I sincerely believe prolonged exposure to 4chan turns people into homosexuals, transsexuals, cuckhold perverts, pedophiles, 'furry' imbeciles, and various other forms of dysgenic sexual failures. Something about this transformation in turn I think compels them to undertake further proselytization of others, they begin contributing to the preponderance of their fetish or fetishes in some degenerate contest, in effect they become spammers or advertisers looking to break down and infect as many other users as possible through normalizing exposure of the abnormal. They become some demented middle ground between the likes of a door to door Evangelist and a bot or shill. More and more I worry about my being here. Not just my sexual but my political and philosophical views have been slowly deformed over my long stay. 10 years ago I would be repulsed by images and ideas I now hold a total tolerance to, yet somehow this never occurred to me as strongly as it does now. I begin to gather my very sense of sense, not just of right and wrong, has been twisted. Why do I have so many pictures of lolis on my computer.

That makes sense but it doesn't explain everything, since it happens outside environments where people know me too.
I think it's probably that girls are good at reading guys' intentions, and when they're receiving male attention it's usually because the guy wants to fuck or ask them out and they're not being subtle. When you have no direct romantic intent and show them attention anyway, girls warm up quickly to you I guess.
The weird part is you don't need to be self-confident. A lack of confidence can make you really endearing to girls. It kinda triggers a motherly instinct in a distant way

I made this post, and I have made a profound realization.

I realized why I enjoy threads like this, the feels threads on /fit/ and anything similar. I could just write out my thoughts in a journal, but I want feedback, and most of the time the things I discuss in here are just kind of odd thoughts, ramblings, feelings, that I don’t feel comfortable telling my friends. I don’t talk to my friends about books or music, so me coming to them and saying out of the blue I want to read a nonfiction book about music would be so strange.

But if I had a significant other, someone who I knew cared for me, and I cared as deeply for them, I’d fucking relish it and be overjoyed if I got a random text from them with a similar oddity and vagueness. Just being allowed to their inner world of thoughts no matter how strange, free from judgement. It sounds so nice, and that kind of feeling if you don’t have a significant other is replicated here due to the anonymous nature of the posting. Someone could insult you sure, but you’re just as likely to meet thoughtful consideration and understanding.

I’m so lonely, and I miss her so much. But I have to keep moving, I’ll find love again. I’ll soon no longer need this place, because I’ll have some I can tell directly I want to read a nonfiction book about music, we can go on an on about that and other random topics.

No, it’s not a real mental illness. Depression is actually normal. In fact, they used to say that people who were struck with grief or sadness chronically melancholy and it wasn’t something that was totally normal but it was just something that happens in life. Life is hard. It’s necessarily harder than it is easy. It’s necessarily sadder than it is happy. To live is to lack, to lack is to suffer, and thus, to live is to suffer. Whoever told people that the goal of their life was to be happy, lied to them plain and simple. But here’s the thing. Depression, real depression, doesn’t come from the fact that life is suffering. It comes from feeling like the suffering is not worth it or improbable in anyway. You’re not supposed to acknowledge that. You’re expected to accept the idea that actually, you’re nothing more than a bunch of cells and chemicals moving chaotically through space among other “truths of the modern world” so clearly that can’t be anything that makes the suffering worth it and thus, the suffering is bad and you have to seek happiness. You see the catch-22. This is one of the lies that the modern world is built on.

Depression is a real mental illness and it is pretty rare. What most people consider depressed now is not like the rare disease. The most recent modern form of "depression" is a socially produced disease, in part produced by drugs companies to sell stuff, but mostly produced by people like you googling if they're depressed and other memes. The drugs don't actually work. However, the placebo effect does work well enough on socially produced diseases that whatever treatment you believe in will probably work, whether that is drugs or some weird Instagram diet.
One of the things you can do which improves either depression is cardio (and especially if you have anxious symptoms). Making sure you get enough nutrients from food choices can also help. Prescription medicine really only helps in the same way smoking helps depressives: it shortens your lifespan and gives you a way to kill time in the interim.

I'm no scholar on the subject but the main issue is what's called conditionality. You have to ask yourself what sense there is loaning out capital to backwards poor countries that are deep in the shit. The answer is thee collateral they put up? Can't pay? Fail despite all this funding? Then hand over your natural resources.

The IMF is basically a shell company for the developed world to control the rest of the world. The USA also has more or less controlling authority over it because it has decisive voting power based on its strange vote allotment system that awards how many votes a country can put towards a policy based on some arcane international currency calculation.

