Back in high school, I remember speaking to a girl that was so nice, I thought she was interested in me romantically. After a bit of time, though, I realized she spoke to everyone that way. It got me thinking: Are some people just naturally like that? If not, would it be wrong to aspire to become more like that? The initial reaction is, "Of course not", but here's where it gets tricky. On the surface, one might appear to be Christ himself born anew, yet act that way for selfish and egotistical purposes. A kind disposition is predicated on kind sentiment; Otherwise, it's dishonest. Buddhists draw clear distinctions between the two modes, and the proper one is distinguished by complete freedom from greed, anger, and fear, with a higher karmic reward in turn.

To become kind, then, isn't to match the image of a friendly and kind person, but to cultivate kind feelings and make the right action with the right intent. When this becomes a habit and defines your approach toward life, then you will appear kind without any effort, and perhaps without even realizing it. That is what it means to be selfless.

Borrowing from Churchill, capitalism is the worst economic system except for all the others. I think we will move beyond capitalism some day but to a form that hasn't been invented yet.

Here are my 5 unskillful states of mind. If I eliminate these there will be nothing stopping me.


1. Sluggish boredom. The ordinary is not unbearable but only a thing to get through. Bus rides staring out the grey sky, with not a thought of inspiration or hope for the future. Not pessimism because a pessimist sees the world with bleakness. I see nothing but the void, empty of hopelessness and cheerful hopefulness.

2. Fearful and anxious. Fear of not any physical harm but of looking stupid in public. Anxious and impatient. The eternal tapping foot. Wasting energy by dedicating a lot of mental power in processing what I think people think of me. Constantly evaluating and being self conscious, afraid of looking stupid.

3. Anxious egotism. Anxious over trying to look and act as good as possible. Trying to impress others but without trying to directly talk to or make my intentions clear. End up looking stuck up. Cannot sit still, still impatient. Confidence under the guise of false superiority. Easily diverges into Fearful anxious when confidence/delusions wanes.

5. Neediness. Desperation and loneliness. Mind-reading and predicting the worse judgement of others. Walking alone and not being confident. Thinking that others are judging because I don't have a friend or a partner, this exemplifies being needy. Wanting approval from others. Wanting to please others which is driven instead of having the intent of sharing/spreading well-being.

I know what to do. These are all mental sufferings that I have created. And I will destroy them. I will not go to a psychiatrist nor take a damn pill. The reason being is whatever I create and think, I can easily uncreate and unthink.

" Phenomena are preceded by the heart, ruled by the heart, made of the heart. If you speak or act with a corrupted heart, then suffering follows you — as the wheel of the cart, the track of the ox that pulls it. "

You really think everyone should come up with their own economic theory? Most people will never be experts. I never claimed to be one. I'd be a fool not to look into the ideas of others. I'm not even a Churchill fan, btw, it was just a relevant quote.

>1
Thuggish freedom. The ultra-ordinary must once again become musical and mystical. Bus rides staring out at the grey big faceless bay, with the spiralization of wonder and sincere sunder drifting me back to aspiration for the sake of reestablishing that I see beauty.

There was once a time where I was carefree, and did not care at all what people thought of me. I was uglier, fatter, ruder, and intentionally tried to dispel all social expectation of deceny and question and pointed out everything that make us act the way we do in society (like Larry David, without the bald head).

If my younger self saw me as a separate person in the street, acting the way I do, he would laugh at me and call me a pussy. Then I would feight confidence but he will see right through it, just as a mere defensive position to a stranger's opinions.

When I was younger, I talked to more people. I challenged them and remembered their names effortlessly. But as time went on, the box that society created for me, the one that I would have stepped on as a child, I voluntarily step in and limit myself. My fear of societies opinion of me grew stronger. I began to act more "civillized". Afraid to smile, afraid to think and no longer bright-eyed. It's not so much bleakness, nor apathy, but a growing mask of egotism, the need to not look stupid and be laughed at. Yet I am richer, more educated, more physically fit. It's as if I have created a self which is now valuable but must now protect it from shattering like a precious fragile china. My younger self would have destroyed this pristine, self-conscious, self-focused, self-absorbed self, and pissed on the broken glass.

