I know why DFW killed himself – he saw the ‘thing which subsumes all’ – capitalism, irony, pretension, self-reference, etc – he saw this thing, and knew it to be so, but could not bear to identify his self with that ‘thing which subsumes all’ – all is entangled and devoured by it – reflected infinitely within it with no escape. He lacked the willpower to be that thing, or the heart to be that thing, and instead was subsumed within that eternal spiral.
Many ‘gentle souls’ fall into this trap. The Will is a violatory existence. The Will knowing itself as Will is original sin – position which propels itself through negation, entailing its own negation – a statement of is separating itself from what is. Necessarily, the Will must trample upon other wills – and most cannot take the journey to see this as fact, and still others cannot accept this as fact. We must have a relationship with our existence – both as an artist lovingly forgives his own hand for the imperfection it gives birth to, and as a commander giving the OK to a bombing campaign with a projected 6% collateral casualty rate.

Im about halfway through the first semester of grad school. The graduate coursework is really lopsided at this university so I don't know how I feel about it yet. There are some classes where I'm like "wow, this is fucking graduate level, jesus christ I'm getting left in the dust." and then there are others where the difficulty is as easy or easier than my undergraduate work. I don't know which is worse, because I know if all my coursework was actually at the proper level of difficulty it would be kicking my ass, but I also feel like I'm wasting my time with the coursework that is below my skill level. Hopefully things will get better once I start my thesis, my advisors work is pretty interesting but not my cup of tea, so I don't know how much time I want to devote to working in his research lab. I'm brimming with ideas about what to do my thesis on, I can't wait.

I'm sure this is a misspelling, but the only thing I hate more than the "STEM" acronym is "STEAM," the half-hearted attempt by art teachers to hop aboard the funding wagon. It's not enough that all science has to be reduced to a stupid piece of education industry jargon used to sell shit like common core math and diversity coding camps - now it seems the only art that gets taught in schools is either glorified data visualizations or propaganda about how we need to eat bugs to save the koalas.
Maybe I'm an obsessive nut, but whenever I hear someone casually use terms like "stem" or "stemfag" it makes me despair for the future of intellectual discourse. Can't we afford to be more dignified in our language than the idiot bureaucrats that run the US public school system? Does absolutely everything have to be reduced to a glib acronym?

Every day at work I see this woman who works on my floor walk by my desk. She is essentially a librarian, but for a news company instead of a library. Normally, her hair is blonde, slightly wavy, and shoulder-length. I noticed today that she'd straightened it. A few weeks ago, I walked by her office and saw her name plate: F____ W____. I found her Facebook and Twitter accounts and Instagram and looked at her travel pictures and read her dumb political tweets that received no engagement. I'd like to talk to her, but I have no occasion to. She walks by my desk on the way to the kitchen to get water. I watch her come and then go and that's it.

Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: 2 “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. 3 So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. 4 They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.

5 “Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteries wide and the tassels on their garments long; 6 they love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues; 7 they love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others.

8 “But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. 9 And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. 10 Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah. 11 The greatest among you will be your servant. 12 For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.

I don't get why they call booze liquid courage. To me it is liquid cowardice. It gives me permission do do every filthy thing that comes across my mind, everything that betrays nobility. While true courage is the will to enact the noble even at great risk. Not only does alcohol give me permission to let slither out everything that wriggles in the darker corners of my mind, it makes me do so stupidly and inelegantly. When we act courageously we do so with poise, as if the universe has made us its star for the moment. Alcohol has never roused me to better myself or to break the boundaries which enclose me; rather, it adds another coat of concrete to those boundaries. It is liquid cowardice. Still I like it.

Studying abroad in a European country as an American who has no grasp of the language and no will to learn it. Everyone speaks english when prompted, but only when speaking to me. I've realized business is not the field of study for me but lack the gumption to drop it 2 years in. Met someone on Tinder, did drugs, had sex for the first time and am now suffering the comedown of those drugs. What I thought was the start of an interesting fling has morphed into dead conversation and awkward meetings. Alienated by the international business students who are simple and boring and the europeans who are kind but live in their own worlds. The few friends I have here are busy on the weekends, further isolating me. The hobbies I have are difficult to engage in a foreign country. Currently, I am attempting the solitary lifestyle, reading, writing and being creative but I am naturally an extrovert and get depressed when not around people.

As I come to conclusions easier when I externalize information by taking notes, I actually do try to write down my thoughts regularly.
The written text then functions as a repository of ideas which you can come back to and rewrite.
Thus, in the best case, the text may be ``improve'' over time.
(I put ``improve'' in quotes here because one may just as well fall for a fad or ideology and the rewriting doesn't actually make the text ``better''.
Indeed, text written down like that can make for a dogma, so it's a double-edged sword.)
And I actually very much doubt that ``the right'' philosophy is a notion that makes sense or something you can reach.
But a worldview influences ones own actions and happiness and is thus a crucial thing to develop.
In conclusions, I engage in writing down you thinking, even if it's dangerous.

