It's a special time of year whenever my fiancée has diarrhea. During the holiday season, when families come together to cherish the warmth and comfort of that year's memories and the promise and hope of the year to come, my fiancée consumes three blisters of laxatives containing 20 tablets each. For the next three days, I harvest her diarrhea in mason jars and she uses it as a base for her famous, hearty holiday stew. I can hardly wait for the holiday season to arrive - The laxatives rest peacefully atop the shelf in our cupboard waiting to be opened; the mason jars are in the garage, clear and clean. The soup pots clank and jingle, as if to also express anticipation for the gourmand thrill to come, as my fiancée prepares other dishes less sumptuous than our holiday treat.

More and more, I feel like your education, your career, your jobs, and your life experiences matter a lot when it comes to writing fiction. So what is someone supposed to do if they don’t find any of their own inspiring or interesting, but rather just something they sort of tolerated because they had to or if they just don’t feel there’s much worth talking about there? “Write what you know” isn’t helpful advice when you don’t know anything worth knowing.

It is true that more interesting people tend to write more interesting fiction. The most interesting things I have in mind that I want to put into drafts are take-offs from real life experiences. And I realize that these events in my life are in fact quite unique. To me they are good stories, but to other people I have no idea, yet.

All I can suggest is that you go out of your normal routine, go to the city center where ever you live and just talk to people for whatever reason. Start from there. Pretend like you are on a quest for life experience and see where you end up. (caution is needed here because things can go badly if you, for example, start a conversation with a criminal looking for a patsy on the next job)

I don’t really have a city center near me. There is a downtown strip, but I can’t get there but by car. There is no sort of gathering area really. It’s just restaurants and stores. But more to the point of the advice, I can appreciate where it’s coming from but it just seems inadequate to me. I’m thirty years old and those would-be experiences for me have already come and gone. Things have happened in that time, but nothing that feels like it could fuel a story. The last few times I tried write short stories, they came out really miserable.

I've been working in a café for a month now after years of wagecucking. One of the things I hate the most (and have the most difficulty getting used to) is getting bitched around by my co-workers. I have 16 year old girls telling me to go take out the trash or wipe down a table, I've got some slacker that's nowhere to be found half the work day barking orders at me and telling me not to stand around.

I've been doing ______ for over 10 years. It's destroyed my mind and my soul, and I've hurt someone close to me because of it. At night I lie awake, in horror and and in awe of the magnitude of the things I've done, at how deeply _______ poisoned me.
Thr guilt is unbearable; no accomplishments, no fame or fortune, no success or happiness can have value in the life of one who has committed such deeds. It would be a farce. I think sometimes about killing myself, weighing the potential that remaining alive has for me to suffer further, for me to inflict punishment on myself, against the guaranteed suffering and eternal, endless regret awaiting me in Hell, and I'm unable to decide. I see myself as some sort of slime creature, dredged from the boytom of the sea and stuffed into a person-shaped caricature. Subhuman, beastlike. Sometimes I think that others can smell the stain of _______ on me. They can see its shadow peeking over my shoulder.
I've thought about going to a priest for years, but I hold myself back. I can't burden any other human being with this, with what I've done. I don't deserve absolution. I fear the consequences of _______ and of confessing to it aloud. Other excuses, other worries. My arrogance disgusts me; I declare myself unworthy of redemption as if I was God and hope still for salvation of some kind, for someone to reach me, to save me, and yet also hope no one ever comes, that by following this path I'll guarantee my damnation and end up where I deserve to go.
________. It burns me, it fills me with molten metal, it turns my blood to fire. How many have suffered for it? How can any sane man, knowing it, fail to fall into its sweet grasp? How could any sane man know what it is and not recoil in disgust, in sheer horror at the mere thought? My desire for it and my guilt over it fight an endless battle inside me and I am losing the strength to keep repairing what is damaged during the siege on my heart.

I’ve been really miserable and frankly, not very fun for the last several years.

I've always been an opportunistic coomer - I would never in a billion years ever pay for pornography. Unfortunately, the scope of productions is determined by those who do pay and what they are willing to pay for, and those people are invariably simps, and simps invariably have terrible tastes, and hence, we get the present situation, of dog-looking bitches not even wanting to show a bit of tit, to say NOTHING of sitting on a man's face, giggling, and making him lick her asshole.

Years ago when this case broke out I had no idea how a man can kill his wife and his children along with them but as I get older, and am at the age where I'm seeing marriages and relationships break down, I can understand it.

