I hate myself, and this hatred causes me to hate others, so my entire life is basically just a cycle of hating myself, redirecting this hatred at other people, and then redirecting back at me.

I honestly think if someone came up behind me one day while I was walking down the street and shot me in the head, he should not go on trial for murder, I don't think it should be counted as murder, if anything I see it as euthanasia. It's not like my life would end up any better.

I really am starting to feel like the best life is the one that is the seemingly most mundane. Being able to have a family, some friends and neighbors who you can walk to greet, being near nature, having an honest form of work, enjoying celebrations from time to time... I think these are the most valuable things. No wisdom for the sake of wisdom. Even if we can't live like this right now, I feel like it should at least be an ideal. Maybe we will make it.

I think I'll miss the whole covid lockdown world. A sad fact is that my lifestyle was not gravely disrupted by it. Sure I lost touch with some people. My world closed around me tighter, but the noose was already around my neck. What difference does it make? I got a bit chubbier but such things happen. I'm certain that my interpersonal development was hampered by it. I lost a few budding friendships, some romantic prospects flew to the four corners. Everyone retreated inwards.

The weight of all that is balanced against what I got in return. As if I suddenly awoke in a communist utopia, the government started to just give me money, which in turn enabled to me dispense my energies on projects of my choosing than alienated labor toward some futile yet paying task. The result is that I was nearly able to write an entire book in the span of a year, a privilege normally available to the select.

When I did finally get a job, remote work made life incalculably less painful. Not only is grift easier, since there is no boss to peer over your shoulder and it doesn't matter when it gets done so long as it gets done, but the brutality of the morning commute is eased for someone like me who is a habitual night owl. I can only imagine how skewed academic test results must be during the pandemic; there must also be a pandemic of cheating.

I fully recognize that were the lockdown to continue, not only would society be brought to the fevered brink, but my own decay would reach unsustainable levels. But I'll be damned if I have not found freedom in this imprisonment, discovery in exile, strength in weakness, gain in loss.

I dont have a well defined personality therefore i end up unconsciously "taking" other people/characters traits and mannerisms.

Normies were devastated, but I simply returned to a period of my life when nothing was happening and it was fundamentally impossible for me to make anything happen. I am no stranger to isolation, uncertainty, stress, the brutal indifference of the universe. To me it felt like others were given a taste of what was for me familiar and long imbibed poison. It felt like I was stringing up an old pair of boots.

The circumstances of the pandemic certainty did not aid my personal development. It jabbed right into barely scabbed over wounds. Despite the subtle rot, it gave me an excuse to channel my hyper-attuned and singularly focused mind toward the task of invention. I've always tried to expand the wealth my inner experience in proportion to the resistance of the shrinking poverty of my outer experience, and because of this the result of the pandemic was an almost full actualization of my intellectual and literary powers.

There's an art to it. You need to learn how to read the (metaphorical) room. Learn your bosses routines. If you use a productivity tool like slack, always make sure you are logged in and that your computer does not go to sleep, so that it gives the impression you are at your desk. If your boss is away from slack/some other app, this is a good signal to make a move. Keep an eye on your calendar for scheduled events. If the coast is clear, proceed with your intentions. Your boss can only evaluate you at discrete intervals, during "stand ups" or some other sort of checkin event. This means that you can budget your time around these events, which are often scheduled. Unless you have stood out as suspicious and they ask to check in aperiodically, weave in and out of these checkin sessions. Learn the leadership style of your bosses. Are they a hardass or are they more hands on? Give it some time to learn their patterns.

Also, the metrics of productivity are obscured by the digital interface. So long as you can make some data point increment +1, that is all your boss will see. They have no means of detecting whether you actually did something productive. They are just looking at data metrics, independently of any tangible qualitative results. At least that is, not until the deadline comes around. Always crunch before the deadline. You cannot avoid the pain of labor; you can only distribute it over time, lightly here, here and there, and heavily on Thursday.

