Last years have only been disapointment in myself. Wasting every chance I was given by life. I am a miserable self haiting failure, that can't quit this fucking pixelated pleasure. I can't say I was content with my life, but the constant dopamine hits were enough to being comfortable in my own failure. I feel like the years of sel inflicted pavlovian conditioning rewritten my brain. That I will always stay in this semi somaesque state. I became wanker, destroyer of ambition. One day I will wake up, bening lonely, middle age man, that realised that he wasted his life. I will cry, I will shout at the sky, I will spit in the mirror. And then, will watch it again, because what else is there to do at this point.

Consider the plight of the man who experiences anatomic autogynephilia and severe gender dysphoria. Since early childhood, he has secretly wished to be a female. He is erotically aroused by women and is also erotically aroused by the idea of being a woman himself. In both cases, however, his feelings go far beyond simple erotic arousal: He admires women, fi nds them beautiful, adores their bodies, and habitually falls in love with them. He also envies them and wants to have—wants to embody —all the admirable, beautiful features he loves in them. He wants to live in a body like theirs and lead a life like theirs. At the same time, he knows that he is not naturally feminine. When he considers
the adjectives that describe the women he habitually falls in love with—agreeable,
affiliative, cooperative, empathetic, gentle, graceful, nurturant, pliant, tactful, tender—he realizes that most of these adjectives do not describe him. He tends to be
competitive, dominant, independent, linear, logical, and tough-minded. He might wish he were more feminine, but his personality is not naturally feminine. When he is honest with himself, he also realizes that he never falls in love with men and only feels attracted to men when he is in the midst of an autogynephilic reverie. He has
cross-dressed for years and still does at times, but he finds that it offers him limited satisfaction: Even wearing women’s attire, he still inhabits his unwanted male body and still has his ugly, embarrassing male genitalia. Falling in love with a woman or having sex with a woman sometimes makes his autogynephilic desires go into remission for a time, but these remissions are always temporary: His autogyne-
philic feelings always return. And every time he has an orgasm, he is reminded of
two facts: Having a woman’s body is the most erotic thing he can imagine—and he
doesn’t have one.

His circumstances force him to consider the existential question: Could he live a
happier, more meaningful, more rewarding life as a woman—as a transsexual woman? Or would he be better off continuing to live as a man? >This is a genuine dilemma, because neither option is really satisfactory.
Continuing to live as a
man would be the easier, less expensive, and safer option: That way he could
keep his job, his reputation, his friends, and perhaps his marriage, if he has one.
Continuing to live as a man wouldn’t kill him; he has, after all, done it for years. He
could continue to live a life of quiet desperation. But he would still experience
signi fi cant and often severe gender dysphoria, perhaps every day of his life.
Eventually he would become an old man who had never tried to live his dream. He
knows that what older adults invariably regret is not what they have done but what they failed to do when they had the opportunity. The thought of wasting the only life he will ever have is sad and frightening

Alternatively, he could pursue sex reassignment. That way, he could at least tell himself that he had tried to live his dream. And, if he were to succeed in some measure, how great would that be? How many people can say that they achieved, in some measure, what they wanted most? If he successfully transitioned, he would finally be playing on the right team, the women’s team; and those awful male genitalia would be gone forever. But he also knows that he would never have a normal life as a woman: He would always be an oddity, albeit perhaps a fascinating or even admirable oddity. And he could easily lose any of the things that currently make his life comfortable and safe: his job, his reputation, his friends, his family. Moreover, the kind of womanhood he could achieve would inevitably be shoddy and inadequate: He would never be able to completely erase the masculinizing effects of testosterone on his body and brain, nor the masculinizing effects of decades of living in society as a man. For an autogynephilic gender dysphoric man to be willing to try to rebuild his life around his paraphilia by pursuing sex reassignment, despite the genuine risks and inevitable limitations involved, he usually needs to be both very brave and very desperate.

I'm wearing a The Smiths t-shirt that I bought when I was 14. It's so old, grainy and full of holes, but I cant get to ever trow in the garbage. I didn't went to Uni today because it was too hot and I was feeling a bit melancholic. Maybe it's because I didn't eat well today. Went to pay some bills in the morning and only eat some bananas and had a cup of coffe. Came home and eat some pancakes but they tasted like shit, maybe because they were in the refrigerator for too long. Anyway, Instead of going to Uni, I've stayed in home reading Adolfo Bioy Casares and driking beer. Had a nap too.
I have a 20 pages paper to write and I can't get the motivation to do it. It's for the next month, but I know I should start now. Maybe If I write a page a day it will be ok.
I'm generally not a sad person anymore, but sometimes I have some of these days, where I feel kinda empty, melancholic. This happens from time to time and it scares everytime, because in the back of my mind there's this voice that keeps telling me "hey, remember this feeling? It will come back one day and you will feel like this for a long, long time, just like before". I don't know what to writte anymore. I'm going to read some more and wait to the River x Boca match. I hope I wake up feeling better tomorrow.