Was it because my younger self had little capacity to picture himself in other's shoes? Or did he just not have enough time to process how a stranger might think, and only had enough power to process what he thought?

good job you listed 4 things instead of 5 and now you look stupid in front of others (judging you VERY harshly rn)

1 can be fixed by taking up a hobby, reading for example
>but no hobby can satisfy this void
then chances are you need a direction in life

also, 2 can be fixed by taking a more rational approach and stopping yourself to think "do i really stand out more than anyone else right now?" or "will anyone even remember this?", it's hard to stop to think about that kind of thing, but eventually if you try you'll learn to stop yourself

3 can be fixed by never overstating, stepping back and allowing room for others to critique whatever it is you've said, and by taking a conscious effort in presenting yourself to others
you also should try to fit the format of others around you

5 is simply insecurity, which can be fixed by being confident in who you are
it seems paradoxical that someone who overstates can be insecure, but in reality narcissism and overstating is a reaction to insecurity
a lot of this goes away with experience, the rest goes away when you find your life's purpose

also yes, it is all in the mind, no drug or book or item could fix the problem, drugs would just convince you you don't have a problem
hope you actually bother to do something about it unlike my roommate who whines about depression half the day and watches videos/plays games/does some other instant-gratification thing and wonders why his life is so empty

you likely believe that others are generally uninformed in life and that they simply don't pay attention to the minutiae as much as you do, when in reality others have likely had similar thoughts
this can get carried to the extreme when you start overstating and presenting yourself as a professional when inside casual environments, and gives the impression of a narcissist

try not to assume yourself as the leader of the conversation, you'll get exactly the impression you're looking for if you're able to casually explain complicated subjects without paying any attention to how you sound or look saying it
and rather than, for instance, saying "well just take a derivative of both sides and then use this identity" say "couldn't we just take a [...[?", as it makes you seem more passive than aggressive

addressing your second part, if you constantly think "oh god i fucked up", that isn't doing shit
you have to actually reflect on it and say "what could i have done differently?"

thing is, for it to be meaningful you have to already know what it is you're _supposed_ to say
once you know that, your anxiety becomes constructive as it allows you to reflect

as for the first point, it's about talking unassertively
acting assertive is useful in professional environments, however if you act assertive in casual conversations (even when it's about studying or working on a project), it'll make you seem stuck up
you have to be assertive in some situations, but you really have to learn to speak as if you could be wrong (even if you know for a fact you're right) until you're able to gain enough of a reputation

it's pretty difficult to address this point and give you solid advice since i learned to talk like this many years ago

also it might seem a bit self-contradictory but you have to realize that talking as if you're uncertain is completely different than actually being uncertain
you could be uncertain but talk as if you're certain, for instance

the reason this was written so assertively was because you were explicitly asking questions and i was providing answers, by the way
the main reason you see so many fights on 4chan is because you see others acting assertive to each other when they're both trying to solve a problem, but have different perspectives. if one were to be less assertive in a debate, you'll see that the debate progresses much smoother

Towards here, I have at least a negation of what my life is, the absence a presence, the earth hostile and man nefarious, and I'm tired, I'm tired of your kindness tonight as your holy path. Lay down your life against the earth and see if it isn't unkind, that it doesn't desire. Look into your flesh and see the organisms that work for you, with you, because of you, and those that are destroying you, the parasites that feast and in order to keep feasting praise your kindness and tell you that it is higher, that it is praiseworthy above negation, above death. This is the path of those who hate with sincere kindness, that hate the world enough to wall themselves in rather than as they say, expand themselves outward into the cosmos. Existence is violence, the serpent has shit an earth of suffering for pigs to become more filthy. Glory be to destruction - but I have nothing to hate except this day ... and I'm tired and need to sleep.