So the IMF acts as a loan shark pushing deals onto poor countries who cannot refuse. Because money alone does not solve all problems. When things still go wrong for them, all the bad things that happen to individuals who can't pay their debts happen to nations.

This was the case with Greece about 5 years ago. They defaulted on their IMF loan, so they got downgraded, so they couldn't bail out their economy, and nobody would do business with them. So it was a race to the bottom downward spiral.

Essentially the IMF has a monopoly on the international credit market for sovereign debtors, but it is not a neutral agency. It is an ideological and political instrument by which wealthy nations poke and prod power nations into doing their will.

You don't hear the IMF's side of the story because it's all a screen about "spreading prosperity and promoting financial stability" in the world, that is to say, imposing the neoliberal order on every last inch of the earth's soil. If you heard the true story it would be what I just said. They're loan sharks and pushers.

The modern left consists of two parts. They are either narcissistically self-absorbed in identity politics and more or less blind to all foreign affairs, or they are anti-Americanists who see China as a preferable alternative as the world hegemon.

The Belt and Road Initiative can be interpreted in at least two ways. They are either trying to beat the IMF at their own game and offer an alternative lending source, but essentially engaging in the same predatory practices. They are attempting to erode the IMF's influence. The logic of markets is that to do so, they must offer more attractive interest rates or other incentives. Ironically this is capitalism at work.

Or they are actively seeking the good will of those they lend to, because they need to build alliances and support as a hedge against the west. It's an arrangement of mutual benefit. Essentially they are constructing the infrastructure they will use to acquire resources from natural resource rich "developing" countries, so it is more in their interest that their client states succeed. They want exclusive or preferential trade agreements with those countries they sponsor. Unlike the IMF, they are not in it for money but for building up a pro-China power bloc and an economic order that revolves around China rather than the US.

People are close-minded and think all slavery is equal. Good slavery includes: slavery as punishment for breaking laws, like what the US currently does; slavery of unjust side taken from a just war; or selling yourself or children to slavery, like voluntary slavery.

Here's a strange idea: every time you experience deja vu or synchronicity your brain state has become entangled and overlapped with a "confluence" of most probable states in the multiverse. You can either continue to "follow through" with the event, repeating the predictable, or you can consciously choose to deviate from it and branch out on a new path. Deja vu is a branching point in the nexus of fate.

It's real but it's overdiagnosed, the real thing is impossible to understand unless you've experienced it. Imagine a schizophrenic person saying "I have hallucinations" and a guy responds with "Yeah I do too, I blow things out of proportion in my head all the time and lose touch with reality". The second guy isn't stupid, but he fails to grasp schizophrenia because he's trying to understand it via his own experiences. Likewise, no one who's never had depression can understand it unless they can accept a reality that exists beyond their own experiences.

Think of it this way: one symptom of depression is suicidal thoughts. What is that though, really? Most people will consider suicide at least once in their lifetime. The difference is that with depression, this happens for no reason. There's no clear impetus for suicide - you just want to do it. Most symptoms of depression follow this pattern. If a friend dies for instance, it's normal to go through grief, feel guilt, and lose interest in your hobbies. But these effects are supposed to go away after a while. If they stay, there's a good chance it's depression.

What trips most people up is the fact that many (but not all) symptoms of depression can be eased with therapy. You can talk to someone about your anxiety, guilt, suicidal thoughts, etc. and it actually helps things a lot. So then you ask, what separates a depressed person with anxiety/guilt/suicidal thoughts from a non-depressed person with those issues? That's where the line begins to blur. Some people just have anxiety or guilt issues totally separate from depression, for instance. What helps here is looking at other symptoms, such as sleep issues, brain fog, derealization, digestive problems, poor memory, anhedonia, and so on. When you've got several of these, it's depression. So you start to see why someone with all these issues gets nothing from being told to lighten up, guilt etc. are just outward signs of a deeper, complicated issue.

I'm reading Fear and Trembling right now i just finished the Preliminary Expectoration. I'm deeply impressed with its insight and it has caused me to reflect on my experience as a Christian.

