Conscription is slavery.
Conscription is murder.
Conscription is a serious offence.
Real wars are fought by volunteers.

Many real wars have been fought by regions liberating themselves from true enemies that tried to conscript their people.

The Station Fire when Great White was playing is one of the most disturbing videos I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen some bad ones. The way the fire spread so fast, the screams from those stuck inside the building, and the sick feeling when you see the crush of people in the doorway stuck, soon to be burned alive. Fire is some scary shit, man

Seeing women in their 30's is weird. It's not like male aging where there's a chance you hit a 2nd peak later on as a cool old man. Women look amazing for like 10 years then it gently withers away. Guys can cope because "Oh I'll look like a grizzled, wise old man" but with women any sign of aging is objectively a downgrade, you see a wrinkle and it's just like man aging sucks

>>22840859
>Man is weak
>Man is soft
>Man is craven

Real men are forged by non-negotiation.

Many more wars have been fought by men taken from their homes in times of need and made to defend them or attack an enemy. Left to their own devices, most men would literally devolve in to women.

>>22841018

Some chicks can still look sexy into their 30s and even 40s, if I were a broad I'd minmax as a dual class so that when I'm in my youth years I can be a hot bitch but then when I hit 26 I start dual classing into "weirdly hot MILF with that thing where they look kind of chunky but it's hot"

You know what I mean about that last bit? Almost like their fat is hanging off them and it makes you want to fuck them like a sex animal. Is there an English word for this? I think a lot of women who have given birth to children have it, it makes them thicker everywhere.

I am an Obsidian simp and not even I'd recommend that turd of a game Alpha Protocol, I played that out of loyalty to them and it was utter shit. You can see how they just realized 10% of the way in they hadn't been given the resources or the time to actually make the game they wanted, so they made some kind of potboiler instead.

>>22841134
not even reading books?
watching movies?

I stare at the wall only joined by the steady mechanical hum of the dehumidifier, whirring blind and oblivious to the world around it.
I've nobody to talk to. Nobody to share grievances, or to hear from, or to have idle chat. I'd scroll the internet but even that's lost its novelty after years of psychological damage from endless screens. Nothing to Do. Nothing to Think. Nothing to Say. Nothing to Feel.
I'd rather be the dehumidifier than me. It doesn't know it's purpose. It doesn't know anything. But it still goes on tirelessly and unceasingly until death instead of haphazardly pitching a fit every time it's reminded of its own existence.

>>22841137

Does anyone have a good, brief book about Habits? I want to unfuck myself next year because if I don't, I might just end it all.

>>22841300
Certainly! One highly recommended and brief book on the topic of habits is "Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones" by James Clear. This book is well-known for its practical and straightforward approach to understanding and changing habits. Clear offers a blend of inspiring stories and scientific research to demonstrate how small changes in habits can lead to remarkable results. The book is concise, engaging, and filled with actionable advice, making it a great choice for anyone looking to improve their habits without a long, dense read.

My grandma wanted me to share this joke with you guys.
>A pussycat and a cockerel are walking by a stream when the pussycat slips and falls in the water. The cockerel starts to laugh.
>Why? Because when the pussy is wet, the cock is happy.
I didn't find it funny, it's immature and would only appeal to children or boomers (both mentally equal). I'm just obliging my grandma's stupid request.

>>22841424
You'll commit suicide because your life is mired by hedonistic indulgence which is only satisfying in your youth.

If you're a *man* you should *want* these things, regardless of how society has corroded your social will, but since you are a *tranny* you accept this is the way of things instead of resenting your leaders and cucked society for caging you like an animal. Why even try to argue with me? I know I'm right too.

>>22841449
Lmao, keep coping in your echo chamber, you'll gain the ability to think freely one day.

>>22841445
I live with her. She asked me what I do all day down there, so I told her about 4chan, and that's where I get my social interaction, and she said she can hear laughing and crying, so she knows I do have emotions.

>>22841452
>you'll gain the ability to think freely one day.

