I'm just saying postmodernity and hyperreality is rhizomatic in nature. In the postmodern world our perception is bombarded with lots of information at the same time and it's not organized in a hierarchical or linear structure so it is rhizomatic in the Deleuzean sense.

Read the Language of Creation by Matthieu Pageau. Rhizomes are embedded within the absolute fractal hierarchy of being(s). Angels, demons, gods, personalities, objects, subjects, etc. are all ordered through consciousness into hierarchies incessantly and necessarily. The separation between the personal BWO and the zeitgeist BWO is illusory because they can both be reduced to the most fundamental BWO which is pure potentiality itself from which the entire world comes about. It's impossible to even conceive of the destruction of consciousness because that presupposes attendance to the being that wants to destroy it. Christianity is going to make a big comeback this decade.

yes, BWO doesn't have organs/structure but it is still some signature, a style, if you will. that which is pure-potentiality is before-style. when BWO individuates it takes a certain (meta)colouring. I'd say the zeitgeist-BWO is Hegel's der geist and the personal one is your own path to the higher monadic atmospheres. inside of the zeitgest we are all objects, unable to express the real, outside of it -- there is no language to communicate. so the third option of the intersection: superimposing layers through the crack/fissure in the fabric of the veil. Crack is complex, it is Christ-moment and what is memetically alive and vibrating.

how difficult it is to just write. it just cannot come out easily. every letter is an effort. an effort to escape mediocrity, cliche, monotonous torture. we write because we must. pulling a boat on the river that is chained to you while you walk aside it on the shore. i am too afraid to take a step and destroy something. my world is built of sand and i dare not make a move. i cannot avoid losing something. nothing is right. nothing is coming out right. every thought a waste of time. every idea one we've treated before. we know the answer before the thought is even finished. i reach in to grab something good but there's nothing good left. i cannot ask god for help. i cannot help myself. there is no feeling. there is no proper sense. i am a blind unfeeling worm 300 miles from the surface. i cannot know what the right thing to do is. all i feel are impulses. addictions. my cravings are single minded.

the thoughts and feelings enter and exit so hurriedly, there's never time to get to know them. and each time they return they're more and more changed. all that remains is a singular essence of the thing. a "feeling" of the feeling. an imprint. an echo. until our lives are finally changed and the line is drawn posthumously. back and forth at uneven intervals between yourself and them. she is also just an echo. a complete stranger. what motivates me to this day has been long forgotten by her, probably by choice. nobody is left to cry over what never happened. i dont feel a lasting kindness anymore. i dont know if it was ever there. should i concern myself with trying to find what may never have existed.

the little frog traveled from his little pond to the ocean. he reached the ocean and did not know what to do anymore. he could no longer return. i try to move and get up without destroying anything. the ocean asks me if i want it to bring about a great wave and destroy the life of sand that has been built. i hesitate not wanting to lose anything. knowing that losing everything may be the only solution. the beach is not my home. i just want her. her who does not exist. i willingly torture myself. god will not let me have that pain. i must suffer this pain instead. to rub your face against her cheek. feels as though there is something to sacrifice a lifetime towards. a smile and a satisfied exhalation. a kiss and something warm to hold. i want the feeling to die. no image. no sound. no touch. no smell. no taste. anger. primal rage. injustice. exasperation. crying. i accept my own fault. why doesnt that fix anything. you admit everything is your fault. you are right. it is your fault, always has been, always will be. admitting it gives you no quarter. going insane seems like the only sane option.

I have the same struggle recently. Part of it has due to with asking better questions, another part is learning how to effectively solve the problem without second guessing yourself

What do you truly desire? And will asking better questions, metacognitive strategies etc help you get there? Or is it another form of procrastination? Because personally that's where I draw the line with rumination vs. constructive problem solving. I hate the concept people throw around about "overthinking", but it applies here. Are you putting off your real problems by trying to ask better questions? What could you do today, that'll benefit you tomorrow?

the bigger a number is, odds are it'll have more factors (if it's composite). three is the second smallest prime, so if a number has a lot of factors, good odds one of 'em is three. adding two multiples of three is a multiple of three. all the numbers you list are multiples of three (check digit sum). a big multiple of three is likely a multiple of nine. that's my hand wavy reasoning.

