>tfw you have many good ideas an eanna write again but youre to tired and depressed to do it

Is there any hope for us?

These are the golden ages of bohemian lifestyles. Nab those Neet bux, hang out with homeless people and street kids, they will love all of your shit and help you figure out how to properly express what you feel you can express to those who haven't had the same experiences or studied the same things as you. Quit complaining and start rebelling against the system that has enslaved you, set you in chains against your own ego, and taught you to disparage your self and wallow in your self-pity. Rise up and appreciate the world as an act of spite against an uncaring, irrational universe. Grab onto that pain you feel and learn to love it.

Step 3: disparage the neet
Step 4: appreciate the neet
Step 5: dream of neet
Step 6: become the neet
Step 7: ???

Drop this idea, try to be a well-read person instead.

Is there a single “NEET” who has produced a recognized work of art in the last decade?

How is it even possible to read fourteen hours straight? I seriously doubt this is a good idea. He should try to find a meaningful job and read on his free time, like most people successfully do. As—sorry if I look immodest—I do. It will leave him enough resources to travel and discover the world, in addition to have an extended access to knowledge.

That's all fourteen hours a day reading yields in argumentative skills?

>>8049064
Okay, that's a nice lifestyle, but I still doubt he would visit a foreign country, or even leave his house. His income may force him to stay where he is—pretending to be disabled then hiking, for example—and I doubt an hour not spent working or commuting would be an hour dedicated to writing or reading. How would he pay for a plane ticket? An hotel? His food? His medical expenditures? I don't think it's a healthy way to live.