Sometimes I think of these spiteful little things to say, as if I were speaking to my dad, to tell him that my personal failures are a result of his bad parenting. But it doesn't matter. Because they're still my failures. My position in life inst alleviated by levying even justified blame. Therefore it doesnt matter. Even if I assign guilt where guilt is do, I'm still just as fucked as if I didnt. It's like theres no recourse. No real catharsis. No meaningful closure. I'm just this half life until I'm dead

>>22841518
Theres a lot I can't do, like talk to girls, make friends, or maintain relationships. But ultimately what bothers me most is that I can't provide for myself. I'm dependent. And I have this constant fear that if I lose those whom I depend on before I can achieve self sustenance that I'm fucked forever.

>>22841427
>Tell me more.
Not even sure where to begin this sort of thing is a lot to unpack. I guess her personality is something I've always taken issue with first and foremost. The obsessive control freak filled with vice and a sullen personality who had little going for her besides her good looks (at least back then), and the occasional lapse of pity or empathy. Not a very intelligent or even rational mother, which I could stand if I ever saw a single man manage to tame her impulses. I'm not even sure it's conductive of me to point out all of her negative traits, but her promiscuity is something I always took serious issue with, with how many boyfriends I've seen her go through throughout my life, only seeming to settle on her most recent one (which I have no doubt has to do with the fact age makes it harder for both parties to act so flippant). That, and a combination of negligence and helicopter parenting also fucked me up socially because it was "too dangerous" to talk to anyone in my neighborhood, yet only me and my brother were ever at home for prolonged periods of time.

Around middle school is also the time I started failing all my classes and I've never recovered from this, probably because I started to realize how pointless all of this crap I was doing really was, and the fact I hated that I was trapped in a disgustingly dysgenic school system. Of course my Mom was totally clueless why I was so distressed and thought it was a matter of receiving "proper" tutoring, but I didn't do a single bit of the work regardless. When that didn't work she punished me by just... making me sit around looking at a wall or TV all day long. I still passed, probably because even the teachers recognized how cruel it is to trap kids in their garbage schools (or they just had to fill a quota because it was a poor charter school).

To quickly summarize because I don't feel like writing a part two, I could have forgiven all of that, if by my teen years a single person informed me that there was an alternative I could take instead of letting my Mother intimidate me into stringing along with her bullshit (like dropping out of the online ""school"" I was "forced" into because I didn't realize I could actually just go to work and get a GED). Now I just feel like I wasted a lot of time and I'm resentful towards my Mother for not even being the slightest bit aware that her actions did actually have consequences over the long term.

>>22841022
Not OP but I disagree.
You do not need to force a man to defend his family, his home or himself. Men will defend that which they believe is worth defending.
A country that is ruled by parasites, whether elected democratically or not, who do not represent the interests of the hard-working, tax-paying people, is not a country that is worth defending.
Now look at most western countries - they hate their own people, they love importing foreigners, they are forcing everyone into poverty via "climate change policies" as if paying a carbon tax for your car will somehow reduce the temperature of the planet... Not to get too political, but I live in the EU and I hear the following sentence more and more from young people - "They talk about our democracy and then do things that nobody would ever vote for"

I'm retarded but I often call others retarded, sometimes I think of something I said or did and was then in turn called retarded and feel retarded, how deep is the depth of my retardation that it take years to realize a retardation, would I be less retarded if I noticed my retardation sooner, I guess that would be knowing myself

I have deleted my past 5 or so (long) posts on this board after finishing them. I don't know why, I guess it is primarily due to quality control so you are all welcome (though ironically I let this trash slide). I think a large factor is that I do not want to feel obliged to check back for replies even though I would definitely willingly do so anyway, I don't want to feel forced to. Fear of commitment and blah blah.

The other day I made an effort post advising an anon and then got distracted with work, thinking that he, like most people, would just brush it off as some idiot online who can't really know his situation. I came back days later to see he really appreciated my advice, said it made sense and asked for more. I'm sorry, I didn't realise you were a real one.

When I do post I usually try to come off as unhinged and overly emotional as possible (although i am not intentionally trying that here), as utterly deluded and detached from reality. I don't know why, I guess it's just because those are the types of posts I like reading and I am emulating my heroes - the unsung effort posters of /lit/ who usually only get a reply or two. I see you kings, keep on that grind, you are loved and appreciated, keep honing your crafts.