Also, it depends what kind of job you are doing. Not all remote work is the same. So long as I have something to show for it at the end of the week, nobody complains. I claim my 8 hours a day, even though realistically I never work in continuous 9-5 chunks but sometimes in the day and sometimes in the evening. In fact I get most done late at night. Other jobs prevent this option because people need you then and there.

Personally, I like to challenge myself on the job and do not actively seek opportunities to do nothing. However, when there is reason to do so I have no regrets.

I want life to have real meaning, and because it doesn't, I alternate between living inside my own mind, devoting myself to a better world that may never come, and that I can only get intimations of in rare moments, and being bombarded by fragments of other people's lives, which I don't identify with and can't understand, but can sometimes feel, in a way that is never satisfying and only makes me sad and a little envious. Today was the first day that felt like spring so people were out everywhere, and I was trying to make sense of what it's like to be inside their worlds. If I were like them I could envy them straightforwardly, as having what I want but don't have. If I were totally unlike them I wouldn't notice them. Somehow I'm caught in between the two extremes.

Sometimes I listen to trashy pop music that I imagine basic bitches listen to, and it floods me with a thought process that goes something like, this is a basic world of movie magic romance and normie adventures where everything makes sense from start to finish, no it doesn't that doesn't exist, it's a Hollywood illusion sold to normies, but then, they think it exists, so it sort of does exist for them? So do I envy it or not? Is what they experience a simulation, or a fragment, or a reflection through a glass darkly, of a way of life that used to be and could be again? Is that the way of life I want to help create, justifying my exclusion from these fragments and distorted after-images of it? Maybe, at least my sacrifice and dedication could contribute in some small way to restoring the full, real, original version of what Hollywood and pop music now only sell to normies in pre-packaged tatters.

On days like today it's the worst. When I think of how much there is left of spring and the summer to come I feel a mixture of fear and resignation.

Yes, I somewhat I agree and I came to this idea from almost the complete opposite line of thinking. I’ve always felt like life, normal, daily life, was kind of boring and just not enough. Hell, that’s probably why I started reading so much in the first place. The thing is when you really take in as big of a picture of the world as possible and you’re unsatisfied with what you see, the proper reaction then is not to withdraw from the world but actually bring the bigger world down to the level of interpersonal relationships and the world of immediate, even domestic life. You know? We live in a time where people are concerned so much about things like climate change and yet they think so little about their daily life and perhaps their romantic partners. If you see the greater world around you in a way that’s almost apocalyptic, and characterized by feelings of helplessness, inertness, swarming and buzzing, like I do, like many of us do the only thing you can do is accept that heroism isn’t on the table in that world so narrow your scope.

I'm getting on the mech, "Pew-pew-pew!" says Lapilou, the evil bad guy, as he takes great strides to confront me. "You won't succeed in your dastardly plans, Lapilou!" I cry. In the meantime, my mech is emitting sounds of metal clashing against metal as it struggles to get on his feets. Inside, the pod is revolving at great speed and the available weapons are being displayed inside of a blue box in my peripheral vision.

[Rocket Launcher - Left Shoulder], [SMG - Left Arm]

[Brand New Weapon detected! [Diggy-diggy-dong - Right Arm], do you wish to take the [Diggy-diggy-dong - Right Arm] as your primary weapon?]

I gather my thoughts with great difficulty to select the rocket launcher. 'Please, not the diggy-diggy-dong, oh God, please, not the diggy-diggy-dong..." I mumbled, unable to fight the almost conspiring curiosity of discovering this new weapon.

A mental click resounds through the hull of the mech, followed by a sound of triumph transmitted by the user interface directly to my ears.

[Primary weapon of choice, [Diggy-diggy-dong - Right Arm] has been selected!]

I clenched my knuckles furiously as I tried to select another weapon in urgency but caught off guard by a smug Lapilou, now a few meters away, "You're dead, MOP! No one can save you here, no special weapon, no... Wait, is that a diggy-diggy-dong? How on earth is that possible?! The production was stopped years ago!" he cries, his body already launched in the airs and his [Bling-Bling Sword of Bling] thrown out.