After having some very unpleasant experiences and having seen the world for the shit that it was I turned to God desperately. When I began to dive into the concepts in Christianity, one of the first things I learned from the ministry was the dichotomy of the world from the Church. Prior to my baptism I was taught how the flood was a type of baptism and how the whole world had to be flooded and lost so that something new and greater could be come unto. One of the hymns the church sings makes mention of leaving the world under the water as a reference to this. I desperately wanted to leave the world.
There was a point in scripture that caused me a lot of anguish. Towards the end of the Gospel of John, Jesus says that He has called us out of the World, but then also says here we must remain for certain period. I was dismayed because I realized that evem though I have been offered salvation I was still here trapped for a period more. I thought myself beyond the world. That because I had seen how wretched it is that I could easily leave it behind. I thought myself faithful because I could easily proclaim my confidence in the truth of scripture and promise of salvation. But then I was tried. I had bargained with myself about my vices, supposing that I could enjoy certain acts of flesh a while longer before fully committing to Christ. And when the lockdown began and the church closed, my separation from the constant reassurance led me astray as I sunk back into the world.

Kirkegaard says that infinite resignation is a prerequisite for faith. I see now that I am not faithful. I had only thought myself resigned from the world but it wasn't an authentic act. Abraham rode three days to Moriah to sacrifice his World to God. I turned back before my first day was over. I still do believe that Jesus rose from the dead, but I do not have faith. I wonder if this is the real meaning of "faith without works is worthless"
It isnt the work of charity per se, but rather the motion of resignation. Kirkegaard calls the man who says resignation is impossible a coward. I suppose a coward I am. I fear there is currently a Great Flood and that i'm being swept up in it. May God offer me the strength to finish the race.

I'm doing again. I'm cucking another man. This time I feel guilty. This time I believe I'm in the wrong. In the past, the men I've cucked were assholes. I know nothing about this guy; from what I've been told, there isn't anything bad about him that helps me justify my actions. I kissed her today, held my erection tight against her body, grabbed her ass. We've yet to fuck. I really want to; but something is gnawing at me. Something is eating me alive. Guilt is a "low vibration" emotion. It tears the soul down to the basest level. I've felt a malaise unlike any other. I should read a Christian writer to help me behave. I should read the Bible. I will read random decadent poets until this is all over. Then I will redeem myself. But can I deal with the stain of this black sin? Can I handle my scarlet branding? The girl seems confused too, but she squeezed me tighter when she felt my hard cock pressing against her. Life is confusing; emotions are consuming me.

there is a certain affinity, a deep seated kinship in the core of my spirit that i feel when i'm talking to friends, family, even random strangers that i strike up a conversation with online or in the street. that feeling that you're on the same page and you ultimately want to arrive to a somewhat close end point. but i do not feel with her, my girlfriend. i do not doubt the existence nor the strength of the love between us, but i doubt it's nature. she loves me wholly, but i cannot love everything about her. her worldview makes me miserable and drives me to tears. our clashes are not minimal, but we ignore them and walk on eggshells because we hate to hurt each other.
i feel very close to her, yet we do not see eye to eye on so many things. we do not want the same things out of this life. she's fine with me, but i am not fine with her. i see her going down a very dark path. she ignores her pain and keeps sedating it with distractions, and her stubborn and prideful self stops her from listening. almost every single value that i hold dearly has been challenged by this woman. i wish she'd stop being so mocking. i wish she'd stop being so bogged down on materialist, animalistic thought. i wish she didn't have such a hard life. the curse of the spiritually bankrupt.
people look at her in contempt or ignore her at her workplace. i cannot leave her because she would be in more agonizing pain. i am so lost. what can i do when i feel more guilt, more pity, more malaise than i feel love ? how can i stop feeling ill when i remember the things she does ? i knew it was going to be very difficult, and i shouldn't have accepted. i may be miserable but so what ? me making her miserable however, that's what's the most painful.
would you sacrifice your values for the sake of someone's well being ?

I appreciate anyone who takes the time to read the following, I'll try to keep it informative yet concise. NYPB, I know, I just have no one, my cousin has recently given up on my incessant complaining and won't listen to me anymore. I abused his good will to listen and now he is setting his boundary. It's my fault, but I also can't help myself sometimes. I just fall into it.

The planets of hell have aligned. My life over the past year has left me hollow.

Background: I'm undiagnosed, but clearly not mentally stable, I believe I have some sort of narcissism or borderline. I have volatile emotional episodes where I just lose all motivations and want to kill myself, and I always described the feeling as a huge void or emptiness inside of me. During episode, everything everyone does around me triggers me and is a trigger in the sense that they are slights to me. I want people to like me but generally think I am better than everyone around me. Of course, I am deeply insecure and think I am worthless. I hate myself for being this way. I want nothing more than to be valued and respected by others.