No one can keep his griefs in their prime; they use themselves up. The same is true of homesickness, of any nostalgia. Regrets lose their luster, wear themselves out by their own momentum, and after the fashion of the elegy, quickly fall into desuetude.
What then is more natural than to establish oneself in exile, the Nowhere City, a patrie in reverse? To the degree that he revels in it, the poet erodes the substance of his emotions, the resources of his misery as well as his dreams of glory. The curse from which he drew pride and profit no longer afflicting him, he loses, along with it, both the energy of his exceptional status and the reasons for his solitude.
Rejected by Hell, he will try in vain to reinstate himself there, to be reinvigorated by it: his sufferings, too mild now, will make him forever unworthy of it. The cries of which he was only yesterday still proud have become bitterness, and bitterness does not become verse: it will lead him beyond poetry. No more songs, no more excesses. His wounds healed, there is no use pointing to them in order to extract certain accents: at best he will be the epigone of his pains.
An honorable downfall awaits him. Lacking diversity, original anxieties, his inspiration dries up. Soon, resigned to anonymity and even intrigued by his mediocrity, he will assume the mask of a bourgeois from nowhere in particular. Thus he reaches the end of his lyrical career, the most stable point of his degeneration.

Dobby relished his groinsaw's roar as he withdrew the flesh-choked blade from the astronaut's ruined skull. He turned to Harry, thrusting his bloody, retina-covered pelvis with elfin fervor.

"How does Ronnie Ron taste, master?"

Harry spat out an eyeball. "Like some kid with eyes."

Dobby ducked an astronaut's poison barbed fist, digging his groinsaw into the beast's abdomen and letting the spray of viscera wash over his elfin space armor. The skulls' eye sockets on his shoulders grew brilliant with an infernal cast and vomited a bolt of light through an astronaut; he was thrown back against the deathwall, his flesh boiling in another dimension.

Harry slapped Dobby, who giggled.

Harry reminded himself to kill himself later.

"Master, look out!"

Dobby's groinsaw screamed as it flew off the armor, rocketing through the air like an early dream of mankind. It flew through three astronauts who dropped their hellspears as the saw cut a hole in the ground beneath them so they fell to hell forever.

I took the STEM path and now I only scrape together some words every couple of days, making short stories to submit to places.

I really just want to quit my shitty job and do creative work full time, but I'm afraid of failing and ending up in a worse financial position. Beyond my savings I don't have much support to fall back on, and the dilemma is that long term, those savings are guaranteed to serve me better if I invest them wisely than if I whittle them down spending maybe 2 years of my life on a moonshot at my real dreams.

I've had this dream for a while now, that what I want in life is a small house in the countryside, a little bit of land to call my own with a river, or maybe a lake. Work some job in a small town where I'm helping people. Maybe have a family to come home too. Something simple. I'm not sure if this is just my laziness, or not wanting to step out of my comfort zone. That's what I've always been told it was. My father is constantly pushing me to do better, to do more. I got an internship for my STEM degree at university, for the spring and the summer. But it's not being an astronaut or an engineer at NASA like I told him I thought would be fun a few years ago when people asked me what I wanted to do. I love him for it, always wanting the best for me. I'm not all in on my degree, I don't feel this deep passion for it, I find it more annoying, or even boring at times. Maybe again this is just me being lazy, and wanting to take the easy route and not work hard. But even in my dream I realize it will be hard work, but that kind of work is something I want to be able to do. To fix up a house for me and my family, to spend the day helping others, even if its just packing their groceries. I know I'm romanticizing small town life a lot. I unironically miss my summer job of watering trees.

Am I just a loser who wants the easy route and not to step out of my comfort zone?

