part 3: teen/junior high
>all around the same time period, i finish 7th grade in homeschooling, dad finds out the place he works out will soon be closing down in our town, but that he has a job offer in two other towns in the state
>one of the towns is 5 miles away from my parents' home town
>for months they start talking about moving back (all of this without telling me of course, this town we lived in at the time was the town i was born and raised in so you can imagine my surprise when they suddenly tell me we're just leaving)
>he takes the job and just like that we're leaving
>it's not so bad since all the family on my mom's side lives in the area and it's nice to be surrounded by people who love you
>by this point we're very obviously conscious of the fact that homeschooling was a massive fucking mistake and begin talking about high school
>mom thinks i can make it because i'm smart (i tend to disagree) even though we skipped 8th grade
>i am absolutely terrified of going because i've been reduced to a mushmouthed sensitive sperg without any concept of how humans work
>but we come to the conclusion its for the best and that i need to
>after many months of us getting trying to find a home, moving in, all that boring shit, i take an entry test at the local high school
>i completely flunk it
>instead i'm going to junior high 8th grade
>yeah i fucking told you so mom
>spend a whole year mentally prepping myself for having to deal with people again after YEARS of basically not dealing with anybody but family
>made the mistake of signing up for the football team despite being a pudgy asthmatic tard wtih no expectation of what was to come
>jesus christ what was i thinking
>school year begins
>first day i am on the verge of shitting and pissing myself for the entire day due to being literally incapable of understanding social relationships or how any of it works and basically having to teach myself through trial and error
>it goes..... okay? i guess?
>i make some friends
>the classes are okay
>football practice time
>oh my god this is fucking horrible
>somehow forgot im a fat asthmatic retard and that something like this would absolutely destroy me
>quit football after about 10 more
horrifically embarrassing attempts of that
>overall 8th grade just culminated in me, in trial and error, figuring out how to not be a *total* spazzoid. it wasnt a complete victory but i did at least get better by the time it was over and make some friends. there were ups and downs like there is to anything i guess

>/lit/ is so bad, you’re imitating your professor’s and the news media, i just realized the way we bring up topics is programmatic and that’s why the responses are inane and full of people who wouldn’t otherwise feel comfortable posting. you people know nothing, you’ve been socialized by democratic egregore implantation to assume because you have a neo-cortex and have read something and are infatuated with pursuits you think are cultured, that you’re sapient and that your questions or ideas matter. Its neither that the humanities are sterile and thus you all couldn’t contribute nor that there is nothing left to contribute, this cohort, all of (You) are just unworthy. This is obscured by the traffic oriented internet forums, private forums even and social media where maximizing aesthetically pleasing, pallatable user interaction is key. 4chan has natural levels of paricipation, these have never, not even when you thought you were a secret club, reflected who has a right to talk or speak. in fact pathways for discourse almost exlusively facilitate the thought of the inept and the debased. You’re more likely to seek an education and express it in esoteric thought circles if you know nothing and are very convinced the vacuum you feel is your immense mind. Truly fucking remarkable, you’re all retarded. I could go through every single user and not one would yield anything, but the pretense would remain, and the public probably couldn’t tell the difference. Confusing the packaging with the product, stuck in looping presuppositions, modal consciousness, object-subject dichotomies, occulted binary logic, dialects that lead nowhere, this is what most humans do with their minds. Nothing and no one can help you, you’ll continue eating each other’s faces and shitting onto your screens until its not cost effective and then you’ll do the same in garages, at bars, at cocktail parties, at night clibs, in living rooms, at work, in study halls and waiting rooms, at restaurants and in parks. Chattering cicadas
