You clearly want to be something more. If you have a relationship with her currently you're always gonna have that nagging feeling at the back of your head, robbing you of any sort of geniune interaction. The worst thing that can happen is she tells you she isn't interested, and then you can move on if she does so.

But chances are she'll gladly hang out with you if you ask. You gotta go for it. I believe in you.

Just like soil identifies is rich-ness when one tries to garden, talent is something which remains occulted until it’s tender tries to foster. A mason builds a house out of scratch, but a gardener grows what is already there waiting in wait before he knows it.

Just don't care if you fail. You will never get any one woman you ask out or take out on a date, but you will get a reasonable % of every 100 women you ask.

Don't obsess over specific women. Even if you feel a connection with them. You can't guarantee anything. Also, most women are piglike mental retard whores and your initial feelings for them will be mistaken anyway, so even when things go well you will regret that they did. Always be looking for something decent, never take failure or rejection to mean something about you (except obviously if you're being creepy or aggressive or getting yourself a bad reputation with gossipy thots or something)

i'd agree with you as long as that authors expresses something he feels, say: the longing for something you've never experienced (the virgin diaries) – but a virgin who writes about sex? a virgin cannot write about sex, only about the fantasy of having sex or images and stories about sex he has heard or seen; very different things from sex itself. he can write truthfully about what he imagines sex to be, but not about sex itself – and if he tries, as a virgin, to write as if he knows about sex, as if he has experienced sex – that's when i'll call him a liar and a fraud and don't believe for a second that anything he writes on this topic (sex itself) is worthwhile.

for the samurai it is not important to justify the warrior's way by arguments, but simply to go the way. it does not matter whether the way is true or false, good or bad, ugly or beautiful, whether the masses, whether the buddha cheers or boos – a samurai is measured only by whether he follows the way. if the samurai-stuff is too cringe for you, then extract the pure doctrine: choose a way and follow it. as long as you follow the way, the way is your judgement. if truth blocks your path, close your eyes. if falsety opens the gate, lie. there is no good or bad, only the rule of the way. no one can command you to stop, neither god nor the devil. how do you choose a way? you are chosen. how far will you go? as far as fate will take you.

You’re just trying to escape from the pressures placed upon you wether internal or external. Your goals aren’t real goals it’s a shitty vacation that would be nice for a week before you’re bored. It seems your problem is more that your directionless and/or depressed. You need some sort of goal or aspiration in life sitting stagnant is akin to going backwards or drowning, you can’t tread water in this life. At least not without drugs or a plethora of other hedonistic distractions. But if that’s your thing go for it but be honest about it.
I’m speaking from experience early last year I didn’t work for a month while keeping my (reasonable) salary going I played vidya and browsed the web and read, some drugs here and there, and had a blast for two weeks until reality settled in. Than I was gazing into the void and meaninglessness of it all and chose a path, I started learning shit. I started learning about anything and everything until I found something that I liked and now that’s where I aim and strive to better myself not for my own sake (that’s a by product) but for the sake of my family, friends, and community around me. I didn’t wanna be a leech on society or another hedonistic or materialistic person because that simply wasn’t my character.

I'm really inspired by this Russian band called Buerak because it's literally just 2 guys and their creativity is the best, from what i know they use a lot of pedals and drum machine and so i want to follow in their footsteps.

it's best to have a good reason. there are three reasons to start a band: 1. you want to create music; 2. you want something to do with your friends; 3. you want women. All of these are in line with what having a band can achieve. If you want either of these then they can be reason enough to have a band.

if you want to be a good musician the thing you really must incorporate into your practice is practicing playing by ear
t. did not do this and basically wasted years

learn scales and start breaking down music according to scale. do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do comes to 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 in regular parlance. in this system twinkle twinkle little star comes to 1-1-5-5-6-6-5 4-4-3-3-2-2-1

eventually you will become an ear savant. connect your scale thinking with your fingers when you play. this is how you git good.

I don't know. maybe I'm being autistic anon, it's just I played guitar for like 13 years before I realized why I kept messing up my solos. I didn't play super ambitiously but still, there was a gaping hole in my skillset and it really seems ot me like it is what elevates it. When you learn it it feels artificial but when it's firm in you it becomes your freedom. I think.

One thing I can say is there is absolutely no shame in doing covers. I think very many musicians became what they are by copying others first, and then finding a style of their own that incorporated what they learned.

I'm dealing with a break up and it occurred to me: nothing in life that truly maters has a factual answer.

Should I end it on an ugly, vindictive note? There is an emotional payoff? Or should I be conciliatory and end it amicably? This latter option lacks the visceral satisfaction of vengeance, but anger fades and it would light all the good memories we had on fire, burning them away forever. Whereas if I end it kindly those memories are preserved.

No sort of reasoning is applicable here, but neither do emotions provide clear insight into the obvious choice. I can't "go with my gut." Because I'm like a cow here, my gut has several compartments. There's something incredibly exhausting about it all.

>You could just start talking to her as “the girl in the library” then move onto hanging out as friends and eventually ask her out on a date.

