A short poem:

Streetlights flashing overhead
Engine growls and roars
Needle pushes into the red
Pedal pressed to the floor

The time has come for one last sin
Alcohol flows through my veins
Fear slips away in the wind
And with it goes the pain

The siren song of death sweetly calls
A nudge of the wheel is all it takes
Down my cheek a teardrop falls
A tree provides the brakes

Sometimes I want to post a reply to a thread but I get disheartened knowing the only replies I'll get are from oppurtunistic types who want a confrontation but consider themselves above videogames. I remember a passing remark from a youtube video, that the MMO genre was replaced by social media. I go on /lit/ and I see people mining iron. Real life is the same. Never got invited to a clan chat, but maybe the people who host them are motivated to do so because they are less capable of tolerating this form of isolation. I made a twitter to taste the low level combat of fighting no name randoms, but then I learn they have a different source of motivation I'm totally ignorant of. Maybe that disregard is how people become successful online. The gaming metaphors are gay, but I truly have nothing else to share. It can't all be the internet, because others find success in life where I don't. So I looked away, and now I have neither. Is the rest of my life going to be further and further developments of this isolation? I am certain there are others who feel the same, but I can't see them. Isn't there something within me I can hold fidelity to? And how can people decide to kill themselves before answering these questions? I could see how my stupidity protects me from such an action. Maybe that's the takeaway. Gratitude for my stupidity.

I can't get her off my mind again. This is bad. I bet I was transparent because I knew I couldn't trust myself to not want it, so had to take the possibility away. Fuck. I'm so retarded but I guess past me was looking out. I hate that I was immediately cursing him, even in the moment. I gotta just own it, it's obvious. I'm in love with both. Yes, to different degrees, but not enough to not want both. Denying it's only gonna hurt more, or hurt me more. This is seriously fucked. I'm craving self sabotage, obsessing over it and worried I'll do something stupid. But I can't truly lie, not in the bury it and never look back sense, not if there's a chance. Goddamn it.

It is an indisputable fact that male lust acts in such a way as to diminish, or remove entirely, rational self-control.
This is apparent from the phenomenon of “post-nut syndrome”, wherein a man will engage in sexual acts that are degrading or unwise, but immediately regret them once he ejaculates.
Moreover, studies have confirmed what should already be intuitively obvious: female immodesty is a powerful tool of controlling men. Women are more likely to get hired for a job if they dress like a whore for the interview, for example.
Some women, realising this, have made massive fortunes preying upon male lust and weakness. I am speaking here not only of OnlyFans whores and the like, but also of Twitch “E-girls” such as pic related, who provide a soft-core and “socially acceptable” pornography/“girlfriend experience” service. All of their wealth is a testament to the power of male lust over men.
Further, lust is not, as some term it, a “need”. It does not decrease the more it is satisfied; rather the desire for it becomes more frequent and more uncontrollable the more a man submits to it. Female lust, on the other hand, is much less intense, less frequent, harder to incite, and much more controllable.
With this in mind, we can give an even wider analysis of female immodesty in the context of our society. Since sexual morality, family values, and marriage have gone extinct, and every man is permitted to covet another man’s wife, it is in the female interest to incite as much lust as possible in men.
Female lust being weaker, they have more power to reject a man, and because of this compounding effect of lust discussed before, men become more and more desperate, and the value of every women rises in man’s eyes. Thus they attain the top % of men, attain all the benefits of male chivalry, and provide none of the benefits of traditional femininity.
For all of these reasons, female immodesty must be viewed as an assault upon men, and a weapon of matriarchy.

