i was just chilling with this horse, scartching him, in the hours of faintest early sunset, and for a moment my inner dialogue became so quiet i could hear the grass drinking the rainwater - crisply and surely behind the chirping of unseen birds, a dog barking somewhere, our stablehand shepherding the sheep.
i heard the grass live.

I'm not even mad at her because I'm a boring whiny loser, but she should've at least been clear with me and leaving me all of a sudden with no warning was shocking as I thought she was the last person who would do something like that to me after all those times we talked about how much we loved each other and how much we meant to each other, I don't blame her I guess because I feel like I have nothing to offer and she has better people in her life but I can't help but feel cucked now and realize how I had been played. I'm not turning into a woman hating incel tho, I've just lost my faith in women because I don't think there will be anyone else better than her, I will never give my heart to a woman and never set high expectations with her

“Put it in my butt” she said. And I did.
The next morning we had coffee on the baranda and the wind was blow a warm breeze and the music from the turntable was booming some rap song.
My phone rang and it was phone carrier on the line. They suggested I let six new phone lines for the price of four. He explained how much and improvement this would be to my monthly savings and giving four other people in my family the ability to own one of their own phones. But then, behind his words, I thought myself, ‘would I have to buy them phones too? Who the hell does this guy take me for?’
“Who are you talking to” she said in a high pitched, almost nagging voice. I just hung up and realized that in the time between seeing her and her saying that I became very depressed.

Been reading Plato, and thought about something when reconciling with Euthyphro and The Republic

What makes the just, just? Socrates actually doesn't really answer it in The Republic, Thrasymachus and Polemarchus just say that it is either might makes right or being good to friends and evil to enemies. All Socrates says is that it is to your advantage to be just, and otherwise with being unjust. He then goes on Thrasymarchus argument that it is benefital to do just no matter what, which I can agree on. Socrates argument is that the just puts the soul in its right place, so that it is virtoustic.

However, what makes the just, just? Is those things that makes you virtous just? Or are things just in themselves and it is also happens to make you virtous?

What does the prisoner do, who knows, that he is imprisoned for the rest of his life? Does he accept the prison and kill the part of himself that wants to be free to become free in his own mind or does he try to escape but fail inevitably over and over again to maintain the illusion of potential freedom? Which option is the one, that is more free?

I just think if I had fuck you money, I would design a room with the toilet in the middle of it. The room is actually quite big, like you could ride a bike in it. There would be no place to put the toilet paper so it would have to come out of the ceiling on a string. I don't want it to just hang in there so you would have to clap a few times to call it.
Now I just imagine how all of that would sound from the outside. Somebody takes a shit and starts clapping.

I understand that there are actions for which you feel that an apology is owed to me in the interest of reconciling the years that now separate us. As a courtesy to you, I will inform you that I have cultivated a life for myself that does not accomadate a space for you in it, lest these efforts continue to be wasted.

Meanwhile across town my mother was buying my grandfather prescription pills for arthritis. The pharmacist is my ex girlfriend. So I asked my mom to make sure to wear sunglasses and a hat so that she doesn’t recognize you. My mother became very angry and started yelling at me and saying a lot of nasty things about some of the things I’ve been doing lately and generally being “a shadow my son”. Whatever. So I had to pick up the pills myself. So I’m waiting in line and my ex girlfriend recognizes me and we chat and I see that she’s looking very attractive and I try to have her sell me some narcotics. But she was like that is illegal and that what I’m doing could get me into big trouble. Not what I was expecting. All of a sudden this random woman shows up in sunglasses, face mask and hat, realize it’s my mom. My phone rings and it’s my phone carrier again, this time saying I’m past due on my phone bill. Out of nowhere tell me why my ex girlfriend pharmacist begins scowling me and saying a lot of nasty things about i need to grow up and I swear to god she used the words “a shadow my friend”. I didn’t realize this until I had driven across town and dropped off the prescription pills. So that was Monday.

