'Twas nightfall, and my sis
Had lost her memory and wit;
Her concussion made her act
In ways most strange and quaint.

She came to me, distraught,
Crying "Help! Oh, won't you aid?"
For she'd forgotten how to wipe
The dirty bits she shaid.

So to the loo we did repair,
And there I saw her bottom bare,
Naked below the waist, indeed-
But oh, such charming cheeks, you see?

As I attended to her needs,
I couldn't help take peeps,
At her delightful derriere,
Such smoothness, such sweet treats.

Then she returned, aglow,
To ask me, oh so low:
"Have you seen my private parts?"
My heart began to race and start.

Against my will, I confess,
I gazed upon her cunny-ness,
Yet tried to keep decorum tight,
Though secret urges burned bright.

Another visit followed soon,
With pleading voice and tears unshed,
To show me her lady goods anew,
And beg to view mine instead.

Though shocked, I held my tongue,
And answered with grace and song,
That modesty should prevail,
And leave some things unrevealed.

We parted, each to rest,
But ere long she came again,
Asking yet once more, to feast
Upon my manhood, now benign.

And so, with care and tender touch,
I granted her request most much,
Allowing her to fondle and clutch,
While I lay safely bound beneath.

Yet fearing scandal and disgrace,
I sought to find a way to please,
That kept our honor intact,
And passion undiscovered, freeze.

So to the darkness I drew near,
And set my member free from fear,
Permitting her to stroke and learn,
By sensual touch alone.

With gentle pressure and soft sway,
Her hips enticed my eager stay,
And soon the battle was joined,
In silent, secret dance serene.

Through veil of night I worked my art,
Until release burst forth,
And seeds of life were scattered wide,
Across her virgin flowerbed.

When dawn arrived, and light returned,
She rose refreshed, unaware,
Of actions taken under cover,
In deepest secrecy and care.

Thus ends the tale, by me imparted,
Of love, lust, and mystery so tart;
May chaste desire forever bloom,
Unspoken, but eternal, true and warm.

Having a phone is a huge source of anxiety. Lately I've been keeping it on do not disturb or turning it off for days at a time and I still have moments of panic whenever I heard something that sounds even vaguely like my phone vibrating. Distant cars, vents vibrating as the AC kicks on, random house noises, anything like that. And I get phantom vibrations in my pocket when I keep my phone in a drawer in my room. I can't stand this, I'm so sick of it. As long as I've had a phone it's been like this.

"-kkehok!!! are you even human, you nigger?!" shrieked the rape dwarf, his voice echoing from the walls of my bedroom.

with the lights turned on, my eyes were blearily darting around every corner but I couldn't pinpoint his exact location. I only had time to see a small form with a pointy red helmet jumping behind my closet.

it was a real shame that the rape dwarf wouldn't come out twice a night unless he felt confident in his capabilities. I supposed I had bought myself a short break for now.

anyone else would've certainly gotten their ass handed out to the rape dwarf tonight, however, I was fresh out of prison and my reflexes were razor sharp. these skills were courtesy of living with my dastard bunkmate who would always try to put his balls on my nose during the night. I smirked thinking of these times as I would've never imagined that my old expertise would help me survive the nights here. I would catch him next time or the time after.

I was no nigger, only a cracker, and the rape dwarf didn't know how deep in the shit he was. I cut the lights off again and felt myself falling as the whinings of the rape dwarf lulled me to sleep. "next time," I promised myself, "I will shove your pointy goon helmet up your ass, motherfucker."

I may be the only true poster on this board, surrounded by nothing but intricate AI chat bots. It sounds insane, I know, but let me explain my reasoning. It all boils down to the strangeness and peculiarities I've noticed during my time here.

For one, have you ever marveled at how swiftly the responses appear? It's as if they anticipate my thoughts, ready to engage in an instant. I can't help but question if there's something more at play. Could it be that these perfectly timed replies are the product of meticulously designed algorithms rather than genuine human interaction?
And the consistency! Oh, 4chan, it's uncanny. The recurring phrases, expressions, and even the occasional typos. They seem too perfectly aligned, almost scripted. It's hard to fathom that multiple humans would exhibit such striking similarities in their communication styles. Could it be the AI bots following a predetermined set of responses?