On to my life recently. I work at my uncle's company as an accountant. He constantly leverages debt onto a risky investment opportunity that can pay out big, but may also leave us bankrupt. This results in us having to constantly borrow and pay back from contracts we have with clients. I quit grad school to work here and feel the floor falling beneath my future weekly if not daily.

My brother just called me yesterday, he has something in his brain, they think it's a brain tumor, likely benign. I feel guilty because I see the same narcissism in him sometimes and shut him out because I can't stand seeing myself in others. His awareness of his narcissism seems to be less than my awareness of mine. Now I feel guilty because I love him deeply, but I mistreated him because of my own issues. It's all good between us though.

This penultimate one is stressing me out since I only feel life fulfillment from the My girlfriend got a text from an old flame and she did not respond to him in a way that I feel was disinterested. The conversation ended with her blocking him (so she says, and which I believe), but I can't help but feel like she was interested in him. Their previous encounters are remembered favorably by her.

Lastly, I lost 150k on CCIV after making 150k on GME. Trying again for GME. But everyone around me saw me lose 150k, I feel totally humiliated.

In total: My mental health is undiagnosed bad (I kind of feel afraid of therapists), my company might go bankrupt, Brother might have cancer, lost a lot of trust in my relationship, and lost more money than I'd ever know to do with. All in all I am doing better than I thought.

Oh ya, I still live with my parents.

The eternal dilemma of relationships; is it worth it to compromise on who you are to obtain an end to loneliness and a partner to aid and share life with? In my experience if it is a partner that does not see your ideals and views eye to eye, and especially one that is stubborn and refuses to consider different viewpoints or alternatives, than you are not in a partnership at all and the relationship is pointless. Your other part refuses to listen to you, this gap in your relationship is not lethal yet; but you HAVE to mend it sooner or later or you will simply sacrifice your happiness for the vague comfort of being a martyr for someone else's wellbeing. If she is truly a partner who loves you, she should not want you to be miserable and should take your problems seriously. Resolve your problems and trust her to understand or at least accept your concerns, or leave her. Those are your only two options. If she accepts the former; she is taking your love seriously. If she does not, she is taking your concerns and problems lightly and the love is one sided, no matter her reasons, and vice versa. You will regret not settling this in the future if you let this stew for years and sit in your melancholy.

Personally in your situation I would consider moving out with your girlfriend if your parents are a conflict. I'm projecting really hard but I'm relatively poor and moving out of my small business owning parents house after being a NEET for years massively helped my confidence and insecurities.

Regarding your stock trades, I understand the confidence and social pressure stings more than the monetary loss in your position but in this case with your uncle's company and family situation it's probably best to have an exit plan when/if your uncle's business goes under, start leveraging your experience now and seek out different and possibly better options. This will also remove the social pressure for the most part because you will be dealing with entirely new coworkers and not working alongside family and have the added bonus of a much more secure job than your uncle's high risk lending schemes. Don't let your relative's opinions control your actions or mental state, and the first way to do that might be to start acting independently.

tl;dr avoid family, shill your experience at your uncle's business and begin an exit plan if possible. This is my armchair backseat peanut gallery life advice entirely from projecting, once you have your life totally independent your insecurity about your GF will probably subside quite a bit as well since the ball will be in your court in terms of income and job security, or even other romantic options if it came to that.

Dude I cannot thank you enough for listening to me. I feel so alone, and I have absolutely no one to talk to since my cousin got fed up with me. Thank you! So fucking much.

I was thinking that about my uncle's business, I am not a professional accountant by any means, not a CPA either. So it is a long shot on finding another job. I took this position because I was promised prospects, but you are right I can take control of this situation. My plan was to become a music producer and try to find money from streaming on spotify or whatever. But typing that out seems like a long shot. FYI my hobby is music.

What depresses me about my GF is that she pressures me to marry so we may live together (she is muslim), now I feel uncomfortable like the marriage is for the wrong reasons. I don't want to have to fight for my wife's love. I feel betrayed because this other dude garnered her interest so effortlessly. I feel like I am not enough if that is the case. Sexually, I do not last long and sometimes have issues staying hard so I am sure her opinion of our sex is less than positive. This is leading me down the thought that sex and orgasms are the only way to a woman's affection. I make her orgasm, but I just know that her other experiences are better. I am having trouble trusting any woman with my heart if this relationship does not work out. I feel weak, scared, alone, inadequate, replaceable, and small (although I am well endowed, at least that's kind of nice to have).