In life I have come to the realization that I must choose pursuing money to support a family and have good things, or scrape by pursuing art. There is no in between. I don't know which to choose, and I'm worried I will make the wrong decision. This weight hangs over my life and consciousness and every thought I make. Am I destroying myself?
>second
For the past few years I have been pretty socially successful. Most people liked me, I got along with people and they thought I was funny. I got invited to parties and people wanted to be with me. Now, in senior year of high school, I find myself with more social control that I ever had. However, first semester I let my power get the best of me, and lorded it over people. Now, many people resent me for this, and everything I worked for throughout the past three years is proving itself to be vapid and unfulfilling.
I still want as much control as possible until school ends, so I've restrategized and my new approach is to be meek and refrain from asserting my power. I am also trying to be nicer to people. However, this isn't because I was to be better, it's because I want power and control. Will this all collapse on me? When?
I think I may also be destroying my body, and people around me don't respect that. I justify it to myself by saying it's ironic and I do it for art. Nothing extreme, just sleep deprivation, drinking too much coffee, drinking alcohol, irregular eating habits, eating poor quality food, etc. This doesn't sound too haram, but it's really bringing down my productivity. Also, I'm spending more & more time online, and don't like other people as much.
I have become more willing to take advantage of women. I’m fairly attractive (I’ve heard 7/10 from multiple sources, and the people I hang out with tend to be in this bracket) and people think I’m clever. This tends to appeal to women who are in my vicinity, but don’t know me well. I wish women who I knew and loved would be more attracted to me. That being said, I also am barely attracted to lasses anymore. I haven’t masurbated since August of 2017 and have little desire to copulate in general.
On Valentine’s Day, I asked out a good looking co worker to go see a movie with me, and she, surprisingly, accepted. Then I realized I didn’t want to go through with this, so I pulled out and made up some excuses, telling her we would do it later. I don’t like my willingness to play on unsuspecting girls’ attraction to me, and am trying to stop this. That being said, it is so satisfying knowing that I can have my pick of most lasses on the outer reaches of my social circles.
It’s not satisfying enough. I don’t know if I want love or if I want to avoid people the rest of my life.
I’m basically conflicted in the most cliched way. I don’t want to be trite, but is this what life is like?

It's absolutely intolerable, I seriously don't know how people can stand it for forty plus years, unless they have some sort of fantasy dream job. I know I couldn't do it. Right now I'm only working so I can one day escape this hellscape, because if I don't then I'm sorry but it's suicide for me. Yet the Asians just can't seem to get enough of it. What is wrong with them? Don't they have any higher goals or ambitions than social approval and material pleasure? What is going on in those insect brains? They disturb me. How could somebody willingly choose to work themselves to death for some faceless corporation? It's such a repulsive and terrifying attitude towards life

A girl I dated for a month got asked out for a date by some other guy and she immediately broke up with me and she told me that i was just a worthless distraction.

I'm feeling sad that a girl that really likes me seems to want to end, because I don't give her enough attention and don't spend enough time with her.
I told her I need some time for myself these days, beginning of semester, started boxing and want to focus on myself a bit. She completely understood and still agrees to meet me as a language partner (she's Chinese, I'm learning her tongue).
But this weekend something has happened and now she's ignoring me. I guess it's my own fault for not wanting to spend time with her, but she's such a sweet girl that really loves me. I don't really know how to proceed. Then again, I guess I got what I wanted - loneliness.

Sometimes I wonder why I do what I do. I think I really can't let go of my guards and love someone else, because I don't really love myself. I'm succesful in school, attractive, have many 'friends', but I still don't love myself. How do I get to the core of this problem? I want to love me, I'm pretty awesome, or so they say, but how do I convince myself of that?

Anyway, good day.

I'm stretched between various ambitions, and I always gravitate towards the same old; masturbation and video games.

I sometimes see kids who had done cardio since youth excel in things such as force recon. I feel like I need to project my style of masturbation and video games onto my ambitions.

I enjoy managing stocks much more when it's a game, and there's a window of monetization that actually exists when this is done.

There are three core aspects of trading: technicals (the statistics of the stocks performance), fundamentals(how good the company is) and sentiment. Sentiment is the most important one ultimately; it is how people feel about the stock. There are periods where a stock is live and the megacorps don't have enough time to price in their bets. This is called volatility, and simply being good at guessing allows you to scalp the market. I figure I should specialize in this, because I can apply my skills from masturbation and video games to it.

As for art and writing, those will simply take grinding and gitting gud.

I'm struggling to work out what I want to do with my life.

