One thing I learned living in non-Western countries is that there is quite an amount of closeted gays. I mean that they have wife and children and everything. There's nothing that would implicitly tell you that they are gay. It is only through gossip that I learned who is gay. I think this is why nature gave every heterosexual man a functional gaymeter.

HER CHILD IS HER WORLD... BUT NOT FROM THIS WORLD!

Meet Sunny May Jenkins.
Sunny is a strong, independent woman from Crimson state. Like other single momes, she can rise her child alone but unlike your common "normal" single man, her child's father isn't from planet earth.
She cannot remember how or when but somehow she become pregnant. Her christian-conservative father has disowned her and her boyfriend leaves her just after birth since she child is half Human and half Alien.
For long time, Sunny assume the child as the (by-)product of an crazy Alien experiment. She spend a lots of money to spiritual mediums. After a while, one psych estalished a telepathic contact to the child father.

To their dismay, it turns out that the Alien who made her child isn't the Alien researcher she supposed. Instead of a space explorer, he is merely a Alien incel who couldn'd get laid on his own planet and traveled to other space just for his pleasure. Sunny feels disgusted and betrayed but she has to face reality.
It was her dream to discouver Alien life since ever. So, she agreed to be part of a "experiment" at which end her memories was deleted.

Now, she not only discouver Alien life... she has fight for justice since the Alien planet, Lyraans, considered her agreement to be part of the experiment of the Alien incel as an generall agreement.
Would the Alien court provide her justice (and child support) from the Alien father...?

Will someone stand up and be a REAL MAN and join in the responsibility?
Sunny May Jenkins is desperately searching a REAL MAN who can take both, be the starchild a good father and be the supportive boyfriend at her side.

As she doesn't able to reache the strange planet Lyraans, its hard for her to charge the Alien for child support.
As it turns out, the Alien father is currently even under arrest in a hellish place because he hooked up with another Alien female.
His family doesn't want to take responsibility. As it appears, for them, Sunny is just a "easy girl from a less developed planet who was a golddigger".

I feel like sooner or later it's going to bite western societies in the ass that literally nobody would be willing to die for them or even make other sorts of sacrifices for them nowadays if shit hit the fan. Not the degenerate liberal elite, not the millions of third worlders, not the ever-shrinking middle classes, not the native lower classes who are radicalizing more and more by the year. There's neither ideological nor financial glue to hold them all together, they are like a house of cards.

I wouldn't let that worry you. If it could be made obsolete by AI it was already a waste to put it on the page, even before AI existed. AI can only synthesize things from existing information, meaning anything that AI "makes obsolete" was already derivative and not worth putting out. That being said, if you have an idea that you believe in and think is worth working out you should do it. If for nothing else then to take away all doubt that it might not be as good an idea as you thought. It will at the very least be good for you and who knows, maybe it is a great idea, or maybe its a mediocre idea that leads to some more interesting ones in the activity of working it out. If all that makes the work of writing non-fiction worth while in your mind is money or recognition for being an original thinker you definitely shouldn't do it though.

Very well, thank you for asking.
Last time, we celebrated the first time after Corona, an old, traditional celebration. It was the 900th time. I'm sure 'Merca has a lot of events like that, right?
Perhaps this year I will visit our Christmas market, which has been held in this town since the dark ages of the Middle Ages. Every year, more than 1000 times now.

Sure, 'Merca has a lot of those things, don't it?
When I was a child, I was taught in a building that was 200 years old. We don't think of that as being very old. Because, you said it, it happend that our national states was just established in the 19. Century and after that, the forgot about all the traditions, customs and so on we used to have before this. Sadly.

At our university they taught people you know from your history books. To be precise, from the chapter on the Age of Enlightenment.
I mean, Thomas Jefferson was a great mind, Ben Franklyn is a worthy Dollarnote and a interesting author but unfortunately, they were born before the USA was founded. So, you forgot about them. Sadly.

I really don't know where else I could go if this place ever goes under. The kind of people I could discuss literature and history with IRL are few and those few are not really the types who I could have an honest conversation with about those two topics without having to hide my power level. Mainstream sites and channels are cancer and too normie for my tastes. And all the 4chan spinoffs seem weird, cult-like and ideologically straitjacketed, not to mention the practically certain glowie infiltration. Really all I want is a forum for discussing those two topics, where discussions don't get hamstrung every two seconds by midwits and hall monitor types with comments like "umm...wasn't Ezra Pound a fucking fascist?"

you've missed my point entirely, europeans use completely different metrics to evaluate their own history than ours. over there it's considered completely normal to take national pride in what are actually disparate, unconnected communities, but when WE do it it's bad. 1776 is of no greater significance to american history than 1861 is to the italians. and it's also worth pointing out that american history cannot be easily delineated from european history up until about 150 years ago. they were part of one continuity.