"We can resolve this without weapons, Lapilou, please stop!" I ask of him imploringly. The brightness in the pod suddenly increased and another system message popped out immediately after,

[Weapon equipped.]
[Enemy near area of attack. Main user is not ready. Last Breath Mode Activated.]

"No!" I cry.

I could see Lapilou glaring at me through the spotted cameras, and in the next moment, he fell dead.

------ TEST POST: DO NOT READ ------

I haven't met a person I could relate to in years. And that isn't their fault. It's my own. I don't like the person that I have become.

The universe is a cruel place. I always thought that I could create something meaningful here. But I don't think I can. I should have chosen an ordinary life. I still could, to be honest. But I am to proud to just marry and have children. I'm afraid of that, too.

There was a girl in my high school class. We met in 5th grade or so. I thought she was cute. She liked me, too. We used to sit next to each other and pass notes. Over the next three years or so, we grew very close.
She eventually asked me if I wanted to be her boyfriend. I turned her down. She was trouble, really. She transferred into another class.

About four years ago, we met again at a party. It was so uncomfortable. She still liked me, and she made it obvious. So I just excused myself, and left without saying goodbye.

I often still wonder what would have happened if I had just gone with it back then. Sad! I'm in my mid-twenties, and I still think about some girl that liked me in high school. Who the fuck cares about what happens in high school? Then again, my dad met my mom in high school.

And since then, I've pretty much given up. I ghosted all my friends months ago. I haven't had sex in 4 years. I've been to a psychiatric hospital 4 times.
I go to my wagecuck job and nothing ever happens. What am I supposed to do with my life? My therapist says I should get out more. But I don't know what to do outside. I throw myself from one passion onto the next.

It's all clowed. It has nothing to do with "the world". It has nothing to do with "SJWs" or the "mainstream media". I am what is wrong with my world. I have created my own hell. I don't think I can get out anymore. I think I need to sleep.

They had to go and make us speak certain ways, think certain ways, and even robbed us of chances that might make it worth it, like, I don’t know, meeting your wife at work or something.

Gotta write two assignments tomorrow but they're pretty short. The challenge will be how to have enough things to say to reach the required length, since I will be commenting on articles that are very heavy on statistical methods and I am not trained at all in statistics. It seems almost like witchcraft to be honest, the wya they can get all these angles out of the data. The results are always pretty interesting, but then you look at the methods and you end up somewhat doubting that a single question in a survey can really capture "voter trust". Idk it has an allure, I could modify my degree to include a semester of statistics and become one of the quants but it seems a bit narrow all things considered, at least if you can only boast one full semesters worth.

In other news I both feel I have moved forward and backward. I have complained in these threads before that I may be becoming a heretic, and that remains the case but I still have a feeling and a drive that this is all somehow intended by God. I think, possibly, that I have began thinking about what Buddha called "neither-being-nor-non-being". If that is true, then according to buddhist teachings I am coming along well on the path.

I think I need to come up with a present to give a friend for his wedding. We aren't close friends, I feel somewhat distant from him some times and I didn't expect him to invite me. I have never met his fiancé.

One thing I've thought of recently is what could constitute a difference between daoism and abrahamic religion. In daoism you are encouraged to be humble because the dao is supremely humble (causing and sustaining all, it is still so lowly that you can hardly even know it is there). in abrahamic religion you are encouraged to be humble because compared to God you are nothing, while God is supremely Great. So in the daoist version you emulate the character of the dao, which to me seems to imply a seeking for one-ness, while in the abrahamic you admit the impossibility of emulating Gods greatness, which seems to imply an admission of separation. This is not a small difference, if it actually holds (I could have just forgotten something in scripture that could change things).

I believe I am about to be hit on by a woman I find tremendously desirable but who I do not think would make a good wife, and I really don't know how I will react.

