I am interested in literature, writing, amateur sculpting, film and mycology. Problem is, I am fat, ugly, and balding. So, all my interests are things only attractive people can pull off.

Yesterday I was reading Swann's Way in bed, couldn't fall asleep, rose from my bed and got drunk on moonshine.
I finally went to bed at 3 AM and dreamed of traversing beautiful verdant hills, while a narrator talked about everything I saw.
I remember the way up being very difficult, but when I saw the lush vegetation on top of the hill it was all worth it.
I don't think I've ever had a dream this vivid and enchanting before.

I am self-conscious of wearing stuff like graphic t-shirts in an extremely casual environment of nerds (not derogatory) who do it. Sometimes I want to as I used to do it but I kind of grew out of it because I started becoming an elitist asshole about dressing plainly and now I can't really get out of that mindset.

I have it in my brain that if you're a certain age those things are childish but I'm trying not to give a damn. It's just clothing, right? Who cares? Am I being stupid or some kind of "mature poser?" I feel like I am.

It's a difference of scale. Start dressing like an adult with aesthetic sense.

>>12542152
i don't think they necessarily look bad but i think it's very close. i human form is the medium that clothing work around, and a graphic is suited for sending a message not for working around form
if you're a believer in statement pieces i could see how you'd feel differently though
it should also be said that i think patterns are a bit of a different thing, because people can visually like an inch of the pattern and the rest will fill in, making it a lot less distracting than large, irregular , and expressive "graphics"

I spent the past year building a personal philosophy that is the basis of how I view the world, and it's starting to unravel. Being around my depressed friend is making me (once again) question everything and is making me think I've been deluding myself with my value system, and it's sucking the life out of me.

I'm so fucking depressed. The Pills don't do anything for me; I'm afraid of quitting them in case that isn't true though. Stuck in a meaningless job, updating the prices of various slabs of granite on websites, nothing that won't be completely automated in five years. it's a family business, or I would have been fired (I've purposefully tried to) for being such a bad employee. Parents want me to conform to their fundamentalist Christian lifestyle or move out, don't think I know how to live on my own. Scared of trying to change my situation and failing and ending up worse off than I was before and having to beg for help with my tail between my legs. I know they'll never let me live that down and I'll never hear the end of it. All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way. My whole life is pretty much escapism, try to spend every waking moment in front of some screen so I don't have to think about my future. Thought I was trans for a year and a half and talked to a doctor about it, turns out it was just more escapist fantasies, hated being who I am so much started dissociating from my self and body. I used to do long distance running and that helped, i could turn off my brain and just exist, but i overdid it and permanently injured my knees which really sucks. Not even interested in relationships anymore after dating a single person for a month, just don't like being alone with people. At least I live by a big mall I can walk around during the weekends, it's always fun to see all the different types of people and how happy they look.

I started playing Pokémon Go again, it makes me happy whenever I find a good statted Pokémon.

I’m trying to learn to accept myself, but I’m not really sure what that means. Also the idea of self reflection or introspection, does that just mean talking to myself? It all seems strange, I always have a much easier time talking through my problems if I think someone is listening. I might go see a therapist.

I'm now heavily leaning towards staying in Japan for one year instead of two for several reasons. First because I feel one year is more than enough time to see and experience everything I want to do in this country. Second because there are several hassles to life here that I don't think I can get used to and can put up with for just one year but probably not for much longer beyond that. Third because it's nice to be close to friends and family, and the things you're used to back home and moving to the other side of the world has given me a greater appreciation of them. Though I love traveling to other countries, one year is more than enough time to be away from home. Fourth because I need to figure out what I could do for a job back in the states and staying here a second year just seems like it'd do nothing but put that off.

Not that I regret coming here at all. I'm looking forward to spending the rest of the year here and getting to know the country and discovering everything I can about it. In fact, I feel as though I've grown and matured a great amount in the short two months I've been here already. There are also maybe 2 or 3 other countries I might like to live in for a while at some point in my life but that's for to worry about at some later point in the future.

