lmao snap (probably my fave pepe)

i cant tell you what to do, but having no real goals or dreams is the first step towards accepting the world as it is. not that you shouldnt strive, but casting off the yoke of having to fulfill some kind of destiny (which is something all young adults feel they have to do) can actually be pretty fulfilling and liberating, and not at all the nihilistic spiral most people expect it to be.

the real world is also foreign and absurd, but that doesnt mean it isnt worth your time. in fact, if you can find something that isn't foreign and isn't absurd, yet is still worth your time, i'll literally eat my shoe

Imagine being a woman and actually being able to be proud of the desire men feel for your flesh and holes. Get up right now and go start posing your fat man ass in front of a mirror, your man ass cheeks that are only slightly different from a woman's because of different hormone secretions from a gland in your torso, really spread and lift your thighs and cheeks apart so the mirror can get a good look at your hot taint and shit hole where your turds come out of, and think: If I were a woman, this would be great, this would be all I need to do. I'd be all done being a "good human" already! My HOLES give me worth, and the FAT DEPOSITS around them are just icing on the cake. No matter what else I do, no matter what I create, think to yourself as you keep your ass cheeks spread apart and your anus hole visible, this hole, this hole I have for shitting, and the sweaty flesh mounds surrounding it, is responsible for 90% of the attention I will receive in my life whether I realize it or not. Lift your ball sack and flop it around and mush it with your finger and think, there but for the grace of god goes a set of labia that would entitle me never to have to create anything or develop a personality. Stick your finger in your HOLE and imagine dozens, hundreds of men cheering you on and saying that's a great thing to do and you're a cool and interesting person for doing it. Imagine asking them, are you saying I'm cool and interesting just because I put my finger in my HOLE for you? And they say, no, you really are objectively interesting and cool, it's only a coincidence that I'm here to anonymously view you fingering your HOLE. Now prove you're smart, prove that you have a personality worth sharing with another human, by trusting those men as they tell you that they value you and not just your holes. Remember to squish the fat around, the fat that is unconsciously generated by your body and your hormonal profile and has nothing to do with anything you intentionally choose or strive to do with your soul, but simply sits there limply waiting for a man to give you money so that he can touch it. Now you're cool. You're a woman. Good job. You won the Cool and Interesting Person Award again. You win it every day! I bet it's because you have a personality and not because of your HOLES. Keep showing those HOLES to men. Wear clothes that imply you have holes ready to go at any moment. Wear clothes that squish together and heighten and firm up and make more visible all the parts that men love, all the parts that if surveyed men would say "These are the 10 best body parts on a woman," but remember, it's only a COINCIDENCE that you spend two hours a day and several thousand dollars a year on clothing and makeup and devices specifically tailored to display those body parts. It's only a coincidence. You love to do it. It makes you feel good, so you chose to do it. It's not because men give you attention for it. You are't just your holes and fat.

An idea coming from nowhere is just the same as if it was born inside you. She didn't understand the impulse to slither into his sheets when he was away, but without second thoughts, or indeed first thoughts, she did it. What she did next also came naturally. Maybe she could smell him. Maybe she wanted him to smell her. It was all very primal, like when she spit into his drink. That whim, likewise, came from nowhere and everywhere at the same time. Anything she hoped to accomplish with these actions was completely lost to her.
Then they would nearly collide around a corner. So close, as to be conscious of each other's breath. He'll smile, she'll blush. Staring into her eyes in such a way that she is rendered incapable of looking away, or even moving. Like frightened prey, she stands hollow, petrified, exhilarated as he, eyes fixed as if forever, reaches down to her hand, lifts it gingerly, and slips her aghast fingertips between the lips of his predatory grin. It's entirely possible that she becomes a puddle in that moment. Humiliated, exhilarated, she'll close her eyes. When they open again, he is gone, a phantom, a ghost. But her fingers are wet, and she wonders if she will ever speak of this moment to anyone, ever. She wonders if she believes it even happened.

