Also the real answer to your original post is that no one with authority thinks your suggestion is good because it literally combines the worst of all possible solutions.

The conservative would be unhappy because you are letting them in.
The liberals would be unhappy because you aren't respecting their culture/diversity.
The immigrants would be unhappy because they have to put up with your infuriating christ cucking.

Besides, what's stopping them from just telling you to fuck off?

I can speak to the suicide and depression talk, people have been brought up in a culture where being a victim grants you the floor in social settings for attention. Claiming to have certain mental issues opens up a lot of dialogue and has made a very serious issue into a trivial one, because of the amount of people using it for attention. Like in 'Oblomov' they talk about how someone without real problems creates mental problems so as to have some drama or to fulfil some mental emotional need. People who are actually struggling in third world countries that have to work full time doing some shitty job for 1 dollar a day aren't complaining about mental illness at anywhere near the same rate as westerners because we have too much freedom and comfort has made us weak minded.

Why is it that all over reaching, incoherent, unfalsifiable, and just plain stupid academic theories / areas viciously denounced unless they conform to the preferences of left wing critical theory lovers. Why can't people see that they're all charlatans?

I see topics trying to decipher Hegel and I don't know who's trolling who or if the posters are all low IQers. Rather than try to understand the internal logic of Hegel, why not treat it as a black box and ask its practitioners to make falsifiable predictions with it. I'm sure that's fucking easy for them since they never shut up about how Capeetal / History is explained by their theories. If they manage to predict things then we have a good sign that the theory isn't self referential nonsense.

Of course what I am describing is feasible yet I am humouring them because they'd never do it and I know right this second there are outraged people who will say I am stupid. They will say the theory shouldn't have to do anything. And then I will ask, "So why should your theory be given attention or government subsidies over the infinitely many possible other theories?" Then I will get no answer.

I feel hot as fuck, and look in the mirror and see my face melting.

Then I try to get help. I grab at people and they ignore me until I pin down a girl and projectile vomit in her face until she dies.

I am so scared.
We are going to be 4 degrees warmer by 2060. Sea levels will rise 3 meters this century. Food production will plummet by 50%. Disease will spread. Storms and flooding will cause nuclear accidents.

Depression ever consumes my mind, and I can't make it stop. I want it to stop, but it will never stop... no, I'll never stop it. I want someone to fix me, but I refuse to try and fix myself.

I see myself in the mirror, but I don't see my *self*. I see this... imperfect chunk of meat, this blob of fat and wasted potential. I don't see me in the mirror, and I never have. Or, I've disowned the fact that that's me, and I just don't want to own up to it.

My father was abusive... or he was trying to fix me in the only way he knew how. He's called me his worst child, after I said as much during a breakdown. I ended up quitting college and moving back with my mother, since living with him was driving me to suicide. That 3 day long drive, I had the radio cranked to the highest volume it could be, because I didn't want to think. I still don't.

My mother is getting better. She had a stroke, a year and a half ago, christmas night; I was across the country at my father's house. The only reason I knew about it when it happened was because I was up in the early hours of the morning playing a call of duty game I had just gotten for christmas; my irresponsibility on that night still makes me wonder, what would have happened if I were not awake to get everyone moving.

Not that that matters. Now, I get paid for taking care of her. But I feel so... worthless. She's getting better for me being here, but I don't feel love. I never have. People have told me they loved me, and I don't feel it, and I feel subhuman for it. Not even my high school girlfriend made me feel loved. Not even a college friend, flat out telling me that she loved me, broke my shell.

I've started taking a journal, and I'm going to start writing, because if I don't get these feelings out I'm going to start going insane. I feel like I'm a hair's breath away from becoming unbalanced, unstable. I'm a good person; I'm smart, I'm charismatic, I'm funny... but, that is *what* I am. I've been told so many times of these three things, and more, but all I can think about is just how unambitious I am, how I want so badly to be fixed, but refuse to try and fix myself.

An image cannot describe how I feel, and neither can I.

There's several things on my mind right now. The first thing on my mind, is I want to finish reading this book Hunger. I'm not particularly enjoying it, but I feel devoted to finishing it, because I want to improve my reading ability. Part of me thinks that perhaps I would read better if I enjoyed it more, but I think that also part of being a good reader is just being able to digest what's in front of you; that will be very helpful for going back to college.

