I've never smoked a cigarette in my life, but I've been getting the most insane cravings for a ciggie for quite literally months. Like I think about smoking several times a day every day, and I generally find myself looking up pictures of people smoking, info about brands, tips on how not to get addicted whenever I'm on my phone and I stop concentrating. It's fucking weird and I'm on the verge of just going out and buying a pack

I'm just about to turn twenty this weekend, so kind of too old to be doing rebellious shit. But maybe it is just some kind of rebellious thing, because my family, my peer group and the larger society is so against it. Fuck I hope not, that would just be teenage and embarrassing

It is a teenage rebellion thing in my opinion because by this time you've generally outgrown all the really petty teenage edge stuff like listening to music to annoy your parents and being angsty all the time but you have to remember that even though you feel mature it doesn't mean that you actually are.

My dad had this tick where he'd blink really fast if he was angry. My clearest memory of him is one in which I was much younger, maybe 6 or 7. At that age I played soccer in the seasonal youth league. We had games in the park near my house. During one of the seasons, my coach at the time said both himself and the assistant coach wouldn't be able to make one of the games we had. My father volunteered to step in as a substitute coach for the game. Now, I wasn't very good at soccer. I wasn't even average. But my father expected me to be. I unknowingly connected my father's approval and love to my performance in soccer. Growing up I always knew my family's love and support was always conditional. This isn't something I'm trying to hold against them, by the way. In a sea of mystery meat, the unyielding hurricane that is the kwa, I had to make a name for myself, and validate all of the efforts my parents had made in their lives. Looking at "their lives" from the perspective of my life just made it seem like everything they ever did ultimately culminated in the conception of me, which gave support to my theory anyways. So, season after season, I signed up for soccer, I went to all the practices, and all the games, just to do nothing of note year after year. I think I averaged a single goal a season, if at all. You can see why my father was eager to coach the team. His wanton desire to see his son achieve anything drove him to seize the reigns of the chariot of victory itself. If I couldn't achieve anything, then he'd force me to with his hand at the helm of my crumpled soul. The day of the game was punctuated with rain. When we ran, mud kissed at our shins like drunken butterflies, and when we stopped, our blood retreated away from our skin and the wind chipped away at our hearts. My father had me on the field for the entirety of the game, constantly shouting commands at me. I felt like a colossal bomber shot to pieces, condemned to death, gliding in lazy morbid circles as the pilots in the cockpit frantically shouted commands to the crew, cursing the neutered bird as they fell. It’s all blended together now, inch for inch, breathe for breathe, we were beaten, but I lost. I remember as I walked across the field as the game ended to meet my father. He stared down to me, simmering, blinking rapidly. His eyes brewed hatred and fire, the color red stoked and sparked as he blinked. I wonder now how his gaze didn’t melt my small body there, leaving nothing but ash, immediately washing me away in little rivulets of sadness.

I seem to think there’s an intrinsic truth to the present moment that is lost when it ceases to be the present. Things that were true at one point are no longer true by the sole virtue of their now being in the past. Nothing continues, everything is in in flux and if something appears true for more than one present then it's pure coincidence not owing to any legitimacy of that thing, because it isn't the same thing any more.

My passion has always been for ancient history and philosophy. Ever since this last American election, I realized how ignorant I am about political things and modern history, and I've tried to get into it, only to end up with a huge backlog. Beyond that, while I've gained knowledge, I can't say I'm into any of it in particular, but at the same time I hate feeling stupid and out of the loop, and I'm paranoid about missing a piece of information that might radically shift my life, while also worrying about finding it out too late. Nothing scares me more than waking up at 50 or something realizing that all I've spent my time doing and chasing after was a lie.
I feel it's cowardly to just crawl into your comfort zone and spend all your time there.... but the only reading I'm progressing with what I'm doing now is because I hope there'll be some payoff at the far-off end of the line in a decade from now, where I'll either get what I needed from it or at least have significant grounds to dismiss it other than 'lol this is boring'.
But I don't know. I'm sad. And I don't know what to do.

precisely my potentially poignant point. Youre stance is: the only reason anything is and can possibly be enjoyable is because when it is done, there is such thing as 'pleasure juice' that makes the consciousness feel good.

when sports teams are losing, and still playing, do we imagine they receiving dopamine? have you ever played a sport and been angry and serious?