Universality necessitates a particular counterpart. Otherwise, it would be literally, actually, and potentially impossible for anything to come into existence. You are always necessarily adhering to a specific expression of religion. Even if you were expressing everything at once, you would still be an individual expression of everything.

Christianity has the fullest understanding of the Word. In Islam and Judaism He cannot be embodied, in Buddhism He isn't God. It's very hard to explain something like the Zyzz phenomenon for example without understanding that all the Logoi are actually embodied in the world.
>>19865788
I was counter-arguing against this. There will inevitably be an arboreal world order once again because postmodernist ontology and metaphysics and therefore ethics are impossible. Everything is hierarchical by definition insofar as it is related to anything. And there isn't anything without presupposing everything.

This is false because the veil is not less "real" and the "fissure" need not be complex. Christ redeemed the entire world and everyone can participate in His sacrifice (and secretely that's already happening, sacer + facere "to make sacred").

It's crazy, I was infatuated with you, but knew from the beginning that is was my loneliness projecting external worth onto you.
We got off to a rocky start and I really believed it could work somehow, but the more I got to know you the more I saw how boring you are as a person, how flat you, and the people you hang around with actually are.
Gossip and peer acceptance is what you seem to strive for and I find it incomprehensible how you seem to be the same person on I met those nights as you are now. You seemed to care for me, or maybe my confidence was enough to force you to care. I detest pawns to peer pressure, which so far you seem to have shown yourself as.
Crazy, how I have fallen for you and still am despite predicting this and getting to know you.
I'm going to force your hand so you give me your total rejection. Maybe the rotten parts of my brain will get the message and I can move on.

You opened up some deep seated trauma and made me change my fundemental thought patterns, for that I will thank you. Everything else you gave me was heartache, confusion and a waste of time. I'll grant myself total indifference from you.

This person sneaks around me when I'm sleeping, has cut my hair while I'm sleeping, will walk into my room while I'm sleeping just to grab me, and has no idea where my name comes from or what it means. This person has forgotten everything about our past. This person now works less than 10 hours a week just to be here when I'm going to sleep, when I wake up to go to work, and to be around when I'm off work.
I'm constantly looking over my shoulder, checking corners and mirrors, and showing no expression when I'm alone because this person tried to have me committed for having a girlfriend and smoking pot when I was younger.

because after something dies, it is rendered pointless. you have no power, interests, or value when you are gone, so you simply don't matter when you don't exist.

The problem is the basis of many people's reason for not killing themselves is they do not want to hurt their loved ones irreparably, which is right, you would in fact hurt them gravely and irreversibly. The problem is they die too, and so the pain you caused them will one day end and no longer matter, because they are also like you, powerless and gone to even care about it.

All things die, all things will be gone, so all things are basically worthless, even those that have temporary value. It's not hard to understand: anything can be discarded sooner if it's going to be discarded later.

yes, and it's eternity is exactly why it matters! It will be genuinely better for you when you do not exist, for unlike life, death does not die, so the state of non-existence does actually mean something. Only there, you would find your purpose. For the only purpose one without purpose can have, is to end their pointless hardship.

My uncle introduced me to a racket (in a video game obviously) converting gas pistols to fire live ammunition and selling them in a video game where firearms are banned. The thing is, I’m not sure of the morality of the situation. On the one hand, they could be used for violence in the video game. On the other hand, it’s not my fault if someone uses them for violence; I did not force them to do so, and nobody is responsible for the free actions of another. Even in a utilitarian sense, the people in the video game could use other weapons to commit violence; and stats show negative correlation between gun ownership and video game violence. I’m not sure if I should get involved.