Religion again, and narcissism. I've heard that we live in a narcissistic culture but the prime examples of this that I've personally seen come from those most resistant to the culture. There are so many toxic insular communities just lying around unseen. You stub your toe on one every now and then. Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormon's, Muslims, Hasidim, Literal discord trannies, neo Nazis, communists, multi level marketers, cults of every form and flavor. People absolutely hate being alone with their thoughts and having to rely on their own abilities and accomplishments. I've known people who's entire life is building up recursive loops of cope and more cope. It's frankly embarrassing, they think they are happy and fulfilled but you can see on their faces how miserable they actually are. Living in bad faith is the norm, not the exception and resentment abounds everywhere. I'm no exception. Religious people need to spend less time in church and more time alone away from people who might legitimize their neuroticisms

It's actually much worse than even the type of stuff brought up in your typical 4chan thread by people who think they understand it. These guys usually have some kind of redpill take on the subject that is still operating along moral lines they aren't really aware they hold. The actual truth of evolutionary pressures is that they're 100% entirely ruthless and every possible manifestation of 'good' in behavior is necessarily an indirect tool used to advance the mindless propagation of genes. If you fully integrate this mindset you arrive at something much more nihilistic than the redpill memes which retain all sorts of bizarrely naive concepts like stoicism, rationalism, honor, etc.

I have no respect at all for secular types who call this perspective edgy, it is literally the only reasonable interpretation of the situation for those without religion.

Did primitive people have good teeth because they had healthier diets, or is it that all the ones with the bad teeth just died out? Probably both, though the latter must've played a greater role. Did our ancestors have higher IQs and better physiques than we? Most likely, but only the ones with access to good nutrition. The average conscript in Napoleon's army was like 165cm tall; hard to imagine how such a malnourished population could've had an average IQ higher than that of the modern French (they might've had the potential to have higher IQs had they had access to more food, but that's another matter). The world involves trade-offs, and we simply can't have it all.

Shitposting is a form of demonic possession. Evil forces on the internet plague your mind and tempt you with the most fleeting of pleasures in a manner that is completely useless and disruptive. It encourages you to taint what others have tried to make sincerely, to poison the wells that others drink from, to burn down the homes of others... and yet, you will never be satisfied. You sacrifice your time and your energy to create the most shallow amusement, an amusement you will not most likely forget instantly while producing nothing at best and a net negative at worst. In your free time, you could be writing, or reading, or otherwise bettering yourself, but instead you spend it degrading yourself, degrading others, or degrading the places you stay. This has created a self perpetuating cycle of poisonous digital self-harm throughout the internet, as those enslaved by the net increasingly fear honesty in self-expression and pursue more extreme ways to prove they do not care for anything. Shitposting is one of the ultimate spiritual plagues of our time, an insincere curse upon ourselves that emboldens self-degradation, bitterness, thoughtless hatred, and spiritual apathy and stagnation, a malaise that harms our self and demands we strike down others as well.

I am starting to wonder if the world would be noticeably different overall had Haile Selassie not been overthrown and Ethiopia not ravaged by communism. Obviously, Africa would be a very different place, but I think the new world and other places with a large amount of black people would have changed. The Ethiopian Empire's ancient history and status of never being truly colonized gave black people all over the globe a degree of pride; in the Americas, it inspired several spirituality movements and had black people develop an identity closer to Africa (as Selassie encouraged them to have pride in themselves and their history, even if he himself said that Ethiopians were not "negroes like new world"). The communist destruction of Ethiopia probably broke the spirits of many people and black culture in the US has become progressively more jaded and pessimistic since. I think, had the Ethiopian Empire survived, some black people would have eventually moved to Africa in noticeable (something Selassie encouraged and he did charter some Rastafarians to live in Ethiopia) and I think Ethiopian Orthodox Christianity might have become an increasingly prominent religion in the new world had Selassie continued to preach it to the people there rather than being distracted by the chaos home.
But this is just a really uneducated take based off of watching some documentaries on Ethiopia and Rastafari.

https://www.britannica.com/topic/STEM-education
>The STEM acronym was introduced in 2001 by scientific administrators at the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF). The organization previously used the acronym SMET when referring to the career fields in those disciplines or a curriculum that integrated knowledge and skills from those fields. In 2001, however, American biologist Judith Ramaley, then assistant director of education and human resources at NSF, rearranged the words to form the STEM acronym.

It's pure bureaucratese. A monosyllabic piece of jargon cooked up by the US government to sell its education policy to school teachers and parents. As far as I'm concerned saying "STEM" instead of "science" is just as reprehensible as saying "content creator" instead of "artist," or "social studies" instead of "history." If you talk like these people you become them.

Furthermore, to just "know" philosophy and literature like a walking encyclopedia smacks of pride at best and a concept similar to pop-science at worst if you're unable to transform and translate it. I believe I'm entitled to give a boundless premise and generalization like so just as you are able to assert how humanity majors supposedly "never" have brilliance, which I hardly believe you'd ever be as interested in philosophy as you claim so much that you 100% understand it better if there was never anything brilliant ever said by those very disciples of the humanities

Legit question, how is China more "undemocratic" than say, the UK? Both have elected legislative bodies. Both have the party select the executive.

For the first time I feel like my writing is suffering from my utter sexlessness. Up until now most of the romantic themes I have dealt with were subtle longing, regret over past loves, etc.- things I could limp by on, by projecting my own inefficiencies. I am currently working on the longest piece I have ever attempted, a novella, and I am incapable of writing the small romance subplot I had planned. My romantic isolation has made me deaf and mute to these loves, I can't even properly imagine what each character would be feeling or saying. All I know on the subject is longing and rejection. I have tried writing the pertinent passages and each time they're so terribly stilted I can't help but delete them. I don't know what do, I can't move forward.
