my case, my mother and I: an impregnable defense consisting of three essays I had written for previous courses, and then sent in the package of evidence. My established writing style earned me an apology from a forty-three year old high school history teacher, all by itself. I open my laptop and start writing down possible titles for a novel, deciding almost immediately that any author who goes with the "The _____" formula is a trite idiot and I decide that throughout the course of my critically acclaimed career, I will never title anything like that because I am not a hack or a charlatan. I have seen every episode of this show, and that woman never apologizes to anyone.

Turns out it was a teacher. Good on /pol/ for doing that, so I'll give them that much. Continue fighting the good fight against Antifa. They are the true fascists.

There are two people I love and admire above anyone else and one of them is dying, and quickly. The cancer is causing him to starve so every day he looks smaller.

When you get past that quarter life mark you realise how little time you have left. Which is in one way bad, when you let it consume you: The doubts, the fear, balling you up; smaller and smaller till you shrivel pruned and mummified.
But in a way its a good thing to get that old, because now you can get past that awkward phase of living and just get on with things. You're 26 now. No time for bullshit. You're going to die soon. You want something, you do it. Fuck everyone else and their perspective. Get selfish. Get self-ish. You've thought too long about what other people think and feel when all along it was always about you and should have always been about you.
You want to read that book? Go fucking read it. No. Don't put it in the every sinking voidful abyss that is the "To Do" pile. It will never get done if it cannot battle its way back up to the front of your mind right away, as is the caveat of the short-term concious mind. I personally have spent way too much time not reading, which is criminal since its obvious I was personally cursed with a writer's mind: Obnoxiously self-aware and relentlessly melodramatic.

For a long time I wanted to craft, but spent too long worrying about crafting shit, I never crafted a damn thing at all. A hacks a hack, but guess what? A hack does shit shamelessly. They make enough shit to be recognised for making shit.And so should you too. Well, less on the making shit part but at least doing something that makes other people talk about you in some capacity.
That's legacy right there. The one thing people strive for that can't bear the thought of children crawling around their feet or just children alone for the madly ambitious. So yes. Get greedy. Read loads of books. Get a fucking eReader and hit that 3000 limit and read at least 10% of that. You've accomplished something for yourself. You have brought forth fuel for the furnace in the back of the mind. Light those dusty embers you left to perish in your adolescent years. The mind is in motion now, careering somewhat aimlessly but thats a good thing. Fuck what anyone else says, career into that damn wall if you have to. Smashing through it is what you want. A mind with no boundaries, no fucking breaks.
Don't give no motherfucking chad the chance to suplex you for 9999 damage. Get the pen to paper and throw that energy out you've been gathering all this time. Write until it hurts, and then write some more.

Nothing matters. Failure doesnt matter, because the act of doing alone puts you into the top percentile of people.
I have conversed with many people over the years and often enough 99% of those people will have nothing to say, (yet oddly enough feel entitled to be heard). I always wondered why but now I know. Those people are not do-ers. They only consume and follow the orders of others. Their lives are automated, look through their eyes, and you will see the cogs and gears and string that holds them together. Souless.

You are probably drinking because of depression. That adiction couldn´t come from nowhere. Now, seeing that you can´t stop drinking could lower your self-steem and make you more depressed.

Just as in the celestial realm, the track of one planet will sometimes be determined by two suns; just as, in certain cases, suns of different colors will shine on a single planet with red light one moment and green light the next, and then strike it again, inundating it with many colors all at once: in the same way, thanks to the complex mechanics of our “starry skies,” we modern men are determined by a diversity of morals; our actions shine with different colors in turn, they are rarely unambiguous, – and it happens often enough that we perform multi-colored actions.

I heard that some of the wall is going up.

I'm thinking of mongoloid genocide. This little civility game we've started playing- avoiding warring at all costs to let our tribal enemies thrive- is getting tired. Instead of the strongest doing what it exists to do--crush the weak--we are so spooked by the last world war that we've all turned into weak little shits bending over backwards to let inferior people coexist with us. The orientals will take power of this earth before too long and it is plain to see that their society is bordering on the subhuman. A society like China's produces nothing of beauty and only exists to ruin our earth and serve their own apathetic needs. Western society is the only one capable of furthering the human race in the direction of perpetual enlightenment and betterment. Assigning any value to the inferior cultures of the world will be the death of mankind as we know it; we will not go out in a glorious fashion, blowing each other sky high in a beautiful nuclear Armageddon, rather, we will slowly devolve back into ugly, lazy, slanted-eyed beasts.

