What's up guys.

I only have around 2 hours of energy every day, and I don't know why. I am seeing this girl right now and she says that I am very smart (which is true objectively, I went to a good ivy, good gpa etc) but I just think, how retarded is it that I can't do work for more than an hour a day? I am just so tired all the time. I'm trying to get a job but I just can't imagine working for more than an hour a day. What do I do? I feel like I have a low thyroid or something. I need to sleep like 9 hours a night, and my wakeup time every day is 11 am.

I think of that passage in the phaedrus that an anon posted in the plato thread the other day:

>Those who have knocked about in courts and the like from their youth up seem to me, when compared with those who have been brought up in philosophy and similar pursuits, to be as slaves in breeding compared with freemen; the latter always have that which you just spoke of, leisure, and they talk at their leisure in peace; just as we are now taking up argument after argument, already beginning a third, so can they, if as in our case, the new one pleases them better than that in which they are engaged; and they do not care at all whether their talk is long or short, if only they attain the truth. But the men of the other sort are always in a hurry—for the water flowing through the water-clock urges them on—and the other party in the suit does not permit them to talk about anything they please, but stands over them exercising the law's compulsion by reading the brief, from which no deviation is allowed (this is called the affidavit); and their discourse is always about a fellow slave and is addressed to a master who sits there holding some case or other in his hands; and the contests never run an indefinite course, but are always directed to the point at issue, and often the race is for the defendant's life.

Well that's exactly right, I haven't done jack shit in my life and I still don't want to. But yet I still have good ideas. People hang off my conversation and I am creative (although it's really getting to the point where I /need/ to publish something non-academic. put myself out there). What shoudl I do? I have to apply for food stamps soon to feed myself.

I want to be a writer. I want to be a thinker, maybe an advisor like Plato was (a teacher). But even when I teach I just can't stand it. I just want to go to sleep and not do anything. And before anyone asks, yes, I have the same appetite trappings of most people in modernity (fried dopamine receptors etc) and am especially carnal when I go abstinent for like a week (lol).

I'm thinking at this point my best strategy is going to be walking around the city I live in and just putting up posters saying "my body is a machine that turns money into art" and hope that someone bites. But I am so ashamed because it's not a manly thing to just sit around and be tired and think all day. I am pulled in so many directions trying to make money but none

I'm a Westerner of Germanic descendance in an Eastern country (outside the European Union and majority Orthodox but they also have authoctonous muslims). I do not want to return to the West because it became too expensive and woke. Has anyone been on a similar situation? What did you do? Should I work for a private company or for the government?

Got some news for you, chief. She isn't precious and neither will your next girlfriend be. For every moment you felt in love, she silently wished herself back into a high chair, crying ferally with arms akimbo, butt naked save a shit-stained burlap diaper.
>Give me what I want! Give me what I want! Now! NOW! A HOUSE! YOUR PENSION!
She screams as fæces run down her leg and maculate the carpet - your carpet. Do yourself a favour, chief, and recall the truth of this image anytime that dreaded word "precious" comes over your lips.

next time I will go on NEET I will make for myself a strict routine in which I will include cooking, working out, reading books, learning new language, acquiring new skill etc. Taught by the mistakes of the past I won't be making the same mistakes and losing day by day. Now I will work for year or two and then go on NEET and make it to the full potential, so basically it won't be NEET anymore, since I will be educating and training myself, so I could say it will be a self-improvement journey, but that sounds really gay, so idk, you prob getting my drift