I could post what is actually on my mind but it's stock standard struggles and other posters already have that market covered. Ironically I am posting this as a procrastination from a section in my shitty novel where the character is mentioning his struggles, I procrastinate because I am struggling to find the balance between self inserting my own thoughts and distancing myself from them due to the cringe when I read something similar by others.

>>22841528
Those all sound fixable, you are lucky. Go out and tackle them before you get some issues that are actually unsolvable like grief (not speaking from experience). Generic advice but just do at least one thing a day to make your life better and in a month you will be astounded at your progress, even if you think it's all impossible, just do it anyway.

I can't respect states that have ugly shapes.

I just started Christopher Hill's "The World Turned Upside Down" and right off the bat the author talks about how some of the key factions in the English revolution felt that hierarchal orders put men and women in bondage to the antichrist.

I don't find Elliot Smith very interesting or insightful in much of what he said or made but he did have moments that amazed me. When I look at them objectively they all seem so mundane and trivial. Like another anon mentioned, Smith saying that being an alcoholic is just a soft type of suicide. "She appears composed so she is I suppose". How he killed himself in the middle of an argument with his gf. I can only imagine what was said and how she can go om living. Maybe she cheated on him, maybe she mentioned how he is always going on about suicide for attention and he isn't actually serious then he stabbed himself in front of her to prove a point at the expense of a successful existence. Suicide ideation is not cool or healthy, I have experienced loved ones killing themselves and the pain is like nothing else. Perhaps I can convince myself that I am doing something slightly different, like it's not specifically related to death, it's merely about someone really showing that they hold true to their beliefs, it just so happens that this is the best way to prove you are a real person.

No, neither is she. She's middle eastern.

What red flagged me is when I ask her what church her bible study group is she says it's a "non-denominational" church. Which I didn't think too much about. But then she seems to be heavily into Revelations. Then when I looked up which churches are heavily focused on revelations, the SCJ church I mentioned came up. Then she mentioned she started going to bible study in person (she only did it online when I met her) and she mentioned the area she goes, when I googled it, apparently that's where SCJ meet up in our city.

Even the course of who she transitioned from online to IRL seems to coincide with how ex-SCJ members mentioned how it works. Apparently in the online groups there are a few "students" who are fakes who just get to know the new members posing as newbies themselves too. Like screening/monitoring people

After playing both vanilla and modded, I honestly prefer vanilla. Mods always end up being more trouble than they're worth. I just spend way more time downloading a ton and fixing errors than i do actually playing. Base game is plenty playable

>>22841789
>Deus Ex
It's definitely janky but it's still ahead of contemporary games in how the games is open ended (you can finish a single mission in many ways and the developer will anticipate it). JC's banter is surprisingly good and the plot is a relentless train of old conspiracy all baked together which somewhat makes sense.
A game I'll also recommend is Disco Elysium. It's a pretty funny game.

Stonewall Jackson was literally insane, how did that guy get command of an army?

I feel this heavily. Right now the entire apartment is empty of noise except the recurring sound of a.c turning on.
It inspires in me a particular kind oc dread and loneliness that suddenly hits like a wave; all the emotion i try to hold back and ignore. The wasted time alone, the years and years slipping by sunk in videogames and solitary childish distractions, that all steadily become less and less interesting, while I remain unchanged, a virtual child
Start to feel trapped in my room, and by empty repetitive routines and soon it starts to feel more like a coffin

>>22841781
If you met her while in induction and your church suppositions are correct, she herself is probably not being malicious.
If the curiosity is killing you then just ask her (in a way that doesn't sound concerned or serious, try to be as casual possible and just try to make it run with the flow of conversation).
There's other ways to contrive that information out of her.
Like
>Agree to go to church with her on say, sunday.
>Make her send the location
>Make up an excuse to why you can't go.

What happens next?

>>22841807
Yeah I feel she genuinely has a love for God and I feel I met her during the more induction stages.