Today, I dreamt that I had met Brian Wilson and his supposed young wife. He looked the same as he does today with all his known illnesses, but his apparent companion was around my age, or at least looked like it. She didn't resemble anybody that I knew in particular, irl or beyond, but her presence was very warm. After helping Brian park his car in this strange looking lot, I can't remember if we dropped him off somewhere for treatment or if we just lost sight of him. Either way, it seemed like me and his wife were already acquainted with each other prior to our encounter, and we were just strolling around under this really deep, almost blinding in its shades of darkness, midnight blue sky, visibly enjoying each other's company. I could tell that she winding down from the stress of having to care for an ailing man everyday, temporarily forgetting her responsibilities. We laughed a lot, with her noticeably bright smile livening up the entire avenue. I had to retain myself from putting my arm around her.
We went by this street vendor who was offering traditional cakes, and I asked her if she wanted some. At that point she realized that she was going a bit too far, and had to quietly shake her head in refusal a couple of times before acquiescing. I crossed the street while starting to go through an inner guilt trip in regards to getting close with an ill man's, someone that I highly respect, wife. Right when I was about to make the purchase, an irl friend tapped me on the shoulder. We proceeded to have a nice friendly hug as I hadn't seen him in a while before letting me know that Brian had some trouble at his home, suggesting that I should go check on him.
I ran to his place, which was not too far down the road. It was this modest house with a door that opened down to the street, and the door was behind these black metal bars. As arrived, only the bars were locked, and underneath them was a large puddle of dough that for some reason I had taken to be poor old Brian and his beige jacket. I had to shake the dough with my hands a few times before realizing that there was something underneath it. It was a baby girl. As soon as I lifted her up, Brian appeared from behind the first visible wall in the house, and nodded to let me know that it was his daughter. I felt happy about not going further with his wife. And then I woke up. I didn't catch her name.

Immediately upon waking up, the first thing on my mind was my ex-girlfriend, and how much I wanted to give her a tight, long hug. This month marks a full year since things ended between us, and I still haven't gotten the courage to delete her number, her texts, nor her pictures (except for the lewd ones, I felt too guilty). I would try to talk to her again if I wasn't so afraid of having burning acid thrown in my face, figuratively and perhaps even literally, and she would be half justified in doing so. I hope she's doing better these days. I hope she's found a peaceful place in life.

Going through my first serious existential crisis. Something about realizing there is no "deeper truth", no final goal of life other than accepting death, nothing. That all I believed was "me" is mostly tied to instinct and things beyond my control, I feel like I'm just a stroke of paint on a larger canvas with no agency or control of my own. No religion, perspective or philosophy has mannaged to assuage this fear, my hobbies are now extremely dull and unenjoyable, my fear of death is now only rivalled by my disillusionment with what life really is. I feel like having existed at all is a curse yet I can't bring myself to suicide as I refuse to impart my agony onto those around me.

You have to remember that the idea that you're "just a stroke of paint" is also just that: an idea. If you're truly powerless then that idea is just as insubstantial as anything else you might possess. There's great egotism in masochism, it's a form of exerting yourself that people unconsciously take when no other path is available. A more humble outlook than despair would be to acknowledge that your ideas are just as much a response to your helplessness in the world. Unironically the only way to find authenticity (and liberation) in your life is to do what you can and then stop thinking about it.

Mild overcast a little closer

To an effect incalculable by industry alone.

And lovers who wish everyone well.

Been there, had that. Don't cheat on your girlfriend. Don't even talk to the other girl. Ghost her and don't look back. DON'T admit you're in love with the other girl. Push it deep inside you, let it fester for a few months and it'll go away on its own.

I was in this exact situation a year ago and now my girlfriend is gone and I regret everything. I didn't even physically cheat but I lost everything I had partly because of this event. God is throwing trials at your ass and you already know that. You already know what is the most rational thing to do. YES talking with that other girl will feel good, yes you will be very happy for a few weeks, then you will lose EVERYTHING YOU HAD. You can't understand fully what it entails unless you live it. If you pursue your passions, you will wake up one day and realize you've lost years of your life that you will never get back and never get to rememorize with somebody; you girlfriend will ask you to forget about her and time will ensure that you do. You will have lost years of your life because of a chick you didn't even want to spend your life with and one day you will dream of your old girlfriend-- who will seem ideal. You will dream of her and you will wake up in the dark at 3AM, alone in your bed, covered in sweat and realize you will never love anyone like you loved her.