Truer words haven't been written today.
I still want to believe that there is a small, shady group of atomized and highly red pilled individuals who have not joined or left the trodden train of degeneracy and capitalist digitalism, giving unfelt punches and sabotages to the decrept western systems, lone wolves douted with the intellectual faculties of justifying their contrary actions, I want to say, individuals who are not conformist about this gay shit at all, working on the construction of independent isles of suburb houses and farms that have no tie to the system whatsoever, but that inside are blooming with cultured literature, a man sitting inside of it, dressed in a modern, but intelligent, cultured manner, like a jumper made of polypropylene, you get the image, philosophizing in his room.
What might fuel the expansion of their ideas centered around individual liberty, or whatever will serve the justification to disobey the shitwestern laws in what they command to every single individual, will not be their action, but their full-blown passivity, a passivity towards the system so large that they are breaking the national laws with it.
Recently the Argovian parliament, a small canton of Switzerland, had to settle with a handful of anons who refuse to pay mandatory insurance, by making a distinction of citizens between those who don't pay mandatory insurance because they can't, and the ones who don't pay mandatory insurance because they don't want to.
Switzerland is among the European countries who have preserved the core ideas of 18th Century liberalism the most, giving a plausible explanation as to how a Western country could have delt so deliberately with a bunch of citizens who refuse to obey the law because they felt so.
But the rest of the Western countries, although no longer governed by Jeffersons, by Washingtons, very well, to the present day, produce individuals douted with their ideas and thought. Thus, it is not unprobable that the rest of the Western countries, sooner or later, will have to, willingly or not, have to make concessions with citizens around constitutional laws as basic as taxes and mandatory schooling, wich will, with time passing, cave the preponderance and authority, currently unquestioned, of libshittism from the inside out.

Let us be careful to believe that this is due to a lack of intelligence; he has of jt, and applies it well to the satisfaction of his form of selfishness. His great political principle is independence, not that of his nation or tribe, but his own, that of the individual himself. To obey as little as possible in order to have little to give up on his laziness and his tastes, this is the great concern of the Guarani and the Chinook. Everything that is claimed to be noble in the Indian character comes from there. However, several local causes have, in some tribes, made the presence of a chief necessary, indispensable. They accepted the leader; but they grant him only the smallest possible guarantee of submission, and it is the subordinate who fixes it. He is disputed to the snippets of such a thin authority.

A nationality isn't an identity though. It's just a state, governmental seats so to speak. When an Italian says 'I'm an Italian', he doesn't mean that he identifies with being an Italian, he looks at it more like a technicality more than a way of thought or something because there is no such thing, or only in an idiom sort of way, like when an Italian makes a speech in front of Italians meant to appeal to everyone.

I'm with you on this. As was Robert Burton:
>WHAT I have formerly said of exercise, I may now repeat of sleep. Nothing better than moderate sleep, nothing worse than it, if it be in extremes, or unseasonably used. It is a received opinion, that a melancholy man cannot sleep overmuch; Somnus supra modum prodest, as an only antidote, and nothing offends them more, or causeth this malady sooner, than waking, yet in some cases sleep may do more harm than good, in that phlegmatic, swinish, cold, and sluggish melancholy which Melancthon speaks of, that thinks of waters, sighing most part, &c. It dulls the spirits, if overmuch, and senses; fills the head full of gross humours; causeth distillations, rheums, great store of excrements in the brain, and all the other parts, as Fuchsius speaks of them, that sleep like so many dormice. Or if it be used in the day-time, upon a full stomach, the body ill-composed to rest, or after hard meats, it increaseth fearful dreams, incubus, night walking, crying out, and much unquietness; such sleep prepares the body, as one observes, "to many perilous diseases." But, as I have said, waking overmuch, is both a symptom, and an ordinary cause. "It causeth dryness of the brain, frenzy, dotage, and makes the body dry, lean, hard, and ugly to behold," as Lemnius hath it. "The temperature of the brain is corrupted by it, the humours adust, the eyes made to sink into the head, choler increased, and the whole body inflamed:" and, as may be added out of Galen 3. de sanitate tuenda, Avicenna 3. 1. "It overthrows the natural heat, it causeth crudities, hurts concoction," and what not? Not without good cause therefore Crato consil. 21, lib. 2; Hildesheim, spicel. 2, de Delir. et Mania, Jacchinus, Arculanus on Rhasis, Guianerius and Mercurialis, reckon up this overmuch waking as a principal cause.