I am going back to college pretty soon, after an absence of 2 years. I am going to try to take a placement test for English. I am somewhat confident in my writing abilities, but I am not used to speaking extremely concisely, and with proper grammar. I feel that I can express my ideas though, I have no problem writing out my thoughts. So I'll just have to see what happens. If I get into English 102, I will be happy; hopefully it means I get to skip a semester of English so I can get to stuff I actually care about, like poetry.

I have been thinking about my own personal writing too. I feel that I have run out of things to write about, so I haven't written anything on my blog in quite a while now. It's been months. This peturbs me, because I enjoy writing. I also feel weary of always writing when there's things that trouble me, when I'm in a bad mood. I would like to write about thoughts which I think are interesting; my writings start to feel like nothing more than angsty rants, which are at best well spoken.

Another thing, is that all of this going back to school business has been giving me one hell of an appetite, and I really don't want to gain weight before I go back to college. My confidence goes way up when I feel thin and beautiful.

I'm in my first year of grad school and already feel a bit worn down by it. I haven't had a proper holiday since Christmas so I'll do that soon I think.
I just broke up with my gf of three years, amicably. We both really like each other a lot. We've tried breaking up in the past but we're too fond of each other and too physically compatible and it's never lasted more than a day. But now we're long distance, and we're both tired of the problems in our relationship, so I think it'll stick. It's a weird cocktail of feelings. On the one hand, I'm "free": she was very demanding of my time, and now I have it all to myself. I can watch the films I like, travel where and when I please. On the other hand, cooking and cuddling with her made me happy.
It really makes me hate myself, because over the last few months all I could think is how I want to escape this relationship. Now, I find myself only nostalgically remembering the good times. I can't be content.

I just read more than half of The Sea by John Banville. I periodically try out contemporary Lit. Fic. To try to be more current, or in order to pursue a career in writing. I always regret it because the human soul of our age is abysmally dull and narcissistic. Banville's prose is undoubtedly good, but there's no plot, the shuttling between time frames is not purposeless but trite, and the characters are all for the most part uninteresting. Protag is a writer, struggling with grief trying to track down old crushes now that his wife is dead. Tedious. He beats his dog. Like he realizes how bland his life is he has to add some edge for its own sake like pepper or some shit. Motherfucker, get some better ingredients.

The reading class is middle; I am not. Their compulsory narcissism requires that they "relate" to lit, which is why dullards like Banville succeed.

Thinking about brown-nosing and rubbing elbows with these fucks is becoming a major deterrent to the drive I need to succeed myself as a writer.

Classics and weird fic. are the only thing I enjoy anymore. This populism of the arts has ruined any opportunity for a true genius to emerge.

the logos is probably like a glass object that surrounds a source, or rather the source, of light

it is the prism through which sheer energy is given form and substance, those two ideas being actually the same, and shapes the sheer radiation into complex specifics

the word is the concet is the archetypal shape, and it is a unity, a duality, and then a trinity

take all your occult reasoning and fashion it into geometrical images surrounding the total absence of geometry, that is to say sheer sheer-ness, light, radiating, the anticipating energy which wants to manifest that only waits with anticipation for god to command its formative patterning, ...

the planets in their orbits, the distances between them as they trace their paths, are always, when considered as a totality, unique in each moment, they do not repeat

the ratios they form when given numerical significance are always unique at any moment, there seems to be a desire for progressive novelty even in the progress of the heavens, of the celestial bodies which define our fates (and don't think those dots in the sky don't matter), in fact all the dots matter, but the nearer matter more.

That which is near matters more, to be sure.

What we call Jupiter is a kind of Jungian archetype, which has its place in the unfolding human drama, though probably unknown to nearly all, besides perhaps some obscure theosophist.

Life is part of a proper, larger pattern. That we cannot condense that pattern into the human brain seems like a defeat to many humans, but why should we want the totality of things to be so easily understood? Do we not want an adventure that far supersedes the lives we already inhabit? If so, our lack of understanding should be felt as a welcome incapacity. Until we unite with God in the capitol G sense, we have many more millennia to the power of millennia to go. Does that sound tiresome, too much? Suppose you were God, you'd create the grandest adventure possible for yourself, would you not? Thus is the state of things. The time is immense. The way that any given individual character figures into the whole mandala is beyond the individual character's capacity to know. Know only that you figure into it. Because you exist. You, conscious, body-inhabiting, avatar of the divine, exist and are performing EXQUISITELY the task set out for you to do, because the action of existence is only ever exquisite. That is to say, in a larger pattern of beauty that we as of necessity have yet to comprehend.