It isn't. Unless you're physically restrained, the only person stopping you is yourself. I know it sounds very cliche. But it's true. Not doing anything is the easy, cowardly way out, just float along, tell yourself you're a determinist, put your hands over your ears and go "LA LA LA THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO".

You can find happiness and love through giving. *Giving is never a lie.* Selfless love is a choice. It begins with an action, and the emotion comes later, not the other way around.
If no one's coming to save you, why don't you go and save them, and maybe save yourself by the act? Give, and you'll receive. If you only want to receive, misery is all you'll get. Hence your current worldview. Realize that other people in the world are just as miserable as you are. Maybe they're too stupid to see that you need help, and how it could be given to you. Just like you're too stupid to see it in them. You can choose to bring someone happiness, if you want, you just have to forsake your own Want that has brought you only despair.

I'm utterly fucking obsessed with a girl I haven't even met, we talked through the dms and I managed to miss every single shot of flirting she threw at me. Now are conversations are lacking as fuck and shes blew me off a couple times by not responding for a few days despite me seeing her active. I know this sounds pathetic but I can't get her off my mind no matter how impossible it more and more becomes. I don't doubt that if I ever meet her I can get a fresh start or manage to grow in some way for her to contact me but for now I'm stuck in limbo waiting for a response that will never come. I often fucking double text just to talk back and forth for a bit then get ghosted. It's not like our conversations are dry neither, we got really close in a short amount of time and I doubt she HATES talking to me. Its just might be nuisance to her because I'm already categorized as a friend in her mind and I don't know her IRL enough for our conversations to have weight. Should I just give up until i'm contacted again/meet her? She's hardly active on her IG but manages to see my stories the instant I put them up. I got a small sign of compassion from her and have never been able to give it up since. And it's not that i'm ugly it's usually pretty easy for me to get a girl to fall in love with me but the one girl I LIKE is just straight up someone I've never met and sees me nothing more than a randie friend that hit up her DMs. I've never simped this hard what the fuck is going on

I will never travel hours from home to an English city with medieval heritage, in order to begin my university studies as an 18 year old full of of youthful optimism. I will never meet a big titted raven-haired ingenue English Literature student through friendship circles, begin dating and steal kisses under stone arches and in coffee shops in-between heartfelt discussions concerning the western canon. I will never go as a couple to a friend's Halloween party and get sucked off by a slutty witch wearing purple stockings in one of the many bathrooms of a country mansion, before returning to drinking games with a close knit circle of friends. I will never embrace the post-graduation future with confidence and take my rightful place in society. I will never spend Christmas at the family home of my future wife during the winter break in our studies, watching old movies in front of a roaring logfire, and will never spend rainy autumnal days in old lecture halls counting down the hours until the pub where my best friend is waiting to be rescued by the brotherly love of human kindness following a messy breakup.

It's just embarrassing at this point, like that one time I got super into ice hockey so I went to a skating rink because I wanted to learn how to ice skate and a bunch of 8-9 year old kids were literally skating circles around me. And the thing is I was always kinda interested in writing, but I never really learned how to in school. I think in twelve years of grade school, I've only had to do two creative writing/fiction assignments, one was a 20 page short story and the other was a poem. Everything else was read a popular book and write your thoughts about it, or write your thoughts about a certain topic, but never did they teach us about writing fictional stories. I'm 100% certain that not once had they ever tried to teach us how to properly punctuate dialogue between characters because I had to look this shit up when writing my stuff now. Is this weird, were my schools just super ghetto or do they just not bother teaching this stuff at a grade school level?

Everything comes to nothing.
I contemplate death (not suicide, just the end of my physical existence ) from time to time. The other day, I had a strong feeling of finality. As if my being was finally realizing (not merely thinking) that death will come. I wasn't afraid, but I did feel a deep pang of regret that I wasn't living as fully as I could be. Many things have been left undone so far, and I have to decide if I should let go of all the old dreams and focus on the spiritual life. I would prefer to do both, but there is only so much time and bills need paying. So I don't know. Sloth seems to be my biggest weakness at the moment.