When capitists overblow the productivity of Pitalism with fake graphs and fake productivity overestimations, they are still bashing an argument done during the French revolution by the pro-monarchy fractions, that when the aristocracy is politically abolished, societies become more materially poorer.
It can be concluded that the purpose of feudalism was not the incrementation of productivity. This is a purely burgeois idea. The monetarization of time, this is the sole factor of how productive a society is.

What if I treat all "none fiction" as if it is fiction and interpret it as such? For example, freud is the embodiment of the lovecraftian tragic hero where he touched the truth but his brain broke and now all he can see is his moms vagina everywhere. This interpretation of his fiction allows one to read his essay on the gorgon as his ultimate torture of being made to solely exist in the sexual (animalistic) realm of the psyche.

Tetrically.
Revolutions, periods of anarchy, periods of false hopes and new states inferior to the ones before them, their slow degeneration to the lowest common denominator, policemen, incapable of enforcing the law onto everyone, violent towards the ones they catch.
Time passing, there's gonna be less and less policemen too.
At some point most cities will be ghosts, hideous weirdos here and there, some small but working societies of 100-400 people here and there, isolated from each other. Constantly threatened by evil gangs and incapable of dominating nature.
Most of these last societies will die in the most conceivably helpless manner.
Some might experience a few periods of false prosperity.
In the end however these will age and weaken too.
What's left now is a bunch of straggling hordes, going around nomadically around a devastated planet, eating worms and cockroaches and whatever they find, undernourished and generally weak.
And perhaps there might be a few groups among them happier than the others, handful of people who, by a miracle of some sort, are all strong, intelligent and capable of thriving in this environment.
A few violent interactions over a scarce resource will wipe this few happy groups sooner or later too.
The last ones still left at this point will be swept off by time alone.

Somewhere far away galaxies collide, children are born, new speciation events occur and yet none of that feels as meaningful or significant as watching this dumb little whore have her soul shit on by some ugly middle-aged man and be broken in every way imaginable.

Its November 21st 2023, the second day after my 31st birthday. Since I was a teenager I’ve found comfort in the idea of suicide. I thought, if my life goes poorly, if I fail, if I can’t handle my guilt, I can always end things on my terms. Here I am, an abject failure, an embarrassment, my many indiscretions still hanging over my head, and new darker thoughts every passing day. I believe killing myself to be necessary.
The idea is to go for a hike, find a secluded overlook to watch the sun rise or set, slice my stomach open and stab myself in the neck. Partially because I've been reading samurai books and am curious about the feeling all of those men felt throughout history, partially because I dont deserve the painless release of a gun. I’m conflicted on whether to write something for my family or friends. If I told them the truth, it would hardly bring them any comfort, and it would be embarrassing for some of those I’ve wronged. I’m hesitant even to share anonymously with strangers my actions which have led me to this point because it would require me to expose myself to the unfiltered thoughts of others on my feebleness.
I don’t know if or when I’ll be able to commit myself to this plan. I don’t own implements of death and I’m certain none of my friends would help me, and I don’t intend to lie and draw them into my problems unwillingly. I have no money, so in one of life's trademark ironies I have to fix my life somewhat before I can end it satisfactorily. I don’t know why I’m writing this, I understand it betrays me as just another impotent, celibate weaboo. Perhaps my embarrassing nature is profound enough it insists on public scorn.

Don't entirely get why. I have some suspicion that it's a case of excessive similarity. And also jealousy
Humans are like animals with environmental niches.
Through natural selection animals occupy separate niches to avoid conflict, and when two occupy the same niche (consume the same foods or example) there is conflict.
In the same way we specialize in groups, so if two individuals are too similar in personality there is inevitably conflict.
It is inevitable i see the phenomenon happen in any kind of social group

is it even worth trying to find a spiritual path/truth or is it just an endless time sink? Feels as though no matter how much one searches, there is never anything solidly there that will satisfy the mind. I have seen people from all denominations of different religions hop around between different belief systems claiming that what they now follow is the truth and what they were before was wrong. Is it better to just admit defeat to the fact that some things are unknowable, some things will always be incomprehensible to man, and that in a somewhat Lovecraftian way any god would probably make you go insane if you could comprehend the sheer alienness and power such a being would possess? Maybe bloodborne and Lovecraft novels broke my brain a bit, but I am someone who is naturally drawn to the spiritual, occult, esoteric - so I have done a lot of searching, but I return to a stance of humans aren't cut out to perceive such things, maybe if something provided divine insight? What is the answer, should I meditate and spend time in silence, just observing the night sky? When looking at the ocean or the sky I feel the most at peace and the most connected to nature.