She hates parties, alcohol, is outdoorsy, likes books, is pretty traditional and loves to cook for me.

There once was a man from Ipanema. Actually it was a lizard. The lizard was green, but everyone who looked at it went colour blind. Green was the last colour they ever saw. So they called the green lizard Green the lizard. Eventually the whole world went colour blind. One man, a painter, who liked colours, got upset and grilled the lizard on a stick next to a campfire. He then ate the lizard. The man then went back to Ipanema, because that was where he was from..

When I try to write my novel, I go to sleep and have dreams where I'm being fucked by my characters. It doesn't matter whether or not they're female or male, I'm always the bottom. I feel my body burn in lust while they dominate me and edge me on while I'm bound and unable to push myself away. I'm not very lucid when I dream so I don't even know how to get away from their grasp. They just keep fondling me, kissing me, and sometimes my body moves on its own and I force myself onto my characters. Then, when I wake up, I don't want to write anything about these characters because I saw them in a sullen form, a disgusting and terrible visual, where we engage in the worst sins imaginable.
The pale, nymph-like virginal character? My dreams warped her into a lusting forceful succubus. The agoraphobic hyperreligious maniac who appears sadistic but only wants what he considers best for humanity? He's a kind and sweet lover. The brazen and headstrong go-getter? Passionate and fierce with the ability to make my body wake up in spasms of heat and euphoria. Along with that in my dreams, I can find no solitude, no refuge from the world around me, all these evil forces grabbing my body, forcing me into these sinful deeds, allowing me to experience love when I have no real interest in it in my daily waking life. I don't want these people to be real. They're all in my head. Yet occasionally I'll fall asleep to the sounds of children from the abyss of my mind, reaching out with their grimy little hands, clawing themselves out of my subconscious as if they're calling for me. Calling for me to join them, to experience what life is like not being in the solitude I've gotten so used to. Dragging me below like a kraken until I'm drowning in the insanity and the voices of the hivemind that connects all of humanity.
I don't want this. Leave me alone, demons. How dare you corrupt my fictional characters, practically my children, my only friends, with your fiendish evil.

Are you seriously sperging that hard because a 18-19 girls that seemed innocent turned out not to be a complete virgin ? Is this the level of self-awareness and maturity you've achieved at this point in your life ?

Just reread your post ffs. With the two first paragraphs I was exepecting something serious like she's a former porn actress or has STD or has cucked you or whatever. Nope, it turns out you're simply you're not her first ride, or even her third, what does it matter. People have sex, it's part of life, barring illnesses it's even relatively clean nowadays.

As a wise anon once put it

>at some point you'll have to grow up, and accept that other people have sex lives and that you are not your country's national deflowerer

Ahd whatever you may believe that kind of situation was extremely common even in more "traditional" eras. So you're not only lacking maturity but also awareness of history. I suggest reading more and consuming social media less.

TL;DR: You're crying over a non-issue, get over yourself

You bring interesting. The first I should say is that history is complicated, in any big enough event there will be contadictory even, but you have to see how the solid weights compared to the dubious.

For instance do you believe in the purges under Stalin, and who do you think is primarily responsible for them ? After all there were a lot of frabricated document and forced confession in that era (and it could go both sides since not only the Russians, but also the CIA could be tempted played with evidence). And there controversy about wether Krouchtchev, who was the first to expose the purges, was actually the main responsible and blamed Staline to cover his ass.

This is just an example to show it's not surprising to have contradictory accounts, and it's good (even necessary) to have doubt, but it has to be commensurate with the level and general consistency (or lack thereof) of the evidence.

> ie hundreds of SS guards giving confession while all having identical precise cuts on their genitals
> wooden doors on gas Chambers

Those two seem indeed fishy, though not necessarily an indication that there was no attempt at genocide. Where did you get them from, and when were there produced ?

> transfer between alleged death camp (how does that make any sense?)

