Being a NEET is fine until you don't want to do it anymore but can't do anything else because you are NEET and the comfy shell you built for yourself turns out to be a prison. At least that's what I have found. And then you see just how many fucking steps would be involved trying to get yourself back on your feet, and even then you will never catch up with everyone else.

None of this is particularly new, but I suppose the framing of it is in the way it is editorialized for content. But there were plenty of stories about women succumbing to the world and losing their virtue read by people who wanted to be outraged and scandalized, stuff like Clarissa by Richardson, de Sade's works.

I am so lonely, I have always been so lonely. I haven't spent my college years properly either as I just went through them from one year to the other, only ever attending college for my exams and never my lectures. I was forced into majoring in something I dislike and thus had no real interest doing much besides getting done with studying and moving on with the days. I feel terrible knowing that I will never get a chance to make friends like these anymore, I will never get to enjoy that time again. I will never get to enjoy hanging out with friends within campus just doing whatever, or schedule a hangout for later too. I will never get to enjoy meeting friends at the front of the exams hall after we're done as we await the rest.

I don't think I'll ever find a genuine group of friends anymore, it is over for me. I never really had much beyond high school. I don't even know how to sort my thoughts out or write shit properly anymore, my mind has become so clouded from all this loneliness I have sunk within all these years.

It doesn't help that I have ugly features, short, live in a shithole in my country, introverted and have an extensive fear of socialising with others. I have only lived to serve my father by getting good grades. I am but a tool after all, I don't have much to offer beyond studying since I don't really possess any distinctive features about me that would compensate for my academic performance. I don't have the looks, I don't have the wite, I don't have the intelligence, I have a terrible personality.

In the end, I am the only one who will ever feel sorry for myself. I guess I will just rope and salvage myself of what's to come.

I've been completely blind sided by the reemergence of certain someone in my life that has left me hopelessly head over heels in love. Or at least, infatuation. It's been about a year and a half since I last felt this and I'd forgotten what it was like. It is nice to know that I am still capable of such feelings. After a while you begin to wonder if you are even capable of love like a normal person. Or if maybe you've aged out of those emotions. But I feel like a teenager again. It's a good thing, but as with any intense emotion it is also mixed with some pain. I can't sleep or get her out of my head. I think about her all the time. It's driving me nuts!

I’m stuck in another period where I have vivid nightmares every time I go to sleep that I can’t fully wake up from and spend a chunk of time after “waking” in this weird hypnagogic state where the nightmare and real life are blended. I’ve taken to having an alarm go off every hour 24/7 so that I don’t enter REM sleep. Even with this, I wind up having nightmares starting around 40 minutes into sleeping, so then I have a 20 minute nightmare, get woken by the alarm, spend another 20 minutes in a half-awake state too afraid to sleep but not awake enough to stay awake, and finally get dragged back into the nightmare by sleep inertia. If I were religious I would think a demon was torturing me and seek out a priest.

Well maybe I’m being dramatic. It wasn’t really a fight. I came by her house on the street when they were having a bbq. Her mom and dad started antagonizing me but I was the bigger man and didn’t want problems. Everyone was out front on the lawn like spectators. Like, don’t they have anything better to do? Eventually I got fed up and my mouth got me in trouble. I said some smart ass shit and her dad charged me like a bull. I avoided it and told him to calm down. He charged me again, tripped and fell, so I kicked him when he was down. All of a sudden everyone started screaming like I was the bad guy. Why didn’t they intervene when he was charging me? I got out of there quickly because people called the cops. Last I heard from my girlfriend, 3 squad cars arrived. I think her parents took her phone so I’m in the dark now

I'm doing a "radical niceness" thing in my life right now, my attitude and interactions with people mainly. Just generally going above and beyond to be helpful. I've also participated in some actions of charity, both organized and improvised. And I'll tell you one thing, I've been misunderstood, mistrusted, and generally perplexing to the views of these members of the community. Yet I feel great, because I know I have done MY good; and that was all I ever could do anyway. So don't let your nihilism and lack of social reward deter you from being a good person. If anything it should strengthen your resolve.