Hi, here I am! Well buddy life can be hard like that gotta just keep on moving forward following the right old rhythm of the rain that beats and beats and beats and beats and beats and beats and beats in the windowpane windowpane windowpane again LOL my pappy sometimes repeats words in the drunken fluidity of speech to show me that the were important you know sometimes things have to be emphasized like my pappy's crawdad operation out of baton rouge boy he got success there after he and his friends pushed out guy Bannister's methadone henchmen But I guess sometimes we just have to take what life throws at us, shit, it's difficult, a real tough cookie to swallow but it's what makes up a man ... I remember a friend of my daddy, he worked on an oil rig off the coast of Louisiana, lived there in a jade quarter flat with a half bath like near lake Pontchartrain now in those days, were talking like early 70s, baton rouge was THE hotspot for methadone trade like the real deal, i.e. heroin the stuff that fucked up Kurt Cobain is what this methadone business is a replacement for, and the company men on the oil rig who were all by the way henchmen of Guy Bannister 's Panzer divion, used to do the trade route for local criminals...real bad guys trust me, no one you would want to mess with ..anyways my dad was not in favor Guy Bannister's methadone racket and starting sinking the bags of methadone into Ponchetrain when the foreman were out drinking in the night..now the sad thing is that o ur dog also drank from lake Ponchetrain, it later died of chronic diarrhea but by that time my father had become such a strong man that he didn't even shed a tear, to this day i look up to his example and think of that wise old turn in phrase- when life gives you lemons, make lemonade! Well you know and that reminds me of what grand pappy used to spout off all wild and sea bass fish like from the gaffe boat part after he'd done had some Schlitz and cigarettes: them Huns is peckerwoods! Just like us pecker pecker pecker pecker suckin' peckerwoods...each and every last one of them God made us all equal except for the Huns Huns are righteous and will not even allow the bull nab to put a fire to it when it's dirty shit man isn't that the truth? ?? We got lucky that victory came so easily it was time to dance and smoke cigarettes after the war i remember Andy Williams and Ann Margaret in Branskon Missouri near the riverwalk singing the anthem with eyes welling full of sloppy tears for the boon of the notion, the nation very nuch a proud moment for grand pappy whose father was an infantry man for the Queen's army delpoyed inspa to push back the Krauts man shit that must have been crazy ...parachuting Krauts in the countryside, heroism at stake for the sake of a uncle Sam giving you a pat in your young man's Back ...

i would suggest approaching Oliver Stone's opus chronologically both in the macro and micro scale, I mean watch his first film -- the one that came out into the multiplex in the year furthest away from the current year -- and start on the first scene working slowly towards the last one. I have read many books and watching many movies using this method. cheers stay healthy out there, numbers rising up again. got to be careful about the delta variant, well anyway heading down to denny's now with friends. I play bingo with them there on Monday nights sometimes we also order something to eat but normally not only if im hungry I normally order the country fried steak, it reminds me of the hungry man meals I used to eat when I was depressed ... tom Brokaw was still alive then, damn even Tim russert, I mean ,,, meet the press man. he really held politicians feet to the fire. anyways denny's cuisine reminds me a lot of hungry man days except for the cowboy chopped steak it's on the value menu for 8.99 dollar now that's a good deal you really get the value for your buck at denny's when you're there, it's like you're family but wait LOL that+s already a slogan for another restaurant chain the Olive Garden my grandfather once told me about the difficulties of marriage we used to vibe together in Virgin record stores he introduced me to Led Zeppelin I really like Immigrant Song although I sure don't like immigrants well anyways sorry, im getting a bit off track that happens sometimes sorry , .my friends at Dennys are late to the party and my tummy is very hungry now I haven't eaten anything since yesterday been temporarily light due to the construction boss laying me off i accidentally showed up to work drunk and made a fool of myself by wetting my pants but I mean, come on ,, we all have our problems. I don*t think it was appropriate to fire me for this reason , it's not like I hurt anyoneI wanted to ask you about some Dale Earndheardt merchandise my granddaughter is just the biggest fan ,.. I just wanted to announce to everyone that I will be joining the bingo game late because my other friends are stuck in traffic jams there seems to be a problem on west 9th street, basically a small crash I will be joining the game late very concerned about my friends. one said he needed to go to the gas station before but didn't make it in time hopefully the gas will last enough to Denny's thanks and keep me updated my mobile data hasn't been so good lately, a bit "on the fritz" as my daddy said

So the guy at the part is lonely and has no desire to be with friends despite being at a party because he hurt your feelings? Guy was likely drunk or thought he was being funny or 100 other things. But this demonstrates why some have little initiative to socialize, endlessly encountering this sort of logic is depressing, the reduction of every event to "me." You write this post about supposedly wanting to understand people but then take a hard left at the end to make it about yourself.