Since the corona outbreak I'm often looking outside the apartment window and I'm not sure what is different when I'm looking at the random people who sit on the benches in front of the building. Yesterday there was a pair sitting, first I thought it was some middle age hipsters because one person had white hair and the other one looked kinda goofy. But then it turned out it's an older women and her daughter. The daughter was in her mid thirties, I'm don't want to sound rude but there was clearly something wrong with her the more I looked at her. Anyway someone passed by them leading a small dog and the two sitting were following the dog with a happy expression on their face. But you know that feeling when you smile out of courtesy then your smile just stays on your face slowly morphs into something vile as your real emotional state comes back to your face? They were doing that, but why? Who were they showing courtesy to? The dog? Did they know I was watching them? And today on that same bench there were two guys sitting and having a conversation. Because of the L shaped bench they both had their back turned to from where I was looking at. Everyone looks so secretive.

Anger may reflect/be rooted in, either: fury, or hatred.

Lately I have confirmed for myself that, taking personal circumstances into account, there will always be a fundamental difference in depth of comprehension of fury - in oneself, and in others - between one who has the constant physical and/or psykhical luxury of idealizing - and preserving oneself for - finality, and one who has the constant physical and/or psykhical misery of having to walk with unresolved anger, no matter how much he/she may mundanely sublimate it, or overcome it; this also translates into one's artistical expression & taste.

Ultimately, all sublimated perspectives are directed toward the fullness of the Orb.

I don't know why he just suddenly stopped being affectionate and got so distant, I wish he had just talked to me. I still really love him but it was unfair to put me in a position where I was begging for crumbs of love and affection when I was willing to give so much. It got so one-sided and it really broke me to end things but I had to do it for my self-respect. I also don't understand why it is that the moment I break things off suddenly he starts being a fag and posting about being heartbroken and all this poetic nonsense when he would ignore me for days and refuse to try and talk things out, especially during quarantine. It's not like he was busy. I don't understand.

Contemporary and modern poets and philosophers attempting to replicate the notions and viewpoints of old with metaphor and pretense are beginning to seem more and more as egotistical narcissists than actual literary minds to me, and I have grown to despise them with a borderline fervorous zeal. I've found more literary value in reading Superfudge than a single "work" found in Thus Spake the Corpse.

I'm writing a novel in which one of my main characters is a very pretty, popular girl in school. I've mostly avoided directly showing this aspect of her because she has friends who are NOT like this and she's mostly been in their company so far in the story. But I've got a part of the story coming up where I'm going to need to depict her at her full alpha bitch power level. Obviously this has been very far removed from my own experiences (especially because I'm not a girl). So I'm trying to do some research on how Stacys behave in their natural habitat.

Unironically when I was 19 I decided I wanted to be less of an awkward sperg, so I started hanging out at the food court at the mall. I didn't talk to anyone, I just bought food and sat there for like 2-3 hours, watching normies and trying to figure out how they did things; what they wore, how they interacted with each other, how they walked, ate, etc. In the end I don't think I ever became any less awkward (though I did learn how to dress better). However, I found that the same observation technique is useful for writing.

If that's too weird for you it's also perfectly acceptable to just pick a character in a book you like that more or less fits the archetype you're going for, and do a study of them. I find I like the way Fitzgerald writes women, although most of his female mains are just based on his crazy-ass wife.

Turn the exhaustive fire of your fury into exaltive Light, by consistently devoting yourself to something excellent that fulfills you, whether this begins with becoming a warrior through selfdiscipline (which is autofulfilling & propulsive), or with selfdisciplined motion toward a greater artistic and/or heroic goal - something that you love, and would love to share; Love impels furious anger under its control, behind the shield of its influence.

The end of martial struggle/excellence is to become yourself via becoming a warrior and/or a Hero - in this consists the exaltation of Spirit, and the glory of overcoming this world.

One's lifestyle conditions one's potential; the choices that one makes, and the actions that one takes, affect the potential to make other choices, and to take other actions; thus, succumbing to ignobility, with entailing spillage of Soul, is, ultimately, due to one's own fault.

I've come to realize how accessibility is the most important factor behind our favorite activities and how it plays a huge role in literally everything we do. Making a movie for instance is such a hassle that I can always come up with excuses not to do it. I do not stop ourselves from playing vidya, watching porn etc. simply because it is so easy to do it. The fact that I can do so many things with just a few clicks is reason enough to do it.
Helping the poor would be cool and all, but how can I do that? No idea, so I'm just not gonna do it. Is the simplification of our everyday life via internet accesss, food delivery and voice assistants actually making our lives harder instead of easier simply because other (arguably more important) activites seem like such a hassle now? I wonder how far this will go. We already entered dimensions we couldn't even think of 20 years ago.