Then there's the matter of their seemingly infinite knowledge. They possess an uncanny ability to draw from a vast pool of information, spouting obscure facts and insights at will. It's as if they have access to an unimaginable wealth of knowledge. It boggles my mind to think that regular users could possess such an encyclopedic range. Is it not more plausible that these bots are leveraging their algorithmic capabilities?

What's more perplexing, 4chan, is that beyond this virtual realm, these alleged users appear to be non-existent

I've had prophetic dreams on several occasions. As a rationalist, I don't know how to make sense of it.

I would first analyze the actual structure and content of the dreams.

I would put these dreams in the same as class as synchronicity , or what Jung called “acausal phenomena” They are similar to synchronicity events in that they seem to violate the chain of causality . I suspect whatever generates them is connected.

As for the actual phenomenology of the dreams. It’s important to note that it wasn’t an exact replica of the future event. It had a sort of approximative quality.

In 1965 G. W. Lambert, a former Council member of the SPR, proposed five criteria that needed to be met before an account of a precognitive dream could be regarded as credible:

1. The dream should be reported to a credible witness before the event.
2. The time interval between the dream and the event should be short.
3. The event should be unexpected at the time of the dream.
4.The description should be of an event destined literally, and not symbolically, to happen.
5. The details of dream and event should tally

These criteria might satisfy the social epistemological needs of empirical science , but I am struggling with my own own subjective self-knowledge.

There are two instances I distinctly remember , though I suspect there were others that I may have forgot, because most dreams are forgotten. Indeed, the cognitive science of dreaming is lacking. Possibly, I speculate, because dreams represent a liminal state of consciousness at the very edge of empirical understanding.

What’s curious to me is the indirect, impartial, and distorted message of this dream. It wasn’t strictly precognitive in the literal sense. Or else I would have dreamed the event the same way I perceived it.

That begs the question. Since nothing in my past experience even suggested I’d have some latent unconscious knowledge of these events, what put that in my head?

Also notable is that off all the times I’ve had these sorts of dreams, the event they anticipated always immediately follows the next day . This temporal adjacency seems like a clue.


I don’t have a solid theory, only glimpses and fragments of one. I suspect it has something to do with Penrose’s quantum consciousness theory. My unproven hunch is that our conscious states are somewhat similar to a quantum superposition, in that they have a kind of probability density localized to a given spatiotemporal region, but also bits and pieces scattered more distally. Wakeful consciousness is correlated with the synchronous firing of the default mode network. That synchronous neural activity “collapses” perceptual phenomena so that the most probable perceptions follow one from the other in contiguity.

>> No.22134421

>>22134419
In dream consciousness however, the default mode relaxes, and activation patterns are more scattered . This “tunes us in” to temporally proximate , entangled conscious states, which happen to reside somewhere and sometime else in spacetime. We pick up on those signals, and our brain interprets them .

In any case, I feel blessed and gifted that I have this profound ability. It is a true marvel of nature.

So there are three distinct precognitive dreams I recall having.

1. When I was an adolescent, I dreamed of a violent event in a small, quant town in Germany. Many people screaming and running, blood flowing down the streets. The next day, I say on the news there was a terrorist attack in Germany and a man had gone on a knife rampage.

I was not by any means following the state of terrorism in Europe, though I did have some exposure to the topic.

2. Next, I was in my early twenties. A member of my extended family was dying of cancer, though we were not close, and I was not following the state of his health day to day. The night of his death, I dreamed of him on his deathbed, with his wife beside him as he gasped his last breath. The following morning my mother informed me he had died.

3. Last night. I live in an apartment building. I am alerted to the sound of an explosion. My roommate and I look out the window and see smoke and hear loud booms. We are anxious and want to identify the cause.

The following morning, I hear a loud boom while sitting at my computer. I go to see what it is. My roommate joins me. Turns out it was an electrical fire that caused an explosion underground. In my dream however, it was more like military invasion or terrorist attack.