Also: a man's free choices are based on things chosen, be they reasons or feelings, or whatever. If they are men who choose to do things by their reasons or their feelings, and you supply them with "choice" reasons or feelings, then you are very much responsible for their choice, even if they too are culpable. ie: stumbling blocks will come, but woe to you from whom they come.

Once again, I spent time with my family this week, and I am astonished at how women are basically synced up in a hivemind with the other women in their family. If you want to see the full range of a woman's personality, spend time around their family. Their lowest frequency in nagging busybody behavior.
Go shopping with your mom, your aunt, and your girl cousin, and you'll see how quickly they sync up, how they finish each other's sentences while they whine about the price of strawberries, how all their opinions suddenly line up. Then they turn to gossiping on a dime, and, again, they will literally finish each other's thoughts, showing an ability men are categorically excluded from. It's like they become a unit. That's why they gather in the kitchen and get hopped up on coffee. They thrive on the kinetic energy. They will not stop talking for hours. Every little thing stimulates them, and they'll all hone in on any minor annoyance and tear it apart.
Families that are run by the women are corrupted. They get into a feedback loop of whining, then the gender balance vanishes as the men divorce them, and the sons move away right after high school. Only the girls stick around, and then the family gets psychotic.
If you ever meet a woman, look at the men in her family. If they're timid, then it's game over. If they never rise above an indoor voice then you know they're whipped. They'll turn you into the same quiet man.
Perhaps the best thing that ever effected me was that my dad comes from a masculine family, and he was only married a short while.
I feel bad for my cousin. He's 36. His dad is quite masculine, but his mother clearly wears the pants, and now that his fiancée is cool with the family, she basically blends in with the rest of the women, and I know he resents it, but he won't stand up for himself. I suspected this for years, and one time when he was drunk he said his dream was to run away and live alone in Alaska. Why not call off the marriage? Because he can't. He can't even start the conversation. He has no real male friends, and of course all the women would berate him for "being inconsiderate of her feelings." It's a tyranny.

I wouldn't want the act of me going around slapping people in the face to be something society has inured to, an odd or even horrific act whose oddity or horror is obscured by the veil of tradition like, say, circumcision.

>That's not a good answer
No shit. But you're not telling me how to find even a mediocre answer.
It's not putting off decisions, that implies there are options to decide between.
It might be poverty of imagination.
it might be lack of situational or even self-awareness.
But 'decision' is the wrong word because as I said in my earlier post, a decision implies knowledge of possible actions that aren't purely hypothetical. If I had a million dollars liquid, I'd be decisive, I'd know how to spend it. But I don't - so that's not a decision.

infinity does not exist in any form. every single thing, be they things that can potentially exist (like numbers), or actual things that are there, all are finite. even God is quite limited.

This is boring. It's mostly unexplicated implication that the aesthetics of Jameson are unaesthetic. Arguing from a position of style about style but not saliently upfront that this is all about rhetoric. That's the obvious import of all those notably arbitrary excerpts from his/his influences' writings, which the author follows with mild snark translatable to "demistify this "demistification" if you dare, heh." Easily using some phrasing attributed to Jameson et al. to really snag you on how ironic their whole enterprise is, I guess. Tacked onto the end is some further gloating over the silliness of "postmodern neoMarxism" with unrigurous use of their terminology, clearly meant to look on-its-face ridiculous ("H"istory, utopia, collective, dialectical, whoa, lol). Entirely superficial. How did you fall for this, anon?

To be fair, the critic definitely got filtered but did well to mask that with a mostly measured tone and even some compliments for Jameson early on: he's arch-curious, got a great work-ethic, and trendy!

But then the writer reveals he can read in German and still can't understand this Frankfurt stuff and it becomes apparent this is all about reading, or reading ability. Which is fine and should be a more generally discussed anyways, it's everything. Now I think I'll go check out that Jameson book on structuralist linguistics. Never read anything by him before.

Not sure if this is what you mean but here’s a screenshot of my undergrad course notes going over something similar.
Basically you can reduce any integer to a multiple of 9 plus a remainder by summing the digits until you just have one digit left (which is the remainder). In the example they use 2159483, which reduces to 5 modulo 9, meaning there’s an integer k such that 9k + 5 = 2159483.

