I create a microcosm of tolerable things and go full Huysmans. Then when I start to lose appreciation I venture into short tours of the outside world. Normally a visit to the grocery store will fill me with deep gratitude for spending the rest of my time in my little hub. A proper venture such as a social call will fill me with deep gratitude for the gentle glow of non-suffering in the absence of such calls.

I heartily recommend it. Bonus point for living in a high rise so that you can stand in front of the window and see the tiny cars and people moving around below at a safe distance while you gently puff your pipe.

It is but I think it's cute.
Anon, don't be so saaad.
There are beautiful things in this world.
Don't even mind the things that are not or at least fucking change something about it.
We are both so awfully privileged.

Why was that directed at me? I displayed no emotions in my post. How did you come to the conclusion that I am sad?

>> No.3586926

>>3586905
Perhaps I was just projecting.
I'd be pretty sad if I assumed that everyone was apathetic to me.
It's great if you're not. You might be a sociopath.
It's sad if you can't admit that you aren't.

Considering that the way something is experienced is of greater importance than what is experienced, why would you say that he is is privileged? Because he has an internet connection and is on 4chan? Perhaps his mental condition doesn't allow him to feel good at all. No luxuries are going to compensate for that.

Everyone is apathetic to you in the long-run. They might care about you for a short time, maybe for a few months, or a few years, or for their entire life, but eventually all things return to their default setting: apathy.

In a high-rise you also have the ability to read J.G. Ballard and make yourself feel completely mentally unhinged for a few hours.

It probably is but once you actually realize that other people are doing much wore, you get to appreciate your privileges.
I have fucking schizophrenia myself and I'm feeling alright and it does sometimes feel like a curse and I also often believe that people with depression are whiny bitches. Luxuries do help, at least I can deal with the illness and still receive food, shelter, the fucking internet with all kinds of resources, that might in turn help me with me condition. Anon has the opportunity to do whatever he wants to do and I don't want him to miss it.

It's going to doom us. This generation will largely be emotionally, intellectually stunted freaks, incapable of creating or maintaining a civilisation. Like Icarus we shall briefly soar, buoyed by boundless knowledge and interconnectedness, and then, like Icarus, our wings will burn and we'll fall back down to the surface.

How can you blame someone who cared for you their whole life for not caring enough?
What about your mother?
Do you even care about anyone?
If not, what's so wrong with apathy? If so, how can you generalize?

It doesn't seem like such a bad way to go. I don't think we can fight our creeping decadence successively. Might as well pursue it to it's logical end.
