This whole talk of lottery is pointless, I am lucky to be born in a first world country, rich, white, human, WHATEVER. You are the results of actions, not luck, and your thoughts are a result of your state of being. Anyone born in a first world country might think hey, this is nice comparatively, how-- lucky.

After all these years I'm finally beginning to feel the harmful effects of cigarette smoking. I always hoped this would never happen but I guess it was going to have to catch up to me eventually. I've really been pushing it the last few months. Some mornings I wake up and my lungs hurt and some days my cardio is significantly weaker. The other day my mom commented on my teeth being pretty yellow. "I hope you don't smoke" she said. I blamed it on the coffee I had just drank but deep down I think she knows I've been smoking for the past 6 years. I think she's just too afraid to believe it since her father died of lung cancer. Anyways, I guess I have to decide if I'm quitting now. I don't really want to but it might be the right thing to do.

Whenever I shit I usually have to wipe for about 10 minutes minimum.

There's shit all over my ass, sometimes it's runny and sometimes it's thicker. It tends to run down the back of my thighs and sometimes gets on the floor or toilet seat. I keep wiping until my anus bleeds but somehow there's always more. Then I have to wipe off my ass cheeks, my inner thighs, and usually wipe down the toilet seat and floor.

Sometimes I'll urinate when I shit as well, even though I hold a piece of toilet paper over my penis to prevent it from getting everywhere usually it drips down my thighs at the same time. Oftentimes both the shit and urine get all over my underwear and sometimes my shorts, which I have to then change.

I wipe until I see blood, then I keep wiping until it feels dry. By this time my anus is raw. I then cleanup the surrounding area, and I spray essential oils in the air to mask the smell. I then launder my underwear, shorts, and often shirt. I have to repeat this process usually 50% of the time when I shit, and even after I shit I often need to do it again in a 20 minute time span, where I usually urinate while doing it if I didn't urinate the previous time.

Lets say the king and queen of a nation bear an heir, is that heir, lucky? To have been born into such a privileged position? No, they were simply born as a result of their parents actions, there was no luck involved in the child being born or existing. So there is no reason for them to think they are lucky, there was ZERO chance they couldve been someone else at birth.

problem is im not even a real smoker. I exclusively smoke when im drunk. and when im drunk ill have like 10+ darts in just a few hours. so if the drinking gets out of hand than the smoking will.
i like smoking and i never really intended on stopping ever in my life due to my ability to only keep it to when i drink. its just so annoying to know now that ill probably have to.

It took me eighteen minutes and forty-seven seconds to reach Wal-Mart. It was smart to purchase the second bag of M&M's at a different store. Grant Reid is a rich man, but he was not richer than the Walton Family. The cameras that are watching me would not be under his control at Wal-Mart. It was dark, but the lights were still on inside the store. I stepped inside the blue and gray building. There wasn't a greeter at this hour. Perfect. Less witnesses and spies under control by Reid. I went to the candy isle, and found the section that held M&Ms. I found the red bag - caramel, the yellow bag - peanuts, the purple bag - caramel, but one color bag was missing. Brown. The bag I needed. What a peculiar coincidence. I purchased a bag of M&M's and found far too little orange ones, and there was no option to purchase a second bag. Grant Reid is watching my every move. Truly a mastermind, forcing me to return to the same store where I bought the first bag.

When I was strung out on coke and oxy I sold my best friend of 12 years’ drum set. It was the final straw for him and he cut off all contact with me. This was 3 years ago, and was the final straw for me to get clean and I have been since. I miss him everyday.
His girlfriend is a bartender at a bar near me. I went in with a friend today, ordered an orange juice and she told me he misses me as much as I him. It’s just a matter of who reaches out to who first. I messaged him a year ago and laid it all out and told him if he didn’t reply I’d never try to contact him again.
He didn’t
But after talking to her, apparently he misses me too and I want to message him.
What should I say bros?

I have bad news for you, a woman will come back into your life. Who she is will seem obvious in retrospect but it's probably not going to be the one you're thinking about right now. That's because she'll only be a catalyst, some strange things are going to happen to you about a month from now. In over a years time you'll look back and see that it all seemed to change after you read this very post here. This woman is going to be the catalyst for a very odd chain of events, it'll effect your career, you'll have a deep and new found love for writers you have hereto never really taken seriously, there is going to be a slight change in your body in a very soft way. Worlds are going to open up for you. And at times it'll be invigorating, it will be even awe inspiring and just as quickly as it invigorates you'll wish it to end all the same. Be warned.