>>22841793
I honestly just felt like the schizo conspiracy writing was a bit much. I can't really take it seriously.
Kinda feels like the game wants the story to be serious but it just seems kinda goofy.

>>22840850
I had a Canadian professor in college (in the US) who I now realize might have been a British empire colonialist or white nationalist. He was forced into retirement this year by the uni. When I had him, he listened with such great attention and engagement when the kids of western european ancestry spoke. He would even ask their ethnicities and go into great stories of their culture and literature and politics in a very positive way.

But when I or the slavic or Caribbean or west african students spoke, he always ALWAYS brought up some WW2 or colonial or some traumatic af story. He always brought up Nazi Germany when the Polish (?) kid spoke, always brought up Africa/slavery when the Caribbean homie spoke and always mentioned the French and Belgian empire when the kid with Ghanian parents spoke. After which he would immediately change the topic away from those students and continue with some shit about the British. Most kids of non-WASP heritage left the class except me and my Jamaican friend and I'm only realizing now how alienating it was

>>22841862
>He always brought up Nazi Germany when the Polish (?) kid spoke, always brought up Africa/slavery when the Caribbean homie spoke and always mentioned the French and Belgian empire when the kid with Ghanian parents spoke.
What would he specifically say? Like when speaking about slavery was it in a gloating way, or was there any kind of context/reason he'd bring it up?

>>22841830
The game takes itself very seriously, it's just that the building blocks in the game are based on conspiracy theory elements (such as the Illuminati and Area 51). It's not any different from some games that try to mix different theism elements or the Fallout franchise which basically based itself from outdated idea about nuclear holocaust.

>>22841878
So it was a class on Jewish early 20th century writers (I know, don't @ me, I needed the credit). We read some Primo Levi, Kafka, and some other misc shit. The last 10-15 mins or so of class would be a discussion where people discussed the readings and share their own experiences. The prof encouraged the students to talk of personal stories or any other literature or cultural artifacts relating to whatever we read and he would navigate the convo in weird way like what I was mentioned in the earlier post. He just spoke very glowingly and excitedly about the Western European descent kids and spoke very weirdly and kinda like "remember your place" kinda vibe and always pivoted back to either the other students or his obsession with the British

So he also had this big ass framed old world map which showed in orange the extent of the British empire at its biggest. He many times used it as a jumping off point for stories about the British colonialists in WW2. He would very frequently talk with glee about the map and even described it as "amazing" or "so beautiful". Me and my Jamaican bro later joked that he was actually talking about the empire and not the map in those moments

I moved back to my college town a few years back to work at the college and get a PhD. I ended up dropping out of the PhD and now I’m ready to quit the job, but I don’t know where to go from here. I guess I go back to where I was before I came back to my college town? I don’t really have anywhere in particular that I want to go anymore, just places I wish I went when I was younger.

lol what bs. Judging by the anons description, the dude kept bringing it up when it really didn’t matter, seemed to talk of it as if he were a colonialism apologist, weirdly asked his students about their race and family background shit, and created this odd power cultural dynamic in a lit class of all places?

I did a masters in history. I made great friends, learned a lot, but then inevitably had to work part-time for a bit getting a teaching-degree so that I could finally make some money. All in all worth it. My only suggestion for those thinking of doing it, if you're going to do it, do it properly and don't have-ass it, otherwise don't bother.

>>22842223
Well, what would you consider half-assing it?

>she's starting to take longer and longer to reply to my messages

>>22842268
She's slowly weening you off, same thing happened to me, eventually, she just stopped replying entirely. Either that or she's been waiting a couple of years to reply, I'm still yet to find out.

>>22842263
Not doing all of the reading, not doing multiple drafts of essays, not showing up for all the classes/lectures, that sort of thing. If you don't put the effort in it's all a bit of a waste.

>>22842223
I think "don't half-ass it" is just general great advice for everything you do in life.

>>22842278
Yeah fair enough. I’m more worried about the impracticality of a humanities degree.