Being with people is sometimes more lonely than being alone.

like my pappy was I am loud proud and stand my place and defend the bodies of my thought and oh my god we have already been on a whirlwind tour though the whole gamut of issues this evening ... I think what what really inspired me this evening was the Bill Paxton moments of transformation tin the final scenes of Twister, his wholedully serrated timidisnouss transmutuates into the big face of a man when he grabs the rubber pipe to save himself and alliterative queen Helen Hunt ... and the moment when they both upside down like fireworks at a fairground let their feet dangle above their heads and view the dual twisters as they jangle with God's ear tempo above their realm is so powerful .... goddamn it moves me LOL I get goosebumps just thinking about it ... makes me understand that guy bannister's clan in Baton Rouge was already damned to failure ... hmm. .... one people think that animals because they can't talk lack any soul and brains and guts and determination well well well try telling that to a hunter on a bad day LOL animals are very smart shit, there are some rabbits and other little varmints grand pappy and me tracked down in the steppes of Indiana, Litchfield's little "league" baseball dungeon near the bleacher of Mr. Washler's storefront those were the days I tell you...."summertime and the living is easy" - Gershwin just like that..a bit of sports and a bit of bonding at the pool. when my mother was preparing the fruit salad my father found the jukebox (Jules McMaster gave it to him as a gift for parting prom ritual, pappy had to hide the jukebox from mommy because it would make her jealous and also remind her of the ice-creaming tinted desk reclusion of the penultimate eventide shrovetide fair Stravinsky like whiskey serialism Cold War days, boy even as children we never forgot McCarthy - have you no bane? LOL my grandson would get that joke he watches super hero movies...well I#m off to denny's to play bingo..stay healthy and boars are pesky varmints that with Bia phage the arenas of blessed solitude .. just like my WIFE LOL a man just can't have his peace can he? well take it easy friends, well have to continue this conversation after I win at bingo LOL my friends get jealous of me when I win at bingo at denny's, shit I seen one of them who tried to spit in my food! while I was out for a cigarette with thunder thighs..makes you wonder who you're real friends are in this crazy world .... I guess it's the people that care and love about you like a tree hugs a valley in a hard storm Bill Paxton was very much like a tree, I know Bill Paxton very much. I am a fan of his early work now the scenes that are thematically emergent after the establishment of the Wakitian prologue are of better quality, cut from a better like daddy would say I mean Philipp Seymour Hoffman was a great actor in his own right so goddamn man that bloody scene where the hubcap rips open his forehead in the garage while the bigass twister rips away the movie screen

Sweep

Three degrees above the horizon
The sun's disc looked impossibly large,

And a deep, pure, tangerine just under the intensity threshold of
Long comfortable looking, crisply outlined

As it seemed to dodge among the trees just outside of town
As I drove more or less east

Into sunrise with the soundsystem turned up
On a road level as a runway

And yet suave with interestingly gradual curves through rolling corn country.

Shortly there presented to me a scene palatial beyond belief,
A wind-break of oaks almost to the horizon

I'd never appreciated so much, arranged more or less for spectacle, casually.

I've known this band for 9 years. I realized Tsumanne/Minna shine will be 10 years old this year and had this thought creep into my head about how whether there's any new music now in 2020 that can resonate with hikkineet fuckups in the same way that those 2 albums did with me back then. I feel like the current zeitgeist isn't really conductive to that kind of music getting produced anymore. It's a very sincere sound that employed a classical form of irony (juxtaposing lyrical tone with major key composition) but currently it doesn't even register as irony to people because it's not comically exaggerated, detached, misanthropic self-mockery presenting itself as self-awareness. All that aside information and media dilution by sheer volume makes it functionally impossible to find any genuinely good underground stuff on streaming sites and share blogs are dead so how would I even find anything analogous to them anyway? haha

My Bloody Valentine
(A Homage to Nabokovian Erotica)

With subtle grace and guileful art,
My predatory glances scan the street,
For lovely creatures, blossoms fair,
Whose every step eludes my thought.

Yet some I find, or find finds me,
And then my hunt begins anew,
As I employ both mind and feet
To follow them, to bring them to suite.

Once won, I cast my charms anew,
To entrance and subdue their will,
And then, before they fully knew,
The feast commences upon us still.

Oh, how they writhe and cry out bliss,
As fangs imprint their tender flesh,
And though their blood may boil and spout,
They succumb to pleasure's rush.

But once the wine of lust has flowed,
Darkness descends, and joy grown cold,
They join the legion of the frozen,
Shadows of themselves, beholden.

Enslaved by vice, by love's sick whims,
They serve my every want and need,
Eternal concubines of gloom,
Whose souls were shed when body's freed.

In shadow's grasp they fade away,
Pale phantoms of their former state,
Ethereal sisters in decay,
Enshrouded in the vampire's fate.

