You just literally posted an unironically boring conversation between your mother and yourself.

This is for certain going in an actual, legitimate cringe compilation.

my mother told me she read Anna Karenina when she was pregnant with me. I asked her about key plot points and characters and she remembered nothing. I guess she forgot it all or something, my mother was actually gifted at literary analysis and won a prestigious scholarship for it.

But good christ is she incapable of actually discussing anything, either she has seriously deteriorated or it was all some illusion she passed off.

I can only interact with her by basically lying to and manipulating her, and i remain her favorite child to spend time with despite being a fucking terrible person who has caused her nothing but grief. My other two siblings are perplexed and afraid and angry at her, they dont understand you have to just manipulate her, she wants you to.

That woman taught me very well what i had to do to my girlfriends, i am actually thankful for the view of women she gave me, because it made things immensely simple for me once i started dating and realized 'oh lol theyre all like that'

well that felt good to get out

im not quite sure what these frogposts are supposed to mean. hugging or lying in bed unhappy and thinking are not really the feeling i have when thinking about this stuff

mostly i feel a vague disdain for my mother and the women ive dated, though i did at some time love them, i dont really love anymore, it's not something i prioritize so i dont bother with the emotional expenditure it requires.

it just felt good to say all that. ive never really told anyone about how i feel about that stuff, i always lie

i have no interest in writing a book i want to murder a shitload of people, but not in a serial killer way, i just want to kill an immense amount of people who need to be killed

so many people need to get got, i feel it in my fucking bones, that they need their lives ended

somebody has to kill those people, and it would be a perfect union of function and purpose for me to do it.

It is like weeding a garden we have all these people running around being fucking weeds, and i am maybe part weed(some peope even see me as a scumbag but they just dont understand that i am not a scumbag but i just see scumbags and enact against them what they should have done), but also part flower or tree, so i can see them and i know they need to just be ended. God i can't wait for the next violent conflict

I sometimes go out and just find guys who look like scumbags and i befriend them for a bit and have them take me to their bars and meet their people, and i discern their general level of actual weedness, and if they pass a certain threshold i bring them to an alley under a guise of it being a way to a next party, and i beat the shit out them take all their things and throw them in the nearest garbage i find, and it feels so good it's like an orgasm but in my general senses not my dick and pelvic region

we are infected with evil fucking people that need their eyes cut out, yet we baby them, it's insane

i almost blew up on the subway today because i saw this guy who was just breathing his idiocy all over the place like a fog of wrongness, and i wanted to just smack the shit out of him, and then we left at the same station and i got so annoyed by him that i bumped him hard going the way against him, and he turned around and had his stupid 'i am a tough guy' face on, and i became even more infuriated and i pushed him and he got a kind of alarmed look in his eyes and he frowned and then turned and went away

and this guy made me angry for like an entire 10 minutes, until i had a weird experience on the street with these two girls who were babbling about some celebrity who had died and tried to explain it to me, it was something i could not understand so i went away

My point though which i feel is now falling away the longer i write this post, and the more i drink, is that there is a thing which we are, and then a thing which we are not, and there are these constant evil things trying to send me a thing i am not at all, a bad thing, while i am trying to go towards a good thing, and that is the difference

because i dont do bad things

people think i do, but i am always going into the right direction, and i have only ever been attacked by things going in the wrong direction, evil

everything i do is good, except when people obstruct me

if someone kills me it could be a good or a bad thing, it depends on whether they are better or worse than me

but almost everyone i see around me is worse than me so it would be bad.

and about killing myself i know i still have the right idea and will do good, so killing myself would be doing bad, you dont get how this works

i have photographc evidence of me fucking two of them because i thought i could use it as a lawsuit because my dad is a lawyer, they wanted the dick immediately and intensely, they were whores transmogrified into professionals, and they saw me as an exploitable thing, for one of them i was 17 making it actual rape

i am not schizo or psychopath or narcissist, these are ridiculous claims

i love everything and everyone, i am just critical sometimes.

especialy that you would call me a psychopath, i hasve done bad things, but they have always been for a reason, not like them

and finally i have been extensively diagnosed, and they all say im bipolar not your meme ideas

i dont think i am bipolar, i dont think thats eve areal thing, there are more basic categories of things, but that is what they say

personally i think i just like beauty too much and i hate ugliness