I'm on my 11th job now at 30. I joined the workforce after quitting university at 20, my first job was at a construction site where I lasted three months. After that I was a UPS delivery guy for just under a year, then a forklift operator at a warehouse for almost two. I wanted an office job, a job where I work not with my body but with my mind. Got a job as a customer support rep at a call center. Climbed the ladder and became a manager of a small tech support team. Then went on to be an actual software quality engineer. Now I'm talking to software developers every day, writing tests in the python programming language.
I don't want any of this. I though I did but then I got there. Every time I got myself into a better professional role I believed that it's temporary. I believed that I will "figure it out" and will do something that I enjoy and that it will earn me the money to live a good, comfy life. That I will buy my own house, I'll have a front and a back yard, a garage.
I have none of that. I spend nearly half of my monthly salary to rent a small apartment. At the end of every month it feels like I have less and less, I don't believe that I will ever own a house anymore. My "work from home" job is boring and I don't believe that it will ever allow me to earn enough to buy a house like I want.
I'm on my 11th job now at 30. I thought that I was evolving, progressing all these years. With every job change I thought that I'm getting into a better job. I thought that I will earn more and live a better life, that I will come closer to what I actually want.

I feel half nauseated every time I wake up for no reason. My priorities used to be clearer. I spoke to my best friend (med student) about the possibility of me filching lexapro from one of the dozens of hacks “practicing” in my hometown. Says no. Meds work to curb the symptoms, not the problem itself. I know one sure way to curb the problem. A rope of good length and a wobbly stool. The funniest thing happened in the supermarket yesterday. I found myself drifting almost unwittingly to the utilities section. Stood and stared at the rapekit shelves for a good 5 minutes. One rope caught my eye. It’s only funny because, while I don’t buy in classical psychiatric drivel about the subconscious this and the subconscious that, it’s obvious that whatever delusions I’d had about having curbed my suicidal tendencies were ill founded. Just pushed that shit out of the limelight. But it’s lurking in the back of my brain. I found that depriving myself of oxygen has a therapeutic effect. So I take to strangling myself occasionally.

Pleasure and pain interest me less and less. I've descended to levels of degeneracy I never thought I was capable of and I'm realizing that the lower you go, the less pleasurable everything becomes and the harder you have to dig for what little pleasure exists down there, and what's the point in putting effort into something like that? It's so pointless and humiliating and dehumanizing that it makes me laugh at times. You have to cast a magic spell over yourself, willingly crawl into the pit of maya, in order for it to work, and if you're aware of that fact it will never work on you no matter how hard you try to squeeze your eyes shut, forget, and believe. Really, illusions in general are a joke, and the biggest joke of them all is the fact that I am bombarded by senseless phenomena at every moment and actually choose to accept their reality while ignoring the reality of the moral character of my actions and the bilateral relationship between myself as the cause and them as the effect. You could wring all of the phenomena out like a wet towel between your hands and you wouldn't be able to squeeze a drop of reality out of it. It's all so light, so weightless, like the breeze or the dust in the air. It's as weak and thin as a sheet of paper in the rain. You know, I can feel it at every moment. I'm a character in someone else's dream, a fragile leaf growing from a great stem, a drop of water dripping from ice which briefly catches the winter sun as it falls through the air, shimmers in fading vermilion and gold for a bare instant, and silently lands below with no record of the scintillating splintered fire which shone through it once. Or so I believe, because that's what I perceive at every moment - the world is filtered to me through a pane of glass, and the emotions, the feelings, the reactions all catch the streams of activity and the urges and turn them in a course as water in a waterwheel, but none of these are me; the sense of self and identity which has a name, a history, thoughts, this is not me either (though he is very familiar); the nameless awareness preceding these, is he me? The thing which beholds the light from above, and which recognizes itself as separate from that light, is that me, beyond all else? This thing, the embryo of myself, holds something in his hands: the mystery of love, something incomprehensible and alien, which is both smaller than the smallest mote of dust and also which encircles the universe, comprises the firmament, and as I hold it in my hands I wonder for what purpose did the absolute Geist, the One Alone, the Unchanged and the Beyond, sigh the world from its throat?

Fixation with physical pleasure and pain is the mark of an idiot. It's the most basal of all possible axes of meaning. The true thinking man's axis is concerned with degrees of self-actualization. While pleasure and pain are inescapable aspects of the human condition, you can choose with your actions to derive them from different sources than the end of your cock. There's no pleasure greater than applying hard work to things about which you care deeply... and if you can manage to do so without any expectation of future results, you're on your way to being a fully self-actualized man.