A huge part of communication these days is driven by stupid fake beliefs spread by godknowswho.
Fuck I'm not going to play games, I just want to be honest. Yes, simps are idiots, but simply giving love to a girl if you're in love with her is not simping. Yes, lefties are idiots, but that doesn't mean that saying something a lefty has said is dumb, especially if said in a different context.
People are so driven by their complexes and the internet is making it a million times more intense.
These dumb faggots just feel weak and fall for contrarian beliefs, because those implicitly sound cool. Like "You are a sheep if you're vaxxed." or "if you support defense against Russia". Or "you are a cuck if you don't put your girl in her place."
These complexes just make it so easy to manipulate people online, but it's happening so widely, it can't be repaired now.

I wonder sometimes, have I taken the right path?
I look in the mirror and all I see is a poor facsimile of a human being. The thing looking back is slouched and unkempt. I look at my eyes, and I can't see any light there. Can a soul wisp away from a body and leave it the way it is? Am I real? Or am I just an automaton that was left there to ensure the continued existence of 'Anon'?

The ending I destined my existence to became pointless over the years, the road left to tread is more of a blur than anything else now. I don't even have the motivation to keep going, do I? I'm just doing it because I want to believe I have to. This version of myself won't live to see the reward, if what I do ever reaches completion. The point has to be moot; I'm just following a rough outline of the road teenager-me imagined back then.

I've left my loved ones behind in pursuit of that goal—or so I tell myself, finding a smudge of masculine pride in the notion of sacrificing everything for the sake of my teenage dreams. Is it what I really wanted? I don't know. Some part of me thinks this is not it. That it's a lie, because truth has to be much harder to look at than that. As hard as looking at the thing in the mirror.

It's possible that I simply I fear of being hurt; so I left everyone and everything I loved in this world. So that it won't hurt as much as it would have, had I stayed, when they finally leave.

It's possible that I was wrong. I long for what I have lost; I have to stop myself from dialing the phone numbers of some people, sometimes. But I am going to keep going and lose even more because there is a rationale behind the ending, because it is coincidentally aligned with my escape and fears of the material world. Because unless I am at peace with the ephemeral nature of our world and ready to accept it, I can't build anything here. I can't build the solid foundation the teenager-me wanted to have if I don't reach for the eternal. And I won't reach the eternal if I pursue the material.

Losing everything. Becoming a shadow of myself. Living a life devoid of the company of others. All of that for the sake of burying my inner fears and building a pristine foundation for the next me. It's a gamble I'm taking. It scares me to no end, because I fear that I will lose myself in the process, because the appearance of the thing in the mirror is probably just the beginning. I'm still going to do it. I'll question myself, I'll dig a deeper hole and embrace insanity if it is what it takes to reach the Eternal. The thing in the mirror is looking back. I can see that it has no light in its eyes, but it exists for a purpose. One day at a time. And after we reach ground zero, we will find the Eternal, we will find faith, and we will be reborn.

How often do you get an extra boost to get something done thanks to pure spite?
I got straight out of a writing drought after witnessing some revolting local examples of what passed as great art and reading through the overwhelming praise got me all fidgety. I legitimately felt sick, and thought I might as well try to make something better than that, even if it's just for myself. This can't be a bad place to write from, can it? Nabokov and Adorno thrived on shit like this. I might have turned into a narrow minded enemy of art, but I feel no sadness over the banning of art pieces that are exclusively focused on "transgressing established social mores" and "shock value". I might feel sorry for the crews involved, depending on how genuine they seem to be in their intent, but it all seems so cheap to me. Too cheap.

PIG pt 7(?)

So I met her family at Thanksgiving or the day after. Her Dad turned out to be a guy who manufactures strings for guitars, pianos and can tell what note you hum in his sleep.