I would really caution against this and I say this from a place of kindness. The longer you put off 'the question' the harder and harder it becomes and the more torturous the platonic relationship will get. It can feel like a massive risk losing a friendship you genuinely appreciate, but the fact is that if you're romantically interested then the friendship isn't actually sincere - at least on your end. The longer you wait, the bigger a deal the question becomes. If you ask early, you can still play it casual - like an inoffensive random thought like "hey, we get along, maybe it'd be cool if we went on a date" as opposed to "hey, I've been talking to you for months (eventually maybe years) while hiding my lust for you, but only now have I built up the courage and by having waited so long I am now ruining what you thought was an innocent platonic friendship" which is way worse. Again I don't mean this in a mean way but unfortunately speaking from experience.

phenomena are defined by relative comparison to one another. so the phenomena define one another.
words are either defined by words or relate to phenomena.
this system never bottoms out. there is no first definer. A is only A because of B, but B is only B because of A. everything defines everything. therefore in some sense nothing is other or less than the whole. And no thing is.

First, doing things after work has a strange energy to them that, if done over a period of time, makes you MORE productive than if you only had the time to do the thing you want.

Second, the reason to half ass do something is that it is more than if you didn't do it at all. If I'm giving 60% for an hour every day and you give nothing all week except for saturday for a few hours at 100%, I've totaled more work than you have. I've thought about the thing more than you have. I've slept on what I've done more than you have.

Have 0 friends. Never did in high school either. Faded in the backdrop. A sloth sitting on his branch slyly watching the hominids sling their shit. A zoologist observing: that small unnoticed inflexion, a smirk unseen, that quick glance of excremental revulsion, and the resigned wrinkled face of the substitute teacher directed downwards to his crossword--the whole circus performance. I witness it all.

I--this Unit which never became. I the robot whose only knowledge of being human comes from sitcoms and internet threads.

Faces writhing in ecstacy, delight, terror ... they will return and stare and stare listlessly terrified by the thought that their Eyes are not their own.

Zero. Set category= 0 attachment. Drifting forward--not a self, not a character, not anything. Just a revolving set of orientations and compulsions wrapped around a meat stick.

Occasionally a new set of eyes--some shifty, some bulbous and bulging--try and penetrate into my own. I tell them my number--the letters that signify me. And hope in my heart of hearts to be a PERFORMER to be one of those Big Apes with the Big white smiles and perfect jawline--a hearty laugh, the perfect anecdote--so that I might too earn the big boy points.

Decades, staring at the same empty space. The same scrolling wheel.

I see your point. Some activities might make you more productive, energetic, and so on. But that's not necessarily. If there happens to be an overlap between what you're doing for work and what you wish to do afterwards, if they draw from the same pool of resources, it's not like a muscle that twice as strong from double the use but a well that dries up twice as fast.

And I see your point about half-assing. But there are certain pursuits, creative, literary pursuits such as I'm alluding to, which that if done mediocrely and falteringly are best not done at all. Nobody does open heart surgery half assed, and while they aren't the same, it's the same principle.

The best argument for that is that by choosing to do I awaken potentials that my self-limiting "why bother" beliefs prevented me from realizing.

It was going to be my destiny. I had been told by my family I was destined to be something special. To do something great. For years I thought this meant I was going to find the cure to cancer, or invent something fantastical, or maybe even help get someone locally elected. But once I was told the truth, I knew what I had to do. The fact of the matter is that the County Commissioner was abducting children and drinking their blood to stay roughly forty five years old. He was balding, and it looked like his genetics weren't too good, but for some reason he's been forty five years old for the past five decades. He kept getting elected. I wasn't sure how exactly, until I started reading about adrenochrome that I realized the reason his election kick off parties were normally held at the chuck e cheese. It all fell into place. I couldn't prove it though, so the only thing I knew I could do was assassinate him at the top of the hour when chucke comes out to sing. No one will hear the blade enter his body when the show starts, and I know no one will check on him in his chair for a while, so I could slip out. He's a known alcoholic, and a few light beers at the children's play place doesn't seem too far fetched. Everything is falling into place. I know I may be arrested. I'm ready for that too. For I will become the Otoya Yamaguchi, and death is only the beginning.

Your beliefs will be challenged or you will challenge them yourself and they will crumble. In my case, I was a really pious and active catholic discerning the monastic life until the Church made me lose my faith. I have then been at my lowest for more than a year and very nearly killed myself. But, through experiences and introspection I emerged stronger and, to put it simply, I became a man. In fewer words, the people in this phase, no matter their age, need to live and grow up.