Limitation is one of the primary functions of beauty.

To experience something as a totally new thing, that is incredibly beautiful. That is you being born into this place, not knowing where or what you were in the infinitude before.

Don't get married, abandon university, abandon school, work a minimum wage job and get the cheapest residence possible, remove your obligations to your family, and then...discover yourself with your newfound space.

Certainly you still have to put up with the hell that is work, but that is 95% of humanity. You can feel one with your fellow men in this sense, the suffering is shared, you are not alone.

If you feel inadequate because you've "failed" insofar as society prescribes failing or succeeding, then that is good. Society knows fuck all about really succeeding. Succeeding is a motion towards self expression. Which has nothing to do with being a cashier. Or a dishwasher. These things are like catalysts which it seems we must experience to fuel our rage that our time has been taken from us. Feel and experience that rage, for many years, and discover yourself.

I feel you, man. I've recently been diagnosed with ADHD-I, but not until I failed my first year of university. I managed to work myself to philosophical breaking point by constantly questioning, breaking things down, taking the meaning from things until I couldn't see a way out. But I insisted on finding a way out ny myself. Other people were useless, they didn't understand, or I thought they didn't. But my issues were much simpler than I imagined. I realised that feelings control thoughts, and not so much the other way.

Halfway through second year, I found some people who understood, actually tried to see things my way. I was called into a meeting with a tutor whose job was basically to tell me off for not working hard enough. I got angry with him for presuming so much, for being so condescending, and he listened. I told him my problems - philosophical ones too - and then he offered to meet with me to discuss philosophy. This was the one thing I needed. It's what I needed so desperately. I don't think I'd be happy now if he hadn't taken the time out of some of his days to talk to me about, frankly, my passion. I study physics. It can get too much - too much ignoring the obvious, glaringly obvious questions that are just not entertained by the course.

And that's not to forget my counsellor. He was potentially a rare kind, but he came at my problems in a refreshing way, making me see clearly where I was going wrong in my thinking. He was sympathetic to my overanalysis of everything.

So now I'm sitting on the days, waiting for my second year results. It's taken me longer than I expected to recover - and I expect I shall never recover, and instead become a philosopher - so I'm anxious. I had dreadful nightmares last night, phasing in and out of sleep so that I barely noticed which state was which. Every night I remember things that were, if not traumatic, disturbing. I take it out on a piece of paper, but I fear I'm just encouraging myself. I don't want to end up in that pit of anguish again.

God, if I get a 2:1, I'll be fucking ecstatic. Over the moon, euphoric, all the fucking cliches winning athletes use. Imagine the look on my tutor's face. Imagine the look on my fucking face. And if I don't get it? I don't know. There are options, but none as good as if I just get the grades in the first place.

This. It was over half a decade before I finally sat down to write that book that I've been wanting to write. It sounds hyperbolic, but it's not; it changed my life. I was steady writing/editing basically from late August 2016 until early May 2017. Over 8 months, and I finished 6 books as well as got a 7th one roughly 1/4 finished. I then sort of hit a wall and spent around a month and a half in which I barely wrote anything, but I've been back into writing for almost a week now, and that 1/4 finished book is now approaching 1/2 finished. I've enjoyed writing for over half my life, but now I love it, and it's almost consumed my life. I accept this consummation willingly. Yeah that word may very well have been used incorrectly but I like the sound of it; call it poetic licence.

Oh yeah, and it's also pretty kickass that I've made roughly $130-140 between mid-March to late-June. I don't care that I might be a long ways from being a full-time author, I very much enjoy writing books, and I'm getting paid to do it. I kept my first $20 bill and I think I might just frame it someday. US Dollars, Canadian Dollars, British Pounds, and even Australian Dollars, all within that first $20 bill. Money spent to read my work through ebooks and KENP page reads. I actually got $36 or so that day, and the other $16 went towards some Mongolian Beef... should have gotten a side of rice to go with it, as advised, but it was none the less delicious and I gave a pretty good tip. The waitress was actually a big WoW nerd, believe it or not. I don't play that game myself, but it was pretty cool, even kinda hot. A MILFy woman who is also a hardcore gamer. What an interesting day that was...