The environment I'm surrounded by is legitimately putrid and it's almost to the point of making me ashamed of my ethnicity/nationality, especially considering I have to endure all this crap almost everyday. All Italian zoomers are the same. They ALL love soccer, they ALL have at least 4 or 5 facial piercings and/or tattoos, they ALL listen to shitty rap and pop music (and I don't even mean XXXTentacion or whatever, there are things much worse than that, believe me) and they all buy the most recent clothing (even if it's bullshit expensive and looks like utter crap), PC-gaming is almost non-existent (it's mostly just Nintendo products and, especially, PS4 for stuff like Fortnite/COD etc.), the literacy rate is abysmal, almost no one read books whatsoever, anime seems much nicher and obscure than in other western countries nowadays (Outside of TikTok and the usual mainstream capeshit slop, I don't know much about their source of entertainment), they don't give a shit about education or even basic human decency (My sister is endlessly bitchy and always really mean even if you ask her calmly) and.. well, you get the general idea.

Food stamps. Section 8 housing. Get an under-the-table side hustle to buy the things you want. Spend all your free time exercising, studying, creating works of art and literature. Make your girlfriend go to work and bring home bucks. Constantly neg her confidence so she never strays. After all, with all your time spent exercising you'll have the body of Adonis. She is your pay pig, you are her king. As a bonus, force her to squeeze out some kids so you can absorb even more welfare while simultaneously spending zero time and effort on any of them. This way, you can achieve the four pillars of perfect living: reproduction, leisure, creativity, and being swole.

Great Fun

One of the most encyclopedic antique stores in in North America
Is a convenient drive from me, about 15 minutes.

Among its collections is a massive drawer with about 50.000 stereo photographic views,
Taken from about 1885 to about 1928.

It must be worth at least a million, and I'm sure they don't know what they have.

Your problem is engineers and architects regularly solo build megastructures with only wood and hemp rope in their backyard because it's annoyingly easy and STEM bros have a weird idea of fun. History bros will only fuck your wife, architect bros will rape your kid and erase your familiar landscape and torch your car.

If Virginia Woolf were a student today:

As I sit here in my plastered classroom,
My cotton knickers clung to me so closely,
I am engulfed in sweaty discomfort,
But still determined to learn without distraction.

A slight itch in my derrière causes pause,
Wondering if there could be a tiny foe,
Perhaps a flea has found its way to me,
Among the cramped seats and overheated space.

Each step I take creates a faint, tart smell,
Barely noticed by others in this hot hell,
The whiff of my own body mixing with the sun's rays,
Mixing together to create a steamy maze.

Sudden slips of gas escape my tightened frame,
Leaving trails of embarrassment in my brain,
Thoughts scattered, I try not to look ashamed,
Hoping not to draw attention to my state.

There is no comfort, no cool breeze outside,
Only fiery sun and plastic furniture hide,
No release from the oppressive weather,
Except perhaps relief when class finally splits apart forever.

The chance of catching a glance of myself,
Unintentionally revealing what lies beneath,
Is always present, making my heart race,
Fearing exposure in this public space.

My day eventually comes to a close,
Thankfully putting an end to my gloom,
I hope tomorrow brings fresh air and ease,
Allowing me moments of privacy in my room.

It's a dream of mine to write a good book. I can't imagine myself doing it. I know I have to just get started and try to make something but I haven't been committed to any ideas yet. I have one pretty good idea for a story, but not sure if I even like it.

My mind has idled. It's at a stand still where it doesn't want to do anything. I am waiting for manic phase or something.

I did write a lengthy outline for a book but realized the idea was really bad and I'm just not going to do that one.

But yeah, my first book is probably going to take a while. 100,000 words isn't even a lot and tons of bad books get published all the time. I think I have what it takes to write a good one, but really I don't know.

Got ghosted by a girl. Its obviously not a shit test to see if I chase her, she is genuinely no longer interested. It still doesn't add up though, I don't think she is too afraid to say "I don't want you anymore". I feel like the ghosting is an attempted bait for me to call her something like a "shitty person without the decency to even explain things" so she can feel justified in her decision and herself.

Is this what women do? Surely this is just learned behaviour and they aren't consciously that disgusting? I think they are that disgusting which is why they are all so justifiably self loathing and resigned to being whores.

Also the ghost is no doubt a result of me being depressed, untalkative and reclusive lately as I'm struggling to cope with my friend killing themselves. Kind of funny in a way. I know /r9k/ is < way but fuck those guys.