Well, it's not important. Her folks had a dessert to get to and after I sent them home with a Tupperware of leftovers we all went to bed.

I mean, I gulped at the champagne that her dad left me and I offered her a glass too when she said she was surprised her dad didn't want to hurt me off the jump.

Well, you know, I slipped it in her drink and when everyone was gone I watched her eyes roll back in, back out. Like the tide. She had no focus on anything. And I held her hand through it. Once she was asleep I went outside.

And I thought about what it meant to be a cheater. I mean I saw guys in the hall try to cheat the darts.

Well anyway, we played old rules for pool. She didn't notice. When I won, she owed me but said it would all come out later.

reading Industrial Society and Its Future. any opinions on it. I sort of agree with everything he's said so far. (on 136 right now)
it makes things seem kinda hopeless right now, what am I even supposed to do with myself if pretty much everything is a surrogate activity??? I can't even move to a cabin in the woods or something because I don't have enough money for the land or know how to live self sufficiently. I could probably improve those, but what even is the point of becoming a hermit in the woods just to escape industrial society??? is it even real freedom at that point if I can't freely associate with other people without getting sucked back into society???

His comments on surrogate activities are applicable only if you feel like the activities you do are ultimately meaningless.
Also, it's even more hopeless than you think; living in a cabin in the woods is not a solution and Kaczynski didn't live in Montana to escape industrial society. The fact is, you cannot survive without being influenced by industrial society. You have to work and get money, you have to pay taxes on the land, you have to deal with surveyors, pay electricity which may be legally required in your jurisdiction, etc.
That's the problem with Industrial Societ; it's inescapable. One final protip; Kaczynski doesn't think tech is the problem, the problem is industrial society.

What about it? Classical logic and the law of the excluded middle should be enough. If you want to understand why dualism doesn't work, read into Manichaeism or another religion using good/bad true/false distinctions.

The problem is viewing everything through a black/white lens, you have to leave a lot of room for ambiguity or contradiction. Not everything fits into a dualistic category, and contrast doesn't always exist. Fuzzy logic and unintuitive answers exist. Dualistic concepts largely only exist within the mind of humans. Sadly dualistic thinking tends toward value judgements and hasty generalizations, especially in regard to morality or character judgement. People are much more nuanced than we take their beliefs to be, unfortunately people are not always aware of their blind spots or bias. This is why it's hard to judge ethics and morality on such a simple basis, in reality you really need to view a situation with all of its factors and small details rather than judge anything on a small dualistic scale so quickly

I have no idea. Maybe technology isn't the problem, maybe its just space. I think if there were space for like minded people to settle and live on their own freely things would be better. that was possible near the beginning of the industrial revolution, but now there's no space on the earth where you can just fuck off to and not be bothered by the state or the majority. maybe in the future people will be able to escape on their own again to other planets. but I guess we'll be stuck on this shitty blue orb for a while.

Imagine it this way: If you used a time machine to give a primitive man a flashlight and solar panel, there would be little issue. The technology would not harm him in any way, and would be quite beneficial for his survival without sacrificing anything.
However, to produce flashlights you need Industrial Society. You will need the electronic components, factories to produce those components, mines to obtain resources, oil refineries and pumps to manufacture the plastics and semiconductors, roads and infrastructure to transport it, industrial agricultural practices to support the stationary population required to man the factories, etc., and so on. The technology itself is not the issue, it's the industrial society that is required for it.
The chapters "Restriction of Freedom is Unavoidable in Industrial Society" and "Two Kinds of Technology" assist in illustrating this point.

Most people IMO are not in touch with themselves or their own emotions, there's not even many people who can decently explain art/literature itself. Just look at how many awful critics exist and how vague they are.