The other day I went to the bookstore. I am a Jew, not ashamed, but not a publicly spoken Jew, mainly because there are not a lot of Jews where I live. Half of the racks were filled with self-help, money-driven cultish books. The other half were teenage novels, fantasy and veganism. No history on sight. Wandering through the halls, I found a miserable bookshelf with a sign on it. "Universal History". One book about the Romans. Two books about Egypt, however esoteric. Seven books, told lavish stories about the Second world war. The rest was about Nazis, Auschwitz, Hitler and so on. You couldn't find a word about the French Revolution, about the First World War, about Napoleon, about the Tudors, about anything. Not even America. And I felt sadness deep in my soul. People were not interested in the history of progress, the history of humanity. They were interested in the history of hate.

Living the NEET life for sometime now, and I doubt I will resolve myself to fix it anytime soon; the more time I spend in my head the more I see my inadequacy; being a conscientious and unproductive makes an illcontent mind. I didn't goto any prestigious university, nor could I; many things will always be beyond my person, hindsight or not.
Slowly I've become less of, what a politician would call, a consumer; next to no television, very little care for social-media activity, and material needs gone.
Events in my life have caused me to never develop fully emotionally; gaining habits seem outside of me, empty of impulse -little drive or will- to even shape a dream, any dream, to run to.
I have made 'progress' of a kind I suppose in that I am somewhat more disciplined, in a way; go to the gym, read more, eat better, and even less porno, if you would believe a NEET. However I don't know, yet, if this charge into discipline is not -rather than will to improve- some distraction from boredom, that great sickness that has plagued me, that body-wagon that carried me to this emotionless pit. It runs so deep; O' through skin and bone so deep, that I am not unhappy or illcontent that I have said -or maybe described to you- I feel nothing but the unsteady feeling of wandering a piece of Ash bark might get ride on a river.

I used to wish for tragedy. Growing up I was always looking up to people, whether from movies, games, or books. I never had a role model irl. Batman, Snake, Gatsby, etc. And the link between them all was they suffered through tragedy. I guess I thought it made them interesting. I would sometimes think that if one of my parents or siblings were to die, or if I were to get in a bad car accident or a mugging, it would make me more interesting. I wanted drama in my life because mine was so ordinary. I wanted to be like the people I idolized. I wanted to be the kid people talked about in school because his parents had just died.

It seems so weird to think back on now. I don't really feel shame over it, I was a kid at the time and didn't really realize that I probably wouldn't like it if it were my reality.

Getting a gf and having sex it really feels sometimes like an impossible task. In my short life, I was conditioned so much that these aspects that now they seems like something so unreal, like reaching the end of some kind of postmodern odissey. I'm not as naive as it seems, trust me, I do know how much is dangerous and unsatisfactory the sex/romance world is, but anyway for my mind it feels like some kind of bizarre, yet unreachable promise land. I'm not a robot, I'm not a monster, I'm not a villain but still, I feel like I'm doomed to fail everytime, while others sometimes win. Am I in purgatory? Sometimes everything smells like fake Prada purses. Seeing a psychologist helps but it still feels like he's a mere product of the bizzarre simulation I'm living in. Better go to sleep now, bizzarre dreams of alternate realities that I can hardly remember await me.

I went to a restaurant to pick up food and made small-talk (sort of) with the girl who got it for me as she was doing the cash register stuff. She had a name-tag that said "(TRAINING") after her name so I asked her how the training was going and she was actually pretty honest about not liking the job but needing to do it. It made me feel a little bad, honestly.

I am working as a favour to a friend (and will soon quit because I hate it) but I don't even have to, and my colleagues need their jobs and that. It's depressing in a way, you know? They're good guys and to see them struggling hurts me. I can't do anything about it, though, and that hurts a bit more. I don't want to say it's pity or anything because that's a bit insulting, no? I empathise with them, though.

The girl was cute and we shared a small laugh when I said I could never work in a restaurant. Then we parted ways. I kind of hope I see her again if I go there because I actually admired her honesty about the question when she could have just been completely fake and positive. It was nice. A nice interaction.

