Yes, literally can be done with enough aversion to the senses. Or rather, just be indifferent to the torture. That Vietnamese monk who set himself on fire didn't make a sound.

Not an argument.
If you want to be a mopey misanthrope, that’s your purpose. Just don’t expect much out of it. If you’re so bored you think there’s no reason to live, I disagree, but don’t waste time. Kys or don’t.

farming unironically. small scale for joy, large scale for depression and fear of God. i'd love to have my own house away from the city, small garden, just sit, read, browse, smoke cigar for a while. would like to manufacture stuff using only local stuff too, not sure what yet. maybe bees wax candle since those are expensive af, and bees are good for everyone & their mother.

If you had actually read his essay instead of the quote on the picture, you would have learned how: Arts, Philosophy, and the Sciences. Basically any substantial intellectual activity. But something tells me this doesn't suit you or anyone else in the thread.

Boredom is a symptom of a shitty, soulless existence. To be sure, life is not easy, but people who avoid suffering or are bored when life has so much to offer are not even trying.

So he isn’t all bad, just a creep half the time. Yes, intellectual activity is rewarding too. There are others activities that are rewarding. Does he mention them?

Don't avoid pain, because boredom is solved through pain. Exercise requires pain but increases your sexual attractiveness; this attractiveness can be used to exploit new opportunities. Working hard to get money requires pain, but you will have more fun if you have more money. /lit/ people are couch potato communists so they aren't the best people to emulate if you want to tackle boredom.

And then free drinks
and then sex
and then new job
and then new employee
and then new cult members
and then etc etc where being attractive applies. If you're an academic then getting more money is more efficient at tackling boredom, because it means you get more journal subscriptions. Charisma can help in getting the job to support that.