I still don't agree with what this guy did....but I understand it. I've seen how badly women can push a guy to a point where he basically shuts down from and I think that's exactly what happened to this guy.

You can even tell by just looking at her that she would have been the type where despite getting or giving anything she wanted that there would be relentless nagging. Relentless pushing and prodding that will drive literally anyone insane with such constant abuse. I see this behaviour in a lot of women, even in my own family where I had to pick my uncle up on the street because he was chased out with a knife, yet it was all laughed off and ignored.

What's the solution and why are some women like this? If he was with a better woman, none of this would have happened. It's not the other woman who he had an affair with that made him do it. It was his wife who literally turned him insane that made him do it

I'm tired of people. They exhaust me. I think getting teeth pulled is preferable to discussing politics of any kind. I've wasted so much valuable time of my life on shit that not only turned out to be of no value, but to be of anti-value. I'm an idiot, but I'm not an idiot for the reasons that people call me an idiot. They're also fucking idiots. Mankind is fucking stupid, and language was a mistake. I hate myself, but not as much as I hate people that piss me off with their bullshit. I'm garbage, and I'm also infinitely superior to them.

All money directed at science should go towards making companion animals live longer, so that I can spend more time with life that actually knows how best to spend it's time on earth.

Ok, seriously, this woman, Mino Suzume, is one of the most perplexing actresses for me. I mean, yes, she’s attractive, but there are little things there are off about her. This is not IN ANY WAY meant to insult — she IS attractive — but there’s something about her face, and body, that isn’t quite right. I know, once you’re jacked up on HORNY HIGH you don’t care, but it’s a fact that makes her acting skills even more impressive.

Her acting skills — WOW — she is one of the best actresses on the planet. She never EVER breaks character and can make the most unbelievable story into something you want to believe so badly you’ll cry. And it’s her acting skills that make you forget she’s not quiet right.

I would love to sit down and ask her how she prepares for these parts and what method she uses to become the character. She is amazing.

Remembering why I chose to drop out of society. I just don't like people. I don't care to know people. I certainly don't like people knowing me. So much of a social existence is just playing meaningless games to wrestle for heirarchy and most people communicate in passive agressive, indirect messages rather than being forthright. Judgement abounds for the most minor things. The average person cannot stand silence. Small talk must be made constantly. I guess I understand it. Dominance structures and whatever. But I just cant get myself to care. It feels like such a waste of time. I feel so much more myself when I'm alone.

How does one overcome the fact that they completely missed out on romantic and sexual experiences during their youth and 20s? Especially romantic experience with young women and girls. I'm in my 30s and I just can't come to terms with the fact that I never had the joy of being with a beautiful young woman. This is why I still obsess over them via porn, ever since I'm about 14 I almost always watch teen porn videos to cope. God why can't I let go. This is just dumb at this point. Why can't I truly worship older women? I'm in a relationship with a woman older than me, and we have good sex regularly, but still I can't overcome my longing for young women and I think it's due to having missed out completely.

Asking a rethorical question, are we? Every human being is a beast of wants, but women especially want attention, women want to be taken care of, but most importantly women don't want to hold any accountability for their actions. Also, women can almost never go against social currents. Something I noticed is how modern society has been pushing for atheism and loss of traditional values, and how women born in the west have no remorse when it comes to following established social morals, as wrong as they are. You can and will be judged and insulted for thoughts everyone has just because current social morals, based on nothing but political decisions, have been dictating this is wrong. Women will almost never put themselves in the line of moral fire in the society they're living in, and since our current society dictates that a woman can abuse a man with no consequences, they will be doing exactly that.

I think you have to put it in the perspective of the times and realize it fairly normal. If you go back far enough, people were getting married and having children in their late twenties, early twenties, even late teens. Of course it was normal for them to date and have sex then. My parents married in their early twenties and had children in their mid-twenties. Do you know what the typical ages for marriage and childbirth are now? It’s mid-thirties. Why would someone be dating over a decade before they’re going to get married? Consider what that really means. Because it would be insanely unlikely to date someone for over a decade before marriage, that that means you’re a serial monogamist, which is not normal and ruins your ability to pair bond or you’re having casual flings, which ruins your ability to paid bond. So if you’re going to marry and have children in your thirties, it would actually be normal to not really date until you’re not much younger than that. Moreover you have to forgive yourself for the times you were born into. Modernity is pretty much a disaster. There’s nothing you could’ve done about it as a child. There’s little you can do about it as an adult. You have to forgive yourself for being born into times that are beyond your control.