My social anxiety has virtually disappeared overnight. A few days ago, I thought "What if I attempt to engage with people during conversation instead of shrinking back?", and immediately I hit the same level of calmness as everyone else in public. Tonight, it went even better. Rather than basing all my action on some pre-conceived image of how I'd like to be, I simply acted on my emotions, and viewed everyone else as a potential friend instead of another species. As a result, a huge weight lifted from my shoulders, and a part of the world clicked into place. Granted, the apathy hasn't eased up, but this is a big step in the right direction, and gives me a lot of confidence for returning to university in the Fall.

For anyone reading this, it's immensely worth it, I used to lift traditionally and I save more time/money this way, as well as feeling more fit and aware of my body.

you'll see more improvements, there's nearly endless possibilities, and it's much harder. You'll suck major ass in the beginning and it'll take you over a year to progress through all of the possible alterations/complications on the routine. You'll probably feel the difference immediately, but after about three months you'll already look and feel completely different.

100 pushups and crunches each day isn't useless. I actually started there, but I did figure out a better variation on it after a while, pushups and abs alternating days:

do as many as you can in 30 seconds or until failure, start with 30 seconds rest in between, decrease as that becomes easy.
30 seconds one leg pushup
30 seconds other leg
30s wide arm pushup
30s forget the name of this, put one hand fingertips down by your side, the other in normal position but fingertips pointed inward.
30s other side
30s diamond pushup
30s tricep pushup
30s one arm side-pushup
30s other side

for abs, start doing poses before crunches as soon as possible, starting with a goal of 30s each

plank
sideplank both sides
superman
reverse plank
hollow hold

then do your crunches

Great books by unknown writers get denied simply because most agents have no idea what the fuck they are doing and don’t want to take a chance on anyone. They want it to look like they discovered someone without actually taking any risk. Look up the great books that were denied multiple times for publication. Dubliners for example got multiple rejections. You just have to roll the dice and keep shopping it around to different publishers, how do you think publishing houses get in bidding wars over novels? The writer sends it to multiple places and once they get one offer they go back to the houses that were unsure and say, “so-and-so offered me this, if you can’t top that then you’re not getting my book.” And then the fear of losing something that other people recognized as good makes the bidding war start.

90% of agents don’t know shit about what’s really the best, they just filter out the obviously shit stuff with grammar mistakes and cliches.

George had been in limbo for the past few months. George has lacked the drive to pursue fulfillment thanks to feminism. To put it quite simply, George is a sexist prick. Has been, and perhaps will be for the rest of his life. It did not help that Stacy, a seat ahead of him, decided to flaunt her femininity.
About Stacey- why? What drives her and all women to act childish yet demand to be respected. George can't cope with how strong his distaste for women is. Perhaps it stems from Mother never providing chicken tendies. Stacey has the eyes of a woman who would quell George's access to the tendies. George's grandfather bickered for these women's rights and here they are in 2018, flashing lights in his eyes while he waits for his damn chicken tendies. George is sure that Stacy will ultimately amount to transmuting society into a cesspool for the elite to feminize George Junior. George at this very moment considered defecting to the Russians in order to help prop up an institution where his frail masculinity has a runway to thrive, where he can wait for his chicken tendies in peace.
Chicken tendies will subdue George's jejune sexism for now, but the compulsion to choke Stacy lies resting thanks to his red-hot anguish towards the Matriarchy.

As the nights straggle on, facing them now like a future entrapment that will take all my wits to unfurl myself from—some viscous sinew folding over my luminescent slice of space and time, forcing myself further aloft from me, to look down upon a motley of self-imposed fervour, pushing me towards the higher antechambers of isolation, where upon I can sit and record the flecks of dust in morning rays as they pass incessantly, day-by-day, noting only the change of the colour of the sky in the thin air.

I'm probably going to go back and make sure I get her next time. Hopefully she will be out of training and doing well. I will also probably give her $20 for gratuity.

I am a privileged shit that doesn't even really have to work with no real need for money so I hoard it all like Thrain because there's barely anything I want to spend it on. I'm miserable in my job but promised by current boss I wouldn't leave until I had another (since my hiring apparently started the landslide of getting people to help her son who was doing everything unfairly and suffering) and I'm willing to take a pay cut just to get out. Money is stupid anyway. I'd rather give mine to a good cause.