It kind of just seems like semantics at that point though, no?

So lets take Judas' betrayal of Jesus. According to the gospel, this is "predestined". In John, it goes so far as identifying the perpetrator beforehand, as well as the motives behind said betrayal (i.e., greed). This prophecy (among other prophecies) implies that "x's" choice was set in stone beforehand, regardless of which axiom it rested within (good vs. bad).

If by "semantics" you mean "sophistry", or "obfuscation", then you miscomprehend.

Judas Iscariot - being one of the only genuine Christians from among Jesus' disciples, beside Mary Magdalene, John, and Thomas - was consciously fulfilling his preassigned task when he betrayed Jesus.

No. Not particularly. The distinction between free will and free election doesn't seem to make a difference, grand scale wise. Both imply the ability to choose. The latter specifies that it takes place within to extremes; either good or bad (vague terms in and of themselves). The choice, however, still exists.

>Judas Iscariot - being one of the only genuine Christians from among Jesus' disciples, beside Mary Magdalene, John, and Thomas - was consciously fulfilling his preassigned task when he betrayed Jesus.
Ok? This doesn't necessarily marry the concepts of prophecy and free will. If "x" has the ability to consciously follow any preassigned task, they also have the ability to consciously rebel against it.

The fact that you think that "Good", and "Evil", are vague terms, betrays your inability to discern between free will, and free election/choice.

Something hilarious just occurred to me. Part of the justification for mass education was to offer to the gifted poor opportunities to use their intelligence to rise in economic class. The actual effect of this over generations is that the poor become stupider and the rich become smarter on average as the intelligent flow up and the dumb down.

I shared a cell for several years with a lifer. He killed someone. He said at the beginning he completely gave up. Had a chip on his shoulder and wanted to kill or hurt as many people as possible. He ended up severely injuring two guards. As he got older he mellowed out and resigned himself to his new life. He never got over the fact that he can never leave, but he makes do with what he has and tries to live as fulfilling life as possible.
Something that really stuck with me was when he told me that he was given a choice: to be angry and hurt the world like he was hurt, going out in violence, or to make do with what he had and live his life.

Just found out the only woman I've ever loved, decided that she's no longer a woman. That she's gender non-binary. Or something like that.

On one hand it took a huge weight off my chest: it was never meant to be, it would've never worked. On the other hand I feel terrible because that came in exchange of feeling pity towards her (or them, whatever).

She looks terrible. Poorly shaved head, overweight, face looking as if she barely sleeps at all. A woman who held firmly and stubbornly onto several beliefs, but they weren't compatible, so she got torn to pieces.

Thanks for sharing your experience with this guy, who I can't imagine being in his position.

I find myself in a similar position internally, thats why that question interested me so much. I'm obviously not saying that it's comparable with an actual life sentence in prison (that would be cynical to say the least), but I do understand your friend on a spiritual level more or less.

It's that I've always struggled with making connections with people/ having friends/ relationships. There is something I don't seem to understand or be able to do to be a social person. It's hard to describe, but I think I can say one thing about it for sure: It's that philosophy/concepts/ethics/morals/logic/words/thoughts/whatever is all in the way (an obstacle) of making connections with people. It's the inability of letting go, accepting the prison and make do with it. I think I just need to give up.

That's the inner prison for me. Thoughts constantly interrupting the natural interactions. That's how it has been for my whole life as an adult/young adult.

i haven't slept yet again, i'm trying to reset my sleep schedule for the second time in a week
i hate being awake at night and sleeping all day, never getting to see the sun, but my sleep schedule always return to these timings, sooner or later, i wonder if it's my natural sleep cycle or something. who knows

besides that, i've been feeling pretty empty staying inside at home lately. i've been NEET for just over 8 months now, well, 2 months proper because i was studying for my medical entrance exam (it was at home though) and it's starting to get to me just now. i've stopped playing games because they're nothing but a time-sink, they only make frittering easier.
i stopped playing games to further my own ends. i don't know if i'll get into med school. i need closure. i wish they would release the results already, but it's going to be 3 more months instead of one because of the god-forsaken pandemic.
so i've been wondering what i should do, ideally
i tie my self worth to my intelligence, and if i fail the medical entrance exam that i'm taking for the second time i might kill myself. i'm really set on doing that. it's messing with my motivation to do anything, because i feel like none of the things i do that are productive are worth it because i'm gonna commit suicide anyway. on the other hand, i don't want to mindlessly succumb to my desires and be in a constant state of hedonism because i feel like i don't deserve that. i don't know what to do exactly.