I'm getting medicated tomorrow. Working through it in my head before taking the first pill. It's a fast action, get your shit together one, so I don't know if I have an excuse anymore if this one doesn't work.

Most of my past 10 years have been lost. I started to hate myself as a kid, confirmed it as a teen, and now just wallow in it. I'm afraid that the cure-all I built it up to be in my mind will just stream away when I take it... I can't tell if I love the idea of a panacea because it means radical change, or because I can't imagine any other way to reassert myself over the funk I've painted myself into.

Being so far past the point where who I want to be even matters, I have to wonder what the point in agonising over it is. It's so self-indulgent. Finding that being between the idea of a soft landing and a hard one doesn't feel like a rock and a fucked up place is disappointing. I grind my teeth at night, but take a depression nap during the day. I walked around London the other night taking photographs in a bad neighbourhood, got jumped, and felt pretty alive when I ran for it, then cried as I woke up in the morning.

I want to strip away my pride, my grief and falseness until I can see clearly, but years of marinating in just means I just create refraction, not reflection.

The space grows smaller. Cities become houses become rooms become beds.

What if Conjecture, when done in a way that is somehow honest, and knowingly perpetrated under the right conditions,

What if rather than deceitful in some terrible manner,

it's actually more honest?

Or rather, if it's still better and more en-nobling than the truth, is it not more important, should all parties know of the original intent,

Is the inspirational quality more important to the human condition and it's dignity than it's more pessimistic reality?

Because, after all, if reality is not entirely objective, and we have within every perspective some more, if not objective, then still real truth to it,

Sometimes, especially in relation to external jargon, and the constructs of socially decided defintions,

It is better to leave a devil unnamed.

The best example I can give from myself is that I may indeed be a sort of feminist, except the western, america-specific terms and conditions related to it have dogma & stigma I simply cannot accept due to it's ugliness.

But in other cases.... Like mine, and like yours?

When you decide to name your personal demons, and be honest not about others, but of yourself, and reject the names everyone else has given you and the chaos, the hell you reside in,

That is far more important than whatever you could say of anyone else, because you are speaking of your very sense of yourself and all the experience-based wisdom which comes from it.

And it's from that act of manifesting your own will, which you may indeed engage some collective action more honestly, and fruitfully.

how do i convince myself that smoking doesn't look cool and isn't socially helpful so i wouldn't fall into a potential addiction? most of the people in my family have been chain smokers, same goes for half of my irl friends. they get occasional health issues and talk about quitting it eventually like everyone does, but apart from that i haven't seen anything that would deter one away from it. i've been miming the smoking motion ever since i was a little kid, specfically my grandfather's way of holding the cigarette, and i can't help but think that i'll end up buying two packs a day down the line.
what do?

Is weening oneself off alcohol a normal way to quit? I still tend to get borderline blackout drunk once a week, but that's better than 3 days a week. It was taking a toll on my health. I replaced those 3 days of hammering with 1, plus like two strong drinks on those other 2 days.

The problem is that in withdrawal drunks tend to get very paranoid, and so thoughts and strategies for quitting get very convoluted and crackpot. Your mind gets haywire. I know a woman who's health is plummeting because she "can't" quit because it's a part of her "lifestyle" (it kind of it a part of her job.) I don't know if my "excuse" is better or worse, as an artist, but I'll be god damned if alcohol doesn't bring a flood of visionary creativity for people like me.

And another thing.
The problem with the conventional wisdoms about alcoholism is that they're entirely medical or social. No one seems to appreciate that most drug addicts seem to behave as if the regular return to the oblivion itself of the blackout is integral to the lifestyle. DFW describes the same thing in the first part of IJ, that the weed guy does not regard smoking weed as enjoyable per se, and not enjoyable at all in fact, and in fact it's a terrible experience -- but that he has a deep need to abuse to regular return to absolute oblivion.

It's far scarier than people give credit for. Normies treat the "blackout" as if it's a side effect, when many drunks will admit that that's the point.

Why am I like this? Is this some sort of perverse high-functioning suicide instinct?