Remember they were not not only death camps but concentration camps were people did forced labor, particularly towards the end of the war, as nazi germany could less and less afford to squander workforce. Primo Levi even mentionned he was lucky to get taken in 1941 at a time when able-bodied men were not so easily sent to the chambers. Camps dedicaed only to extermination were rarer, the only example I know of is Treblinka. If you wonder why we get less testimonies from those "pure death" camps, that's precisely because people were much less likely to come out of them alive. We still have a few account from Sonderkommandos who managed to get out though.

I have myself no settled opinion about it, and perhaps I don't care that much since the incarceration part and the fact that millions died is pretty much uncontroversial and should be enough for a lay person.

>hospital and maternity wards in death camps

It's not o surprising there would be infirmaries of some sort if some of the prisoners were expected to work. Maternities are more surprising, it'd be good to know what the prisoners and captors said about this.

>authors confessing that they made up stories about their imprisonments

You can expect people to jump on any bandwagon that will allow them to receive attention and compassion. You have to look at testimonies (not only confessions, the whole body of available testimonies, and gather others if you can) and see how much of it hold up.

>>12556740
>We know that the IDF uses mass produced and immediately available pornography to control the Palestinian population

Never heard of anything like it despite many conversations with people from /pol/ so I'll have to be a bit doubtful about this. I wouldn't put that kind of dirty tricks past Tsahal of course, army are gonna be armies, but it still seems a stretch (and besides that how do you even "control" an hostile population with pornography ?).


> why would you not make a connection to pornhub being openly controlled by Jews?

Why would you, or more precisey what would you consider that connection factual (I can make connections with anything, but they're not substantial most of the time) ? That seems like quite a jump, even though it is of course not impossible. This is not just about ideology, but more about methodology, how do you convincingly tie those two statements assuming both are etablished ?


>There are way, way too many coincidences that you would have to ignore to come to the conclusion that Jews aren't intentionally trying to undermine western Civilization

This is the biggest jump of them all. Not to mention "Jews" as a group is not so well-defined that you'd imagine, and that if it can be defined at all, by and large it's a groupe that has mostly benefitted from being part of "Western Civilization" (again, depends on where you draw the borders) and has little interest in destroying it.

Your answer mostly confirmes the impression I had. You should be wary of the internet (particularly the echo chambers were people are pushing a narrative, one way or another) and try to contact people who actually investigated the matter.

i hate the lack of permanence in things. not particularly death - which i've already made my peace with and don't really care about - but things in life. i feel like a wild, neurotic idiot, but i constantly am worrying about everything i own going up in flames fight club style. it makes me cycle between wanting to get rid of it all and go live in a monastery and be an ascetic, and equating my life to living on hardcore ironman mode and only having rights to things as long as i have the means to protect them. america has the idea of "property", but that won't really stop anyone from fucking with you, including the government even.
i'm not even particularly materialistic, my apartment is very sparse and even my only friend who doesn't give a shit about this sort of thing said "wow, holy shit" when he saw how austere and barren it was. i just don't like the idea of losing what little i do choose to have.
this goes for notebooks too, i feel very naked writing down my thoughts in them since anyone can just pick it up and piece through it. i don't particularly trust my computer enough to write there either. plus, if my notebook went missing, there goes years of thoughts, ideas, everything.
i don't know why i'm like this really or why i can't break out of this seemingly benign thought loop, but it's really been bothering me for a lot of my life. people just thought i was a clean freak or had ocd or something, but i'm really just preparing for the time all my shit gets fucked. everything in its place.