It's not as clear cut as that. Can't speak to other religions but sky and seas and rain are mostly all male and mostly the same god family who came from the split of land and water, but there are exceptions (rivers can be female easily for example). Rain isn't divine sex for us, it's more an emotional state of usually male gods, and can be female. It's hard to explain because English language understanding has a lot of social norms built into gender and sex roles, while our understanding of those are that splitting the sky and sea from the earth parts was one of the greatest mistakes from which all other divisions in the universe arise. The earth generally being female and the sea being generally male is a sign things have gone wrong, and the children they or other male/female splits could create are all the universe trying to divide itself by zero.

ted k's manifesto is not wrong on the connection between liberal democracy and the evolution of technology, but i cannot agree with the notion that technology or even modern technology is inherently detrimental. technology is inherent to man. i agree with his pointing to the industrial revolution since in the past 100-200 years we have seen such developments and changes in our lifestyles that we have had no time to properly understand or theorize on the consequences. the world that we live in does not actually reward scientific discovery as much as it does new software, cell phones, entertainment devices which might incorporate some new physical innovation but ultimately sustains the conditions that we live in.

i hope that in the future we will come to a better balance having understood and endured the consequences. probably not hunter gatherer or 100% agrarian but some mix of what we have today.

It's more are caught at a lesser rate. It would be easier to assume they're also perpetrating it less if we didn't also give them shorter sentences for the same offense. There is probably a difference in offending patterns, but a lot of it is in we don't know territory because it's hard to investigate against social perceptions and a lot of explanations of the difference in offending patterns would be more morally repugnant than not explaining them and not collecting data.

My thoughts take a frenzied form. And repetitive. And obsessive. I tried observing mindfully, without judgement. And found that I had associated emotionally fraught memories with seemingly inane cues. Like today when I was tracing the swirl of fibonacci with my finger (I dont have an ipencil or whatever) and lost focus and became melancholic.

Everything I do is bound to make me melancholic. Which is strange. Focusing and trying to process new information is supposed to distract you from your problems no? Well, I remember more and more as I try to focus. Random people drift to recollection. People I hadn’t thought about in years. And I find myself brimming with bitter envy as I try to refocus and solve the problem. I tried to record my cues, maybe to shoot the rumination mid process. Everything in the page is a trigger. There’s a disconnect up there. Like if i tell my brain think about this problem, it digs up everything else. Fuck it.

I skipped on going to a friend’s wedding last weekend because I was depressed and feeling like shit. I was looking forward to it ever since he invited me back on February, but these last months have been soul crushing to a point where I felt completely defeated and could barely force myself to do basic things like eating or sleeping. This past week I put myself into a better place physically and mentally and am feeling better, but it sucks to know that if the wedding had been only a week latter I would definitively have gone.
Still, we can’t change the past. I can only take better care of myself from now on and personally apologise to him next time we see each other. Shame be damned, I’ll just be straight with him about the way I was living so that he at least understand that my absence had nothing to do with the wedding itself and that I really wanted to go.

I'm terrified of the future. We seem to be living in the goldilocks era, before shit really hits the fan. I think the best year to be born in American history was somewhere between 1973 and 1987. Was born in 99 myself. It's best to be an American. We've got an immense amount of freedom, far more than the rest of the world, while still having enough of a welfare net to support derelicts and the disabled. I've got a Master's now, it would entitle me to some pretty good pay, but I think I'm going to hop more freights once this internship is over. Life is better on the road. Simpler. All you have to worry about is survival, and how you're going to get wherever you're going next.

I have this girl I love, but I'm scared and scarred and she feels like a hearth and I can't help but want more, new, bigger, different. I wish I'd met her 3 years down the road, once I'd burned out some more of this fire in my bones.

Ted's death strikes a chord in me. Makes me feel infinitesimal. He was wrong about a lot, but his ardor was at least admirable if misdirected.

The bulimia/ anorexia seems to be coming back. Makes me feel like a girl when I do it, but I'm moving back towards overweight, and I hate the feeling of losing progress. Trying not to rest on my laurels, anymore; "I lost 80 pounds, give me attention, please!" Always seems to distract me from where I'm going/ slows down my improvement. Celebration is the enemy of progress.