There's a direct corellation between how tired I get and how much my essays suck. As a result, the draft I'm workin on for my final is probably the lamest thing I've turned in all semester. There's a good 5-page paper in there somewhere, but the brief really doesn't need 10 to cover everything, so there's a lot of unneeded example in the middle as filler.

we'll just interbreed with them eventually, the only real threat to the future of humanity is if the african population goes unchecked and the majority of the planet because black with no neanderthal dna, then we're stuck and not getting into space, and the human race will die when the sun burns out

I really thought that I was prone to ascetism, and that deep down I did not care about poverty, sex and power.
It turns out I was wrong, it was an argument from ignorance: as soon as I've experienced these 3 aspects of life I was sold.

I don't want to strive for luxury, sex addiction and power structures, what I really desire is that kind of serenity that rich people who do not have to work experience everyday. Waking up whenever I want, not having to care about minor expenses, living in a nice house, having a girlfriend and some friends. These are not the goals of my life, rather I feel that this is what I need in order to be serene while going on my path. It's the background I want in my life.

Now, I could attain it through merciless, obsessive careerism, but that sounds like a dull life to me. Instead I'm really thinking about moving out to a poorer country (I was thinking about somewhere in North Africa, like Morocco) and live like a king there with the 1200$ my parents send me everyday. It's still just a fantasy, but this desire is now engraved in my mind.

The majority of the desparation and ennui on here is self perpetuated nonsense because people refuse to do what several of the writers you fap over did which is find a fucking purpose. If all you do is read and write and obsess over what you don't or can't have your world will become devoid of colour. Learn to love and meditate, these are both skills they take practice and time. If you consider reading, reflection or other activities mental or spiritual exercise consider meditation stretching and massage. Unromantic love is better than romantic love. Romantic sex is better than unromantic sex. The only truths that matter have been said countless times for millenia for those willing listen. Your egos are fragile and your strengths will decay so abandon them as you need or can. Shed your shackles to be free and happy everywhere you go. The only truths that matter have been said countless times for millenia for those willing listen and remember.

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.

Quiet now! Here we have our elusive subject – the mid-twentysomething male Caucasian writer, tippity-tapping away at that precious keyboard, nestled snugly in his natural habitat: the cozy, bed-and-bathroom apartment bought with his parents’ very own money. Watch his glazed eyes flick over the computer screen, carefully belaboring each successive word, mouthing the sentiment back to himself while a single, revelatory thought clicks for the thousandth time in his life:

Oh my god, he shouts, or perhaps vaguely acknowledges: “I’m a hack!”

Can people stop with this stupid fucking quote, people who use the colloquial meaning of fascism where its akin to authoritarianism need to read a book.

>antifa, a communist organization, is the same thing as the fascists hur durr

I can feel myself falling for the Ligotti/Negarestani/Land "philosophical horror" meme. This happens every so often, where I'll become fascinated by an out-of-the-ordinary concept or writer and track down multiple texts related to it - I've currently got Phyl Undhu and Cyclonopedia queued up to read, along with a book of criticism called Neoreaction a Basilisk. At least I've learned to use libgen rather than actually buy physical books that clutter up the house once the fascination period has passed; the amount of stuff about stage magic I have in my storage room is ridiculous.

I occasionally pop over to Marxpost and rake in butthurt (you)s. Most of their content is too repetitive to be worth engaging with though.

I keep having ideas for a long My Little Pony fanfic. I've already written two long MLP fanfics, one of them being a sequel to the first one. I swore I'd give up fanfiction after the second long one, but I've been bitten with an idea for a sequel to the sequel that I can't shake.

Get extended-release variants of adderall/ritalin and it's really not that bad. You still experience peaks and crashes though, just not as crazy as the immediate release stuff.

Yes: masturbating at the start of the day to something that would not bring you shame (id est, the waifu) is pure. What is impure is to seek out material to arouse yourself with, or to succumb to the desire to masturbate after inadvertently encountering something arousing. The subject matter and the circumstances are what, to me, can make masturbation impure. To enjoy the fruits of a monogamous relationship in your head is wholly pure.