/catharsis

Today sadness, depression hit me particurally hard and I have beem moody all day.
A few days ago I joined a Discord group of people I'm which I'm too ashamed to admit, but I entered expecting to make some friends, maybe get a romantic partner, but honestly I did not have high expectatives, I was propelled by my curiosity and degeneracy. But when lust fade away, I ended craving for friendship. I quickly realized how much I did not fit, that I did not belong, probably listening to Radiohead isnt a good choice today, but it's so cathartic it eases the pain a little.
I have this thing of mine that, despite being a friendless vrigin, yet somewhat functional man in society, and nobody seems to notice, or care, I dont really care that much which one is the case. These last years I have been trying to reach out to make new friends, but I realized I desire to make true, honest friends, bonding with people that I actually feel a connection and that genuinally care for eachother. I dont enjoy making these brief, vapid, meaningless 'friend' contacts people seems to do all the time, it's not something I'm good at it, it's not honest, it's not genuine, it doesnt come from my soul. Anyways, this wasn't the case with that Discord group and left without a warning, although I checked if someone messaged me asking why I left the group.
Nobody messaged me. Deep inside I expected it, I dont think these people really care, and that it's good that nobody noticed my departure, but that still deepened the hole inside, for nobody really cared, and even though I was trying to convince myself otherwise, turns out I was right, and it hurts so much when you have such low social expectations, yet they turn to be correct. I dont hate people, them, in particular, nor people in general, I actually understand why people act that way, I dont judge, but it still sucks.
The one genuine online friendship I made the last 2 years, with a young troubled femboy, after a bumpy ride, very bumpy ride of emotions, through my, at least what I believe, my advice and guidance, and his own determination, he changed his life for the best, and even got a gf and he's very happy about it, and I'm happy about it, and proud.
But since then, we talk less, and less, at first I ignored it, but days passed, weeks passed, months, and I started to get bothered, upset, we talked and he said I was overreacting and that I should calm down, I did, but also said we should talk again to refresh the oh so special friendship we had, that we both needed so much. Deep inside I knew I was wrong and that nothing would change.

>> No.12562204

I was right, days, weeks, months passed, we talked again, same deal, this time I snapped, and snapped pretty bad, I got genuinally angry, because I was deeply saddened and hurt, in fear I'd lost a genuine friend. I got angry because I genuinally care, yet is other special thing that slips from my grip. Same outcome as before, we did a promise we would eventually not keep. I didnt believe it anyways.
Yet again, I was right, third time the charm. I realized the problem is not the boy, it's me. So I started to slowly mentally detaching myself from him, is something I hate because emotionally detaching from people, slowly cutting bonds will inevitably isolate myself from people in the long run, something that I'm avoiding to happen. For my own good sake. I start to detach because at this rate I will become a burden of the young lad, and becoming a burden is the last thing I want, I dont want to be a dead weight, thus, yet again I isolate myself. I'm miserable, but I dont want to make the people around me miserable. It's not right.
While I dont get angry anymore, nor really getting that upset anymore, it feels horrible because I can feel a vacant space in my mind, somewhere it used to be cheerfull, vivid emotions, now it's empty, void, dark, cold; it's depression making itself even more deeper. I'm aware of it, but I cant fight it, or if I can, I have given up, and I hate myself so much for giving up, for being so incompetent, for not meeting my own fucking standarts, how much of a fuck up I possibly can be, how many times I will lie to myself, how many times I will let myself down. How many times I will end proving my inner pessimist right. I hate all of this, I hate myself. I feel dead and more dead inside with every passing day. I can feel it, I try ignore it, but I know it's there, slowly, patiently creeping in the back of my mind.
As much of a miserable fuck I am, I'm not suicidal, or at least I don't feel like it, or maybe I fool myself of it. Irrelevant. The little damming comfort I get, is my family, my parents genuinally care for me, and love me, I have been very lucky to have been raided in the good way, the only exception in so many fucked up kids I meet, that I have been given the mental, and reasoning tools to think and expressing in this way. I'm very thankfull for it.
Damming comfort because, I'm 23 and I feel myself as an underachiever, no friends, no girlfriend ever, still a virgin, failing universitary career, decent and easy going, but low wage job that it's just temporal and that wont carry me through life, yet I'm too lazy and comfortable to leave it. Every year people from my family ask me how I did, and do this year, I say 'I'm doing good'. I lie. At times, when I just stay late playing vydia all night, or the fact I'm still at my parents house. that I never go out with friends in weekends, not even having friends in the first place, I can feel in my parents eyes, I can see it.