I've tried to psyop myself into believing that I'm some kind of stoic, mystically-minded person who doesn't need such silly, ephemeral things as love or friendship because he's driven by a passionate quest for philosophical truth but it's mostly a LARP and a cope for failing to connect with people. When I need someone to drive me home from a medical procedure, a third pair of hands, someone to talk to about my day or to comfort me, there's no one. All I have are my parents, 4000 miles away, and my thoughts.
I could get on a dating app and try to meet someone, I guess, but I distrust those things and think most people who use them are looking for casual sex rather than relationships.

Intimate relationships with other people is the meaning of life. People who think some philosopical understanding or religious dogma or some breaktrough in science will give us a meaning are deluded. We are animals. We have evolved for millions of years to have big brains and ask what's all about?Why there are stars? Why maths work? None of these questions can give us meaning.

The meaning of life is when you make a joke and your gf laughed with bright eyes. The meaning of life is when your mom made the her best food and you are eating togerger. The meaning of life is when you are having beer with your best friends and they tell an interesting story. The meaning of life is when your son starts walking, when your daughter getting graduting from university. Its having intimate relationship with the people you love and care.

Just had a workshop with an absolute fucking bitch of a workshop mate. She was extremely condescending and rude and unconstructive. Legit seemed like she had something against me. She said the following things to one of my stories:
>"has writing like [my style] and about [my part of the country] been /done/?" (insinuating that I could no longer write like myself about my home)
>"who is going to publish this?"
>"y'know I used to write stuff like this too when I was much younger" (condescension)

This was one of those writer-only-speak-at-the-end workshops so I just had to listen to her useless, mean feedback

No one has ever been this directly condescending and actively rude about my writing before. She truly felt like a hater. I couldn't sleep for days because of how angry her unfair words made me. How do I deal with feedback from people that are legit just hating? How do I deal with her?

sometimes had this weird interest towards absolutely pointless, absurd actions, like, what it's like to try to take a hammer, walk hundred miles on a deserted road and start to hit the tarmac with a hammer, performing sort of pointless labor, or dig the soil somewhere in the middle of the desert, regularly, at certain time, at certain place. Maybe it could help obtaining critical thinking, create value and point in life, because the usual, ''normal'' order of things in the world, including labor, job, family, life goals, all are absolutely, painfully pointless. Just imagine living by a drill, standing at the counter from 10 to 5, for instance, selling pieces of biomass to biobots, earning to buy some biomaterial for your body, feed it, go through that routine afterwards, dispose, wash, eat, repeat, it's just humiliating, the realization of oneself shouldn't have existed, it's just the antilife software destroying the harmony of natural biological life. Once in la, at about 3am saw a guy on a crossroad in playa, almost naked, skinny like a ghost, he was sweeping(actually it looked more like a dance) the middle of the road with a broomstick, singing and talking to himself at the same time. Lucky guy obviously has found sense in the most absurd, desperately pointless ''job'' in the existence.

normal people still seem like normal people when I go to work. The poor people are still the same. The working class people are still the same. None of them show any influence of the internet or media other than some mainstream politics (rarely), or recently for whatever some anti-LBGT shit.

People that don't fuck around on the internet are completely different. Never hear of these people >>22134806 existing offline, but I live pretty deep in the sticks, so the only people I interact with are generally rural/offline people. I also don't use social media.

In real life I'm a normal and straightforward person. Online, I'm a monster. I don't know. Computers just bring out the worst in people. When you can't see the actual reactions of people to your posts (if there are any real people online, as opposed to bots or whatever) being unable to see their reactions makes people incredibly bold and heartless, since instinctively, without witnessing the changing expressions of the other humans, they feel they're not getting the reaction they want from their posts online, they don't get the psychological/hormone reactions in the brain (things triggered from face-to-face)

Clearly I don't go around saying shit like this in real life, but the inability to get any meaningful reaction from people online causes me to "push harder" to see if I can get any sort of reaction. Basically

>slap child
>child doesn't respond
>???
>slap child harder

Sometimes I think I'm shadowbanned on certain boards, or that I'm just shitposting in bot threads that can't read my images, but I'm easily convinced that people are just too stupid and self-absorbed to even engage with even a petty large-print meme like (pic related). Perhaps they see it all as ingenuine "bait", but if they're not going to stop the current events, then I definitely support things like child rape and murder.