You really think if there was no such thing as the feeling of pleasure people would not desire to live on earth? There are people that are depressed (apparent lack of dopamine) and look miserable, there are people whos life and jobs suck and they are anger and hate and miserable, and yet they still strive to live

but humans need to socialize because our thoughts are mediated through language which is a shared system, so whenever u think you are verbalizing, and over time u need to talk to another person to get feedback on the stuff you are thinking, so yeah for extroverts socializing is no doubt a dopamine flood, and probably for primates thats all it is, but for humans its more due to language

>a dopamine flood
I said, even if an extrovert didnt have dopamine, imagine that was possible, a person that really likes to be around other people, being alone can be scary, all alone in the dark, just with you and your thoughts, imagine a person who is used to people and social and family and friends, without dopamine, now placed in solitary confinement with no human contact or talking, trays of food just dropped under the door without a word. Do you think that person would desire human interaction solely because they desire dopamine drip? Potentially if you are right, if you gave that person a drug, they wouldnt need the social interaction, as the social interaction is just a kind of drug. So maybe you are right. Maybe that extroverted, very social person, without dopamine mechanism, there would be substitues that they could live 40 years in solitary confinement, and be content and satisfied. Sure you can say, give them a book, but thats close to representing human interaction, an other humans thought. So in this thought experiment, they just have nothing in the room at all. Everything we would offer to see if they could not handle that just being alone, what they could handle, would be a representation of being able to escape just being lonely.

people "really like" things because their brain is wired to get dopamine from them, some things are universal like sugar, cocaine, sex, etc. but in every individual different things may turn them on, but there is no "really like" that is separate from dopamine, thats why you "really like" something, because your brain got wired to to get dopamine from it, someone who can walk through the met and be bored is getting no dopamine from art, someone who spends all day and forgets what time it is, is getting a flood, again read a book on the brain bruh

I’m walking towards this chocolate woman, my eyes up and down her body. She looks at me and runs a tongue over her lips, biting her teeth together in a clamp. Her chest is ‘breathing heavily’ from a dress that holds up her behemoth bosom with thing strips. I hug her close to me, my hands around are around her waist.

They slowly cup her ass and she asks, “What are you doing?”

“I want to warm up.”

As she takes me to her office, I lay her flat, undo her bra, and let her breasts spill on her desk as her ass cheeks slap against my stomach.

“What if you get me pregnant?”

“I will pay you ten million dollars to keep it a secret.”

I can do this because I am Prince of Germany land.

I get her pregnant. All my friend’s girlfriends let me take their virginity. All my friend’s girlfriend’s moms sleep with me behind their daughter’s backs, as a right of passage for them getting to sleep with the Prince of Germanyland. Blonde and red head teacher bang me every night. Movie stars force me into fake movies with real sex scenes, and once we are done having real sex constantly, the movie is cancelled. I have kids with everyone.

Then I’m all done having sex with the tub of mayonnaise from Tinder.

Do you think I dont know the base point you are saying, that dopamine is related to and creates and provides the sensation of pleasure, do you think I am not aware of that, I am trying to probe around it, and discuss if it is certainly known for certain that that is absolutely the only possible nature of experiencing pleasure, happiness, joy... the nature of preference. If it was possible that there was no dopamine, for a person, there would be no such thing as value, or preference, a person could not find a circle beautiful, a person could not value continuing to live on earth, simply because trees looked interesting and they liked mountains, and seeing people... you are the one that is crude and simple minded.