I had a falling out with my best friend a few years ago now and I've become jealous of his successes while I've been struggling to wake up in the morning. It's awful and I hate myself for it because I don't want to be vindictive and petty but it appears I have those tendencies. My life is slowly improving but I'll never truly be free until I can get over it. There were certain points where I thought I found the root of my jealousy and learned to rise above it but old habits die hard. I don't want to be like this. Perhaps I could sublimate it and use that jealousy as fuel but I don't want my happiness to be derived from being better than others (I'm not implying that competition is bad.) It's a serious problem and he lives in my head rent free at points, it's intrusive.

I just watched Knives Out. It was a pretty good film, and I love Ana de Armas. But I felt that for a detective whoddunnit movie, the big revealed felt a little too forced.

80+% of “people” are evil monsters, and if you get involved with their lives they will lash out at your for your efforts, or it will turn out that the entire thing was a trap.
Examples:
- if you help an old lady cross the street she will trip and fall and her children will sue you
- if you get something off the shelf for someone in a wheelchair they will screech at you for infantilizing them
- if you stop to comfort someone crying on the sidewalk they will mug you, knock you out and steal your kidney
- if you take in a struggling friend he’ll berate you constantly and steal from you and destroy your home
Humans deserve to suffer, and most people make their own beds. Let them lie.

Nah sounds pretty lucky to me, he could have been born a pauper. If you want to be more specific his father could have made bad choices and brought the monarchy into disrepute and have to resign his office. But in the scenario you've presented he didn't: through not fault of the heir's own he has been born into a better position than he could have if his predecessors made different choices.
>there was ZERO chance they couldve been someone else at birth.
How technical do you want to get, even if we're speaking about the same zygote, at any time before birth when we can safley assume that the heir has no agency to make choices, there are no limit to bad choices or catastrophes that could have taken place that would have ended his position. What if the father declares an unpopular and poorly planned war? Or what if it's a King Juan Carlos of Spain situation, a constitutional monarchy where he is forced to abdicate for the good of the monarchy and nation. Or what about the abdication of Edward VIII, which paved the way for Elizabeth to become Queen. She didn't have any influence on Edward's courtship of Wallis Simpson, sounds like she lucked into it. Now just extend this situational prenatally, and you can see that?
Of course it's a bad example in the first place because in the 21st century being a royal is not as sweet deal as you think, you have no freedom, your life is totally scheduled and controlled. And if you try to break from it, like Prince Harry, you realize you never really can. It's bad luck to be a royal. Much better to be a billionaire's heir.

A lot of people nowadays feel a constant sense of having to prove one's self again and again. People of old only had to establish a reputation once and find their place among their peers. With how mobile and turbulent present society is, few if any retain their surroundings for more than five years. You keep changing schools, universities, jobs, cities, neighborhoods, communities, etc, becoming someone different every time. Instead of having a sense of self, you change those like clothes.
Primordially you feel like someone whose village was burned down, a refugee, someone who was exiled from his village, or someone who was sold into slavery. Best case scenario you feel like an infiltrator. It's that kind of blues. Men are going their own way, women whore themselves and everybody seems to be depressed over how "good" we all have it.

I hate the feeling of resentment I feel when I see someone wishing the life I wish I had. Usually it's counterbalanced by a little arrogance - sure, they're a talented artist and I'm an asshole, but at least I can program better than them! Sure, they can program, but my doodles look slightly better than theirs! Sure, they can program and draw, but I know how to use capital letters!

The worst thing is never the resentment of a specific talent, it's the knowledge of my own resentment. The thing these people have that I lack, more than any talent, is that they didn't resent - or they didn't let it eat them up at any rate. They learned to do a thing naturally. Perhaps they were self aware about it, but evidentially not cripplingly self aware like I am. Evidentially, they overcame the desire to kill themselves for crimes against art that come with every failure, the blood-spitting insanity of a program that doesn't work, the awful sense of noticing just how bad your prose sounds when you read it back to yourself. Were I just as untalented as I am today, but not self aware, I'd be a much happier person now and a much more talented person in the future.

