I am tired of people bitching to me about the idea that we just have to "deal with it" regarding the present shitty state of the world. There are certain governments and institutions that are responsible for the way the world is and every last one of them could be destroyed and toppled. It wouldn't even take a huge amount of work. No government is invincible, no institution is invulnerable. Even the United States government could be undermined and destroyed. The commies did it themselves, it could be done out from under them in turn, and we could be ruled by No One who is currently in power.

I don't believe in reincarnation. If this happened whoever "I" became next would not really be me anyway.
If I could go further than simply preventing my birth, I would. I envision a retroactive cessation of existence which does not allow for the possibility of reincarnation, honestly.
Something like Buddhist nirvana, but rather than ending suffering or realizing boundless bliss I would simply end completely: the ground of my existence would be gone and the possibility for me to exist, or for the concept of me to even be intelligibile, would also be gone.

I have already written a proposition here on /lit/.

Econ and finance. I’m not a full prof though. I teach part-time and am part-time staff, so I’m already doing office work about half the time. I wasn’t totally ignorant but in regard to the things I have in mind which really sour the career for me, I was ignorant. I didn’t intend to enter academia as student. I ended up here by accident after trying another career first. It is better than most corporate gigs even though it pays less (which really sucks because I’m in a high cost of living city).

No I do about 50% of the effort of each for 50% of the full-time pay. Honestly, I make a lot more than a lot of people at my institution because the staff job pays pretty well and the work is not very time consuming. I think I will switch to staff full-time if I stick around. It’s shitty though because, at least from what I’ve seen, you have to have faculty experience to have any future in administration. In order to get faculty experience you need to knock everything out and become a prof almost immediately. If you start on staff or spend too long in adjunct hell you get stuck there.

I think it’s obvious that your single biggest problem is how you spend your time. You don’t do things with your time that even allow for the possibility of meeting people. You probably have a pretty severe internet addiction. My advice, honestly, would be to try to find a part-time job in some setting that allows you to be a little social, like a restaurant or a bar or a store or anything other than like IT basement dweller really. Just gradually get to know people through that and if there is someone you click with, which there probably will, ask them after a few months to hang out, get a drink, play a game, whatever. Alternatively, join some group activity and resolve to get good at it. It doesn’t matter if it’s run club, a BJJ gym, a book club, a dinner club, a dance class, wine tasting club, cooking class, a car club, whatever. Just go consistently and commit to getting good at the activity. Personally. I would recommend the classes because they only meet for a few weeks at most so if you find yourself embarassed it’s over in a few weeks and that’s that. That is pretty much the step by step process of how to meet people socializing. But the real question you will have is how to do all this comfortably, without crippling anxiety and cynicism. The answer is simple. You commit to honesty and open yourself to good things. If you do that, you allow yourself to be in a situation where you can meet someone and have your attitude be like “yeah I’m a bit of a loner and even though I’m a bit awkward and embarrassing and maybe even depressing I’m trying to make a connection and I’m actually open to that good outcome happening, which is a happy thing”. People will naturally gravitate to people who can balance honesty with positivity. Too often loners and introverts continue to fail because they always have an attitude that assumes the negative. They become depressing people who aren’t really looking for something enjoyable or fun, they just want a Misaki to drop in and change their lives. But it doesn’t work like that. People are also looking for something from you, just like you’re looking for something from them. They want a friend, and not a therapy patient. You have to be open minded enough to let a friendship happen.

Try that.

of course, there have been many attacks on protestantism but i wonder if anyone has ever explored or at least identified this specific weakness before. it is something i would like to loosely define as a kind of "structural theological decay", that is, due to the lack of a centralized organizational superstructure defining things as this or that theologically, as the many various catholic councils have done from Nicene to Constantine, the protestant will initially be very similar to catholics, but over time turn into something very different

the reason way is simple, and is the cause for the many upon many denomenations that plague the modern Christian world: whenever protestants disagree, there must by definition be this great temptation to just split off and form a new denomenation, again and again, until the starting point is entirely unrecognizabls. this i think, is why there are still very "conservative" (for now at least) denomenations and the rise of these more "progressive" denomenations at least theologically that range from Jesus to was not really God (the Arrian heresy rises again) to Jesus-was-just-a-teacher-and-was-all-metaphor-bro and even so far as the you-can-use-female-pronouns-fod-God crowd. it is incredible the depths men have in regards to twisting scipture to fit their own materialistic goals, especially political ones

a family member of mine, a protestant, would always tout at me that he goes to a "Bible-based" church but to me that seems incredibly dangerous, as "Bible-based" does not mean "Bible-only" and one is subject to random people making stuff up and twisting words along with translation games to fit their narrative, and not God's narrative. truly as corrupt the Catholic church is alleged to be, at least they haven't budged much on key theology (Vatican 2 made changes yes, but core theological theory and the catechism ramained largely the same). every game needs a referee, every court a supreme court, there must be definitive decisions on things rather than a celebrity pastor telling you what's what, rather than the official word of a one true universal church built up over thousands of years

I live in jersey city.
I used to say "near nyc" or "a suburb of nyc" to anyone not in the tri state area, since nobody knows where Jersey city is.
But for some reason that makes people think you're being uppity or a social striver, instead of trying to tell people where you are geographically.
So now I say northern new jersey.
This weird social thing where I can't say "a suburb of nyc" and people look down on new jersey, are my only complaints about it.
Its beautiful; I'm right next to a park; right next to everything; good food; lots of happy young families. Very rapidly gentrified affer I moved here. I can get to the center of nyc within 20ish minutes.