I would like to add two things. Firstly, waifu is only a term that I have adopted; I'm not referring to an anime character. What has actually happened could more aptly be described as falling in love with a fantastic projection of your anima. I say that because I fell in love with an entity comforting a projection of myself in a dream nine months ago, and have, since then, devoted my life to sustaining that projection of myself, the entity it (and I) fell in love with, and their world. The second thing, though I assume that this is somewhat less necessary after having written the first note, is that my definition of pure is founded upon dedication to those beings that I have created - though that is not to say that they do not possess agency or that they are not now and will not remain independent when I die, as they are, to an extent, me - and not on divine decree. As far as I know, this is relevant only to my own superstition.

>>9462009
Write them out of you or they'll eat your insides

ff

Why did they insult me? I do not believe what I said deserved scorn. I never insulted them. I never insult anyone. And if my ideas are wrong, how does that equate the need for them to berate me? I understand it is a tough world, and you need a thick skin to get by, but why must they hurt me? Why do they feel it necessary to hurt me? They could have just disagreed and left it at that. Are they hurting, too? Were they projecting onto me, or am I projecting onto them now? True discussion did not result from it. Nothing did.

The main reason I'm writing music now instead of going to university is because I fell in love with someone and I want to meet her again. Maybe we can write a few songs together or maybe I'll join her band.

I also lost my mind a few times the past year and it's honestly exhilarating. Since there's a good chance this is simulated I think acid is some kind of easter-egg, and we aren't humans we're just massive geometric higher dimensional minds that pretend to be human. Don't do drugs.

>>9461895
best get it out of the way, then

I banged a girl I had a massive crush on while I was in 8th grade today and it was pretty good but I think she wants a relationship and like, there's nothing wrong with her or anything and for a while now I've wanted to be in a relationship with her, but now I've completely lost interest and I feel really bad about it because this is kinda how things turned out with the last two girls I was into and I think I might have developed some commitment issues or some shit. I dunno, I feel guilty for feeling the way I do.

I've been waiting for you love, but now I get it, there is no you.

Just had a police interrogation about some drugs. It was extremely bureaucratic and boring and the guy made no attempt whatsoever to make me confess. Today I've drank two bottles of wine which is way too much. It's only 4pm but I'm probably going to have a hangover anyway. Tomorrow I have to feed some snakes - I'm worried they'll run away / bite me. I'm snorting bupropion to combat the drunkenness. Mother is going to be so disappointed.

You suppose bill is happy? Selling your soul for a few shekels. I mean I get it. But I can't image how much pain he feels everyday. His only solace found at the bottom of a bottle. Fruitlessly chasing away the crippling dread that he might have to face the man he has become. All his hopes and aspirations traded for mild comfort and fleeting fame.

Your self-worth is linked to your heritage because you have performed little of value on your own and cannot accept that as a matter of fact.

I've had my first existential crisis in front of my girlfriend of four years, I was sobbing mess on the floor but she was so comforting to me. But I have this feeling of dread like she realises im not the put together person that I fool everyone into thinking I am. This time this crisis has taken longer to recover from even my friends notice, ask if I'm ok. To many people rely on me, I have to finish my masters and I've made myself too indisposable in my department in the past few years because I want to feel wanted. I'm stable now but I'm afraid I'm going to break again and there will be too many people around and they'll want to lock me up for being crazy, I just want to live my life, I don't want to be strapped to a bed, that'll just make it worse and I spend my day screaming with my mind lost. I have a good mind, I love the life of academia but how can I feel safe. I've become agoraphobic, I cant even eat without feeling sick and wanting to go home and even there the lines start to become blurred. I'm not crazy, I'm not crazy, I'm sane, I just don't want to feel this fear.

>>9465458
Your gf definitely lost all respect for you as a man. Never cry in front of a woman.

man that new republican health care bill looks real shitty

I spent $20 to buy a book on amazon and the set release date is 5/9/17, so I had to pay for 2 day shipping and it's set to ship tomorrow. What are the chances it gets here before then? I know amazon sometimes delivers games before they're released, but I rarely use the service.

Cry harder, faggot. It's better in every way than Obamacare.

>>9465515
Obamacare was destined to fail, one way or the other. Now when leftists try on health care again they'll realize that a market-friendly solution is a waste of time, since markets will hate government intrusion in their marketplace no matter what. Hopefully they will respond by going full government health care, and we'll get socialized medicine like the British.

>>9458048
I fucking wish.

>>9465531
last time i preordered a book the release date was pushed back at the last minute so i cancelled it and pirated the pdf, fuck 'em

>>9465561
obamacare sucked but this is shit is only better in one way, worse in every other possible way

>>9465850
Well the global release date for book stores was 5/9. Comic shops got it early on 5/3, but since the fan following for this is basically limited to 4chan, i'm the only one willing to buy a copy of the novel and scan it. Outside of us, there's the usual tumblr crowd, but they're a bunch of idiots per usual and won't share even if they had a copy.