The entire incel narrative about this movie misses the point, and that's exactly the point. Nobody wants to read into the actual subtext of it, which is "hurt people hurt people" that society's monsters are a reflection of its own monstrosity.
The Joker manifests in the course of the film an inverted self-actualization, he reclaims his life and turns his insanity into a weapon. Incels in contrast wallow in their decrepitude and never manage to take ownership of their lives.

>Also, I'm confused why it's a "joker" film, it doesn't look like it has much to do with capeshit
The director said that you can't compete with Marvel doing regular cape shit. Most of the DC movies attempt to be more art-house and creative, to attract those who don't like vanilla cape shit.

People are only scared of incels and mass shootings because of journalists. Journalism is a dying career and journalists are becoming increasingly desperate. Journalists will create controversies where it doesn't exist just to get some extra clicks. People react more strongly to the novel threat (that is unlikely to affect anyone) than they react to the common threat (which is likely to kill them). People don't care about the heart disease, cancer, and alzheimer's that will kill them, instead they're freaking out over the 0.00000001% chance of dying in a mass shooting that won't happen. The disgusting part of this behavior of journalists creates more problems and solves nothing. There would be less mass shootings if mass shooters weren't given so much attention, mentally ill people are desperate for that attention. The ironic part about "THE DANGEROUS NEW TREND YOUR CHILD IS DEFINITELY PARTAKING IN" section is that children would never find out about this trend if the news didn't cover it. One kid partakes in some dangerous trend, now its overblown all over the news and now all the kids know about it. I hope journalists are aware of how much damage they cause and how much their lives and careers are worth.
That was a bit of a long tangent. Anyways the director of the movie probably understands that incels aren't an actual threat and also understands that he can take advantage of the irrational fear people have over incels.

I'm just gonna let my fingers write whatever comes to mind.

I'm conflicted. I have lots of tension built up in my body.

I feel like the company I work in will end, and I will be fucked. I have already turned in some resumes. No one's called me yet, but this doesn't worry me big time because I'm a teacher and usually teachers are only hired every six months where I'm from, and places that do hiring between hiring seasons should be suspected.

I feel like some spoiled brat, and like less than a man. I feel like some sponge, soft and squishy, and prone to being smashed. I am a failure because I am not that which I could be.

But then what can I do? Well, I can only think of what not to do, and that is to fall into temptation. Vice hurls a man deeper into the abyss, and accelerates his downfall. I am in places higher than most of my peers, but I still am far below where I aim at.

As a matter of fact I do. I've always been a bit of a flaneur. Thankfully this little patch of overpriced real estate offers no end of walking opportunities.

There are nights when the lights blur filthily with the social contradictions. I pass a pack of models here, a gang of youths there. I slice through their microcosm for a brief second. A man with impossible densities of body hair stands intimately next to me on the train, barely a lover's breath away. A petulant feminist tosses her hair back at me. I read the grime on the sidewalk as dendrologist reads the rings of a tree, layers of gum, cum, and bum splattered about, telling a story.

Better yet when I wander into the accursed hellzones of tourist traps. The sensory bombardment is a violent assault. I can read a tourist from a mile away. The sheepish gait, the bulging eyes, the agape mouthes. I almost want to warn them, "get out while you still can." Of course I don't because every stranger here might as well be encased behind a glacial sheet of ice.
The best of course are the aggressive beggars who insult you when you refuse to patronize them. The very least you can do as the dregs of society is learn how to beg effectively. Is that such a monumental task? To ask without doing anything in return, but to do so politely? If your job is to do nothing but ask, then wouldn't it at least occur to you to ask nicely? And if I am to refuse you the fruits of my wallet, does that really make me worthy of vilification?

I wonder also at the superrich who haunt these corridors, what secrets they are hiding. I almost wish they would point me to the "money river" as Vonnegut called it, the hidden well of easy money that these types draw from because they are part of a certain caste. I might as well ask space aliens to explain their spaceships to me. It's a different world.

Despite it all, despite the offensively beautiful faces, despite the 3am food deliveries from Swiss restaurants (yes there are Swiss restaurants here) despite all the glamor and prestige, I wish I was in the woods, alone and unbothered.

She did no more than 3 low weight exercises. And as soon as I was done with my sets, she left immediately. These things have always happened to me. They’re always “coincidences” somehow, of course, you know. I know that at any time I could pursue these girls and satisfy my lust. How can I get these things out of mind?

You are like the same person as me. Everything from Reddit-spacing and being a teache.