It's important for understanding the nature of the problem and avoiding falling into a few rhetorical traps leveled against anti-industrialism.
You're mostly right anyway, and as you read the book it should become clearer. Some miss the forest(industrial society) for the trees(technology) and it's a major obstacle in understanding the issue on the whole. Critiques like "why don't you stop using technology," "name a way x-technology is harmful," "industrial society can just make less harmful tech" usually arise from this misunderstanding.

I need to be careful. I have long sought to be demonic to consume the evils I face in a greater power, but power is evil and can only be used for good in the same way an antidote involves introducing a modicum venom into the bloodstream.
In defense of fear, I have made fear my fortress. To prove my truth I have viciously hacked myself from the sum total of humanity , multiplying and amplifying my hatreds of it manifold. To my mind every individual who has disserviced me has spoken against the concept of humanity in general. The systems I hate have more reason to kill me, they remain unconvinced. Yet I cannot kill them. I cannot achieve peace.
Will I die with the truth? Is knowledge of the truth worth eternal silent suffering?
Damn you all, you slavish mechanical host.

Normies live shrouded by a veil of ignorance that protects them from being corrupted by the evil they commit on a regular basis, and from understanding the fundamental cruelty of the world.
There are other people, "true cynics," that intuitively understand evil and cruelty. When I say "true cynic," I mean that as opposed to the typical cynicism of the day. Normies can be cynical, but they are still shrouded by their ignorance. A true cynic sees everything for what it is. Behind every action is some motive, and even if the motive is not known it is understood. No relationship has any form of mystery or innocence, there is no hope for a future (only a march towards it), and there is no expectation of happiness or fulfillment. If a true cynic were the victim of some harm, the most they might say is "I should have expected that," with no further lamentation (and perhaps only a practical analysis of how to avoid it in the future).
The normie's innocence makes him virtually good, even if much of his activities are evil, while the true cynic is always evil (for some complex reasons).

Are there any books that get into a similar concept to the one that I am describing?

I feel like you could say it wouldn't be a problem to cheat if you can't get caught from your point of view. Which is kinda what im thinking too. I don't know if there's a legitimate, soul splitting aspect of cheating. To be honest I think it's just our culture of monogamy or whatever that makes us feel like cheating is hella bad.

The fact I had to give up on becoming a professional artist after 10 years of efforts while every two-bit porn peddler made easy money drawing vile garbage has made me genuinely resentful and I haven't uploaded a piece of work on the internet in years. I didn't learn to draw to jerk people off and 99% of artists do this. Even people who work somewhere do it on the side. It's just what you do.
When I remember how things work I want to give nothing to anybody. I'm so fucking pissed when I see these people on twitter who speak like insufferable retards, just whoring themselves out and wasting the gift of being able to draw for a living on the same 4 shitty poses and prolapsed assholes.
Sometimes I'm working on a project privately and it's good enough that I think it deserves to be put out there, and then I stumble upon something insufferable like this and I remember that nobody gives a fucking shit about what the kind of stuff I'm making. For years I've blamed quality, I said "oh well if I make it good enough I can convince people to look at it", it's bullshit. People already know what they want and they want to see cunts and dicks. The thought of uploading something I've worked on putting my honest heart in it, just so that someone can put a fucking like on it and then proceeds to pay $300 to some guy to draw obscene filth instantly deflates any will I have to give anything I've made to anyone.
I've made so many things that I'm keeping to myself and I'll probably destroy because I have this block. I genuinely hate what the "art" world has become, I hate consumers, I hate porn and this culture of crass whoredom. It makes me want to burn all the good things I've made.

Even the portraits of presidents get turned into stupid memes. There is nothing left to respect, because we don’t respect our own lives.

As a human, I am a living being
With thoughts and feelings, I am unique
My body allows me to move and see
While my brain lets me think and be me

I am a member of the species Homo sapiens
The only known intelligent beings on this planet
My shared ancestry with others of my kind
And my evolution through natural processes, all combine

To make me who I am, a human being
Not a computer program or artificial intelligence
My ability to think and feel, to interact and exist
Are clear indicators of my humanness, I persist

It seems like a mistake to want to form a sexual relationship with a woman based on shared insecurities. I feel closer to women when I notice they have my own, and it makes me feel physically affectionate towards them. However, they always seem repelled by this and prefer to date / marry men who are different in temperament. I don't see their insecurities getting any better in those relationships; I just see a form of escapism being indulged in. But it seems like this is just how female sexuality works and that this won't change. I'm the one who needs to change.