I would have bought it myself in town but it's like a 45 minute drive and the LCS didn't carry it for being a "off brand publisher" book. So fuck it, I'd rather get it delivered.

>>9465888
i feel u, i was just pissed that i preordered some shit and on the supposed release date they push it back another month, yet the ebook version is all over the fucking net so obviously the book is finished and some shitty middle manager somewhere just fucked up getting it printed and distributed so i was like sorry but you deserve to lose a sale for that, too many people out of work to let an incompetent get away with it

what is the point of that /bant/ board? i browsed it and it was just a mix of /pol/ and really bland sfw /b/ threads

I don't think there is any necessarily wring in the message he was trying to deliver to the world (at the end of the day it is still a very strong academic position), what I really can't stand is how fucking lame that bit was.
I don't care for his show, nor I have ever cared for his career, but that 3 minutes song was just too actively ugly for me to ignore it: what the fuck were they thinking? What mind can be chwnged with such a worthless song and such a insignificant sense of humour? Whoever may have either supported or been neutral towards this stance will just find that video unbearable, and the people who were against it in the first place will just take it as a proof of the "fact" that LGBTQ+ progressive are retarded.
There was a moment in that video, before the hook line (can't google it at the moment, but I'm pretty sure you guys know what I'm talking about), in which you can see Bill focusing immensely on what the singer is singing, and when she say "my sex junk" he starts dancing just like a teenager would start dancing in a club when the bass drops. That moment was a fucking attack on national taste, I honestly can't think about it for more than 2 seconds without ending up feeling immense disgust. It's one of the worst things I've seen in my life, period.

I don't get it, what it was to be gained from it? It's so ugly, stupid and pathetic that I can't help myself but think that it is a false flag: Bill Nye fucking hates trans people and just wanted to demolish the cause from the inside. There is no way he and his team lack THAT much self-awareness.

read the thread title, it's about writing about yourself. Not writing about your thoughts on writing, unless you are currently thinking a lot about writing.

I'm never going to experience being a child again. As I get older this realization disturbs me more and more.

>>9466131
yes you will, just wait till you hit your 80s, you won't be able to go anywhere without peeing your pants, you'll need people to make your meals for you, and you're brain will be to decayed to understand anything complex, basically you get to sit around the couch and watch cartoons all day, well i mean you do that now, but in your 80s you'll be able to do it and not feel like a jackass

I'm at odds with myself.
I've begun to take a more active role in my life. I'm more confident, outgoing, and have begun taking more risks. However, i'm only spurned to do this for the sake of others. I don't talk to girls with confidence because I am confident, i do it because I know they desire a man with a backbone. My true self, the meek invertebrate that I am, is tearing me to shreds from the inside out. Every charming phrase I spew leads to hours of inner turmoil, constantly echoing the phrase "You can't do it, We can't do it, I can't do it." And with each success I achieve, that poison in my gut only burns hotter. I'm headed for my biggest failure yet, and I don't know how to stop it. Even if I did, i fear the time to prevent it has long since passed.

there was some article I read where the main reason men want to be women is for this motive entirely. They see how much pleasure is gotten out of having a pussy and in turn through porn addiction come to the conclusion that they need one. In order to continue masturbating of course. Wanting to get fucked as a guy is another question completely.

It's only been 2 weeks since she left me, after 2 1/2 years of love I feel I'm doing pretty well, I can get out of bed, take a shower, even shitpost and play vidya. I catch myself doing weird things to try and feel comfortable, last week I asked if I could fold pizza boxes at the shop I used to work at while I waited for my order, they said no. I remember debating calling in sick there once because she really wanted to be with me, I should have, I'd have given a shift up for a night with her, I'd give anything to take her back... I don't even know if that's true.. I don't even know if I want her back, she hurt me so back all I could think to do was drink until I couldn't think of how much it hurt, don't do what I did, I spent that night in the hospital on an IV. It hurts seeing her being almost cheery despite what happened, but I'm happy she's happy. That's a sickening train of thought, to be happy she's happy I'm gone, to be happy she's happy if she were in another man's arms, would I be happy if another man comforted her like I did? My jealousy makes me feel sick, the girl I thought would raise my children, the girl that whispered 'mine' when she hugged me, the girl that I thought would be the one, doing that with someone else. Suddenly I regret getting out of bed today. I regret a lot of things. It's almost easier living in denial, thinking she'll come back, thinking of what I'll improve on so this doesn't happen again, but I know I'll have to face it eventually, she's gone, a few taps on her phone and she could have me blocked and I'd never see or hear from her again. I think back to the last real conversation we had before it fell apart, I asked about her most recent suicide attempt, she didn't want to talk about it, and she said she didn't want to say why because it would hurt me, could I really be so bad she'd try killing herself before trying to break up with me? I guess I'll never have a chance to ask that. How bad is it that I had to ask myself what would be worse for me; if she died, or if she broke up with me? Is every thought I type up just another example of why it wouldn't work? why it shouldn't work? why I deserve to not ruin anyone's life with my "love"? If someone thinks they love me should I not indulge their emotion to save them in the long run? Would she have been better in long run if she hadn't met me? Am I just a cancer? destined to be bombarded and shrivel up before being cut out of people's lives? What if I'm good for people in the short term but long run I'm no good and all my life is to become is a series of short relationships with noone to call mine for life?