Anyways, yeah, just fuckin' start writing. I wish I'd have written that book years ago. By now I'd have over a dozen books finished, probably at least 3 series on the go, and would probably already be a full-time writer or at least making hundreds of dollars a month. Who would say 'no' to that?!

I'm writing a short story but it's all wrong. I can't figure out what I want from it. I started out writing it as a rant by the protagonist about someone he's jealous of, but it isn't working that way, probably because listening to a rant is boring in the first place. Maybe I'll write it as a dialogue between them instead. If I want that to work I have to make the two characters philosophy students though, otherwise their discussion would be unintelligible jargon. I don't know if I can pull that off since I've only ever taken an intro to philosophy class. I'd have to do a lot of research. But the story really does feel hollow without referring much to the characters' field of study. Maybe I should put this one on hold.

Only the worst, the most despicable and disgusting that can be put to the English language. The most wretched and vile, the most wrought with disgust, the most foul as can be imagined... genre fiction. BEHOLD MY INEPTITUDE FOR WHICH I AM PAID FOR, AND WEEP!

But nah, I'm enjoying some rum, and I quite love to write. I know /lit/ looks down upon genre fiction but I enjoy writing it and truth be told my favourite genre to read is often historical fiction which I will be tackling one of these days, undoubtedly dedicating it to none other than Bernard Cornwell. If you'd like to know what I write SPECIFICALLY, then I suppose I'll degrade myself to a touch of shilling. My pen name is J N Morgan, it is my pseudonym when I write. Best-selling books are by far my 'Living amongst the Dead' series, 3 of them thus far and soon to be 4. Also planning to write a sequel to Firearm Valhalla because I love me some 'gun porn' as I put it. Also it doesn't hurt that besides my LatD series, Firearm Valhalla is my most popular other book. The remaining 2 of my 6 is a drama and an erotica.I think the drama is better, but it seems to sell even worse than the erotica, but oh well. The drama is free on lulu; "Another One Please, to Dull the Pain". Addresses the struggles men face in divorce court, also touches on the issues of child custody, child support, male suicide, as well as some other things. It's a novella, just shy of 29,000 words, and I wrote it within 5 days. Hopefully there's not too many typos. Give it a read if you like, as I mentioned; it's free.

Do let me know how shitty it is if you read it. You can contact me on Goodreads if you like. I need to give it an edit, I've already been told there's some grammatical errors... but as for character development, storytelling, and all that kinda thing, I really think I did not bad even though I wrote it during a rather stressful time in my life. Been told by a fellow who has been through some rough divorces that I did quite well in spite of still only being in my 20s. Gave him flashbacks of it.

Yup, it is indeed at least somewhat inspired by MGTOW. I've looked into the reasoning and logic, looked into the 'why', and I understand. Men are given a raw deal in marriage, and I decided to use it as inspiration in my writings. If you are a male, and you ever get married... I wish you well. You have a 50/50 chance of finding your marriage difficult but rewarding... or find it to be utterly gutwrenching and potentially the source of your suicide, as it has been of many men.

To each their own. Perhaps the red pill is a curse... MORE RUM! I entirely intend to go at least 10 more years before considering having a child. 10 more years of living, of learning, and if I am lucky, within those 10 years, a prominence of the men's rights movement so that if I ever find myself in the unfortunate circumstance of a divorce then at least I have a 50/50 chance of getting custody of the child. Perhaps even the child support, but ideally, I think the Government should get out of the child support business. If a woman wishes to have a child wish someone then she should look for a man who will BE THERE for her. If she accidentally gets pregnant, well, there were plenty of preventions available of getting pregnant and there is also the option of abortion. I think she would feel bad for abortion and I believe she SHOULD, she is preventing a life from living, but in the end, there are multiple options. Women have many choices, even if feminists like to think that women are oppressed to the point that it's the dark ages and with rape culture men routinely bump fists in celebration of recent rape victims... madness...

Matriculation exam for English and chemistry coming up this fall. The English exam should be an easy Laudatur, but I'm worried I can't bring myself to study properly for the chemistry exam. Or the other more important exams come spring. Cannot ingrain the idea of "if you study, you get good results; if you get good results, you will be happy" in my head even when the good results aren't just for gratification this time around, they will be determining my future possibilities. Especially since I've been able to get very good grades while slacking off. I'm not sure whether I should try to be more ambitious or just think about the actual consequences of acing the exams and use that to drive me. I have some ambition for the Finnish exam since my writing in Finnish has gotten much better over time and I would very much like to improve it even further. My English writing feels much harder to improve since my essay deductions usually come down to weird comma placement errors and legibility of handwriting.