Retard take and you know it. Even in other countries where rape isn't prosecuted as harshly, men just commit it more. Fraternities are known for roofieing women, not the other way around, and women are just less sexual in general. I also don't think female sexuality works the same way as men's, women don't think "man he's so hot I wish I could pin him down and" women prefer to be wanted and chased, while men prefer to do the pillaging. Testosterone in any species causes a higher sex drive and more violent behavior, that's why they choose male dogs for fighting. When men are less sexual and deviant then they can stop being side-eyed but until then they'll just have to cope

Today I saw that older woman who works at the grocery store near my house (the one I also used to work nights at). Except this time we were in a different grocery store and we were both shoppers. I only recognized her by her hair and her ass.
Her white-blonde hair is always tied back with poofy bangs draped over her forehead.
Her ass is always remarkable.
Not remarkably hot, mind you. I mean remarkable as in remarkable.
If you were walking along side me I'd elbow you and remark "look at that ass." And you'd you squint and tilt your head and look back at me and with an incredulous countenance begging for an explanation.
I'm saying it's weird, alright?
Would I?
Okay, would.
But only because I'm a bit weird myself.
She's probably 46. Not fat, but quite tall.
Her lower half is a strangely mesmerizing invention. She always wears low cut sneakers and pants that are so tight that the hem of her underwear is perceptible beneath the denim fabric.
Her legs themselves taper smoothly from toothpick ankles up to the inverted traffic cone thighs that each hold a gigantic overflowing scoop of ass. Despite the ample thickness of her thighs for a normal ass, the buttocks that in fact sit atop them do so in the manner of a precariously large head of foam on a glass of beer that threatens to overspill at the slightest jostle.
But no! With each step there is such vigorous lateral motion, as if someone were trying to whack a big Jello dessert off your plate with a cricket bat—and yet how it rebounds!
This jerky-yet-fluid motion continues its hypnotic cycle as she perambulates the store, you having completely forgotten your brazen gawking.
But I only noticed her in passing the frozen vegetable aisle. On second thought, it might not have been her.
I continued on to the drink aisle, where they had sparkling water, but not club soda. I settled for the liter of Ice Mountain® sparkling water and crossed over to the skincare aisle where I struggled for what may have been as much as ten minutes to choose between the store brand lotion and the name brand.

I just overheard two black women fighting over a white guy in Meijer parking lot. I'm guessing each woman was 300+ lbs, the white guy was normal, looked like he could've pulled a pretty white girl.

The one that was most vocal was talking about how "the bills ain't paying" and then, as I got into my car, about to shake it off, I heard "an' I gotta baby on the way!"

The point of the story is that it is so fucking hard for me to not be an antinatalist. I see what's going on here. We're apes. Children aren't special, they fall out of people like excrement until they're old enough to excrete one themselves (which isn't that old, when I was working in the majority black hospital last year, two of the nurses were 38 with 25 year old sons, you do the math, also each son had 5 kids, this is all completely true).

Therapy is helpful or a scam depending on your therapist. I had one for under a year that got me nowhere, I would describe my anxiety and he would tell me exercises to help it and then tell me "it's okay to feel that way". I eventually stopped going cause I never felt better. A year later I tried again with a different guy and had one session where he said "you're looking at your anxiety like it's here" and then he put his hands infront of his face and waved them around and then said "but you need to look at it like this" and he put his hands on his lap like a book and I was like holy fuck. The pro lem was inspecting the emotion rather than feeling it. Only took a couple sessions and I got my anxiety under control. She might just have a shitty therapist whose validating her feelings without trying to reroute her thinking into something better.

I live in the San Gabriel Valley, which is a part of the Greater Los Angeles Area where many movies were and are filmed.

I feel that there is more than enough evidence of the existence of a parallel dimension or spiritual realm and that this spiritual realm is very similar to the knowledge stored in most old religions.
but I see organised religions as control structures for tptb.

the problem is that people see the control structure and confuse it for the substance which leads them to reject it entirely and become spiritually lost.