Sadness and disappointment. And that, has to be the most emotionally crushing sensation I have ever concieved. Let down myself is one thing, let down the only 2 people that have raised me, love me and care for me all these years, is another. Doom, and despair; and the two words most fitting for the situation. Doom and Despair. I try my hardest, my best, nor for myself, but for them, for the few people that genuinally care for me, I wont take my own life for as long I have people still counting on me, and if I die, I want to be forgotten, cause nobody grief, nor pain. Everything I do, I do for others; a comforting though is dying protecting the ones I love, a worthy way to go out. But I wont, wont allow myself to take such luxury. It's not my right, nor it's right.
A voice in my head says, 'You're 23, you're still young, stop being such a little bitchfaggot and man the fuck up'. Who would have think that, a though derived from 4chan, being the voice of reason. Amusingly ironic. But then I promptly think, it's normal to be this pathetic, this miserable in such young age? This grief is not just a passing angst, common from adolescense, it's a brooding though and sensation that have been slowly growing through the last years, it's not something transient, it's something real, solid, almost tangible within my mind, it's there to stay. That's not normal, isn't it? Does other younglings suffer this affliction? Relief, I'd feel, if turns out this was the case, and that I'm not special, that I'm just being a little bitch and that I should shut the fuck up and grow a pair.
But years has passed. And it stays, it grows, it beholds, it waits, it's there. I do my best to ignore it, but sometimes I fail. I dont know how to fight it, how to face it, I just dont know how. I need older wisdom. I need guidace.
Also depression is killing any willpower and drive to improve myself, to learn new trades and skills, because deep inside I think I'm 'Doomed', thay nothing will change, no matter how hard I try, it will be the same. Yet, somewhere in my soul, there is this naive, shard of light, hope, delusion if you will, for things to get better. I have yet to prove it possible.

Anyways, lately have come with lots of ideas for fantasy stories, I got the setting, I got the characters, part of the story, but it's always the biggest problem, I cant come up with original names, specially if that fantasy setting is 'tolkien-eske', trying to not being mediocre and uninspired. I have this race of beastfolk, half beast and half human, and I cant, even to save my own hide, come up with fucking original names because I'm a talentless hack, and it's irking me beyond words, as a matter of fact if I cannot come with original names and denominations, I might just trash the whole story just because of it, which is beyond idiotic, and I'm aware of it. I also abhor it.
I also have this other story pseudo horror, a mix of mediaval fantasy story meets existencial horror, Lovecraft-eske, but I simply lack of the plenty descriptive vocabulary he had, and it's super hard to be awfully descriptive, without being repetitive, specially if you're not a native english speaker. Godamm it.
Lastly, as dumb as it might sound, I'm seriously considering writting down all these feelings, emotions and thoughs on a book. I dont know why, but I feel like I should.

I know this is not /lit/, and probably I'm gonna get banned for it, that's fine, but I needed to write this massive clusterfuck wall of text, catharsis always helps.
I dont expect a response from this, or an actual good response for that matter, but if you have read all this autism, I'm just gonna say: Thank you.

I understand you anon. I'm just taking one day at a time, lying to my friends about how I feel, hoping that it'll all eventually sort itself out in the end. Literature and alcohol are the only ways I can cope with the monotone world I live in at university. Wake up at 2pm. Eat lunch at 3. Watch lectures until 6. Drink. Watch more lectures. Make dinner at 8. Drink. Go out. Pass out. Wake up at 2. Repeat.

Honestly, university is a joke. I go to one of the best in the country, yet I still feel like the teaching quality is awful and that we as students ar not pressured to learn anything at all.

There is a thing called tolerance. When I get high for the first time in a while I think about very morbid shit. I was trying to design a prison built on a coast that would stack inmates in vertical cages with bars for floors, and execute problem inmates on its lowest level by allowing high tide waters to run in through sluicing mechanisms in the walls and floors. I did this for about three hours before I said "holy shit why on earth am I doing this."