I've been thinking of writing my own commentary on the Bible, the Quran and and Pythagoras but I'm not sure which one to start with first or how many drugs to take before writing it.

you ever wonder about how a woman can be simply born with large breasts and she has a job? She doesn't even need to post them naked and she has a job.
She doesn't have to even touch men and she has a job.
I see women on bird app with 50k followers and their tits aren't even that big, they just allude to playing pokemon and they have a job. That's insane to me, even unremarkable women if they are not stupid and pretend to be boyfriend material are set for life and they never have to service a man or do anything really, just be a woman.
How can a man look at a woman like this without envy, women who stay in the comforts of their home and post hints of cleavage post their cashapps and earn a wage
How is this not evidence of Gynocracy

>>22840850

It's the easiest time for a woman to be a coquette, that's what I'm saying, not even big breasts or "pretending to like video games" are neccessary unlike the past, it has never been easier to rake in the cash from online men
>>22842507
if a man has to go to trade school, or gain qualifications and work a real job and all a woman has to do is feign sexual availability online within the comfort of her home to earn what takes a man a hard wage, how is that not a gynocracy in action.

I struggle to understand whenever Im neurotic or psychotic in Lacanian terms.

>>22842594
i would assume neurotic since you have self awareness enough to worry about it

>>22842576
>the sex trade has never been easier
oh come on you used be allowed own people and age of consent wasn't a thing

>>22842496
It’s come to my attention that when I talk I mainly express my mouth only on one side. The other side of my mouth stays pursed and barely moves. If that’s just a habitual thing, I should probably see a speech therapist. What makes me worry that I need to see a neurologist is that on the same side of my face that I keep my mouth pursed, I also have a droopy eyelid. My eye doctor seemed to think it was just skin and not neurological but these two things now make me think there might be an underlying neurological issue. Both of these are definitely worse if I sleep, if I drink, if I do anything that would affect my CNS. I’m a bit worried about this to be honest. I’ve been feeling really down about myself and my appearance in general recently so if I do have some sort of issue, I would be really upset about that. I was upset to realize this thing about my mouth already. The eye was bad enough.

>>22842606
Ah, a doubt? That makes sense. Psychotic people like paranoics are always certain.

>>22842458
Honestly man if I was a woman with giant tits I would just stream games in a tanktop all day and rake in the cash. I can't see why you wouldn't.

>>22842624
i mean if you have psychotic episode you would most definitely know it, most likely neurotic worrying

>>22842622
>if I do have some sort of issue, I would be really upset about that
It's better to get it seen to early. If it is neurological, some kinds resolve themselves, and some of the other recoverable ones need help but still can return to function, but almost everything is easier fix the sooner you get treatment.

>>22842635
Yes, worrying has to be.

>>22842635
Most of the people I've seen have psychotic episodes weren't aware when it was happening, a lot of them were amphetamine psychosis cases and autists whose overanalyzing and rationalizing tendencies were cloaking the delusional thinking. I've had a few slips into delusional thinking in my life too and I could only recognize it after the fact. In the moment it seemed rational.

>>22842666
usually it is enough to feel anxious to realize something isn't as it should be, you are not normally supposed to feel impending dread for no reason or to be worried about life to the point that it causes you discomfort

My brain tells me you are right, but it sure doesn't feel like it. They also discussed some other stuff with us, but while everyone was crying, I was my usual self. I only made myself cry by focusing on how much they left me to my own devices as a kid due to working too much.
Also, I'm pretty sure they expected me to come out as gay LMAO.

>>22842855
Are you gay? Honestly it would have been an opportune time to come out.

Bluepills are fucking retarded they have a belief system that is utterly nonsensical. Blue pills believe every dude can somehow get a girl that is not possible some are too ugly to score anyone will tell you this but bluepills will say otherwise which is not right. It goes Face>height>fitness this is not disputable even normies will admit this bluepills,because they are retards,say otherwise and even have the gall to use “just go outside and see for yourself” no retards YOU go outside this is how I know you’re lying because unlike you I actually go out beautiful people are with beautiful people ugly people are with ugly people fat, ugly,short manlets do not get beautiful women they just don’t another fucking strawman I hate they use is when they go “any guy can get a girl” and tell some anecdotal story that is likely false retard some ugly guys can probably get a ugly girl but you’re a maroon if you believe they prefer that of course they want a beauty but cannot get one so they settled get with the program also “hurr durr wash your face” no amount of face washing is going to make you look like a A-lister ugly guys will still be uggos another thing I do not like is the “muscular midget” crap basically ugly short guys tell themselves that getting a six pack will some how put them on par with supermodel looking guys another,blue pill false claim,a muscular midget will lose to a tall guy who is even skinny fat also rich guys who pay off some bitches to get with them obviously don’t count but am sure bluepills will still try to use it as actual examples fuck they’re stupid. Bluepills are retarded they do not live in the same place we do they cannot.