First of all, that’s not what makes you a serial monogamist. For YOU to be a serial monogamist, you would be dating without any real intent to commit. You would just date a girl for a while and then another girl for a while and then another girl for a while. The weird thing about modern life is that people seem to think that this is actually what is normal relative to constant hookups, but it’s not. If you date with intent to commit but it doesn’t work out and the girls end the relationship, that does not make you a serial monogamist. However, it’s still not normal. You know that’s not normal. That’s never been normal and it never will be normal. People aren’t supposed to date 20 people before they marry. Never in human history has that been normal. Sorry to break that to you.

You can tell who fucked who and how successful that was from genetic records and testing. You cannot get the range of genetic variation we have with complete monogamy, and for most of human history if you applied total monogamy, we die within a few generations. Humanity needs a delicate balance of not just some miscegenation, but also some non monogamous pairing, because the diversity of sexual approaches are the key to humanities genetic sexual success. We are not a species where total monogamy with miscegenation allows us to survive. It places too many eggs in a very risky basket.

First of all, no you don’t have a record of humanity’s gene pool. What you have speculation about what the gene pool might’ve been. To say otherwise is a scientistic sleight of hand. As for what’s normal, who can say. Sure, if you did have it you could plot out what it was. But as for what was normal, in a cultural sense, because that is really what we’re discussing since discussing it in a scientific sense would create logical problems, you can’t actually say what was normal. I know you really believe you can do everything you said without any logical contradictions built in, but you can’t. Normal is necessarily historical and cultural.

Normal in a scientific context is just most commonly observed. That’s it. It doesn’t take into account the actual lived experience of normal. If you consider something that is normal from a scientific view of both Americans and Iranians, for example, then you come up with a “normal” that is probably not actually normal in either America or Iran, and thus, it can’t be said to actually be normal.

It sounds like you misunderstanding. If you mean “why do people who are good people but don’t believe in Christ necessarily going to hell” the answer is “they’re not necessarily going to hell”. That has never been Christian dogma. Christians don’t pretend to know who is saved and who isn’t. They only claim that salvation exists within the church. If you deny the Gospel and you deny the Church, you risk damnation. Not depending for your sin when you know it is sin, literally does mean being evil though. Evil is when you turn away from God. It’s not only a positive willing. It’s a mere turning away. That you don’t like that or think it’s irrelevant doesn’t matter. It’s about truth and salvation, not what you like.

If you plotted world heights on a graph and said “what is normal genetically” you’d get a height of about 5’8”. But that wouldn’t be “normal” in the Netherlands. If you looked at the world and said “is it scientifically normal to drive a car” you’d have to conclude that it is, but if you rewound the clock just a few hundred years you’d have to admit that such a thing would objectively be not normal.

A collection of aggregate observations independent of historical and cultural context can never be “normal” or “not normal”. They’re just what is. Science itself can’t be said to be normal. For virtually the whole of human history, the scientific worldview would’ve been very abnormal.

You do realize the reason your “wages got garnished” is because I told you in spring 2020 during the Covid lockdown that I had posted something on Twitter and the Department of Homeland Security sent a helicopter to fly over Strahle Street in Northeast Philly.

I told you this. The fact that you did not believe it did not make it untrue, as it was true. And the fact that I chose to confide the fact in you was taken as proof positive that you were part of my Actual Terrorist Conspiracy, and providing funds to an actual terrorist.

There are FISA warrants out on you too, dummy. And just as most FISA warrants end up being used for DEA drug prosecutions rather than for actual Foreign Intelligence is just further proof that you got targeted unlawfully as a way for Trump and Biden to prove that there really was something seriously criminal involved in my case. Which of course there is—the serious criminality of George HW Bush, George W Bush, Dick Cheney, Barack Obama, Rahm and Ari Emanuel.

Not any criminality of my own, unless you want to pretend that shoplifting is equivalent to mass murder, or purchasing contraband that you are apparently not addicted to makes you a terrorist.

The fact is: I do not need to resort to terrorism to destroy Washington DC and Hollywood at this point—all I need is satyagraha.

Which is why I am trusting that somebody will rescue me from this tomorrow, or I will destroy Washington DC and Hollywood with satyagraha and they both know it.