Honestly, no. I played a sport when I was in high school but I never was particularly good and didn’t like it that much. I spent the rest of my time playing video games or chasing girls. By the time I got to college I was spending my weekends drinking. So I then spent the first half of my twenties more or less the same, playing video games, chasing girls, and drinking. Of course, I read too but typically I’ll read a lot, like everyday for 6 months, and then I’ll not read anything at all for the next 6 months. I’m at the end of my 20s now and nothing has really changed accept I just waste more time here and less time on games, girls, and drink. In retrospect, I wish I had something you know? Like something to have a day job for. You know what I mean? Just don’t.

The correct way to measure your cock is with a rigid measuring device like a ruler, "bone pressed" (but only to a comfortable and reasonable degree, don't jam it into your guts to feel bigger, just press somewhat firmly), and from the top. This will give you a measurement of the insertable or "functional" length.

Basically cock size matters either way less or way more than what you generally read on the internet. Except for on the far ends of the bell curve, it is not the most important factor in the equation, but neither is it a non-factor. It's a thing that is important, but it's not the end all be all.

What feels good size wise will vary widely. Different people will have differently sized orifices, and different preferences for how much they want in those orifices. Don't worry too much about it.

Keep in mind that there is no "average" dick as you are likely envisioning it. That average is the median - meaning 50% of men are bigger than it, and 50% are smaller. The data on dicks forms a bell curve that's very narrow at the extremes, and the majority of the data clusters within about 1.5 inches on either side of the median. You're on the small side of the average range. Size queens will not be remotely interested, but a girl without a size fetish will be likely satisfied if you know what you're doing. If she's into you, she'll be into your cock. My advice would be to not let her see it clearly the first few times you have sex, and make sure she's really turned on before penetration. Dim lights, oral (for her) and fingering are your friend. Focus on her. If she's horny and into you, you'll be fine. Don't overthink it, but also understand that it is a small (but easily surmountable) obstacle for you to be aware of in your sexual life.

Oh, and you can't change your size. Improving your fitness and especially your cardiovascular health can certainly improve your erection quality, and a harder cock will feel bigger, even if it isn't bigger according to the ruler. Kegels, reverse kegels and similar exercises can also help a bit with erection quality.
Reducing fat can also help, especially if you're overweight. But there isn't any safe or reliable way to increase the size of the penis itself, all you can do is make the most of what you've got and be the best dick you can be.

If you model your lifestyle around fitness and exercise you will have less inclination to want to smoke because it will feel like fucking up your progress. It's a lot harder to pull out a cigarette after going for a 5km run. There are people who do it though, so it's not a silver bullet, but that's your best serious option.

The other option is just to limit your smoking to certain scenarios like parties etc. Although that of course is a slippery slope. That said, I do know people who only smoke at parties and have stayed true to that philosophy, so it's not impossible.

idk, but I'd say learning to play bass is underrated. it's quick and easy to pick up, if you're relatively committed you can reach the level of skill required to play live with the majority of local bands within a year or less. it really doesn't take that much. bassists are always in demand, as long as you have your own gear you'll be able to walk effortlessly into an already established band. It's difficult to describe how it feels to perform music as part of a group, there's a feeling of camaraderie with your bandmates as you practice and grow better together, getting lost in the sound, and feeling the vibrations rumble through every fiber of your being, it's almost mystical. It's good for the soul.

The social aspect is top notch too. You'll have an excuse to drink (for free) and a license to fuck 18yo art-hoes most weekends. If you're serious, you can always progress from that level to a wedding/corporate band or become a session musician and make ridiculous money. It's a pretty based hobby in many ways and you can do a lot with it

Depending on how I measure my erect penis it's anywhere from 4.5" long to 5" inches long, which is 1" to 0.5" below the average penis size. I also have small hands, they are only slightly bigger than a woman's hands, even though I'm a tall guy. I'm not entirely sure if I'm measuring it correctly though. I used to be very upset about this but became increasingly apathetic towards it after the realization that I'll probably never be able to use my penis for its intended purpose anyways. I would still like a big dick though, it would be fun to play with and might masturbation better, plus I would just feel good about having a massive fucking cock.