I have lost ever good intention I once had. It is hard to find an outlet with which to propel oneself toward a desperate chance of finding sanity. It lingers like a dust mote caught in a ray of light. It is as carefree and unbound by worldly concerns as the particle of dust. But that mote contains your essence, your very all and as quickly as it was found, it is lost.

My immediate concerns are few, they hold more sway over me, but not in the same way my unnamed malaise does. Depression is as good a name as any for it, albeit softened by hypochondriacs and charlatans. Real, depressive peril does not feel like an endless water well, however small in the distance. It is an open doorway into the world one wishes they lived in. The only problem is the intractable nature of one’s legs. No matter the desire, inspiration or need to try, you will not walk into the world of your healing.

You will not step forth and make amends, you will carry it unto death sees fit to release you into the cherished bosom of purgatory, the five star hotel of a mendicant’s release.

With what other illness does idleness of emotions become a deadly symptom? Why do questions and only questions supplant all of my mental computing power? Will an answer ever see fit to grace my mind, and if it does, will it be the right one?

How does one begin to move away from this kind of existence? Can a subtle change to my person constitute any meaningful redirection of the sadness, anger and unrelenting confusion about everything in your life? Does it start by severing all contact to everything you know?

One must do the emotional arithmetic!

- Is happiness, however fleeting, enough to distract me from my other woes?
- Will getting rid of said happiness ease me towards the shores of sanity, or cast me further into the ocean of oblivion?
- Can happiness or even a calming influence be found away from all that you know?
- Will you be better if you do all of this?

I am too afraid to answer even my own metric. I know the answer, truly, my sub and conscious self duking it out for primacy. I know who will win and what the outcome will be in the morning.
Nothing will have changed.

And I will still feel the draw, the same force the moon exerts upon the Earth. It will not regulate the ocean of my mind, it will lash it with Typhoons and drown it, as that is the way to quiet my mind, to drown my soul.

Despite my anguish and uneasiness which the cruel phantasmagoria inflicts on me, I know God loves. I never held a girls hand before because im a loser but yesterday in the dark blanket of darkness, I held hands with a girl who is, to my eyes far more innocent and beautiful than I. The night, which invited a billion lovers to love has granted me courage and it will continue to provide its divine providence to many billion to come. If my leap of faith to hold a girls hand was so pleasurable and joyous, how great must be the love of God for me, and when through God's election and faith, divine love is reciprocated again, how ineffably ecstatic must it be? ..all we need is love in all its forms..

I went to Catholic schooling and they said that even If you follow all of God's commandments and live a virtuous life, we can only hope that you went to Heaven. This and a number of other trivial grievances led me away from religion, but I never parted from the idea of God.

I have no enmity towards religion, but most of the Bible has lost its sacred impact, especially the Old Testament. The one major exception has been Job. I look to that book more than any other one. In it, God comes down in a whirlwind and rips Job apart for asking what are the rewards for the just. I love it because God does not make a baseless guarantee of eternal life and happiness beyond all imagination. God demands that we find it in our souls to be just for no other reason than that it is just to be so. This is an edict that is impossible for the proud to follow. It requires you to accept that you are entitled to nothing for you good works.

I never said that I did not believe in an afterlife, I simply asked why I should care. Its existence should have no impact on the way I live my life. People who live life like a to-do list to get an eternal reward will one day have to stand in Job's place before the whirlwind.

I understand the feeling that there is no way for you to stand up, but you can still ask for help. They can take you from under your arms so you legs are dangling, barely scraping the ground. They won't ask you to walk just yet. First you would need to move your feet, wiggle your toes; feel the blood flow back into parched capillaries. Your soles return to the ground and with the support of a helper you take your first step in a long time. Then, another and even more after that til you walk through the door on your own.

You don't need to walk right now, you need to call out for help.