I think its because I like mutual creativity, I like witnessing and interacting with a creative force, and I dont think that is purely because dopamine hits, I think if there was not such thing as dopamine there still might be such thing as boredom, the absence of data, of input, of interest and intrigue, and there would be a desire to make something ,explore, experience something rather than nothing

I thought at first that it was just a story of your life but the vocabulary showed that it is fiction (or at least, a story trying to be literature)
I don't like your prose, it is way too unnecesarily anguish, It seems you are trying to force the reader to feel empathy for the protagonist but it just makes it cringe worthy, it seems unrealistic while it is not symbolizing anything, difficult words for the sake of making it "cute" to read, the protagonist seems like a weak person and shows no character what so ever, just "my father wasn't supportive boohoo" but no real value on it, but I liked the not linear prose, at least it makes a contrast, however, it is not special and a 15 years old could write something like that
I am sorry Anon, but it is too generic and too dramatic for the reader, not interesting enough to cativate, not easy enough to make it good read but not hard enough to make me feel connected to the prose

The character can be weak but still be great, Araby is a great example for that, but the thing with early Joyce's prose is that he was not trying to make it seems more than it is, even if the protagonist was weak, it was still relatable and not overly dramatic, you should just make the protagonist seems more human than a poet while talking about the problems with his life, there is no meaning behind the unnecessary words, there is nothing special about them, write in a more realistic way so it can make it more relatable and less dramatic, you don't need to "OH MY GOD I AM SO BAD" to make the character appears weak, I recommend
-Write in a more realistic way
-Don't make it too much dramatic
-Use less words and no difficult ones, if you put words for the sake of words, it is not worth reading it
I hope I've helped you, good luck developing

the reason the anon may suggesting this is because, no matter how gruesome and dreary you depict it with language (none of which I had a problem with, your writing is good and interesting and gripping, and good at painting pictures and emotions...genuinely being good cop here) he likely doesnt think he can ever be that sympathetic with the situation, in terms of, it was a soccer game...well actually in this sense your writting did work, because it did really highlight how powerful the dad was, that it was just a soccer game, and there was so much seriousness and feelings and horror in volved in a little meaningless childs game. Everyone knows of the angry parent coach of angry parent on the sideline. So from one perspective its like, woah, the dads just a dick, and on the other hand its like, that doesnt matter, because the dads experience and the kids experience are real, and this is what that realness is like. That anon offering advice maybe subconciously is thinking 'its just a soccer game, who fucking cares' so is telling you to trim words and stuff, maybe even because it had any affect at all on him and he doesnt think it should, matching with the characters sentiments, yada yada, dont kill your darlings, at least never permanently (if you do change anything do it in a separate file so you have that writing saved), it would certainly help to see your other writing, the context clues, to make any legit judgement about the over all work, and this section in particular

I myself hate realism, I think it is shame that Art tries to seek reality for a great thing, however amateur writers tend to make it seems more beautiful and more special than it is, this is not good for the book, this is not helping the continuation, this is not helping the reader to have interest, if you want to write something realistic, write in a realistic way, it can be with a normal prose or a stream of consciousness one, but if you are going to make it have beautiful words and everything fancy like that, don't throw it like they have no meaning and are just there for the aesthetic, make it have a symbolism, make it have a meaning

I mean you are telling him to eliminate words, yea its one of the longer posts in this thread, but dont let 4chan add infest this potentially true artists true vision and feelings.

Can you highlight some lines directly you think can be removed?

You dont like how depressive and mopey the character seems... well what if thats the character, and its driving home the point, and making the reader recall and sympathize maybe, with the son, or father, that this dynamic exists, and it is kind of , potentially veery tragic, a small slice of modern t ragedy. it is setting the table for more interaction between them, and more exploring of this character how they experience other things in their life.

I have developed severe agoraphobia and my brain is filled with fog.

I have no idea how to break out of this place, my parents dont really seem to care. They feed me and shelter me, thats about it. I never learned how to be a competent adult.

women dont like me because im an incompetent loser with no money, job, still lives at home, no adult skills and have the body of Henry Kissinger (circa 2018). I wouldn't know how to meet a woman, talk to her, date her, or fuck her.
I have severe low self esteem to the point of masochistic psychosis.