That's roughly what's on my mind.

it is possible to make an idol out of guilt. I have. it made me judge myself severely, and ultimately made me hold other people to the same standard to which I held myself, which made me callous and hurtful. I don't know your story or anything really. I think it can be fair and right that one feels rotten over something one has done, but it can go too far. It can feel like it's safer to be more punishing of oneself, just in case, maybe even in order to protect others from oneself. But in my experience it has to end at some point.

I have had several things published: a few poems and a few short stories. I largely do not derive any value from /wg/ other than when I see the thread it's a reminder that I really should be writing.

I do not derive a lot of value from /lit/ these days in general because I have done a ton of reading thanks to both my undergraduate and graduate degrees, and also because fun, interesting writers do not typically pop up on /lit/ these days before I have heard of them. /lit/ introduced me to Gene Wolfe, Borges, and Pessoa, and for that I am immensely grateful. But it's been a long time since a writer I had not heard of was popular on /lit/.

I am largely here these days for the benefit of others. I come to /lit/ not to get anything out of it myself, but in the hopes that perhaps I can help others, given the extensive reading and scholarship and experience I now have.

Mostly you need to make the skill you are trying to learn very relevant to you. Cover the music you listen to, work on your own riffs, learn more about history of guitar and guitarists. Part of the problem is that you must convince yourself that what your investing in is worth the energy which it demands. Some are driven by money, others by excellence and others by impressing their friends in a discord chat.

>Why can't I enjoy anything to the point of wanting to excel at it?
One obvious reason is that you're treating it as a competition. Some people can work with this mindset, some people can't. The people who can't, like yourself, set yourself up for failure by viewing something as competitive, because at the deep subconscious level your mind sees the activity as a punishment rather than a reward. So deep down, you start to view playing guitar, even practicing, as a punishment and something to "get through" rather than something that is enjoyed in itself. No doubt, changing this attitude of competitiveness is not easy and requires a sustained meta-psychological effort to recondition your view of the world. LSD could help if you're open to that, but it's not necessary if you know what you're doing.

It's just sexy to knead and fondle and fool around with their bodies. I had a Mexican girlfriend once with a big butt and it was fun to play around with her buttocks and watch them slosh and jiggle.

Also dated a fat girl once, and it was super fun when she'd ask me to lay on her big belly. She had great big breasts and I'd bat them around and play with them while she giggled. Fat girls are super wonderful and don't let anyone tell you different.

>tl;dr books about accepting death
My cat is 20 years old and it's dying. The only thing he does is lying on his blanket and moaning. The vet told me his organs are already failing and he has about a week of life. His eyes are so white and without any light, I don't believe he can see anymore. I'd really like to read something interesting about a character who learns that he's dying and has to accept that - it can be on a positive view like "I've wasted my time so now that I'll die I have to compensate for that", but I'd rather be something more mundane and philosophical.

a possibility is that God truly is non-descript, but that man is specifically made to love Him, so that when man rests upon Him he is granted peace. That leaves the question of why God would manifest a creation of a certain character, but it would resolve the paradox of Gods transcendence-while-manifest-in-attributes.

Throughout my social life there's been an odd pattern: it's hard to make friends with other guys, yet women warm up to me almost immediately. It's not a sexual attraction, but an openness that may transition to romance if I develop it. In other words, the struggle to "get" women most guys have never happens, though I suck at making male friends in return. I used to think it might be down to looks, but recently I've tried making friends in my target language and the same exact pattern has happened. The guys I spoke to have kind of lost interest but the girls were the opposite, in this case even before I knew they were a girl. It's weird man

One thing it could be is that you listen more than you share. This isn't always the case but a lot of people who have that pattern could tell you a lot about their friends but their friends would fail the newly wed game with them in return. Like if you know how many siblings they have and they don't know the same, chances are what makes them comfortable is they're mostly talking about themselves so it's not really a relationship with another person.
The opposite can happen too, where they know a lot about you but you know little about them, and they like you because they've got no skin the game, and produce the same effect, but I think it's more likely to be the former case if it is about an investment imbalance.