And now a Dilemma: I can include the moral of the story, which is to try to overcome resentment, to appreciate the success of others for what it is and to try to learn from it rather than simply seething about it and living in perpetual stagnation - but that comes at the cost of a satisfying bleakness that comes with identifying a problem and then concluding it's hopeless, so you may as well daydream about a world where it doesn't exist. It's much easier said than done not to lose your temper once you notice your barbecue pit looks nothing like the one in the picture despite following the instructions you had to hand as best you could, even though literal children have put together better looking barbecue pits without having any instructions at all. How is that fair? Why, why does he get all of the talent while I'm stuck with cold food sitting on charcoal because I put a confusing mixed metaphor where le grille is supposed to be?

weight training alone can't cause that. roids can, but fertility can be fully restored at any time with clomid. a woman can fully recover form a roid cycle within 2 months.
>Besides using anabolic steroids is not "healthy" it's a heart-attack recipe.
mild steroids, when used correctly and responsibly, are benign if not outright beneficial. you clearly know nothing about AAS

They've probably told you this already, but here goes: The key to a happy, fulfilling life is not to be found in any external thing but rather in the way in which you have trained yourself to interpret things in your world. Chasing, hoping for, striving after external things will only leave you exhausted and disappointed, because nothing can fill the void, nothing is permanent or guaranteed in life, and every external thing will at some point let you down and slip away. Therefore, cultivate gratitude for what you have; cultivate equanimity to all events and situations; be empowered by the foregoing information to cease striving after the things which are, in the end, only an illusion.

The webm got me thinking about the fragility of life and the suddenness of death. I can go day by day in monotony and then within half a second be dead in a tragedy. We do all these things to try and prevent death and prolong life, but in reality we are powerless to it.

when I was 23 years old I had been forced to move back in with my parents due to mental illness. I'll spare you most of it, but it did not go well. I was on my computer doing something, probably playing XCOM and my mom came into the room and she sat down and said she needed to talk to me. So I paused everything and I sat to listen to her. There's just one thing I want to post, so this won't really make sense, I just want to get to the point. I meant what I said is the point. She told me she had decided to divorce my father. I told her I did not care. Then I leaned forward and told her "if you want to do something for me: kill him and take the prison-time". Though he is alive to this day.

There is much debate over the legitimacy of Buck Breaking in contemporary American culture. Some suggest that the veneration of the pastime will incite a crippling wave of man-on-man ANGLO-BVLL-On-buck bum fancying. While I don't deny these charges, I must insist that Buck Breaking is as American as Apple Pie. For example, in the hold of the Mayflower was a primitive device known as an Irish Domestication Screw, a more antiquated take on the Negro Compliance Engine. The Puritans of New England worked wonders with the Irish Domestication Screw on the local Indian population as well as the (God forgive me for typing this word) Welsh indentured servants. It was, however, the settlers in the southern colonies who found themselves in a tight predicament, as boatloads of sturdy 'groids, to be used for the harvesting of tobacco, cotton, and other products, had bussies as tight as a snare-drum. A message was dispatched, with haste, to his majesty, King James, begging for a pair of Irish Domestication Screws. The King answered, sending the screws as well as a company of hardy ANGLO-BVLLS, chief amongst them, one Elijah Sneed of North Swessixshire-upon-St.Albans-by-the-sea, whose glittering golden form was known to make the Indian women froth at the mouth and moan deliciously at the thought of a half-Anglo child. It was the Governor of the Virginia Colony who demanded that the screws be used on the Bucks at once. The Bucks, cobalt skin shimmering like tar in the southern heat, were kept naked in the stocks. The English inserted the screw, wound it thrice over, but despite the Buck's moans he remained unbroken. They worked the screws down to a nub and all hope was lost, until brave Elijah Sneed unfastened his trousers, produced his member, hardened it, and mounted the largest buck from a squatting position we now know today as the: "North Georgia Hello." As much as the buck bucked, Sneed's shaft wasn't refuted, and he settled well in the Buck's bussy, thus breaking the pride of West Africa, and giving Massa Lynchwater a good stock of compliant, submissive bucks, who worked the fields in hopes that they would soon be bleached.