After a lifetime of mental health interventions, concussions and stress, I feel spent at 34. It feels like I'm exploding in this whimpering way, every day is a tremor less strong than the last, and somehow my tolerance for the anxiety and the fits of rage diminish with each wave. I'm losing my ability to feel and yet the internal intensity, relative to my other emotions, remains blaring and drowning. All I can see it phenotypy. I've been locked into this beginning with reading about my psychiatric issues as a teen, and being measured up and down. I'm not an incel, because it goes further than that, and because I don't hold women in contempt. Worthlessness was encoded in me because I'm one of billions of shards of chaff that were created to be trumped in the endless heterogametic contest that defines our nature. If pleasure is out of the question because my prefrontal cortex is atrophied and my dendrites and receptors are singed, what am I doing? A noose around my neck has proven too frightening every time. Catholic training left a whisper in the back of my mind that scares me out of a confrontation that ends in me being down to hell. They raised me to seek beauty, and love, and I know I can neither make the former nor live the latter. The suffering isn't unique either, it's mandatory and inevitable, because without it the power and beauty of real people is without its elevating contrast. I wish more than anything that I could make something concrete and independently wonderful.

you do have my sympathy though anon, religion is supposed to better people, that's one of the key tenets: that people are fallen, and we live in a fallen world. it is just a pity that too often religion is confused between religious teaching and religious followers. religion is meant to be perfect, like mathematics, but obviously you can have bad math and bad followers. it is a shame to all religions when they give faith a bad name

Not really. I did as a kid because I had no friends. For a long time, I was excessively reliant on the models for a way of understanding myself. Then my diagnoses were anulled, excepting OCD. They don't know what I've got, "Mixed Personality Disorder", which is a cop-out. I don't need their conceptions. All I know is that I am abnormal and pretty retarded. Verbose for a lack of concision and inability to contain ideas, excessively nervous, lots of disordered thinking, incapable of socializing. I feel jumbled all the time, there's not really a platform upon which to cultivate identity. The brain damage from my "mild" concussions didn't help. My instability precedes them.

trying actively to get a woman to cheat has probably been my most evil act. it never actually occurred but it was a nearly year long process that ending up breaking me (and presumably her bf more so than her). it's wild watching yourself transgress and in a semi-sober states actuate a plan so contradictory to your morals. there is some type of social alchemy that occurs once start to transgress in this way that is very strange. one the one hand, you go insane because you can't reconcile good/evil, but on the other hand you gain a sort of upward spiral of social dominance that feels almost mystical at times. There's energy released with every transgressive act and it certainly changes you. In some sense it's about seeing through the spell of social construction and mundane life by going to extremes either via drugs or evil deeds. all in all once you go far enough you know that Christ is the truth.

Every great person has died and everyone on this earth right now has lived a comparable amount of time to you, relative to world history, and therefore their time to learn and study the world has been similarly limited.

People have a much weaker grasp on morals than they think, and yet they strongly believe in their righteousness both through their sheltered lives insulating themselves from difficult decisions, and selective blindness towards unsettling truths. I know how true this is, because I know how damn hard it is to willingly see the truth. How distressing it is. How much sacrifice is involved. It is fucking hard if you've spent your whole life in this dead machine society.

You quite literally are. That's the worst part about modern society. It ails us with constant suffering, but provides just enough of its socially-acceptable entertainment to stifle frustration. It is a fucking fight to try to be a human being, because nobody around you cares. They just go "haha everythings getting worse, politicians should do something and I want to kill myself!" and then they go play videogames and watch tiktok instead of DOING something. When our children are forced to finally deal with this shit instead of waiting for their obviously corrupt and bought politicans to "pass a law" because everything has fallen apart so much that they are working 80 hour weeks and are no longer able to consume their salving entertainment, will they forgive us for doing nothing? What was our excuse? But of course the rebuttal: Why should we care?

It definitely is a slippery slope. The hierarchical contexts matters. Powerful/desirable people cheat constantly, it's in their repertoire of social games for the pursuit and maintenance of dominance. They can do plenty and stop, or never consider stopping and others will have to eat shit. Combat in the upper echelons never ceases. On the other hand, for regular clowns like myself, it's an underhanded tactic that is seldom worth bucking the rules for. You get inured to the fear of getting caught, and chase greater transgressions. Maybe a bit of autodenigration in there, too. I hate myself, so I make myself into a worse person.