I've been watching the news feeds about crime in my city. On a regular, now daily basis, I read about the random assaults on the streets, the unprovoked attacks, the shootings. Not even muggings half the time, just random acts of violence. Then you hear these politicians, these disgusting, smal,l cowardly little people, downplay the idea that it is not because of relaxed policing due to BLM but because of "trying economic times." Trying economic times does not cause someone to punch an Asian on the street without even touching their wallet. Trying times does not cause someone to stab various homeless people on the trains. Trying times does not cause an epidemic of suckerpunches and subway rail shoves with absolutely no monetary gain involved. Doom these people. The eternal, irrevocable, ultimate, indelible truth is that heavy handed policing is the best solution to crime, the best means to keep violently minded cretins from doing the one thing they are capable of doing--harm--from doing it. And it has been so since the day that the first caveman picked up a club, and saw that the other one was going to get up to no good with it. There is such a thing a social refuse, and police are the garbage collectors. You are delusional if you doubt that for one minute. You are incapable of fathoming how small the mind of some are, how thin their cerebral cortexes, how inflamed their amygdalae, how barely a twinkle of consciousness sparks in it save for those of lust, anger, and madness and resentment, dimmed all by the ugliest sort of stupidity. Call me a nazi. I'm not, but if I'm a nazi then you condone this sort of crime, because what I propose is the one and only time tested, culturally-invariant, fool proof solution to it.

You don't need heavy handed policing when the base stock of people is fundamentally good. Look up "high trust" vs "low trust" societies.

It's always funny to me to see Northern Europeans scratching their heads over why their prison system, which is purely rehabilitation based and treats a prison sentence like a time-out in an Ikea-furnished apartment, can't handle the psychotic murderous rapists they're importing by the boatload. I never imagined western cognitive dissonance could go on this long, but with every passing year we just scream louder that it's STRUCTURAL FACTORS.. UHH, UHH, IT'S.. ECONOMIC FACTORS... CRIME IS CORRELATED WITH POVERTY!!!

Anyone else disturbed by how subtly callous society is toward men? Would the world we live in even exist if not for their sacrifice? Our homes, power, sanitation, firefighting, policing, transportation -- all the most essential components of the system hinge upon the sweat and risk of men.
And our modern world is a grave of men. Millions, barely out of adolescence, ground up in service to a future that has forgotten them. The Y chromosome is a tragedy. The cruelest pressures had to be exerted on countless young men, condemning them to loneliness and early death, so as to forge the Y responsible for the absolute highs and lows of the human race.

Why does a sheep has such big titties? Was she supposed to be a satyress but the Japanese weren't too fond of sexualizing her?
I kind of want a R18 Watame where she has the same cute voice but is horny as heck.
Also I want to smell her pheromones coming from her armpits very badly.

The pendulum has swung so far in the direction of social constructivism that any biological/genetic explanation for human behavior is discarded as scientific racism. It's a shame because race is a social construct to some extent but you need to balance your understanding with biological studies on race, and there is scant modern research so everything we have to rely on tends to be at least half a century old.

Last person to prominently venture back into this territory was Charles Murray and look at how he became a pariah in the academic world. Who would want to risk their career and reputation on something like this in 2021?

it is psuedoscience for a number of reasons, but that doesn't mean you can't find value in it. The main reason it's interesting is also the main reason it's pseudoscience, which is that the theory it's based on is non-empirical and non-falsifiable and doesn't map onto any models considered valid in modern neuroscience or psychology. It's based on some dude thinking of cool shit in his comfy chair (and later two women who liked the ideas and formalized it and renamed it), and the ideas are genuinely interesting.

Tests that are valid (as in, score within an acceptable range of psychometric validity) are generally atheoritical, which is sometimes used as a criticism but really just means that at this early stage with personality psychology being so soft, it's best to rely on pure stats and keep the labels and descriptions of the constructs you're actually measuring arbitrary and vague.

Pretty simple brother: Cut junk foods, avoid saturated fats and oils etc. Cut anything that is obviously sugary - e.g. soft drinks, chocolates etc. Sugar is pretty hard to avoid in general, but you can at least cut down on the obvious stuff. Doing this helped clear up my skin after dealing with shit skin for many years of adulthood.

If you're the type of person who craves soft drink out of habit, replace it with cold water or tea. I replaced alcohol at nights with herbal teas and it really helps because it fulfils the habitual urge of having something in your hand to sip on.

If you don't know what to eat other than shit foods then learn how to make good meals from basic ingredients like chicken, rice, and veggies. Stir fries are the easiest for a noob.

It's full of men who are dumb, insecure, and cowardly. They obviously don't want to be this way, but then they fall for the self-improvement meme, and instead of changing from within, they outsource this change to lifting weights. I find this particularly sad, because I actually enjoy physical exercise, and there are many reasons on why you should waste your time in it. And sure, you could say, "getting /fit/ will help with your self-esteem", which I will admit it can happen, but it's still just outsourcing your fundamental issues.

I've never train hopped before, but I've been in contact with a few local guys who do it often and got good tips. I really wanna get the feeling of being out there, alone.

Yeah, I can do that. I just don’t really know how to go about it. I thought the job I’m in now would be an easy “who cares” job but it’s not. The only labor job I had was working 12+ hour days often. I’m not sure what I should be trying to do and my degree (economics) only really lends itself to corporate go getter hustler jobs I think.

My alternative is to try to rely on parents. My parents are divorced and each have their own home. I’m not particularly close with either of them but I’m certain they’d let me live in their house for a time and my mother might even offer me a job at her office. I just don’t know how I feel about that given my age and some other factors.

Is that not specific enough? You feel as though you are naturally one way but you’ve lived in a way which is counterproductive, or even an impediment to that.