Have I done anything or why is bad luck following my every step? While my old friends never changed their bad habits, I've tried to improve myself over the last 3 years. But everytime I do something, unexpected things cross my plans.
And seeing my old friends having more success in life than me really depresses me.

I have fallen so many times, that even though I always managed to try again I have no energy left.

And it isnt constrained to one aspect. School, hobbies, social life, there is no source left where I could seek strength for my exhausted soul.

I would say that I have never been a bad person, I always tried to be a good person. I have talents, which I tried not to waste but through bad luck or fate whatever you want to call it, I never succeeded, the whole struggle just drained what was left.

And now I'm sitting here. Alone, bitter, no goal, and no energy left to do anything anymore.
I have seen that whether you win or loose is written in stone.
I have offered my hand so many times, but it seems life just doesnt want to take my hand.
I really wanted to love life, see the beautiful side of everything and die with no regrets.
But I guess I am not the chosen one.

I see North Korea and their missile testing as this... we're in a pub. Everyone is sitting around the bar, having drinks, talking about one another's problems and how to fix it. North Korea is off in the corner while everyone else is trying to be sensible. They're already completely wasted, shouting obscenities, directly threatening the biggest fucker in the room (United States) as well as one of the richest Asians in the room (South Korea), all the while they've found a disassembled firearm along with a loaded mag and they're trying to reassemble it. Well a black man just left who has done absolutely nothing about it (Obama) and a charismatic blond dude (Trump) has waltzed in to find that he's now in the middle of this situation, this problem.

Trump has gone to that corner (brought the US Navy to the Sea of Japan) and is telling the angry Nork to fuck off and stop trying to assemble that firearm. He (Kim Jong Un) won't. Trump is telling him that he'll have to get physical if he doesn't stop. Some nearby Liberals are saying that Trump is trying to start WWIII by trying to defend himself since Kim Jong Un has directly threatened him (America). Finally China, who is BASICALLY North Korea's best friend in the room but really it's not saying much since everyone hates him, has had enough and is now standing next to Trump. Telling Kimmy to calm down, leave the firearm alone, stop threatening Trump and some of the others. Even Russia (Putin) has got up and started flexing his big, strong, bare, masculine, well-oiled chest.

That's how I see it... I may need therapy...

I'm thinking of paying Cliff Sargent like 100 dollars to read my whole tumblr blog, everything I ever wrote. I'd just like to know what someone things of the stuff I write, and I think it would be especially cool if that person was Cliff Sargent. It's such incredibly personal writing, I doubt it wouldn't be awkward as hell for him to comment on it, or read it. I guess that's part of what makes it sound like such an interesting idea.

A few years ago my rage was strong enough that I thought I could kill my uncle but after years of inaction and having to deal with the legal system it slipped from me. Help me find my anger again /lit/. Or help me forget it. Either is fine.

So delicious. So nutritious. Its texture that of the finest Persian tapestry. Its fragrance akin to an eccentric cheese of le cordon bleu. My tounge wrapping gently around its entirety causing my neurons to depolarize by opening ion gated potassium channels in which calcium flows down its concentration gradient to stimulate the corpuscles on my tounge as I separate the skin from the shaft. Ever so gently I tossle his black-cock foreskin between my lips in a fashion similar to tasting a fine wine. This fine wine however is all mine

Ok so I put in my two weeks and then what? I'm dead in the water just like that. Game over. You will never fucking let this go and I have no means to fight it. There's no way I'll give up my only chance. Its not unreasonable to think this, am I wrong? You have to hold fast while you can. There is absolutely no better alternative, I have not been offered one, I will not get one. I'll keep working just to waste my time.

If you dont know what you want to write then you're not ready. I think schpenhauer says there are men who write for a living, popular writers, journalists, etc, they write by putting their pen down and letting the words come to them. Then there are true writers who consider what they need to convey before ever picking up the pen.

The point is, dont fall into the habit of writing spontaneously, you'll just keep producing junk. Dont write until you know you have something to say

Protip, if you're as working class as you say, then private universities woulda comped your ass way better than state. The fact that you didnt get into a private school just reinforces your pleb status.