Yeah, that makes sense. That trait is probably one of the biggest advantages if you want to make a lot of friends, especially if you're not super attractive or have some trait that makes everyone gravitate to you otherwise.

I am kinda shit at that though. Anyway there's one event that stands out in my mind about this. In senior year of high school I changed schools right at the start, and was depressed so I talked to almost nobody the whole year. In English this really cute short-haired brunette sat behind me, and she put her feet on my chair sometimes but otherwise we didn't really interact. Well, on the last day of that class after the exam everyone went outside since the teachers were serving us a snack. I sat down by a tree in the shade to read something (Heart of Darkness maybe) and that girl came over with her friend and invited me to play frisbee. Shortly after, she said she was leaving and said she'd drive me home. Like an idiot, I said no (I believed it would count as an absence, and I was already pushing it on that front so I thought I'd fuck it up if I left). I spoke with her friend too and she was nice as well.

The point is there was no reason for them to be so friendly to me, but they were. That same year, I joined an academic bowl club (basically academic jeopardy), and the one person I became acquaintances with there was the sole concurrent girl member. I was pretty shy the whole time, and she was really encouraging, really urging me to go out more. It is really just this inexplicable trait I guess, and I have an equally hard time making friends with guys. I'd have to try hard for male friends but the reverse is almost automatic.

I sincerely believe prolonged exposure to 4chan turns people into homosexuals, transsexuals, cuckhold perverts, pedophiles, 'furry' imbeciles, and various other forms of dysgenic sexual failures. Something about this transformation in turn I think compels them to undertake further proselytization of others, they begin contributing to the preponderance of their fetish or fetishes in some degenerate contest, in effect they become spammers or advertisers looking to break down and infect as many other users as possible through normalizing exposure of the abnormal. They become some demented middle ground between the likes of a door to door Evangelist and a bot or shill. More and more I worry about my being here. Not just my sexual but my political and philosophical views have been slowly deformed over my long stay. 10 years ago I would be repulsed by images and ideas I now hold a total tolerance to, yet somehow this never occurred to me as strongly as it does now. I begin to gather my very sense of sense, not just of right and wrong, has been twisted. Why do I have so many pictures of lolis on my computer.

>sentencing people to lives locked alone indoors. That’s actually not life
You're the literal archetype of extroverted self-absorption. After one single, solitary year of an introvert's world you clueless retards are frothing at the mouth and literally seething. Has it ever occurred to you once in your life that introverts feel the exact same way about the world you gregarious gladhanders have forced on us for the last 100 years? I shouldn't be surprised at this point, but I really can't help it here.

As long as I've been browsing 4chan I've gone further and further towards fetishizing loving missionary sex. I'm just one example, but there's your exception to the rule.

No this is just the negative counter reaction to the process I describe. There's a reason for the old 'consensual sex in the missionary position for the sole purpose of reaction' 'you sick bastard' meme.

It's not even a "fetish" though, I am just not aroused by porn as much as I used to be (in fact, mainstream non-amateur porn is genuinely disgusting at this point) and want actual intimacy with a woman. It's like it's almost not worth it if there is not proper full-body intimacy. Masturbation apart from that is just getting it out of the way and not really that great, even with porn.

No, I’m not. I’m an introvert, even a loner. I’m just able to recognize that locking yourself in your apartment for eternity deprived of any interaction at all, whether you like it or not, is not a good or worthwhile human experience. Interacting with the outside world is a difficult, yet necessary experience. If you can’t see that yet, then I can’t say anything to change your mind.

Fellow introvert here. What most people consider an extreme version of sticking to the rules here was my standard life before lockdown. Since lockdown, people definitely call me more often. I'm experiencing the opposite of what most "introverts" got- they were socially overburdened before and lockdown now limits interactions but I don't think anyone is "deprived of any interaction at all". I think if you were living an introverted lifestyle before lockdowns, you've probably seen an increase in people contacting you. They have a greater ability to invade quiet time now.