What the fuck is "knowledge"? And what distinguished "true knowledge" from the generic kind?
Because if "knowledge" is to be distinguished from "belief", then isn't "true knowledge" a redundancy?
And if there is "true knowledge" then there must be "false knowledge", but in what capacity is it false?
The thing that always gets me is if you know stuff about fiction, like remember a story or details of a novel, is that "false knowledge" or even knowledge at all since it's fictitious?

Plato spent 80 pages in the Theaetetus purposefully failing to define knowledge and the reason is that you can only identify the cause of knowledge and not what it is because knowledge is part of the substratum of understanding itself and you can't use understanding to understand understanding. The cause of knowledge I also won't explain because it's too esoteric

>idk if you are trying to disprove that knowledge exists
No, not at all. My concern is much more superficial than that, I'm working on the hypothesis that the specific phrase "true knowledge" is a way to identify that the person speaking is, to put it in Platonic terms: a sophist.
I'm not interested at arriving at a definition of knowledge, although it might be a necessary step because only at arriving that definition can I be sure that the adjective "true" is redundant and thus used in a Sophist manner.
For example, a quick search online of the exact phrase "True Knowledge" the first five results are one from a very newage bullshit sounding website that declares itself: "Motivational Ideas for a Fulfilling and Happy Life"
The second is a page from the "center of rational spirituality" who aim to " facilitate the natural development of human consciousness". My bullshit-detector is almost burning out at this stage.
The third seems to be some kind of SEO trap
And the fourth seems to be a article by a content farm from 17 years ago.
Again, my quest is much more superficial than you're assuming it to be. I'm concerned with the use of a specific phrase as a kind of hallmark of grifting and nonsense platitudes.

Now that I’m no longer an athlete the relationship hasn’t been as strong and it’s been difficult to have conversations. My dad is an English major and I’ve decided to get into literature. I got him a copy of Ulysses for his birthday and we’re a sort of 2 man book club. I’m absolutely having a blast connecting with my father discussing things more intellectual than just sports.

No, really: cf. penis (the word benis, i.e. the corrupted form of "penis... v. benis (the word for {male} (category of human sex) genitalia (not the thing itself, though)."

Saw one of my teachers for the first time today we are still having online classes due to covid and I usually don’t watch them, just listen to them like a podcast and found her hot. She’s not much older than me and her social media makes her seem like some generic white liberal.
All of that got me thinking about seducing her. A couple months from now my uni will go back to normal and If I manage to strike a casual conversation and invite her to go grab a bite after classes this could work. It also helps a lot that I study at night.
The only problem is that by the time classes go back to normal she won’t be my teacher anymore, so I would have to luck out on meeting her at the hallways or something like that.
Any ideas/comments about the whole plan, my /lit/erati friends? I promise to storytime the whole thing here no matter the result.

NTA but yes if you go to an “autism specialist” seeking a diagnosis you will probably get one. I know someone with an “autism” diagnosis from an “autism specialist” despite being told they have either ASPD or BPD by just about every other normal psych they’ve been to.

I somehow managed to avoid getting diagnosed with it multiple times despite having massive red flags that would make most people throw you in the sperg category (auditory sensitivity to the point where I didn't want to go to school because I was scared there might be a fire drill). I guess there's an actual negative result possible.

I don’t really have any friends anymore since I lost touch with whatever college friends I had and the last relationship I had ended 4 years ago. It’s sad to say, but I don’t even have many acquaintances. I work remotely, so I don’t get the chance to meet many people through work and prior to that my job was based in a pretty rural area, not many people, very few young people. My mom had a heart attack pretty recently and had open heart surgery. She lived alone so I’ve been staying with her and helping her out for the past few months. I say it’s for her but it’s really for me because I don’t have anywhere else I should be. I spend almost all of my time alone, and don’t see this lifestyle ending any time soon.

I thought they were all occupied with elden ring.
Anyway, the fun in DS1 for me was about exploring and finding cool shit. Most of the early game bosses are pretty unremarkable. If you are having trouble with taurus, just climb the tower in bridge arena and do a plunging attack on his head a couple of times.
Of course, if you aren’t having fun, just drop it. Maybe give Sekiro a try though, it’s very different despite being made by the same studio.