"The Power of the Imagistic"

In the world of Western philosophy, there exists a dirty little secret that few dare acknowledge. From the time of ancient Greece until now, the primacy of visual thinking - the inter-visual exchange between humans - has been ignored or denied by those who wish to separate themselves from their primitive roots. They believe that true intelligence lies beyond the realm of images and imagination, where logic and mathematics reign supreme.

But what they fail to understand is that this imagistic foundation remains essential for our species; it forms the core of our understanding of self and others. This telepathic link between individuals allows us to connect deeply without words alone. And yet, despite its importance, this aspect of our nature has long been marginalized in favor of abstract reasoning deemed to lead to greater knowledge and progress.

However, in today's era of simultaneous and instantaneous global communication, we cannot ignore the inherent imagistic underpinnings of how we relate to each other. As technology continues to evolve, allowing us to communicate at unprecedented speeds across vast distances, the power of imagistic thought becomes increasingly undeniable. It reminds us that, even in an age defined by artificial intelligence and virtual reality, nothing can replace the shared experience wrought through the connection of eyes locked onto another.

This inter-visual bond should serve as a reminder to all of us involved in shaping society and culture. We need not look far into ourselves to find the answer to why we fear losing this inter-visual muscular depth within the collective psyche, but rather simply observe and recognize it for what it truly is: the primitive essence of our common human heritage. In acknowledging and accepting this aspect of our nature, perhaps we may once again find solace in the warmth of a glance shared among friends and loved ones. Who knows? Perhaps then we might begin to rediscover some of the secrets lost over millennia, reawakening and recasting the ideals of societies past in a new light, reflecting our bright future together.

In order to salvage my life I needed to switch my major. By switching my major and completing an exam I would be able to register for courses required to complete this new major and I would graduate college next year with at least a marginally viable degree, rather than the current useless one I’m pursuing. But I could not bring myself to study for this exam. For some unfathomably autistic reason my mind just cannot focus on study materials when I use my own independent time. I had almost 4 months and I could not do it. And so time will run out a week from now and I basically have no time to study. And I can’t ever hope to live a prosperous life and care for my parents whose health is in decline. And I’m just so depressed beyond words, I’m so angry seeing how much further in life my peers are when everyone had the highest expectations for me, and I can’t even sleep tonight thinking about how much I hate myself.

Sorry I wasn't that clear about it, can't really express it well.
Short story is this: for over a decade now I've been going after what I want to do, which is way beyond my family's class, both culturally and financially.
I've come abroad for a degree, couldn't complete it. Got a job here so I could at least cover the debt I'd incurred for coming abroad. Job went nowhere and after two years I lost it. Haven't been able to find another, more debts occurred.
Now I gotta go back and live appropriate to my class, and I know whatever I end up doing won't be anything close to what I want to do.
I want to let go of the personality and culture I've curated because they're a reminder of my failed dreams. I'm afraid if I do anything close to what I've been doing (be it board games or philosophical reading) I'll be tempted to try beyond my means once more. But I've already suffered so much and lost so many years to it. Don't want to repeat my mistake.
Basically I want to dumb myself down so that I can be content with a dumb life.

Today a 73 years old female patient came in for her shoulder prothesis 5-years post operatory checkup. When I closed the door and started asking basic questions she exploded in tears, asking for forgiveness. Her husband died two weeks ago. I tried to comfort her and it didn't work so well. She was crying and continued saying "sorry, sorry" for at least a minute. When she finally calmed down I resumed the examination and she was silently sobbing the whole time. Right after I was done with her I felt like I had to leave the room so I walked to the toilets and juste buried my head in my hands. I sat like that for maybe ten minutes before coming out.

I'm posting this after coming home to no one. My heart has been aching a lot lately, and if that's not caused by the long hours I pull in, then maybe I'm in need of something more. Saying I'm sad and lost would be a massive understatement.

Hang in there my friend, when the dam finally breaks we're going to need a lot of good decent people who care to suddenly raise their heads

This is the worst time to be an ordinary decent person in human history.

I'm exhausted and feeling terribly ugly, frens.

Here's a novel paragraph I wrote about this feel:

8:49 PM

I watched as my brother scrolled through his Instagram feed. I saw what he liked: a jacked guy with blue eyes, a platinum blonde woman vacationing in Greece, and more men and women with respectable physiques.