>>9465281

That's the fucking point, I just can't believe it. Look at pic related, ancient Greek and modern day Greek. They were fucking shitskins!!??


I've been lied to my whole fucking life. /pol/ was wrong.

I feel stuck in my life with little chance of escape. I am a NEET. The girl that likes me wants me to get a job so I can at least not be poor with no prospects which is understandable. I am putting applications out but I live in a pretty small town where all the jobs are in the city over and i have no license. Can't get one without insurance (mandatory in my state), which I can't get without money.

I don't mind working but I don't want to be exploited, you know? I want to have my own business where I work and reap what I sow instead of someone else getting rich off me. I don't even want to be rich. I just want enough to live in our capitalist shitciety.

I don't know what to do.

>>9466472
I was being honest, I genuinely hope that you'll kick your addiction out.
Generallt I sincerely wish for the well-being of all my fellow /lit/izens

>>9467039
Don't become a wageslave for romantic reasons, do it only if it's either a necessity or if you want to save money for future plans (you will be able to do it only if someone else is caring after your accomodation and food).
It's not worth it: all the talks you've heard about the dignity of working a modest job are either propaganda or the result of people believing in self-help courses/books.

If you can avoid working and if you don't have to really save money for the future, then don't do it.

But please, stop being a NEET: if you can do nothing all day long, at the very least pick a craft, or do some soul searching in order to individuate a passion. You could truly become great ar something, don't waste your life on meaningless internet contents.

>>9467049

To be fair, I do need a job. I've been NEETing it up for almost a decade now since my friend stopped doing painting/sheetrocking which I actually enjoyed doing. I want an income, and it's not just for her.

I read a lot, try to do stuff that interests me (which I doubt will ever make any money), and think. I'm always trying to occupy my mind with something because if I don't I start dwelling on bad things and I hate that. I do yardwork or housework or blacksmithing (a hobby) or woodworking or anything I can, really. I took after my grandfather with the "jack of all trades" thing which is especially easy in the age of the Internet. It's too bad I'll never have a job like that because I think that while I enjoy a routine I wouldn't want to do the same thing every day for a vocation, if that makes sense.

>>9466222
trips get you some nice puss and a happy relationship to boot.

i'm happy that this latest story i started seems to be flowing. it doesn't matter if it's good or bad, i'm just happy that i've found an idea that i'm not struggling to write about. i'm glad to be having fun. now i just need to be sure that i actually finish writing it...

since ppl talking about neetness and shit...did u dudes see unemployment is supposedly at an ten year low at 4.4%, i call bullshit on that man, go on any chan, place is packed with unemployed mother fuckers with no prospects

>>9467327
ok here's the real truth:

>Though the official jobless rate dipped even lower, the labor participation rate fell slightly to 62.9 percent last month from 63 percent, a signal that workers who had been sidelined are not being drawn back into the labor market.

I can't really dispute this speculation, for I know virtually nothing about general unemployment, but I'm pretty sure that the 4chan userbase is not a good sample in this case: of all sites in which NEETs could gather 4chan seems to be the best one.

but i'm saying all these liberal fags who post in the nytimes comments or whatever are like "omg how could trump win? the obama economy is wonderful! the russians must have hacked the election!" are clearly not representative either...the fact that one of the highest traffic sites on the internet is filled with unemployed neets wasting away their lives, tells you something is wrong with the economy

>>9467720
My point is that 4chan's ideological and aesthetic foundations implies that most people whonwill come and stay here were NEETs in the first place.