I feel like I'm purposefully holding myself back from getting close to qts. Every time I crush on a girl, which is already a rare occurrence, I'll almost immediately start finding flaws about them and building up an idea of how disastrous a relationship would be with them to the point where I lose interest. It seems like a coping mechanism for wanting to avoid rejection, but I think I might just have some ridiculous standards that I can't get rid of. It seems like everyone else is so willing to date a girl based off of pretty feeble reasons and are willing to overlook a lot of flaws, but I demotivate myself from pursuing them when I inevitably find things that aren't compatible with me. Am I just being a picky faggot and should just go for it anyway?

I slightly disagree with this reading of the right. I think it's sound, but saying "societal value X is not accepted because it's perceived to be a trojan horse leading to societal value Y" without explaining why societal value Y is disliked is just kicking the can down the road.

Suppose you're in a grocery store picking out your favorite kind of juice, but, you're allergic to everything but orange juice. If you tell your friends "Orange juice is my hands down favorite kind of juice--" they're going to point out that it's really just the only thing you're physically able to drink. Maybe they'd be more convinced if there were at least two kinds of juice you can drink, Grape and Orange, but they're still going to tell you you've got a rather small sample space. Had you lacked those allergies, you might have liked a different flavor more.

Consider the implications this reasoning carries when applied to the selection of life partners and the effects sexuality has on said selection. If you're a straight married male, it's entirely possible that there could have been a partner who you would have loved more if you were gay or bisexual. It's a fact that you carry this epistemic uncertainty with you. You might want to say that your sexuality is an essential property and that there isn't even a possibility, but the fact that animals can change roles on a whim suggests that it's just coincidental.

This explains why god-giveness/predestination always comes up, why Gays discriminate against Bisexuals instead of the reverse (LGBT+ is obviously written in order of importance), etc; when a person see someone else exercise a freedom the person themselves doesn't have, they get mad about it. It's fag envy.

Always find a way to talk myself out of making that next step even if it's pretty obvious they're into me.

I read The Picture of Dorian Grey for the first time about 6 months ago. It was one of the first real literary novels I've read after really getting into reading. I enjoyed it very much.

But since then I've read multiple other books, better books. Now that I'm rereading it, I find myself being much more critical of it. I'm not amazed by the quality as I was the first time because I've adapted to reading works of quality. So now that I have a different, more learned mindset towards writting I can pick out flaws and be much more ciritcal. And it's ruining my enjoyment of it. I still love the story but I completely disagree with most of the content.

The only thing I can think of why I am is by watching my older brother.

My whole life he has always told our parents everything. He talks with them about his daily life, his gf's, his sex life, fears, hopes and dreams. I have never understood why someone would do that. It always felt inappropriate and unnecessary. Even when I was very young it would disgusting me, that he would be so open.

To reinforce it my parents were always the type to reply in a patronizing way that defeated the point of saying anything in the first place. They would never have actual conversations about anything.

So I guess at a young age I just learned your better off keeping thoughts and feelings to yourself rather than show them to people.

We do have a good writers and poets, but the discussion about their works (in my native language) only exist in the academic circle and monthly literary journal.

To make things worse, a few young milennial started an independent literary movement that decided to be against the nationally established classic works. The movement gained a huge momentum, almost 10 new publishing company were successfully established and operating, to publish mostly fedora tipping, edgy fictions.

I really don't mind if whatever that they're publishing has actually any real literary merit, but it's not. In their own word, they completely dismissed classics works by the our national laureates by calling it boring, and inaccessible, to the press.

It's something that I find hard to express, and it will sound like an old man's rant but it shouldn't be dismissed just because of that.
First I'd say that when a technology appears, it suppress the human capacity it is supposed to enhance by replacing it in some way (for example writing and afterwards print suppressed the impressive oral memory people had before, which can still be seen in some foreign tribes). One of the technologies that has the biggest impact on our day to day lives is communication technology and it has to have an impact on the way our relationships work. Also they inherently mediate the relationships, that are thus losing authenticity. Something mediated can't be the real thing. I'm writing this while going home drunk so I don't know if I'm coherent. I'm gonna read some Jacques Ellul soon, maybe I'll be able to put better words on this

Some shitty edgy stuff

Light came over the sky this morning
No sun shone its shine.
The reddish grey of dust and smoke
Muddled with earthly despair.