Hair is a meme. We spend so much time as a species shaving waxing cutting trimming preening and twirling and twisting and ripping and putting into bands and confirming our hairlines and such and such that we distract ourselves from the shape of our face. Many beautiful / ugly people are ugly / beautiful in the eyes of ______ because they wear their hair a different way. You are envious of that woman's hair? Well she spent 50 minutes on it this morning because she's envious of a celebrity. You think balding men should just shave it all off? I agree, but not for passing judgment, it's just beneficial to not worry with it since men are privy to being aware of their thinning hair. I suppose it's good for women to have a shaved bush and things like wild strands growing on your arms or belly should be plucked, and I have an affinity for eyebrows that are stylized but those things take seconds whereas over the course of their lives many humans will spend potentially months worth of time just sitting and hoping individual clumps of their scalp protrusions lay a certain way. Then you go to bed or wear a cap or get wet and now here you are pushing that rock up the hill when nobody NOBODY ever points out that your hair looks like shit.

Epicureanism allows you to focus on the life you have now. How you fill it becomes a different kind of important to the christian “I gotta be good and endure this painful wretched place” mindset.

The meme “cope” is misleading. With the wild ups and downs of life you literally cope with it or you’re going to be miserable. You can, with practice, turn that misery off like a dial. And not with some phony plastic smile, but genuine optimism and calmness.

I can tell from your use of "cope" that your brain is rotted from internet usage.

Well i appreciate the answer. It relates to a point I was thinking about earlier. I know worldly people who dedicated themselves to fleeting years and are now elderly and miserable. Why should I put my mind on passing things, chasing after which I can never truly hold, only to put off the disappointment til later? Shouldnt I try to strive for eternity where there is no loss?

Hedonism*

A nice purpose. Goals, but easy ones, or if difficult, easily forgiven if not met. Dream, big or small.
There’s no second shot after you’ve dead, and certainly no punishments await you then. Simply take this gift of life as your own, your all. This is your universe.

Negative hedonism, yes.

I would love to live ridiculously long, or so I believe. But perhaps I would get really sick of it after two hundred. I donno. I don’t look forward to the pains of growing old, but I will cherish the give and take of the years. Keep dreaming, don’t let nostalgia leave you sad, let it remind you of your passed joys.

A poetic answer, but I'm still dissatisfied. I know some carpe diem boomers who told me I'm dumbing for asking if theres more to life. But they're miserable now, wishing they could be young again. Is such hedonism only a young mans drug? Is it just putting off that deep want til later? I dont want to give my life to the now only for now to become later. But I dont want to give my life to forever only to realize that forever isnt real. I wish I could know the right choice

God is deaf to me. Or maybe I'm deaf to God. I've been involved in a church for 5 years now and I feel like God is further anyway than ever. Maybe Calvinists are right and I'm just damned to Hell

Some people are selfish, some people are kicking themselves in the ass for missed opportunities, others are angry at the evil controllers of the world (the christcucks aid). Some are genuinely empty heads and are just mad from the achy joints.

But you can be better than them. I have no idea if you’ll make it, what you’ll make of your life. I am working on mine of course.

Another thing. I felt all those bits of lousy, missed opportunities, anger at the evil in the world, been in pain, but when I was young (and attached to a god) now I acknowledge those things, but understand them and dial back their power over my temperament. I am usually just calm about it all. Ataraxia is great

I don't know you, but I'll pray for you. Only thing I can say is that you should be careful who you listen to. I've been reading Eric Voegelin who talks about how people who are dissatisfied with their life are often manipulated by ideologues with fake self-help fixes or societal fixes.

this is what happens when the retarded faggot condescender gets obliterated by someone who has actually read shit.

Sick and tired of the posts that go "just read x bro" like the person hasn't already fucking done that, your advice is already fickle as it is. the other anon has put plenty more thought into this shit than you EVER WILL, your fucking retarded technique wont work for him, because he's already done more.