I work as a journalist for a relatively boring science-related trade magazine. It gives me the chance to practice my writing and I occasionally get to travel and speak to some interesting people. But my heart is not in the work.

I'm interested in politics and I've had a couple of articles published in the national press, but I don't know whether I'd like to move to the capital and write for a national newspaper. It would take a tremendous amount of work to make that a reality and I don't know if I'd be happy doing it.

I also want to learn more about history, philosophy, psychology and religion.

I have an urge to develop a unique worldview.

Ideally, I'd like to work for a publication where could report on real problems, see the world, and speak to every day people. I want to develop a worldview based on the combination of reading and life-experience.

My work said they'd pay for me to study for a diploma in journalism, which would allow me to become a newspaper journalist, but only if I stayed and the company for a ear after the course.

I need to find a way to balance (in addition to working 37.5 hours a week, lifting weights for 6 hours a week and having a gf) writing freelance articles, studying for the diploma, and reading.

I don't have a solid picture in my head of what my aim is, so I fail to motivate myself and end up blogging here instead.

I haven't had a drink in a week. I don't feel any different. I might even feel worse. Now I have nothing to look forward to but my sleeping pills. Hanging out with friends at the coffee houses has become especially hard. After two hours of drinking juice I just didn't feel like I belonged. I wanted to leave but then who knows what they would have thought. Me, the first to leave, is something unheard of. So I stayed. Sinking deeper and deeper into thought. Two or three pints would have had me in high spirits, telling jokes, laughing, being somebody else, that somebody whose company they enjoy. But now it's just a lifeless, sorry sack of meat, occupying a chair in their midst. I went to the toilet and cried. I came back sporting that fake smile of a stripper I've practiced so often it appears natural. I watched them finish their drinks. Then we paid and I went home. I got the idea to take a break after a friend counted on her fingers just how many were worried about my mental health and alcohol consumption. I jokingly shrugged it off. I wanted to show them that I didn't have any problem at all to take a break. I still don't think I do. But next weekend, the end of a 10 day break (a personal record) I might as well OD on that stuff. Save them the trouble of being worried. Save me the trouble of appearing alive and well.

Realizing that success is generational from an objective standpoint really made me reconsider the way I live my life, but in a really bad way, because it made me realize that a lot of what I want to accomplish for myself is only stuff that will lead to it being passed onto my children, because it's impossible for me; and at that realization, collapsing into a state of shame for the amount of envy I have for other people around me that live the apex of perfection, already, knowing that if I want to ever achieve that for my children, it will be a lifetime's work to do so, and they will always bear the mistakes of my father and mother who brought me to be like this in the first place.

Imagine a world run by women.

Humanity never invents the following:
shields
metallurgy
clothing
dyes

Humanity never makes it out of the stone age ever

Globally humans are endangered due to the ruling women reproducing with a single minority of men, the men who dont breed are brutally enslaved and forced to do labor that the women wont do and the sexy guys dont want to do either. The sexy guys are treated like gods by the women ruling the tribes. What is sexy guy depends on the woman, for example if the women are pedophiles they will force very attractive little boys to fuck them or very attractive teenage boys to fuck them. Women will be sexual predators they will openly molest the sexy males in the tribe, when angry the women will choose a non breeder and torture him slowly or quickly depending on their mood. When things go south for the tribe the nonbreeders are the scapegoats.

Eventually each tribe becomes inbred due to breeding with so little men and the spawn develop a genetic incestual attraction to one another increasing that inbreeding even greatly.

There is rampant violence and murder in the tribes as the men breed with are psychopathic meaning the spawn are psychopathic leading to chaos in tribes and eventually the total collapses of them entirely.

Within time the human species becomes extinct.

The women of course turn on eachother all the time blaming one another for problems this leads to murder since men are the only reason women act like cowards and dont attack you directly but if they were in control they would attack you directly.

If a nonbreeder even looks at a woman she can kill him with a stone weapon anytime she likes it,in some cases the women will cannibalize on the nonbreeder raw(Africa) or cooked(Eurasia).