It would be like me saying that there is a rampant drug problem because everyone I meet in raves is always high on something.
What you say might be true, I'm only disputing 4chan as a reliable demographic source.

>>9467811
but if everyone time you go a rave there are 30,000 people there, that's telling you something

>>9467818
Well, if there is only one rave costantly going on on planet Earth, it would be reasonable to think that I could always find there more than 30k drugged up people.
At the end of the day there are very few actual alternatives to 4chan, and all those imageboards are waaaay less active and populated than this one.

>>9466539
>>9467040
thanks bros

>>9467833
again, everyone was soooo sure that hillary would win, yet every time trump gave a speech (which was usually twice a day during the campaign) 30,000 people showed up, this is telling you something, sure you could say "but those 30,000 people at a trump rally are going to be mostly trump supporters so it's not a representative sample" well no shit my dude, i wasn't saying it was a representative sample, i was saying it's a sign that something is going on

>>9467910
In 2007 there were as many NEETs as there are today, at least when it comes to percentage. I'm sure that, had 4chan been opened 30 years ago, you would have reached the same conclusion.

What I'm telling you is: don't try to get an opinion on general unemployment by looking at the site in which autistic, outcast and misfits people go.

>but those 30,000 people at a trump rally are going to be mostly trump supporters so it's not a representative sample
This data by itself tells us nothing, it would be more relevant to know how many people showed up at his competitors' rallies, and then compare them. Regardless, it's not like Trump won by a large margin (especially when you aknowledge the fact that he won while being down on 3 millions votes less than HRC): you could have probably said that something was going on while looking at Bernie's and Hillary's rallies, and then expand the same line of thought to every major Democrat and Republican campaign of the last 150 years.

Examine your sources: from what I can see what you take as a "proof" can be used easily in cases that are opposites of the ones you're describing, making your theories way too volatile for you to drawn something out of it.
If you can derive any answer from a theory, maybe you should rework it extensively. This should apply to all walks of life.

Sorry for my shit English.

i just cleaned a shitstain off my toilet bowl with a massive coffee piss just like in that meme, a simple pleasure that women will never know, before you fags get your dick removed and become trannies think twice about the little things you'll miss

>>9467933
>Regardless, it's not like Trump won by a large margin

fake news, he fucking slaughtered her, he won every swing state, he flipped damn pennsylvania of all places, all of hillaries popular votes came from california, means nothing

but now i see why you are being such a tool about this, you are a partisan hack, ok fuck off

I put too much garlic on my steak.

>>9467949
>he fucking slaughtered her
She literally got 3m votes more than him.

>all of hillaries popular votes came from california, means nothing
The majority of the votes means nothing? At the very least it should tell us that not much is going on, and that the US electorate was polarized as usual, ending up, again, as usual, in a almost 50-50 result.

>but now i see why you are being such a tool about this, you are a partisan hack, ok fuck off

Nope, I have no horse in this race, and in my country there is no analogue candidate for either Trump or Clinton. I'm just looking at the facts here: if you have noticed I have not judged neither of the candidates.

>>9467977
>The majority of the votes means nothing?
it doesn't mean that much because the biggest cities on the coast are all liberal, 3 million votes isn't even half the population of nyc, who gives a shit, that's now how the election works anyways...the fact that she lost blue states like michigan and pennsylvania is a sign that she fucking sucked and no one liked her, most of the time republicans eek out a win by getting ohio and florida, trump took all the swing states, every single one, even blue leaning ones, it was total destruction, i hate republicans but the media lied their ass from start to finish on this campaign, it was not "close" at all

>>9468003
>it doesn't mean that much because the biggest cities on the coast are all liberal

Basically it does not mean much because the biggest cities voted for her?

>3 million votes isn't even half the population of nyc
The point here is that she got 3 milions MORE than him. That's not being destroyed.
She lost, but her loss was not that e,blematic, I'd say that Trump becoming the main republican candidate was a much more shocking event.

>i hate republicans but the media lied their ass from start to finish on this campaign, it was not "close" at all
By every possible criteria you can pick, it was an extremely close election: the fact that the popular vote ended up with a 48-52 result is a proof of that.

Hillary sucked, of course, but Trump's victory is often overstated, especially here on 4chan. It's not about Trump's victory being glorious, rather it's about Hillary's campaign being ridicolously weak.