Had this idea for a sci fi comedy novel/visual novel about 2 lawyers who work for robots and have to prove the crime was done by a human and not a evil rebel murder robot

Main characters are a moderatly gtumpy middle aged tall af dude who still dresses like a teen rebel punk and is stupidly self isolationist (he also drinks a lot of beer and believes in a bunch of shitty conspiracies) and his sidekick, a blonde american man who carries around a katana and dresses in japanese clothing, is mega into anime and speaks broken japanese

Prosecutors are increasingly goofy caricatures who do uncalled for shit

Appealing to ethics and morality in an argument is cowardly because morality is always ultimately defined by the status quo and its relations of power, therefore appealing to it is the equivalent of throwing in the towel of rationality and just trying to force your opponent into taking positions where he is forced to acquiesce to your position or else face the social consequences of defying the status quo. It terminates thought by appealing to emotions, consensus and authority which cannot be argued or reasoned with. It's also cowardly because both parties are aware that it can only be used by those who are defending the consensus, using that advantage is extremely underhanded if an argument genuinely intends to be seen as a conflict of ideas.

I'm 25. Earlier this year, I noticed my appearance was changing, but I thought "Ehh I'm probably seeing wrong" so I took vitamins & forgot about it.

Now at the end of the year, I have aged considerably. I went from early 20s to mid 30s in appearance, like a guy from Red Dead 2. It became so bad, I've had to stop looking at mirrors entirely. Today I took a peek out of curiosity, and despite fixing my sleep and diet it's only gotten worse, and I now have 3-4 clear lines under my eyes. When I emote with my face, new lines are trying to come in too, like another line under the eye & the nasolabial fold. This year I also began losing hair, & I started taking finasteride.

I really don't know what to do, I feel like I'm literally decaying. Every time I see myself my heart just breaks, the reaction is either panic, or just sadness

Thank you anon. It's not so much a dilemma as it is a consequence of my state of mind at the moment. I'm afflicted by certain things at the moment which is why I think about monastic retreat. Though, there are moments during such afflictions, which I think is temporary sobriety, when I feel a disgust and distance from things that otherwise want to draw me in. It's a weird state, like you enter into a third-person mode of observation. At any rate, I'm probably a coward like that other anon says. A genuine desire for the monastic life is for the love of God not merely because you see the ridiculousness of things around you. I probably don't love God enough to be a true candidate for monasticism. All I can really do is grit my teeth and go through what I'm going through until God delivers me, if He wants to. However, I sometimes sense a part of me which is at peace with not being married at the very least.

Thank you, God bless you. Sometimes I want to be left alone but other times God is just too irresistible to walk away. I've once asked God why do even You want anything to do with me. There's deep conflict within me. I've grown accustomed to internal conflict and the days on which I'm not conflicted and in some sort of psychological distress feel strange and lack vigour and vision. It's like if I'm not feeling disgruntled and melancholic, something is off. Part of my affliction is that literally everything in the world wants to drag me down and if you realise that you also realise that the spiritual warfare against is constant. You literally have to check every though that enters your mind which becomes exhausting very quickly. On top of that you constantly have to stamp on the typical lusts of youth that being in your early to mid 20s brings you - that warfare is constant too when you're walking around the city and the more you're fighting the more this war rages stronger. I also have other issues in my life which come as a direct consequence of who my parents and the milieu I've been raised in which has brought me emotional and physical issues which I don't really want to go into here. My single hope is that Christ at least sees I'm trying despite me being a coward. I sometimes also wonder whether I'm just making a big deal out of nothing - make mountains out of mole hills.

They were probably older and that affected your perception. There's always a feminine side, though.

What's happening is that the self-as-experience cannot separate what it experiences from what it is while the self-as-awareness cannot prevent certain phenomena from being experienced once it becomes aware of them; the experiencer and the experience are unfortunately united and through this unity contamination of the experiencer occurs; this also extends to fantasy and dreams, which are experiences projected by the experiencer and thus imbued with a certain power different from that of ordinary experience. The experiencer, submerged in that which he cannot separate from himself, finds himself sublimating what is brought to him into what he brings forth from himself. And it is this which is so deadly; what was once seen, especially through a third party (as in video, images, et cetera), now becomes projected from inside to outside.