Women also despite their Chadcracy still desire Chad for only them and thus only the ruling caste of girls in a tribe get the Chaddiest chads the rest get the leftover chads this doesnt stop the women in the tribe from violently assaulting eachother for having the chads in the first place. In our patriachal world women are cowards who rely on mental subversion to take away their competition in this world they are not instead they openly kill eachother in daylight quite casually for the glory of Chad cock belong only to them.

Family means nothing here there are no fathers only mothers and kids, the nonbreeders are slaves not fathers remember. A woman will murder her daughter if she attracts a Chad she desires regardless of that daughter's age REGARDLESS OF THAT DAUGHTER's age, and vice versa for the daughter.

Male offspring are molested by women in the tribe to determine if they are worth breeder or nonbreeder status, if nonbreeder the sisters of that brother will bully him for life and treat him like shit, often the mother will beat up the son for no reason while the sisters gang up on him as well. If the son is a breeder the sisters and mother may desire him sexually leading to internal strife in that family of course.

Friendships dont exist thats a male term women backstab eachother and use eachother to get attention from Chads thats their idea of "friendship".

I think I'm going to kill myself pretty soon, maybe within the year but probably earlier. I've entertained the thought for a while, since I became a teenager, and I really think it's best I get it over with now while my life is fairly comfortable rather than prolong my existence any longer than necessary.

Today I spent the day lying in bed and read through Wikipedia's "List of suicides" entry. It's incredible how many people there are who were smarter and happier and more talented than me, and who also took their own life. And these are just the significant and admirable suicides. But what about the billions of insignificant suicides from across history, the suicides of WWII Japan and Ancient Rome?

If there is a God, I am fairly certain that no organized religion properly captures him and his tenets. And I have seen no evidence for an afterlife, though it is a very poetic idea.

Suicide can be beautiful. The pain it will cause to others will be tremendous, I must admit that this is a cowardly and selfish act, even hateful, but the others seem less sensitive to pain and stronger than myself, and though their lives will be damaged, their pain will also one day fade with their eventual death.

I am another expendable casualty of the information age. My parents will look back and remember how their son ODed on sitcoms, tweets, and processed cheese. Every touch hurts my delicate skin. Every thought hurts my wimpy, crybaby brain. It's time to extinguish consciousness and find freedom from this life. I feel very relieved.for having written this out.

You're nothing. You're a piece of shit who probably doesn't even read. You spend untold hours on 4chan, and you've spent so much time here, that you can actually hold a conversation with a normie about literature, and draw upon what you've read here to pass as a reader.

I watched Californication, season 1 epsisode 1 ten years ago before I ever had sex. Hank moody feld like an admirable character. And while I still think I should get back to getting more pussy, ending up like that makes me almost scared.
In 2007, things were good. I wateched Veronica Mars and studying time was comfy.
Now I wonder if I should stop consuming those right winger youtube videos. But if I want to consume any political opinion form others, then clearly it can't be left-wing, and they do nothing else than staw-manning. At least there are some reasonable people among the right-leaning. The leftists don't even bother getting familiar with their opponents. Makes me angry about them.
But more broadly, it's fucking strange how things have changed. I became a crypto millionair and now I feel bad even of the portrait of poor to middle class people, as I know that there are about 100000 people in the world who also have more money than they know what to do with, and so much potential is wasted and driving into this silly avoidable wage game, this time waste.

There should be a Bureau of [Language] for all actively spoken languages. An organization that officially accepts new colloquial words, actively researches ways to improve the language in deeper ways than adding vocabulary, like fixing inconsistencies in grammar and spelling (think German language reform from a couple years ago), and handles things like business writing standards as one set entity.

God mode: The same, but for writing systems.

I'll admit I never finished Philosophical Investigations, but I don't remember him speaking out against actively influencing language evolution. If you mean that languages inevitably adopt words and grammar structures when it requires them then I'll point out that "requiring" them is a terrible guideline to go by. That's like arguing prose doesn't matter and books should only be about plot: we don't want to express ourselves in a sufficient way, but in a way that conveys the intended meaning as accurately as possible (this includes the way the way we present the meaning influences the meaning).