I don't drink tea though; and I've seen all the anime I want at this point. My favorite anime's are <Nodame Cantabile> and <Whisper of the Heart> and <The Place Promised in Our Early Days>.

I also like <Full Moon wo Sagashite>

And I have a crush on Sayuri Sawatari.

But mostly nowadays I prefer K-pop girls to anime. I think Koreans are really beautiful and I love them. I like to buy girl groups' albums so I can get their photobooks and little cards to put in my wallet.

Overall though, K-pop is more painful than anime due to the fact that the pop-idols seem "almost" real, with a girl-next-door aura that teases you into believing that it's almost possible.

However that said, the pain inflicted on my heart by the girls' dating other guys, is a good way of learning from experience, to draw one's heart and mind toward what is holy, beyond that which is beautiful.

I'm on vacation this week. Drank my coffee, exercised, showered, ate a healthy vegan breakfast. I've got 14 hours of solid writing time left in the day with no obligations to be anywhere else.

I'm gonna write stories about finding love in unexpected places. I admire authors such as Danielle Steel and Nicholas Sparks. None of the characters I write use curse-words or skip church.

I watched a bit of Naruto, but it's so fucking huge I didn't have patience to keep up with it. I watched half of the classic version and like fifty chapters of Shippuden.

So I'm watching Madoka now. It's weird. I looked it up, and apparently it's targeted at adult male audiences, but it's all very... cute. Yet, it is interesting. I'm conflicted.

I was at a New Year's Eve supper in my wife's family last year. At some point, they passed around those very cheap, not sure how you call them, crackers? Looks like a large candy, you pull both ends, they make a loud crack sound and there's some toy or joke or message inside. Well mine had that little horrible toy inside. I think it was supposed to be a lion, small, roughly the size of a quarter. Everything about it was so cheap and wrong. It was grey-beige, you could hardly tell what it was supposed to be, it was incredibly poorly manufactured, the plastic was cheap and there were mold marks and leaks. Really a ghastly, absolutely useless little thing, not even a child would have been happy to get this.

And over the evening, I couldn't help but think about how something like that "lion" came to be. There was a long process behind this thing. At some point, someone had to decide that these plastic lions needed to exist. Someone had to sit down and draw or design it. The plastic molds had to be made and installed somewhere. How did this happen? Did some chinese factory just made a couple millions of these, put them in a warehouse and listed them in some catalog until a cheap cracker company ordered them? All that waste of time and resources.

Does the person who designed the sickly lion still thinks about it sometimes? Or did he completely forget he ever spent time on this?

It makes me nauseous when I think about those things.

Like the other day, I was eating those you know, pepper paste stuffed olives. Then I wondered about how they're actually made, with the hole, the X, the stuffing. Of course, there are YouTube videos that show the process. The pitting process is kind of cool, but the stuffing, man, those olives are hand stuffed.

You have those workers in some faraway sad factory who spend their days just stuffing olives for me to buy on sale at the supermarket. Those workers, they have lives, families. They leave their children in the morning for their 14 hours shifts then get told that they'll spend the week stuffing olives. Maybe they're paid by the number of bottles they fill? Imagine how pointless this all is. Instead of learning something, enjoying life, spending time with their children and loved ones, they stuff olives for hours on end. This time, they'll never get it back, and they might have been doing this for years, decades?

This is all so tiresome.

I feel as if time passes by quicker when you age. I don't remember what I felt like a week ago, let alone last month. It's not too bad, I can hardly stay upset at anything. At the same time, most things can't hold my attention for more than a few months. I'm just like one of those FoTMfags aren't I? Fucked up.

The weather was shitty today. Planning to buy a carton of ice cream tomorrow (strawberry). I don't have a fridge in my room so I'll have to eat it in a day. That's fine; I don't trust anyone in my dorm to leave a pint of ice cream alone. Every single year my university decides to stick me in a single instead of a double and I had wanted to go for a double because I'm a cheapskate but I don't think I can stand some normalfag sharing the same living space as me for a year and talking about all the fucks they're fucking. I would have invited someone to be my roommate but I don't have anyone. I was thinking of starting a film club but you can't call it the CASUAL film club because it'd invite casuals who only want to watch Marvel and pause the movie every 10 minutes to explain the plot. Alternative film club? That's not exactly what I'm thinking of either; sounds too arthouse. Dilettante's film club? It's too much.