>>22842458
I understood it until I started getting laid and realized the total disconnect and dissonance between how incel/loser men see women and what women really are. Women are not in possession of their sexuality or sex appeal in any way that even slightly approximates what men see in them. They are like 18 year old boys and men are like older gay men. The 18 year old boy can kind of comprehend the attention the gay man wants to lavish on him, but it's in a "fragmentary" way, whereas the older gay man's desire for the 18 year old boy is intense and singular. When a 18 year old boy consents to being "worshiped" by an older gay man, he is really just gathering up all the dim fragments or embers that are accessible to him, like "I am receiving money for this" and "I am receiving validation for this, I must be ... handsome? Charming? Good?," into a smouldering pile, while the older gay man is unleashing a pure intense beam of white hot fire onto the 18 year old boy. Within the older gay man's mind, "I am WORSHIPING this 18 year old boy" makes perfect sense, it's totally integrated into a total worldview, it's the focal point of that world, and the actual acts he's performing on the 18 year old are like the perfect expression of that unity. Meanwhile the 18 year old boy is sitting back and receiving the acts and adding yet another dull ember to the pile, "I guess this feels nice. Is that what sex is? Sort of feeling nice?"

Women only really "activate," in the way male lust is activated or potentially activated toward any and all women toward whom the man is attracted, when they love a man and they are experiencing his acts as proofs of his love for her and of her having captured and entranced him. They CANNOT experience simping in this way, most of them don't even bother maintaining the smouldering dusty pile of embers.

To me, knowing this ruins any appeal to simping for a woman. It's not even that she's uninterested in you, it's that being interested in you is an unthinkable thought to her. She doesn't get any joy, she doesn't see any symbolic meaning in you kissing her shoe or kneeling or calling her princess. The ONLY thought and feeling she has toward you is "I wish he was gone / I wish he did not exist for me." The only truly obedient act you could commit is ceasing your simping. This realization instantly reveals that all simping is really topping from the bottom and really a complex form of masturbation, since the woman is an infinitesimal point like Kant's "X" and all actual experiential content in the fantasy is being provided by YOU. You are basically fucking yourself mentally.

i don't think there has been a single day this year where i was glad to be alive. each year i tell myself "next year is going to be better" and still, every time it turns out to be worse than the ones that came before. I'm not feeling suicidal, i just feel that i lose touch with reality with each passing month. first i lost interest in most of my hobbies and started getting drunk most days with friends. now i stopped responding to my friends and it's been months since my last drink. most of my days i just read or sit around mindlessly in my room, not really feeling anything. the only thing that seems to occupy my mind these days is the frustration that comes with all this, i want to enjoy life but everything i try just seems to be without purpose and not worth pursuing, like why bother when in a couple of years it's all over anyways? i hope that next year something will change, that somehow i will be able to enjoy things again.

I wonder if we could see a potent "brotherhood" emerge among all men and "prophets" emerge with similar attitudes as the Buddha or the dudes who made Mithraism whereby women would not be allowed into the "brotherhood" (for obvious reasons) and will be seen as second class in some respects.

Even if we became radically successful overnight or did some hard pivot where we experienced exponential success growth from here on out, it would still not bring happiness. If you want to be happy, you need to find a way to be happy in light of success and not because of it. I think people should spend less time chasing success and less time chasing happiness and instead chase something worthwhile with their lives. If you are allocating the precious finite moments of your life to something worth doing, then being successful at it and being happy while you do it are merely secondary. I think we should all strive to figure out what is worth doing and then to do it. If you’re deeply unhappy, it’s probably less of a problem in itself and more of a sign that you’re not quite on the right path.