A girl has never touched me, they dont talk to me. I feel a hollowness inside more vast than the universe. Like a plant without water.

I have a lot of time to think about things, life, politics. Im glad i was a loser in the age of the internet.


the rootless cosmopolitans that rule over us despises us and despise the nation state. they plan on replacing you demographically in order to attain more cheap slave labor, consumers, and profit. They will brain drain third world countries in the name of multiculturalism and tolerance. They will let the 3rd world hordes fill in the jobs they couldn't outsource. They will accuse you of racism for not accepting your countries demise. The left will not fight for your workers rights because they have been trained to fight the native worker who they now view as morally repugnant, backwards, racist, misogynist, and all other kinds of isms. The liberal left are the foot soldier in oppressing the native worker. They use minority oppression, identity politics, and culture wars to divide the proletariat against each other rather than unite them as an economic unit based on class

America’s future is present-day 2018 California: corrupt, brown, and bankrupt. The end game of a nation where republicans can no longer be elected and minorities are the majority. There is no melting pot. There are only self indulgent tribes fighting for their fuck you got mine. And altruistic white liberals and globalists have led us to this state. The future of america is the present of California. Extreme poverty, third world conditions, decaying infrastructure, and hordes of shitskins

The hyper atmoization of culture and society will continue rendering everyone and everything into fragmented isolated neotribes fighting each other in a never ending culture war


TLDR: sometimes i feel very sad

The most consistent source of happiness I've found so far is hope. When you truly feel your life is headed in a good direction, it's better than any simple pleasures out there. However, you have to genuinely believe in it, which is tricky. Religion used to fill this niche, but it's very hard to put faith in it without some proof. But still there are 'spiritual experiences' documented across many belief systems from several centuries ago, and it's hard to wave them away. The more I look at it, the more depressing is our society's mindset, and the more uplifting the religious one. Even if it's wrong, you will still live more content than otherwise. And most religions share a similar morality, so by following one, you'd hypothetically be earning favor with others by performing the same virtues. It seems like a win-win scenario.

Do you know what I mean? Some of the smartest people I've met were Christian, and I wonder if they went through a thought process like this too.

I’m 21 and wasted the best years of my life sitting in my room being a depressed little faggot instead of having formative experiences, and the past year I’ve developed IBS and a nerve pain condition that may never go away

Even if I manage to get my shit together I feel a constant sense of impending doom as though the world is ending and I won’t be able to experience anything good before my inferior subhuman genes are wiped away in WWIII or ecological collapse or whatever

Stop seeing her. Don't talk to her unless she contacts you, and if she does tell her to treat you nicely or fuck off. The girl you love, the one that thinks of you all the time and loves spending time with you, doesn't exist. Or if she did, she died ages ago and was replaced with a whore.

People who claim that fantasy, science fiction, and other such works of "genre fiction" to be inferior literature are glib pretentious reddit-tier plebians who are too stupid to realize that every literary work of fiction belongs to a genre, even their precious "muh literary merit" books (it's just that their genres are either obsolete or the philistines who pretend to read them aren't aware of the fact). Not every fantasy or sci fi novel is YA wish fulfilment or lowbrow airport entertainment. The only reason they don't know that some "genre fiction" can have literary merit or be as profound as their precious realistic novels of ≥100 years ago is because they don't bother to look out for them and because of their pathetic bias towards anything beyond their sad comfort zone. These people are no better than the normies that read John Green books. Actually, they are worse, since at least the people who read John Green don't pretend to be ultra intellectuals and have a higher chance of being employed (either now or soon in the future) and actually contributing to society.