I am a midwit; therefore the inconsistencies of my worldview are more apparent than the inconsistencies of a smart persons worldview. I live in a state of constant doubt; if I am consciously talking, I constantly use words like "perhaps", "maybe", or "I suppose". I have no political alignment that I know of; I want people to be happy and to live in a beautiful environment, but I do not know how to achieve it politically; therefore I choose to remain passive; I think it is better not to do anything if you have no clue about what you are doing, especially if your actions could negatively infringe on other peoples lifes. I have given up on philosophy, because it seems too lofty and abstract; which is to say I am not smart enough to understand it. My artistic dreams have become painful; I lack both talent and attitude; still, I say to myself: if I have no time for writing or dreaming about writing, I might as well kill myself; these thoughts are immediately followed by a slight wave of nausea and regret and shame for being a fuckup in the eyes of my mother; even though she supports me and loves me. I dont love her back with the same intensity; sometimes I dont know if I love her at all. I hate what I say when I talk to my friends; I want to be either funny, smart or say nothing at all; I manage neither and remember the days I have spend in a happy-sad way. I have picked up Tolstoys What I Believe. I hope I can become a christian; I dont care for metaphysics or salvation or enlightenment; I just want to have a sun inside my heart.

As a man of great talent, I have come to expect more from this world than it has to offer me. I look about me, resolved to accentuate it with some traces of my spirit, my boon, but no pedestals exist that support their nature, no foundation by my predecessor rises to the occasion, I am a strangled original.
To breathe the air launched from billows of mediocrity induces to no end a malaise upon my form; concomitance with these articles of filth stifles too my creation. Would that one could find an insular hovel to spend a lifetime building the foundation necessary, only to leap from one flesh to the next to finish the work upon the inevitable exhaustion of that husk, so light the constraints of time would be.
It is certain being there not a conduit established, nor time to craft it, that restive genius latent shall fade with the light of my spirit. It is difficult not to rue the inadequacy of my forefathers to prepare the world for my advent.

That's what my psychiatrist said.

I'm getting a new psychiatrist soon so we'll see if the diagnosis remains or not.

My life isn't that bad honestly. I've been detained for monitoring in the mental hospital 3 times, for about 1-2 weeks each time. It f--king sucks when you think about people having all this power over you. But in every mental hospital and support group I've been to, I'm always the one with a closest to normal life. I still have goals and I'm not hung up on blaming myself or God or one cosmic event. I still have good habits. I read , I write, I have a cat who helps me de-stress, I pick up a little money cat-sitting for neighbors and some tutoring and piano-lessons.

no. let me expound, though. basically i'm starting this project which will require me to gather a lot of intelligence. not just research information, i mean real-world intelligence about people places and things. for example, imagine i was going to go to every restaurant in a city and meticulously describe every detail of the experience in a notebook - what kind of people were there, where was the bathroom located in relation to the high traffic areas, how the food tasted as well as how it was presented, etc. i have to be very autistic about how i write down all this intelligence, i have to keep every scrap of it contained within the covers of one singular notebook. say i wanted to write an introduction at the beginning of the notebook where i wanted to say something like
>this notebook will serve as a *______* for this project."
what would that word be?

How fucking sad. I really thought it was a meme that people identify so hard with HP but now I saw it with my own eyes. Outrageous really.

Look at the top selling books on Amazon and B&N. People who like the classics are in the minority. Most books sold are YA, self-help, suspense/mystery or some other rubbish. I do know a few people irl who read some classics but I wish I knew more

I wouldn't even complain if they used anything else. Even if it was some garbage self-help how to not give shit/makes you think drivel. Even that would hold some modicum of meaning even if surface meaning. People can read whatever they want for all that I care.
But to treat this completely cashed out franchise in such a reverent and almost sacred manner was just too much. And so many too.
Even when I asked directly what that meaning was I didn't get any answers.
Sad state of affairs really.

I'm feeling pretty good. I graduate soon and I got a good grade. I'm working on mixology training at the same time since I don't know what I want to do yet. I think I might wait a year and apply for a postgraduate teaching course up in Manchester since one of my best mate's up there needs a flatmate for next year. I've slowly got myself back into reading regularly again, tomorrow I'm going to get up early, head to the gym then head to a cafe near it and brush up on cocktail training and read some Kerouac.

This same thing happens with at least 90% of /lit/ users. Ask them a question and they'll deflect the question and resort to name-calling.

i dont really think anyone believes this except for facebook boomers. its kind of interesting seeing all these you would think incel type people very interested in the movie, but a lot of "normie" (by 4chan standards i guess) are also really relating to whats been projected on the movie so far. it might be renamed into something else, but i really think incel culture is one that is going to be quite widespread from what ive seen in most 20 somethings.