The general views is building very historical identity, and trying to find the Zeitgeist and be embodiment of it and try to be not ahistorical while knowing that previous embodiments of Zeitgeists (Catherine II, Julius Caesar, Piotr Wysocki, Cassandra of Illiad, The 60s Astronauts, Holocaust victims, etc. etc.). Sadly it is polish so I can't help.
Well, it would be that people simply would not see the politics. As we can see modern politics descends into mad bureaucracy, and radicalisms just descend into ahistorical identitiy (leftists and far right still being in early 20th century), meanwhile everything now is depoliticized.

It would provide something like an official explanation on how they work, with some fancy examples to showcase their usage, and encourage people to use them when they're the tool that best allows their intended meaning to be conveyed. Ideally it would also encourage things like meme arrows in "proper" writing (emails, books, manuals, etc). There is no reason for us to enforce arbitrary restrictions on our writing system. Written language shouldn't have to try to be as similar to the spoken language as possible, there's nothing wrong with literary devices that can't be expressed in speech.

i'm in my last year of university and i've been having a mounting existential crisis over the past few weeks.

I have a job after school, I know where I will be living, and I am relatively set in most departments, but the idea of what comes next is terrifying to me. for the past 21 years i have existed in a cyclical routine of summer, school, then summer again, always with the knowledge that my teachers, my desks, and my buildings were relatively temporal. always nine months until another move. even leaving to live on my own during university wasn't a shocking change, for i was independent for the first time, but the routine stayed the same. but the rug is being pulled out from underneath me – i'll never be able to look forward to summer vacation, or the knowledge that if the going gets rough there will only be X more months until i get to start over with a new school year and a clean slate. for once, things are constant...and I don't know what that's like.

This isn't completely true. You will still be able to get a change of environment by changing jobs, even if such changes don't happen as frequently. If you do well with saving money, you may be able to take a decent break between jobs. (This all depends on what kind of work you're getting into, I suppose.) I suggest finding things you want to do over the long term, e.g. travel, or hobbies, or whatever. Don't let your work take over. Now that school is over, it is time to begin living your life.

Immigration has very little correlation with wages, at least in the US.

The argument against *public sector* unions is that public employees already wield power at the "firm" through the political process and that unions shift the government from severing the public good to serving the good of government employees.

They're not against people making higher wages, they're against a mandated minimum wage because it distorts the labor market, ie, some people's labor is simply not worth $15/hr. They'd prefer other forms of redistribution, I believe they exercised cautious optimism for a basic income at one point.

Then you would have to find some other way to get that work done. Most people are not going to work for less than $15/hr because it's basically impossible to live off that in certain areas.

Something interesting (and frustrating) happens to me whenever I try to remember something I have suddenly forgotten in the moment. This happens when I attempt to find the forgotten memory through tracing through my thoughts deeply, or by the process of association.

When attempting to travel through thought and find the memory, the very impression and fact that I have forgotten the memory tends to interfere in the process, and creates another mental substitute memory which then becomes another obstacle I have to deviate from or derive associations from in order to find the path to the memory, and by then, the paths of association are corrupted with a distorted idea, and ultimately I will not be able to find my way to the real memory I was originally intending to find.

This is a mouthful. Hopefully someone understands. It is really strange and I have noticed it much as of late. It as if though the very process (of association or finding the memory) becomes an obstacle memory itself. Strange.

I asked my gf this morning or yesterday whether she would write back to me (I sent her a letter and an album for Valentine's day). She selectively avoids questions. I asked her if she liked the album, but she just asked a silly question back. Then I asked her if she'd write me back and she hasn't said anything despite being "online" and surely having seen the message. I've been thinking about what to say and everything was a beta style passive aggressive inquiry. I can't believe it was an epiphany to just ask: "Why do you avoid answering some questions?" I could then add on various things that would include or explain my hurt feelings or could just leave it at that which is probably the least beta option. She may have written a letter, but I find this unlikely. I suppose this is divine punishment for masturbating again after I've abstained (for which I was rewarded the gf in the first place).