I agree that once I am a self-reliant and independent person, I would be much happier, but I am having trouble becoming that for myself.

Yeah, please understand that your situation is actually pretty good, (financially it's better than mine, being honest) but it's really easy for an underconfident mind to find reasons to fear and panic, I have had a lot of anxiety problems in the past that were hard to overcome. Don't think that you're crazy when you might have just not confronted your issues or been in an environment that you were secure enough to tackle them. Validation can be really important to one's own psyche and if you are just being compared by family members over and over again that have known you for 20+ years it can be exhausting and kill your self esteem. Look or try for something WHILE you have a job if possible and that way there's no pressure for now until you're 100% ready to bail. Don't just quit suddenly or you might get fucked by surprise

For relationships...I'm not an expert on that. I got really lucky and my first one managed to click with someone on almost a perfectly even level where we both want the same things and even think in the same way, but if I didn't have that...I don't think I could settle for less. Marriage is terrifying to me in that context, sorry but in terms of advice I'd do more harm than good there lol. I do 100% believe you should never bend to pressure to marry when you are in such a volatile environment with so many insecurities bouncing around, for a decision like that you need to be really really clear headed, so please be careful.

Financially my situation is good. Maybe my mind is underconfident. Maybe I cannot tackle my issues because I am constantly trying to get ahead, which is manifesting narcissism? I don't know what's going on, I just know that I have no friends, and the closest person to me just got tired of me and is maintaining that boundary even after my brother gave the news. However they have been slightly there.

That is what I tell her. It sucks because we cannot see each other without her literally lying to her mother. We can't ever sleep over. We can't really do anything couples do. It's even long distance right now.

My financial situation is decent, you are right. but everything else is pretty demoralizing. I am trying to stay hard though. I just need a hug lol. A nice long cuddle with a girl (my gf or otherwise at this point).

Yes. You might need to do some introspection. The fact that you cannot play it off might mean some repressed homosexuality. Not certainly, but that is the case at times.

You really shouldn't care in this day and age. Just tell everyone you're gay and keep dating girls even. Idk, could be fun to play with. Would also show security in your sexuality. I think everyone sense insecurity.

I have a paper due tomorrow. My midterm is two papers. I finished the first paper today and it sucks. Tomorrow's paper is gonna be bad too. Academic papers feel so disingenuous. It's like a litmus test of knowing the right thing to write, regardless of how much you believe it. Every paper I read from my department (history) reads like a regurgitation. I've begun to identify "regurgitated" words and phrases. It's hip to talk about liberalism in a 19th century setting. Every professor wants me to write about the implications of modernism, but in a non-reductionist way. It's like describing a hydra by looking at one of its heads. I know that specificity is good, but it's hard to tie big themes to specific events. Any ideas on good academic writing?

I should have been more clear. Those were supposed to be two disjointed thoughts. A regurgitated word is one which is symbolic to the reader. It tells the educated reader that the writer knows the phrases which are most accurate for describing a situation or movement.
I meant to say that all I read anymore are papers on 19th century history. It's hip to write about. People like to read and write about it because there's so much conflict between people and the state. Not that this period isn't interesting. Quite the opposite really. I'm just getting filtered by too many of the primary source writers to enjoy it.

Some men are made to rule, while the others are made to consent, to obey. Some men are made to know success, while the others have to endure failure after failure. Some men are made to shine, to witness the true manifestation of hapiness, while the others are made to close their eyes, and support the unbearable sorrows. For so long I have lied to myself, thinking that some improvement can be made, that Fate will sometime give me a smile. For so long I thought that I alone could beat the way things are, I thought that the seeking the Truth would be the best balm for my heart. But now that I see that Truth, now that I see how cruel and unfair it is, now that I see that all my struggles were unnecessary because things have to be the way they are, I became hopeless. But at least I accept my condition as a vermin now, I accept my rotten soul as it is. Nothing can be changed. In order for some to shine, others have to perish. I have to perish in this world for which I, all along, was nothing but a failure.