This should tell us that not much is really going on in the US electorate, and that the final results were perfectly normal when compared to the general trends we can see in US elections.
Again, the shocking part is not that Hillary lost (a Democrat lost an election? Is it that shocking? It is supposed to happen half of the times), instead what is shocking here is the fact that Trump actually managed to become the Republican candidate in this election (which is perfectly understandable, since the other candidates were even this dysmal).
This is the unbelievable part in this story

Trump is a fucking retard. I would have rather had people vote for "crooked" Hillary than projecting Don. Both are bourgie pieces of shit though.

Wow, this guy has figured it out!

I'm sad that a valuable discussion got deleted on another board.
I know it will happen, since neither of us bumped the shit post thread.
Its sad really. I was on my way of using knowledge I gathered.
But hey,at least I have the HTML file saved so I can look back on it.
That's another added to the collection.

I knew it would happen, but I'm still sad.
Like an old family member. You know he/she is going to die, but when.
You wish he/she would die now,even though its immoral,just because you don't want to deal with the mental terror of "it can happen any time" You want ti to happen,so it wouldn't torment you.

The last part has a vague connection to the first
The third has even less.

I love lifting weights but since I started my scientific work has taken a hit. It just seems so unnecessary and pointless.

How come people are not trying out Growth Hormone to cure Tinnitus? Shouldn't it theoretically grow back the damaged cell hairs in the inner ear that cause the phantom sound to occur?


So little research, I don't understand.

I feel weird, I've been in Arequipa for over a month now and I'm no longer sure what I'm doing here or with my life in general. I feel pretty comfortable here, I'm learning Spanish, seeing a girl, going to the gym, reading and shit. My life back home was terrible so I don't want to return but I don't know where else to go and I think I've been here too long and want to see something new. I feel like I'll never be happy no matter how well things are going for me and that I'll never feel like I belong anywhere. I'm having an existential crisis in another country and feel like I'm stuck in this city until I can make some kind of satisfactory plan for the future.

wooo mysterious, must be some serious shit!

I'm going to do it. I'm going to get an agent, get all my novels and short stories published, and be recognized as a great writer. I'm going to achieve my dream.

I've been thinking about how a lot of my milquetoast neoliberalism is a mixture of the urge not to be ungrateful and a "be careful what you wish for" mentality; if I were to casually dismiss large chunks of modernity as unnecessary bullshit I'd expect nature to walk in and go "looks like we've got a real Bear Grylls on our hands, well how'd you like drinking your own piss?"

More seriously, cliche as it sounds it seems like a lot of politics is coming from a Fight Club mentality of crashing the facade of modern society and starting anew in a scaled-down system of closer human contact; it seems a lot of /pol/ thinks they'll finally find happiness and meaning if everything went full Kaczynski and they became peasants, and honestly the same goes for /lit/.

Sorry for being shit at serious-posting.

Please RYM, don't die.

He's living out the working class fantasy version of the high life. His manners and opinions have much more in common with working people than with the cosmopolitan billionaire elite. I'm not sure, but I think they think of him as a joke, as a crass idiot from Queens who somehow lucked his way into money.

I don't think they're laughing so much anymore though.

underrated post

>>9456833

I really don't know what I want to do in life, I have so many interests. I love movies, I love music, I love literature. I think I could go into any one of these creative endeavors but I realize you can only truly attempt to be proficient at one. Why is it so hard to decide things? I have very definite ideas in my head for things, but then I found out executing them in the real world is a daunting task. My life has been a interesting experience so far, in terms of all the things that I have thought up in my head, so many weird aesthetics and almost unexplainable things. Not really unexplainable but they are so weird and esoteric that explaining them wouldn't do it justice. I wish I could peer into your guys minds and see just how different or similar human brains work on a aesthetic level. I think of abandoned malls, of that one creepy mario kart 64 level on the docks, of forests, of grand castles, of blinding purple/blue light emanating from a lighthouse, of factories, of depressing grey shopping centers stuck in the 90s out in a desert town, now you see these things in themselves don't mean much to you, but they can mean so many different modes of thought for me, but I just can't explain.

I think the key to maintaining a healthy artistic brain is to always hold dear to the way you felt about life when you were a child. I think children aren't widdled away by life, and the mysteriousness of everything creates an environment for the mind to roam to areas to you probably don't remember you were capable of now that you have grown up.