>>22843195
Happiness for me is a function of doing important work. I currently have a roughly 3-4 decade long plan to learn and master all the things I need to learn and master to complete my plan to help humanity achieve spiritual enlightenment more quickly. Every day is a blessing.

The grass can be greener. The upside of having been an engineer is that it’s a near-automatic smart guy qualifier. I once learned that the CCP prefers engineers over lawyers in party leadership. Why? They say they’re just smart. Hard to argue with that. Money might be a prohibitive factor, but engineers are generally smart enough to go do anything they want and the fact that our best poets, novelists, painters, and sculptors aren’t engineers probably has to do a lot more with coincidence and self-selection than anything else.

>>22843198
Right. I guess what I tried to say in other words is that “important work” is just doing whatever is worthwhile with your life. I mean, if the most worthwhile thing you think you can do is write novels, for example, you’ve got to go full tilt into that.

Actually a similar thing happened to me years ago. She was a childhood friend staying at our house. For some reason I completely friendzoned her. She'd play footsie with me, sit on my lap, wrestle on my bed, and one time under the covers she had her lips around my penis before I pulled away. I don't know why my brain couldn't see her sexually back then, I just saw her as a friend. Thinking back on it makes me so depressed because she was very attractive too. Even my parents were confused. They thought I'd eventually form a romantic relationship. When I told them I only saw her as a friend, they basically said I was dumb. She has a boyfriend now, and we don't speak to each other anymore.

Modern world doesn't allow for individuals like me to succeed nor even makes me want to. I hate the world I'm living in, excess conformity is the death of man's spirit and fertile ground for hedonism and degeneracy. Lack of God's presence makes every life decision meaningless. Existence of individuals from the same species as me, willfully ignoring every logical rule and constantly abusing it by fanatically imposing their way of thinking on me is bothersome. All I want now is a little peace as I drown in escapism fantasies of men from the past with mindset more or less same as mine before I pull the trigger as my senses will get more and more rusty

Theoretically, I already did. But practically I don't feel, and probably never will, sense of belonging to this world.

Recently I have come to see human competitiveness in everything, and in it I only see vanity. Everything done by people is done for status. The partners they chose, the cars they drive, the clothes they wear. It is all a symbolic signal of their tribal affiliation. Modern consumerism has smartly seen to a near infinite supply of cheap shit to “express” oneself with. There is nothing authentic in the material world, only in spirit can we be genuine and true to ourselves.
How can anyone look at themselves in the face? How can people keep going without weeping?
Who is there who has not done harm to another? Whose words have not hurt, whose look has not scorned? Name one such person.
There is no meaning in expressing oneself, for understanding is impossible. Do you honestly believe that any man could see another? Everything is a mask.
What is there to do? Embrace the world of the spirit and abandon the flesh. Leave the crowds and care for them not. What can they offer you other than vanity, and you them vanity in return?
Even the woman I love, whose body I am as familiar with as my own does not know me, and she never could. Everything about this world is a tragedy. All is false and there is no truth and nothing can be known.
What I have written is vain and untrue, it isn't what I wanted to say.

Honestly I just expected her to make fun of me and move on but she went 'Well, that's sudden, but yes. I'm not doing anything either so why the fuck not?'

I bought the tickets but I can't continue to spend my money on NPC-tier actions like that. Like I know I did this for a variety of reasons but it's so fucking weird. Stuff doesn't happen out of the blue like that. I feel like I was being compelled to do that shit by destiny. That's the only reasonable explanation

I am reading a selection of his stories, and he seems like an excellent writer, but it makes me feel a little sad how unhappy most of his characters are. Were Americans of that time really like that?

No, they're not.
I know a few old people who aged gracefully while still being fairly interesting people.
One's my dad and the other one's my grandfather.

What do asexual people do if they don’t have or are not even interested in sex am pretty jealous not going to lie.