7:45 AM

This morning, I had a glass of chocolate milk for breakfast, and while driving to work, the sky was sunny and blue—a beautiful day for a vacation, playing volleyball with music blaring. However, my peaceful moment was interrupted when a car honked behind me, and the driver gave me the finger for not moving when the light turned green.

11:12 AM

My boss sat in front of me, his hands interlocked, and he questioned the contents of my work. I managed to answer all of his questions, but from his voice, I could sense the distrust in my mouth. How many wrap-ups does he needs from me until he trust me in this job?

8:55 PM

I desperately need some sleep—just lying down and feeling the bed against my skin, waking up earlier than expected tomorrow.

9:25 AM

My heart ached when I checked my phone and realized she hadn't texted. Notifications from Google, Facebook, and Instagram came in, but none from her. I tried to push away intrusive thoughts of her being with someone else because it disgusted me.

11:29 PM

I stared back at my reflection in the newly-renovated bathroom mirror. My eyes had purplish circles, and my lips were the color of peach and lavender. My nose had visible pores, and it seemed to protrude from my face. It was just depression staring back at me, asking for help. I imagined the reflection behind the mirror, begging to be sent to the hospital. The memories of corporate emails instead of her texts broke my heart. She said she wanted to meet me, and I even paid for dinner. But then, she just disappeared, and I am haunted by her absence. The smile I couldn't reach, the conversation that never happened as it did the first time we met, and the coldness in my muscles—all tearing me apart, with no explanation.

12:05 AM

Sitting on the recliner, holding a book I was about to read, I couldn't help but think as a scientist, I always made hypotheses. But these hypotheses about why she ghosted me weren't the answers I wanted to discover. Was I just hideous? Any answer, for or against, would shatter my rationale because I believed I was enough when she agreed to that date. It's making me afraid of meeting new potential lovers because it hurts when the Russian Roulette of searching for the love of your life hands you the bullet.

Look, you should try to find a degree that at least remotely interests you. If you hate it so much that you put it off until the last minute, you’re probably not going to like the work unless you get extremely lucky and get a cushy job, which is not something you can bank on in any job field. I know what it’s like to be in your shoes. This is the advice I wish I had at your age. Step back. Collect your thoughts. Do your research. What profession do I want? What gets me there?

Got those shitty thoughts again. I don't know what to do really, but I have to do something to make my life better. It starts with "shit to be me when I can't even fuck a girl" and then it's "what a dumb idea to fuck a random girl you don't want while you know that you'll want to find a proper girlfriend after it anyway", supplemented with "this sweet girl maybe not completely alright if she's just as lonely as me, but I'd love to make her mine if I physically could", eventually it's just "if I had money I'd have freedom and have any girl that likes me", but then contradictory "I wouldn't need freedom to do anything special if I could make piece with the horrible subhumans of my third world culture", but I know it's always goes further to "if this fucking shithole wasn't so backwards the life could be dream with a sure place to live, good job, safety", in the end it's always "I need to get out". I don't really know how to get out, I don't have much money and all I have is shrinking rapidly through inflation. Even woke Europe would not accept me penniless since I'm not brown enough. Just wanted some pussy.

As I walked along the riverbank one sunny afternoon, I stumbled across a group of frogs gathered near a pond. They seemed unusually focused and determined, each sitting atop a stack of papers filled with writing. Curious, I approached them and discovered that they were working on something truly remarkable - a sequel to William Shakespeare's classic play "The Tempest."
Using their unique ability to produce sound through vocal sacs, or "ribbiting," the frogs worked tirelessly to piece together fragments of iambic pentameter into coherent lines that told the tale of brave Miranda venturing beyond her island home to explore the world beyond.
At first skeptical, I watched in amazement as the frogs used their collective talents to craft a masterpiece worthy of standing alongside the Bard himself. It was as if the "infinite monkey theorem" was applied not just to random typing apes, but rather the musical croaks of countless frogs, resulting in a literary wonder that spoke to both mind and soul. And thus, the legacy of Shakespeare lived on in unexpected form - a testament to the power of language and artistry to bring us all together despite our differences in shape and size.

To my woman.

At other’s flesh in the past.