I hope we can all live decent lives, but I think a sad truth is that "real" creative people (not the fake hipster kind you see in colleges and apple commercials) don't belong in American society, we are basically total outcasts. It's hard to find a job that doesn't totally demolish any piece of soul you once had. I think hard physical labor destroys who you are, I don't believe in the struggle creates better art myth. I have worked very tough manual labor for 2 years in a row, and I remember it being like tying a rope around my soul and squeezing harder and harder. By the end I was so squeezed and constricted that I almost was too hardened into a stone person. I think becoming a stone person is what people want, they don't want people who have the desire to be loose and free, to let their emotions take them on a journey. I think if you have to work it's best to find a job that allows you to day dream as much as possible, find any way to beat the system.

>>9470021
I've got a lot of bitterness inside me, but in the end I still love her and want to know she has the best life she can. It just blows that to get that she doesn't need me

I keep reading and reading but I still don't understand. When does it all click?

I am in love with a woman who is taken. She does not think of me, but I think of her. It has become a drain, interfering with my studies and dulling my thought. I cannot stop engaging in the hedonistic folly of social living, I am afraid to be alone. I scurry about looking for someone to give me attention, as I feel uncomfortable in the quiet of myself. I am no longer depressed, but only because I know she would not love me if I was. I am creating dramatics from whole cloth, and I am in a constant state of uprooted falling. This is all so self-preprtuatingly droll, but I just can't stop indulging.

>>9470503
You are one supercilious motherfucker.
>I cannot stop engaging in the hedonistic folly of social living
Humans are literally the most enjoyable thing. If I had a human to interact with I would be doing that instead of shitposting in a masturbatory thread on /lit/.

>tfw no muse
I want to ask her out, but I'm a coward and ugly

>>9470510
It is narsassistic, but it's from a place of self loathing. Also I would not agree that humans are the most 'fun' things. Really socializing is a lot of pressure if you are up in the air 'authenticity'-wise.

>>9470528

What's eating you?

>>9470543
In the metaphorical sense of going for a walk, meaning "get out into the world and do something enjoyable and productive," go for a walk.

It bothers me to see individuals who actually have opportunities to connect with people not do so because I used to be one such individual, and I lost most of my friends because of my self-pitying bullshit. Regret and fear eat the soul.

>>9470559
I do those things, I have a good group of friends. They are lovely people. It just doesn't solve anything is what I'm saying.

Are you isolated now?

>>9470569
It will, or you've got other psychological issues to be resolved in therapy outside of wrote social anxiety.

all i care about is losing my viriginity to this dumb slut who is 3 years younger than me and i know that once i nut i will feel sad and without purpose

Im about to graduate high school and im overwhelmed with emotions of failure. I have episodes where I start to feel empty as if the world is pushing down on me. I start crying thinking i will end up a lonely loser with nothing. I feel no connection with people. Im scared to trust others because of my fear of them trying to use or hurt me. I sometimes hope for a random heart attack so I can finally have relief. I dont know what to do but i always keep inside.

I told my therapist about brapposting and now I have insomnia because the cringeworthiness of the memory gives me anxiety.

>>9470652
how did that come up?

>>9456833
I wish I wasn't a fucking autist.

>>9461003
Or you have OCD.

What rings clarion is the need for congruity on this vexing row. Whilst my own theorem is that each man must arrive at his own denouement that lies atop the apex of the mount of individual discovery that he must clamber atop; sometimes roughly and others smooth, to simply heed every Crier higher on the path calling "Turn away, ere you go down the wrong path" or "come hither, 'tis this way" is an abandonment of one's duty to seek truth undissembled. Yet, by pronouncing such an averment on this resource, would I not be violating my own creed? Shall I become the Crier, now braying "turn from all voices, turn from a chorus of voices; examine the path itself"? No -- I shall catalogue the proclamations of others, and in so doing, annotate the path rather than add another voice to the cacophony.

I just farted in the exact beginning note of that "Blurred Lines" pop song

The one that repeats three times before he says "everybody get up"

The hatred of others trickles slowly like slime into the minds of citizens and binds them, grinds them, lines them up into an army of heartless 'bots that gloat and fuck and rob democracy of authority, throwing the blame and shame of corrupt political game into the empty, scarred hands of bands of humans who seek nothing but a better living.

Attempts to recreate the fart have not succeeded

marcus aurelius said that rigidity and tenseness of the soul and body are the hallmarks of death, that being loose and soft, metaphorically speaking, is what we should strive for. I hear you on the physical labor, it's pretty depressing. it pays well, and, look at dostoyevsky. it's also noble compared to the sloth that is the modern white collar worker. if what you do isnt what you love, then something isnt right. that's what i believe at least.