There are big names in sci fi right, the cannon of sci fi. When people easily brush genre aside maybe they are doing the 10000s of books beyond the exalted ones, as they are seeking the heights of non sci fi, non western, non romance thriller mystery

I went too hard, and unlocked some depersonalization disorder in my brain, and now I don't know if I can do any sort of drug again. The worst part is this wasn't some signal saying this part of my life is over, and I need to move on, because this part was only beginning.

No, you'll smell like an ashtray either way, although there are ways to mitigate it.

For one thing, never hold a cigarette with your arm at rest or in a downward position. This causes the smoke to trail up your arm and body which makes your clothes reek even more than they will otherwise. Hold it with your arm extended outward or with your elbow bent so your hand is facing up. This will make you look kinda weird when you are smoking, but who cares.

Keep around some mints or gum so your breath doesn't constantly stink, there's nothing worse than tobacco breath, it's an immediate turnoff for 99% of people including other smokers. ESPECIALLY if you also drink coffee.

But regardless, you'll still smell like tabacco and that's a given. Don't smoke. If you are going to smoke, occasionally smoke a cigar or hit a pipe (and by occasionally I mean no more than twice a week) and don't inhale because both of those can still get you addicted and they'll fuck up your lungs far worse than cigarettes will.

Regardless of the health risks of cigarettes, you'll never truly understand how expensive the habit is until you actually start smoking and buying your own packs. 90% of people who quit, quit because they just can't afford it.

Once again, I was in Coffeeshop Omen, enterprising continental security with or without agreement of those who master the land, my mind presence was needed whilst a neutral yet powerful party did not agree with my bold actions of asking no permission doing so. They brought in their children and they know what is politeness as well as their elders, yet children as they say are the coldest to another, so they were stomping on my head in my presence of mind. The world I conducted myself in was not psychical yet how one reacts is truthfully the same if one angers another; this was not what I did not expect from the world; explaining that I was not dealing with unexplainable entities and or people I could not lay a finger on. As they were stomping on my head and making my fontanels liquid, I felt a slope in my skull, knowing that their feet were indeed, damaging my mind. Before I made the known choice to all that were listening that I was making my way to Coffeeshop Omen, forbidding me for they knew what happened before in that place yet for power’s sake and for national representation of who is in charge, I disobeyed the cruel and arrogant wielders of actual power of the cities and villages where I lived. I looked with disdain, misunderstanding and sadness to the skies, hoping they would understand that in this time of danger, I am needed and in fact, need money to keep influencing my mind with both smoking and drinking yet, my attempts were futile and had to conduct my ways to obtain while being in this heavy burden, walking with the laborers and putting myself to shame for only the elite knew what I was doing. A main reason of why I drank excessively and not listened to my health advisors was because they would not listen to my financial means. Later on this would be a reason for great shame and almost a loss of friendship, in turn, I got punishment from those who sent me and only come when great deed incorrectness and injustice is committed. Destroying the very essence of what I thought was my purpose, not by those who sent me as an agent of the Blue Triangle yet by those who saw a kink in my armor and chose to ruin my purpose in means of rest on my behalf. Truthfully they are kind, yet in kindness also lays destruction if not applied correctly or sought mistakes as reason of removal purely for the point of having rest themselves. Having met those who destroy for international code of conduct protectors, I met those who sent me, and punished me for being destroyed.