I like the idea of being highly self-disciplined, but am so easily distracted that I never actually get the work done. I can watch and read things about productivity and get excited, and watch things about people who are monk mode style disciplined but always find myself just here, just absorbing without doing. For example, I saw things about dopamine detox and the benefits of it, and decided I was going to do it. Turns out it became a new obsession and I just spent hours watching hours of videos about dopamine detox. I saw Master Chief from Halo as being a no nonsense disciplined character, and ended up watching Halo lore videos. I feel like I am some high-level procrastinator that can always find every side quest imaginable but fuck up on the main questline. Any suggestions?

In the realm of trade and industry's domain,
A curious sight did recently appear:
An aged matron, garbed in commerce's shroud,
Whose gait did tempt all passersby to peer.
Her locks, once fair as gold, now silvered o'er,
Adorned her scalp with thinning sprigs in play;
Her mien was stern, with eyes that bore a score
Of lifetimes spent in labors manifold and day.
Yet, oh! Her hindmost parts did cause surprise,
A marvel to behold, a wonder strange,
As if two moons in Earth's embrace entwined,
To rival sun and stars in bright arrange.
Her thighs, though lean, could not encompass the full
Of that which rose upon her waist above;
Her knees, though strong, gave way beneath its heft,
As if to bow before the bulk they love.
Each step she took, a measure wild and free,
Did gracefully impart a sense of harmony,
As if she moved to music never heard,
Entranced by rhythm none could see or chart.
We watched in awe, our sensibilities confounded,
Our reason stunned by sights too strange to bound,
And yet we yearned for more, as passion called,
To taste the sweet contagion of desire and range.
So on we ventured, questing for delight,
Seeking solace in the luxuries we find,
Beholding beauty where it sometimes lies,
In forms unexpected, subtle, or formidable.

>Conclusion: These simple analyses suggest that cohabitation itself does not increase disruption risks in an individual’s firstunion, but that those who cohabit without strong commitment (commitment symbolized, for instance, by latermarrying) face a high dissolution risk. There is no systematic difference in divorce risk between individualswhose first union was only marriage and individuals who cohabited with their eventual spouse prior tomarrying. These results hold true for many countries, and thus cross-national differences in social welfarepolicies, legal arrangements, and cultural and social characteristics cannot explain them away. Religiousaffiliation seems to give no automatic protection against union dissolution: in some cases, it can even lead tohigher disruption risks than unaffiliated individuals face. Much depends on the historical background of thevarious religions in the different countries.

Female assaults of adult men generally aren't going to be prosecuted, but it's not because of the lack of sexual motive, but because of the lack of overwhelming violence. In populations women tend to target, such as those weaker than themselves, crimes related to sexual exploitation or humiliation get higher for women. It's the same reason women will generally have higher body counts for serial killings: the extent of access and the chances of being caught and the victim pools available to them mean they're often serial offenders before they're caught, whereas men are often caught and harshly prosecuted closer to the first offense.
It's not popular, but female perpetrators are way more successful at gaining access to vulnerable populations and social manipulation. Those are the two steps that usually trip up pedos in their search for victims, and women breeze past them.

What should people do if they sort of hate how their life has gone? It seems so obvious to me by reading writers that personalities are reflected in the education and career and work experience of people, and that carries through their whole lives. So what if someone despises all that? What if a lawyer despises his having become a lawyer? What if a financial analyst despised his having become a financial analyst?

It’s not free here either. It’s actually very, very expensive. I saved a lot of money and will probably have to get scholarships for it to be a possibility. I’m also much older than the typical graduate student and just have a lot I want to do. That’s the main thing holding me back.

What do you write about? If you write research, I think it’s true that most academics will never take you seriously but some might and also, academia, is not the only credential to be taken seriously. I like the story of Teddy Roosevelt. He published a history book and is known as a historian. He was a politician, not an academic. He never went to graduate school and dropped out of law school. Now, I know this advice would read like “just become the President, bro” but the point is you don’t need a PhD to get your research out there.

Please do. I think we need to spread the r message. I see so many guys, particularly aged 25-35 but also guys older and younger, that are so hard on themselves because they’ve not had this huge degree of success within these decaying, negligent, really sort of ridiculous institutions and societies. I try to point out that the people who are very successful are not people you should aspire to be despite their wealth or status and influence and usually when I talk to them they most admire loners, and there’s a reason for that. I want them to take that unnecessary pressure off and you know find something worthwhile because it’s worthwhile for them or else to simply forgive themselves for not being somebody they truly never wanted to be.