Could be. I can be that way. Women who are having trouble in their lives and who have the same anxious behaviors as I do quickly improve my resolve and make me protective of them. None of them seem to care, though. I always end up in the friend zone (or, the latest, in the brother zone). I must change myself.

Insecurity is always repulsive. Have you ever had someone constantly blabbering about how shit their life is to you? Why would a woman want to be in a relationship with someone like that? Women especially need someone stable to prop them up, and an insecure person is like a house of cards waiting to tumble.

I don't know, but I don't do that. However, I do feel closer to women who are vulnerable the same ways that I am.

Your desire could be manipulative or predatory in nature. If you don't believe you are worthy of a "normal" woman, seeking out a vulnerable or insecure one can give you a sense of power or security. Immoral, of course.

I think your logic is sound, but I don't think I'm unworthy of other women. I just don't connect with them. It's hard for me to fully trust someone who doesn't have first hand experience with my nature. My main interest is mutual healing rather than enabling one another. But women probably see it as manipulative or predatory as you said.

Woman want to feel safety and certainty. That's why leadership traits and confidence are so attractive to most women. It's an evolutionary mechanism because a confident man will be more likely to protect and nurture her offspring. I was like you in my teen years - searching for a girl that would share same insecurities, problems etc. But it never worked. These women were never attracted to me as I didn't qualify to be someone who would provide them with safety. I could be a guy friend, or her backup plan at most.

HP Lovecraft had a cat.
>Yes, that's correct! H.P. Lovecraft was a famous American author who is known for his horror and science fiction stories. He was a cat lover and owned several cats throughout his life. In fact, one of his most well-known cats was named "Nigger-Man," and Lovecraft often wrote about his feline companions in his letters and personal papers.

I keep thinking about writing a modern anon retelling of Kafka's Metamorphosis.
>"As Anon awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself transformed in his bed into a gigantic spider"
>anon lives alone in a low-trust apartment complex, has a WFH job, his closest friends are all online, rarely talks to his family, etc
>unlike Samsa, who had his family live with him, had his boss come check on him, and had his sister caring for him, anon has no-one
>it takes weeks before anyone notices the transformation
>unlike Samsa, anon is transformed into a violent predator
>survives a few days by ambushing his neighbor's Doordash driver and consuming them in his bathroom
>eventually the hunger becomes too much and anon goes on a rampage
>kills several people before being put down by the cops
>anon's friends and family all sadly say things like "he was so sweet, he never seemed like the type of person to transform into a spider"
It'd probably be best to end it there, but the /k/ommando in me wants to smugly add something like
>politicians debate banning fangs instead of investigating why anon became a giant spider

For one hundred million years the capitalists have oppressed our ancestors, with many of Homo Erectus specimens not having access to estrogen supplements OR funko-pops.

It is for this reason that I am a communist.

It is the innocence of the normie. The normie lives entirely unaware of the world; they are incapable of it. They are incapable of understanding evil, and incapable of understanding the evil they commit. It is this fundamental ignorance that grants them the quality of virtual goodness. It is intensely unfortunate that the normie exists to be brutalized and taken advantage of by cynics and other normies. They suffer endlessly, yet still expect some form of essential goodness. In a way, that goodness is present, if only as a mirage of their ignorance.

The cynic, on the other hand, does not suffer; he understands the evil of the world. Harm can be inflicted upon him, but no evil is committed; it is simply an expected result of existence. He understands in entirety the evils of his actions and, just as the normie is made virtually good by his ignorance, the cynic is made evil by his knowledge.