That despair I share in the twilight
And the day and night.
That urge of murderous glee
To pierce the heart of me.

A gruesome kill would occur
Bleed out body.
My entrails torn from casing
Like sausage bursting.

A bursting to stop the hurting
Where I can mix my worth
Into the crying and fragile Earth
So the dust stops swirling.

Oh how swell it would be
To be free from this Hell.
Accept the dark and let the sun shine,
To stop, break and defeat me.

My sister had another mental break a few days ago. She was responding so well to the medication, but for whatever reason she snapped. Started headbutting the wall. Put two dents in the drywall. My parents are acting like it can always be swept under the rug, like usual. They don't have long on this planet and what happens then? There is no more welfare state, no real round the clock care for even people like my sister. She isn't able to take care of herself and it's made worse by my whole family's dumb fucking hostility to DA GUBMINT and ELITIST doctors, instead they give her medical marijuana extracts and other nu-age cures. I'll have to take over as her caretaker because means-testing bullshit and her hostility to hospitals means it's either I care for her or consign her to the streets.

I feel trapped, I want to move away and start a new life but what happens when I do that and my parents lose the ability to take care of my sister? I feel like such an idiot wasting most of my twenties on politics and image boards and arguing with other idiots. I realize now that 99% of politics is pointless, it's like trying to stop a hurricane from coming ashore. You're better off securing your own property and taking shelter to preserve your own life.

I've been so bleak lately. Or rather, in yet another spell of struggle; used to be for want of pleasure, now it's for want of reason. I have accepted that there is no destiny for common man, no grandeur adventure. Perhaps a goal to make money, and others want to be happy, or want a job teaching blind kids or designing cars. I live in a basement and had to pay my mother's speeding ticket that she put off since December. My introduction to a multi level marketing business left me drunk of delight not too far from the thought that I could be financially free by 24, and own an FD rx7. A couple clicks told me it was a scam, and I would be a robot burning money. Nowadays the same people I've looked at and thought were going nowhere suddenly seemed so mobile in their plans, and I'm not owning that car just yet, or my own house by 24, or security for my dad who has a civil engineering degree and now works part time at Giant. However, I did re-weigh myself at the gym today after boxing. Lost a couple of pounds since I weighed myself 3 days ago, was it sodium fluctuation, or some dietary change, I thought. My goal is to make it to ottermode by summer. Hiking and bouldering is another goal too, and my friend might take me sometime, it's been looking sunny today.

Why do you need to know you are successful, and what good does progress do you other than to show you where to align yourself next, align your memethoughtfeels with your rationalidentity, that dual booting workstation in front of your Awareness.

Getting success is needing the meritocratic fix. Success is worthless to one who sets goals and achieves them without the end having more worth than the end itself. Especially for your "chaos" magician beliefs, the addition of variables is preset to stability, or homeostasis. You cannot therefore render anything more than smaller and smaller successes.

A pathway that is important remains important even when travelling another route. This is how to read a map. The mountain is as similar as it is dissimilar, you have climbed this mountain and this is not that mountain but another that you can climb in the same manner or in some other manner different than before, but only so much different. Some amount of the first is imprinted on the second, something which I'd like to visualise as a white sheet pressed against a tablet and a coal pencil reveals the environmentsysbols (though not yet made symbols) with the coal dust as depth, (a verisimilitude, uncanny, but only in shape). Then page after page is added to the sheet alone, well maybe not alone, but maybe sometimes touching the world. Maybe sometimes the page only touches the raised chalk layer.

To be honest my personal epiphanies today were not due to how minuscule I am in relation to the universe, but how minuscule I am compared to society and the social circles that reside within it. I seek validation in areas of a zeitgeist I neither understand or are able to comprehend the ability to empathize with "it". Like anecdotally everyone has some rough idea of their next 5 years to some degree but my entire life I've never felt anything worth focusing on, always little things like sports or games where I can momentarily fixate and focus until I get to a point I feel proficient over others. Grinding in games until I'm at a ranked where I'm suppose to feel accomplished but yet I'm not. I just want something that I'm passionate about that can contribute to something or someone or at least make me feel that way, y'know? I've tried the do two years and GEs until you figure it out but it just made me spiral out harder when I couldn't. ah fuck it the absolute irony of overthinking nirvana is too {spoiler]autistic[/spoiler] even for me.

personally i'm pretty thrilled with how great being older and wiser has turned out. i know what i want to do with my life, i have one career behind me, career goals in front, and free college or seminary if that doesn't work out. and best of all I know I don't want to get married or have kids unless I meet someone REALLY fucking special but I'm not sure they exist so best not to worry about it.