I've finished DS1 before honestly. I've just been replaying it and realized most of this game feels like a chore. Die in a stupid way, waste 3-4 minutes running back, die again, repeat. Get stunned by Seath's crystals and killed in one hit by his tail? Well go try it again and pray it doesn't happen twice. It just feels tedious.

I'm not calling Dark Souls bad. Everyone loves it, my subjective experience doesn't matter. It's just a bummer there are so many things in this world people love that feel so empty to me, falling through my fingers like sand.

Well, I usually feel like that whenever I replay something I like, no matter what. May you should try looking for new things and preserving the ones you like in your memories instead of revisiting them.
The only exception I can think about besides books is The Young Pope. Rewatching it was equally great and allowed me to understand the characters action and motivations to a greater extent thanks to all the foreknowledge about them.

Outside my desire to fuck women, I find them to be the stupidest, most useless people to have ever existed. Nothing is more tiresome than having to listen to them speak.

I remember people saying the communities around Yakuza and Ace Combat also got noticeably worse after the releases of Yakuza 0 and Ace Combat 7 which brought them into the spotlight. We'd be lying if we said exposing stuff to a bigger audience doesn't almost always worsen the community surrounding it.

No body addresses my questions online. I get plenty of responses, but they never actually answer the question. They invent a question and answer that, but never my question. If you express confusion they act like it's your fault for not instantly accepting it, they never even try to 'translate' their answer into your conceptual framework. They never say "ahh I see why you're confused, let me try and clarify..."

All sorts of questions of all different types. Sometimes vague conceptual ones like "does the absence of social mobility in practical terms make free-will an irrelevant concept?"
People just heard 'free-will' and ignored the social mobility part, no one spoke about opportunities or anything or social determinism and class.
I'm also the anon who keeps asking "what is qualia?" I've tried to google a dumbass definition and a ELI5 but there is none I can find online. And no one on here gives me an explanation that I can actually understand.
I recently asked something about how I can think more practically and think more strategically, and someone ranted about how I need to be more 'present'. Even though planning future actions and applications seems to be the exact opposite of midnfulness/being-present.
I ask for help on freelancing and lead generation people just say "well try something else" as if that's someone meant to be easier than earning money for the skills you already have spent years acquiring. They never say what that "something else" is mind you, they haven't thought that deeply about it. But it becomes sort of tautological because how do I know I'm not going to have the same problems of employment or lead generation in another industry than the one I am now?

Generally people only speak for their own benefit, which means they often respond to you not for the goal of answering your question, but for stuff like "This reminded me of [tangential subject] that I feel like talking about" or if it's an argument they'll often purposefully distort the topic through stuff like strawmans or goalpost moving because they have incentive to do so. Competing motives for discussion is absolutely ancient and it's in nearly every Platonic dialogue - Socrates wants to know the truth, while his opponent often wants to "win" the debate and preserve his pride. Understanding that humans have conflicting motives for social interaction is probably the most fundamental part of grasping human relationships.

You've hit the nail on the head. More and more I believe this is precisely what is going on.

If it helps, know that everyone has pretty much gone insane and are just coping, even people who you think are well adjusted.
The only difference is that you are more self-aware and judgmental of yourself. Try to work with these characteristics in a useful way to plan out and execute your next steps in life.
Personally, I alternate between thinking I would be happy with a modest and zen-like life with my pets and a few close relations and craving to be some sort of well renowned artist living the good life.
All the while my days are aimlessly wasted with daydreams and neurotic conjectures about this and that instead of doing something tangible and engaging with the real world

It took me longer than I would like to admit to learn this.
It explained why I find it so frustrating to interact with certain people in my life. For most people, conversational disagreement has nothing to do with truth. Belief doesn't have much (if anything) to do with truth. Rather, belief is an extension of the self. If you disagree with a position they hold, they feel like you're criticising them or rejecting them. Arguing is a matter of asserting oneself. It's about not looking weak. "Winning" has nothing to do with truth, it's about "getting the last word" and establishing social dominance. Instead of giving arguments, most people think it suffices to "confidently and assertively" state "well I see it this way!" For most people, argumentation is just a verbal shoving match.