The pond at the neighborhood park in my hometown was clear for maybe 6 inches. After that it got darker and darker until you couldn't see the bottom. When you threw fish food onto the surface from the little footbridge over one side, these little fish would usually come leaping out to lap it up. I don't fish so I don't know what they were. Every now and then, though, a bigger fish would float up from the darkness at the bottom of the pond, have a bite, and then recede into the water again. Sometimes a surprisingly large creature would appear, one that made you wonder how deep the thing really went.

Posting on 4chan is kind of like that pond. I throw out my dumb little hot takes and surface-level commentary and undergrad-tier philosophizing and similarly surface-level anons come out to partake, so to speak, and to have a good time with one topic or another. Maybe sometimes a graduate student or amateur scholar will come along, take the bait, and reply with something interesting, stick around for the inevitable slapfight and 250-post-long reply chain, then float away once the thread 404's.
Every once in a while, though, I'll lure a really big one to the surface. I'll post my stupid little time-wasting question with a picture of a scantily-clad anime girl attached and some dude who's studied phenomenology for 40 years will drop out of nowhere to write a very long and nuanced post that goes right over my head, stick around just long enough to answer a single question from a guy asking what kind of pizza is his favorite (Hawaiian), and then disappear into the depths again, leaving me wondering if the whole thing even really happened.
That's the kind of stuff I come to this site for, even if 99% of the time all I get is a mix of pond scum and goldfish.

I had never been an active consumer. All along I gorged myself on fiction without sentimental engagement. I appreciated the structure, the aesthetic and the overall sturdiness of the oeuvres. I understood what made a character nuanced (and thus more valuable to cultural chauvinists), but it always felt like looking at a scene through murky glass. Not immersive. Not relatable.

The one parameter that transported me finally from the cult of theoretical appreciators of art to those insufferable fucks who suckle on every word because “it literally, literally, is me. Literally me. Literally me.” was introspection. Introspection simultaneously unearthed facets of me that I’d never realized were there, and rendered me vacuous and malleable enough to soak up every character I come across.

The only thing I could want (not that I really want to) is a partner. Something like what Kim and Jimmy have in the early seasons of Better Call Saul. I actually had that going on for a few months with someone but that person left after realizing I didn't want an amorous relationship.

the world bank used to do, in fact still does, the same stuff. if you don't want your country to owe a bunch of money to other countries, don't take out massive loans for ridiculous boondoggle projects that all end up in the pockets of corrupt oligarchs and end up unfinished. it's a tale as old as... the 20th century.

I feel very detached from myself and the world. But everywhere I look there’s a covert but sure ebb of disdain and putrid fucking distaste flowing from me. I can’t seem to control it. I yield no contentment, but I’m not wallowing in mock sadness either. I am just… there.
I wish I were normal. I wish I were mild and accepting and grateful and full of wild hopes and delusions. Not even my daydreams can sustain me. They evoke nothing but a debilitating boredom. Nothing sustains me. Not even substances. Not even books, though I’m reading with a methodical concentrated effort, and with a hunger that mimics passion but really it’s my penchant for drawing out tasks indefinitely, my cowardly refusal to acknowledge the passage of time.
I have no outward source for my discomfort. I am engaging in multiple processes, and keeping busy. I have a semblance of direction. And I’m not brimming with well accounted for misery. I can’t seem to cope with the futility of it. It’s making my jaw lock. I could say, I need to finish this task tonight. I will do it diligently enough. Because I am well acquainted with the other alternative, and the soul crushing malaise of inertia. I’m just stating the my choices are deep, wallowing misery, or just quiet relentless depression.
I want to enjoy food. Or at least enjoy being in my body. I want to enjoy the view. I want to enjoy something.

I genuinely hate london, edinburugh, or any of those snobby twatty stuck up parts.
It's one thing to be rich and live in the countryside, where you generally are well aware of the natural order of the world, and understand that work has to be done in order that you might eat, but an inner city banker that moves numbers around all fucking day that comes home to his flat in a skyscraper, never leaves, and then thinks he has the right to tell me what I can and can't do? Fuck off lad. I might not know about the full histotu of three windmills in Lancashire, but I know that i'm not qualified to talk about them as if I do. You on the other hand know bugger all about how the world works, and think food comes from the supermarket fridge.

Nigga really thinks Jesus pbuh would have tolerated this indecency. You probably think gay marriage is okay too. How come so many christians are retarded when it comes to their own religion?