A few unrelated things:
I'm becoming increasingly paranoid and have dreams of people backstabbing me, laughably outlandish dreams of bombs dropping near my house, and a fear of people trying to break into my house (most likely caused by past trauma when my house was broken into when I was young)

Only amusement I find is through the arts and culture -- paintings and such. Despite being decently artistically inclined (thanks, Dad), I'm also very computational and will most likely pursue a career in Computer Engineering/Science as those jobs pay the most. I don't envision myself working a desk job coding for some tech-giant company though -- it's too closed, I need a job where I can express who I am and not be another tech nerd that accomplishes nothing.

This is my second encounter with her. I met her at the local ice cream parlor where she works. God I'm a hopeless romantic I can't bring myself to talk to her from fear of embarrassment. She's so pretty with her corduroy, plaid hat and her ponytail. Sorry if this is word vomit I'm exhausted and needed to get this off my mind

I just put together a crossword puzzle with a theme ("not quite palindromes"). It's 3:06AM. Shit took me 6 hours but I want to submit it to the NYT tomorrow.

I wanted to create crossword puzzles when I was younger. Or mazes. Or something like that. But I gave up on it because my sister was the artistic one, and I was the "smart" one. Her art is great- she's in art school now, I'm finishing up my Master's in education (math). Still, I wish I could've at least given it a shot when I was younger.

Anyway, if it's published, I'll get $300 for it. It just occurred to me that the edTPA is also $300. So it's not a total loss.

We do nothing but laugh at the same pains that trouble us. When one seeks true meaning and states these questions they appear idiotic and, ironically, meaningless. I have lived most of my adult life believing that there is no meaning to life and that it's alright, I don't need a meaning to know that I want to make those I appreciate happy and proud. But this way of seeing life has its obstacles, as I have experienced them first-hand. I am unhappy. I feel alone and empty.
My problems are meaningless but meaningful, for life is nothing but a series of contradictions.
Basic and obvious statements.
Stop.
One day I'll cry and the next I'll just cringe at myself.
I'm not even good at writing, I can't put into words what I feel. I am just seeking for a way to express myself.

the main thing on my mind is: how do i respond to a girl sending me selfies

she's done it three times now. i just respond to the caption on the selfie and try to start a conversation that way. the conversations we have IRL are fun, but the social media ones are really shit. should i compliment her pic? should i send a selfie too? how long should i wait before responding?

worrying about this shit feels about the same as existential death anxiety desu. i got out of a depressed social isolation rut and i guess im happier now but it's hard to tell sometimes. like, i was infatuated with an aussie girl for about a month and the stress/anxiety for interactions with her wasnt far below when i had a breakdown alone in my room a few years ago. when i hear a phone buzz i still tend to assume that it's someone else's.

feels like i will always be stressed and anxious regardless of the state of my life. lifewise im probably doing better than most of the people in this thread, in that i have friends, engaging well-paid career prospects, and rewarding hobbies, but inside i feel similar to when i had no friends, was severly underweight, and spent most of my time playing videogames and watching anime. it's like i have most of the same thought processes as before but they've all shifted into this new socialised setting - 'socially adjusted' has more meaning than i thought it did. people like my personality and think im funny/interesting but i still get stuck in old overthinking cycles that keep me up for hours, making me not want to socialise, making me want to regress. im certain it's vestigal of the selective mutism i had as a child, but i dont know what to do about it other than drink a lot. another worry is convincing people im not an alcoholic.

i wrote this stanza and like it a lot:
the air whirls - absorb it
my dress sequined with stars
as i twirl, they orbit
emit, and hide my scars