>>22844358
asexual = women who has molested and is traumatized by sex and just uses the label as a defense mechanism but still has sexual urges , or man who is perverted so beyond normal sexuality that he just lies and says he's asexual so people don't question (they still do) his striking lack of attraction to any living human whatsoever

>>22840859
>Real wars are fought by volunteers.
Yeah. Fought and lost.

>>22844358
Stop taking these meme "sexualities" seriously

>>22840859
Real women have penises

>>22844367
Wrong on both fronts, asexuals are people with autism or a physiological problem

my sister's life is so much better than mine i just don't get it. how can we be born from the same family yet live completely different lives?

>>22840862
So weird you mentioned this as I was just thinking about that video recently. Been meaning to rewatch it actually

>>22844387
Because you're different people

Does it get any better than monday football and egg nog?

>>22844388
There is a breakdown by seconds in the first comment of the 7 minute video with 433k views on YouTube, I think the 3rd one down if you search great white fire nightclub. Incredible how bad it got so fast. The cameraman is lucky he headed out as soon as he saw the flames

>>22844386
>people with autism
ie. people with insane fetishes like only getting hard for balloons or whatever, we're discussing the same thing.

>>22844413
Yeah for real, autistic people are the most perverted

Am I romanticizing love? I feel like the average person never experiences real and true love. I feel like people just find and get paired with other people because it’s the thing to do, you know? I don’t understand how the average person is able to fall in love so easy. Surely, they can’t be experiencing real love, right? How do people so easily find others that connect with them on “every level” supposedly? A big reason as to why I am still single late into my 20s and never dated before is probably because I’m pretentious when it comes to the idea of love. Also, it’s extremely difficult and rare for me to actually open up and be vulnerable, even with my own family. I crave a deep damaging and instinctual type of love. I have no idea where to find it, but I crave it. Actually, it’s the only thing I will accept. I could never be with a man if I am not completely intertwined with his soul, body and being. Maybe every single other normie is experiencing the same thing that I speak of, and I’m just being ignorant by assuming that their desires are surface level. Maybe that’s why I am alone. I don’t know.

Censorship is always bad. If you're having a difficult time working out who is right and who is wrong, find out who wants to censor.

>>22844516
We should censor the pro censorship crowd

>>22844358
Asexuality isn't real. It's just incels or extremely inhibited people.
These people still have sexual desires they just deny them expression.

I'm listening to Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast from the beginning and this shit is hilarious to me, I wonder if it stays this funny. I hope it does.

>>22844566
Is it really so hard to believe someone doesn't have sexual desires? People are into all kinds of weird shit, human sexuality is endlessly malleable, I just see asexuality as another variation

>>22844516
Certain things should obviously be censored: slander, libel, inciting violence, inciting hate if it’s a non public figure, etc

bisexual here, hate to use the atheist argument, but asexual people just like one less gender than you. idk gay/straight people think that's somehow less weird that you were like, only one kind for me
though anons are right a lot of sexualities now are memes and you have to rely on the autists for actually weird shit

>>22844573
what is it about

asexuality is defined by their low to non existent libido and ability to live without sex, not everyone who is like that is autistic some people just got dealt a low libido hand and lack of real desire for sex
the fact that some people immediately assume that this is impossible is contrary to history where we have multiple examples of monks, saints, hermits etc who have had the same low libido and speaks more about how big of coombrains majority of people are than about asexuality

>>22844516

should be a simple concept to grasp, not his fault most people don't appreciate truth, if your regime can't handle criticism your regime is shit and based on lies

>>22844450
>it’s extremely difficult and rare for me to actually open up and be vulnerable
That's your problem. Other people are vulnerable and so have the opportunity to be known for who they are and loved for that. You're convinced it's going to be damaging but the point of it is to be vulnerable and not be hurt by it. Being vulnerable and hurt by doing so isn't love, but something closer to abuse.

should i cause more pointless but immense suffering to myself? yes or no, please answer quickly

>>22844602
yeah ok

>>22844603
ok

>Is it really so hard to believe someone doesn't have sexual desires?
The coom-drive is burned deep into our monkey brains.
There may be a few genuinely asexual people, but i bet many more just can't get any