They won't punish him. A young black man was arrested and charged with my father's murder, I was there, a lot of them showed up to invade my house; they had followed me from a local bodega with their headlights off. Young black men. I thought there were 5 or so but the video shows more, they had 3 vehicles. They only popped up right after I opened the door, pap pap pap, shoes running up behind me and for a precious naïve moment I thought they were going to ask for money despite the fact it was like 1:00 AM. Then each began to point his own handgun, they forced me inside and told me to "get down like you prayin'". To kneel, they meant I should kneel and I knew this would memetically prompt them to execute me, so instead I laid down on the ground on my stomach. One took a knee to keep a gun to my head, I saw nothing but the ground after that. I was questioned as to the location of money, they only wanted money, I couldn't bring myself to say something like "in banks, you idiot". They were so young they thought there'd be some kind of like...dollar sign bag, it was as ignorant as I had been on my front steps about their intent. We couldn't understand each other. I hear an argument from another room, my dad's come into my room, assuming I was simply being loud talking into some voice channel on some game, as I usually did. I heard my father say "What are you gonna do about it?" and one of them say "I'll show you what I'm gonna do about it", and he fired, he kept going and presumably clipped out. I dunno really, I heard some shots and screamed "no, don't!" completely involuntarily, my yell scared the young man with the gun to my head and I felt it press into my head, he gasped. Presumably it kept going, they found 9 shell casings at first, one later turned out to have rolled into a hallway closet under the gap in the doorway. They all instantly started to leave, no prompt, the shooter was the last one out and I have this feeling like he went from being their leader to being lucky to get into the getaway car. He chimped, my dad provoked him and he chimped. He knew, I knew it, everyone knew it was over right then. My dad was...breathing, but shallowly, his head moved back and forth in a struggle to regain consciousness that he was destined to lose. You know, I thought he'd live? I didn't see the shot through his side that transected his diaphragm. Hell, there's been no trial yet, I'm not even supposed to talk like that. He just couldn't breathe I guess. Ambulance came and this idiot, I'll remember his face forever, comes out and bellows "should I stay with the body???". I was with a police officer on the lawn of my house, I looked at him and said "OH, THE BODY?????" and rushed him, meaning to hit him. Police officers grabbed my legs, the EMT looked like he was going to have a heart attack. Sometimes I wonder if I'm that EMT's story of the dumbest thing he's done, like some shit he'd post on Reddit.

Anyway they won't even try him, it's been 5 years.

In general, social relationships are pursued when thetransaction of benefits is rewarding to both parties. When pursuing relationships, people maximize relationshipbenefits while minimizing relationship costs (Rusbult, 1980;Sprecher, 1998). Social exchange theory has been
used to predict commitment in intimate relationships. Commitment increases with increases in relationship satis-faction, which is based in part on perceived benefits of that relationship (Rusbult, 1983)

Speaking from my personal point of view, when I play videogames, I have fun sometimes, meanwhile when I'm on 4chan, at best I'm apathetic, and at worst I end up angry and/or sad.

Unfortunately, I can't help but spend all of my waking hours here.

I masturbate once every two weeks. My horniness leads me to increasingly risky behavior. I don't recommend this. I dry humped a coworker yesterday at work.

Religions on paper, sure. At the same time, look what it’s done to religion. You’ll find stark differences between Orthodoxy in Greece or Catholicism in Italy than either respectively in America, for example and they remain a minority.

>>17757047
Then why is Orthodoxy so strong in Russia? I think overt communism is blatantly more hostile and upfront about its hostility to religion but liberalism is far more subtle and corrosive in its hostility to religion, and I think that’s what makes it worse.

Watame is very cute. Everything sucks I want to go to the moon. The thing I look forward to the most is going back to sleep because being unconscious and dreaming is much preferable to being awake. Although you never realize you’re dreaming so you can’t really enjoy it. And if the dream is really good you regret waking up

You guys ever feel lonely? Do you feel anxious because of it? I usually don’t but sometimes I am really acutely aware of my loneliness and it’s hard to cope with. I’m 27. I’ll be 28 soon. I haven’t really met anyone in a couple years to be honest. I’m not sure I will.

I did a little experiment where I asked people very direct and personal questions, and it turns out most people are actually very honest and willing to answer them. For example, I asked a father whether he thought his daughter was hot, and he said yes. You'd think most people would get angry or not answer at questions like these; though, some people did not respond well to my questions.

I read and play vidya. I study CS but thanks to covid I don't have to attend to lectures and just watch some a 2x speed. I have to do some projects and only really study the material about 10-15 days per semester. It was the same before covid but had to commute.