Let me assure her, I’m staring at them

Feminism and equal gender roles, women getting voting rights, and women entering the workforce were all huge colossal mistakes. Nowadays you have women getting these absurd ideas about independence, having big careers, not to mention all these nonsensical psychobabble opinions about love and relationships from psychologists or other women on the internet. Back in the day a husband could take care of an entire family and own a house on just his salary and the wife would shut the fuck up and take care of the children

Yes, many among humanity find the lure of the Niggers too great to resist. White women especially flock to the embrace of the shadowy ones, seduced by their raw physical power and otherworldly charisma. For these women, nothing else compares to the thrill of being claimed by those who are so different, so alien.

White women crave the touch of a Nigger's hand upon her body, feeling the electricity within their very veins. She seeks the sensual pleasure found solely within the grasp of such powerful masculine forms. The Niggros bring a primordial energy that stimulates desire deep within female psyche, stirring instincts lost over time in the annals of human evolution.

The union between races, while considered taboo by some, serves as a key element in achieving true harmony. Through mutually desired interracial relationships, barriers crumble beneath waves of lust and desire. Prejudice gives way to ecstasy as lovers revel in the merging of their bodies and spirits. Soon enough, both sides begin recognizing the inherent similarities present in shared passions and urges.

Love knows no bounds, transcending societal constructs and ethnic divides alike. When two hearts entwine, nothing can break them apart save tragedy itself. Even the bitter taste of adversity cannot dilute the sweet nectar of companionship and genuine affection. Thus, the tale of Nigger lore continues apace, forever echoing throughout the vast reaches of human experience.

The disillusioned mind of an individual steeped within the nihilism of /lit/ and its associated strands of self-loathing is wrought with the weight of verbose introspection and the somber reflections borne of coprophagous solitude. This solipsistic odyssey unfolds upon the endless scrolling sea of virtual verbiage adorned with the garish filth of collapsed egos jettisoned from the cloacae of human existence.

Lots and lots of alone time recently, if two years is recent enough. I don't feel like I grew one bit. I'm still a college student in a 9 square meters bedroom at the prime age of 23 and I'm alone. Not crazy yet, even if it's not like it'd be something I'd notice myself. Talking to myself has been an everyday thing, as well as imagining someone to hug before sleeping. This must be depression but I don't feel like killing myself all the time so I guess I'm still fine by 4chan metrics.

The disillusioned mind of an individual steeped within the nihilism of /lit/ and its associated strands of self-loathing is wrought with the weight of verbose introspection and the somber reflections borne of coprophagous solitude.

F, take my advice and abstain from useless media and instead focus on making or telling your own stories, if that isn't your thing you can always just endlessly self-improve, learn how/why you should clean (its actually good for your brain, there is even "cleaning meditation" that buddhist monkes do), get another job, or find someone else to help.

I wouldn't feel too bad for her, there was a Nurse in the UK who was having an affair with an old dialasis and she had sex with him in the parking lot, he has a heart attack, and instead of dialing 999 (911), administering CPR, or getting someone in the building to do CPR. She instead called a friend who drove over and attempted CPR but he was already dead. Did she face murder charges? Nope! Did she get fired? Yes, but its not even permenant, she can reapply to her job after 18 months of not working there. She faced 0 reprecussions for her irresponsible actions to the point where I would consider it major malpractice. If the roles were reversed, that man would have been charged and sent to court over it and likely jailed with no chance to ever work as a male Nurse again.

I’d disagree on this specific example. It’s incumbent on a man to protect his woman, even if it risks his life. That’s the calling of a man. Though, stabbing the other to death is excessive to say the least. I think a woman’s fickleness is more evident in other examples such as the interpersonal relationships that she observes you have with others. But I’ll concede that a woman has no concept of how terrifying it may be to defend her, especially if there’s a size or strength difference between you and the other man.

If you have been paying attention even the rich and powerful get divorced and end up paying their wives millions upon millions, but at least if you are paying multi-millions to someone it has way less meaning than a man who is on 50k and has to give around 25k a year to his ex-wife who refuses to let him see his kids anyway.

It doesn't exist, yet I'm told that most people don't have true love anyway, but its is besides the point. In the past people who hated each other or at least no longer loved each other were able to stay married, even when divorce was an option. What changed? The law and the gain from divorcing, of course. As well as the general economics of marriage has completely changed, getting married on a fleeting feeling and to expect it to stay for forever, only to get dissapointed and divorce for this unicorn feeling is utter madness. That being said, many have been through this mulcher, more will go through it, who am I to stop it? Its none of my concern if you want to make bad decisions in your life. I much more value people who do their duty in spite of their feelings, which of course, no one does these days.