The one thing that bothers me is all the contradictory statements around penis size. Some say it doesn't matter. Some say that having too big of a penis actually hurts the woman, but I don't see how that is a bad thing since a lot of women are masochistic anyways. Others say that if you have a small penis you'll never be able to pleasure a woman at all. On top of that, a lot of supposed facts about penis sizes are unverifiable anyways. Someone can say they have a big penis but they'll never actually whip out their cock and prove it. It is known that men lie about their penis size like they do their height. People say niggers have bigger penises but I've never seen a big nigger penis that wasn't from porn. A lot of graphs showing penis sizes by countries aren't made by any credible sources and I doubt any real research group would waste their time traveling around the world measuring cocks. There's also not a lot of verifiable research towards increasing your penis size. Things like jelqing and penis pumps seem like they might cause damage to the penis in the long run.

I did some research on how erections work and I find that the two most likely contributing factors to penis size is the amount of blood that flows into the penis and the expandable volume of the corpus cavernosum. I think jelqing is supposed to increase the volume of the corpus cavernosum but it could also just be filling your dick with scar tissue. Maybe if I want a bigger dick I need to get more blood. I am prone to bleeding a lot and I'm underweight anyways. Maybe if I ate more and started to work out I could get more blood flowing to my penis. But then again my dick is really hard despite how small it is. That means that there's a lot of blood pressure in it. If I can make my corpus cavernosum bigger then more blood can get into my penis. Maybe I should do that, but I don't know how.

I know I said I'm apathetic about penis sizes but it really does bother me that if I do somehow get with a woman and penis size does matter then I'm going to be humiliated on the spot. I already have anger management issues and I'm severely misogynistic so that situation may end up with me going to jail for aggravated assault and battery, or maybe even second degree murder. I need to get a big penis because some girl's life may depends on it.

No idea what to do with my life. Finishing a useless degree this summer and then transferring to a university in the fall. Still don't know what I'll major in. It's a long drive to get there every day. Going to have to sacrifice every last bit of freedom I have when I get a job soon. Extremely stressed out and self-loathing so I'm just distracting myself from making up my mind by watching the new Stranger Things season all day.

>tfw almost 30 years old with no significant accomplishments and still fighting desperately to hold onto the "gifted kid" label
>tfw you know you have to let go but you're terrified to abandon your dreams and ambitions because you see that as the textbook definition of failure and fear it will make you feel even worse

I would say be realistic about your capabilities and try to lead a simple, quiet life. Write for pleasure or whatever, don't take yourself too seriously etc.

you might need to reconsider what your definition of a significant accomplishment is.

I was on the sidewalk so it was public property and he wasn’t an old man. He’s like 7 years older than me and has probably 50 lbs on me hardly an unfair fight.

They aren’t going to press charges. Everything cooled down now. It was funny because it was my girlfriend freaking out after I last talked to her that changed the tide in my favor. She acted immature and threatened to do stupid shit and run away with me and all. Her mom is the only one with sense. She figured it’s best not to make mountain out of a molehill. I talked to her for like an hour on the phone and I’m pretty sure she likes me now. I’m a pretty spiritual guy and good conversationalist. I was quoting religious figures, philosophers and such telling her how I use such ideas in my life to be a better person. She seemed impressed, honestly. She told me she’d smooth things over with her husband but I should keep a safe distance in the meantime and if I want to reach my girlfriend, to contact her(the mother’s phone) because though her husband calmed down and sobered up, he is still strongly against me and has my girlfriend’s phone and is keeping a close eye on her. It’s a little bit of a sticky situation, but I have faith, and everything that happens is supposed to happen. I honestly think this will strengthen our relationship and I’ll win her father over. I’ll see what tomorrow brings

I was insecure first about my looks, and then as time went on, insecure about my inexperience. Romantic relationships seemed so foreign to me, like some esoteric knowledge I was banished from ever learning. Turns out it's monkey tier shit