The freshly slaughtered Calf rose from the basement this morning, his moisture was glistening through the skinned skin. An employee conducting knife movement on his stomach said: ’’The Calf rises, brothers.’’ A new breed of Veal was coming into the world, meat none knew anything about other than its regular taste. All brothers knew what the Employee said and meant, the Calves they all spoke about for decades, even ages, was drawing near to hanging from the conveyor belt. Departments grew uneasy after the words had been said, 350 shut down for one week. Calves that weren’t slaughtered yet grew old in the basement told his fellow Calf for even the Cow heard the Employee speak, that indeed, times are changing, for all of us. Calves so old, as old as the House itself, that even they were not avoiding the Needle of Death anymore like they did for so long. Since 125 years ago, Veal that outsmarted the workers yet not the walls, grew old within the basement. Than in 1942, tales of a Calf Prophecy reached the basement, that someday, a Calf would rise, that it would drop dead by itself, removing the need of conducting such consciously labors. The tale also spoke of hanging without suspensions hooks, for It knew where he was going. Even without a beating heart, the Meat knew and knows. A new client grew weary, for after 10 years, they concluded safety in these Halls but now there is talk of floating Calves and Risement of a particular Calf. A delegation once again was sent, whilst slaughterhouse agents were deeply hidden on the vessel of the client. The one who spoke the Words of the Calf, was not left alone, some say, he was even hated for saying the Poem of Veal. For the Butchers waited so long, they knew it was a lie and this one Employee, was mocking their faith turned into disbelief. Yet the Employee knew and others too, The Calf Rises. Boss of Slaughterhouse Bosses, knew of the tale and the Prophecy, yet he knew, whatever the Calf meant, he would not lose this client of international grandeur. He secretly hired assassins, from the darkest, furthest, filthiest corner of Europe, to make sure the delegation would never arrive, until this Employee and the Prophecy was dealt with. The oldest Butchers know too well what they do when one stirs the people with talk of the Calf. They take those at night, when the House just sleeps, and scissor his legs. Not a regular cut, no, they make him retract his lower leg, his ‘’Calf’’ and scissor below the kneecap. You will lose your leg both low and high, the pain fullest of leg removal. The Employee feared nor thought about revenge or the Prophecy, for he was quoting a movie, yet changed Fire to Calf.

The reality that is seen yet is not believed, when one reality makes sense to you, the neutral reality. When it makes sense, you will with objective reality try to help solve and explain the reality that isnt making sense. Thus creating an pyschosis that is judged by an reality that makes sense and the one that isnt making sense. The one that makes sense is the one, keeping you, that is keeping you back that is from screaming in the air because you can talk with having conversations with a person in your head.When you are hold back by reasoning, you endure this pyschosis purely inside youre mind. You dont express this reality with others, making it unaltered by anyones spoken judgements, thus creating a butterflyeffect that evolve into an pyschosis, imaginiative reality yet gets doubted by reality and not letting this imaginitive reality to be expressed, meaning that you creating a reality based on objective reasoning yet fuelled by the mind. Meaning you objectivley are evolving the pyschosis r easons and reality. Thus creating a world that is experienced as this, you reason with an neutral reality about how the events in the imaginitive reality can be explained, by an neutral reality, making real life guesses, making creatable reasons, creating human possible reasons to explain these pyschosis, that bring up so many questions about that pyschosis. You endlessly keep guessing untill you snap of the pressure revealing your reality, expressing this reality. When you are com[aring reality with an pyschosis reality while living in both realitys. Meaning the rate of comparing realities is the rate your mental age increases. Meaning every second gets multiplied to 25 seconds. Meaning 1 secpmd om real-life is 25 seconds of data in your mind, for the mind accelerates time. Mental age gets influenced everytime you explain both realitys while living the realities. Meaning that you aree xplaining 2 realitys at the same time while living these realitys. Meaning that X=25/sec*realitys. Realitys=realitys seen and the other realitys believed. 25/sec*realitys*time=X. X=mental age increasement. Time is in seconds. 25/sec*2*3600=180.000. 25 frames per second*2realitys*1hour=data, meaning that when you receive; 9000 frames of data per hour, plus comparing 9000 frames of pyschosis data. Meaning that one hour in this state, you are doubting the hour experienced. Data obtained is X. X=25frames/sec*2realitys*time equals data. A=Mental age, B=Memories, T=Time. X+B*T=A. 5 years of memories. 1 hour=180000 frames, 15 hours equals 2700000 frames per day, 1 year based on 15 hours days=985500000 frames. 5 years=4927500000 frames of data guessed, on average by the human Eye.

It's my hand, not theirs, and I've had third degree burns before so it wouldn't even be a big deal.

Stronger sense of empathy, maybe. People are too high strung, though.