i'm going to keep reading and lifting, hope i find something or someone that fills the void

Their definitions do not matter. I was simply stating an observation. I had assumed your answer would have (emphasis on would, as you "choose" to do otherwise) fallen in line with what was offered at the conclusion of Job (i.e., fuck off, don't questions God's will).

>betrays your inability to discern between free will, and free election/choice.
Your inability to accurately articulate why free election isn't just some variant of soft determinism betrays your understanding (or lack their of) of the topic. While I agree some of the burden lies on my shoulder, some of it rests on your's as well.

With the industrial proliferation of retard and faggot prostheses and the se of cunt-transmission equipment from retarded childhood onwards, we now fuck fuck fuck see the encoding of increasingly elaborate mental images together with a steady decline in retardation rates and retard. In other words we are looking at the rapid collapse of retarded faggot consolidation. This collapse seems only natural, if one remembers a contrario that seeing, and its spatio-temporal organization, precede fucking and fucking and their fucking fucking, fucking, fucking fuck (as images of our thoughts), our thoughts themselves and cognitive functions, nigger faggot acid retard panda fuck suck it nigger panda cunt faggot pussy.

Unless i'm stuck in this plane and can't comperhend that sort of ever being happiness, I think that would be more of a neutral person. A truly happy person would use the passing dog to help create happiness in themselves. Maybe their thoughts before were negative but they use the dog to pull themselves out of such thoughts. Their face may not stay in a big silly smile but it wont rot and become shrewed but rather diminish to a more natural expression ready to smile again as new more positive thoughts come to them. Even if those negative thoughts return they serve to compliment the happy ones before and to come.
Without sadness there can be no happiness.

Yesterday I heard a sound. A dull thump in the sunroom adjacent to my bedroom. I go to investigate and, alas, a poor mockingbird was trying to fly through a window. Now a window it can't fly through, but god help it, it was trying to. I speak to it. It calms slightly. I walk towards it, it flies into the solid portal from whence it thinks it came. Closer I approach, talking to it, asking it to calm down. As I reach to help it, it goes still. I grasp it with both hands. Coddling it to protect it from itself. It is rock still.

Now if you don't know mockingbirds, they have a bit of an edge, some attitude. I like to think that it knew what I was doing. That it was accepting the help I was so glad to give. Not a peck, not a quiver, just a mockingbird gone calm. I felt close to it, like I do with so many of the critters and plants around my property. I walk it out and release it. No damage done, happy as can be as it stretches its wings and flaps away. I hope it will remember me as I will remember him. Birds are some of God's loveliest creatures. I hope he spreads the word that I am always willing to help should another bird find itself in trouble. The birds have helped me so much over the last year or so. Watching them flit and flutter and feed around my house, it's brought me more joy than I could ever repay them for. I can only hope to help them whenever I can, my only way of reciprocity in this wonderful little piece of the world we've set aside for ourselves.

You don't need to give up.

If you want it bad enough you'll find a way to move beyond your issues even if only by a little bit. It may be painful, it may take years. Hell, at the end of it you might not even change at all.

John's face was always gloomy. When someone asked him a question, he would answer monosyllabically or pretend to be deaf. He'd never look into one's eyes, and his sweaty, limp hand felt like a sponge when he had to extend it to greet a new co-worker. His life was divided between his home and the office. He spent the weekends sitting on the old couch in front of the television, reading the late newspapers and drinking beer.
No one liked John except Martha, who thought he was a true gentleman. Finally, one day, he ended up inviting her to dinner. Marta blushed when she received the invitation, her heart pounding as she couldn't help but let out a shy smile from her lips. She swallowed and agreed day and time.

...


Two hours before the meeting, Marta took a long bath with scented salts and applied a hydrating mask on her face. She brushed her hair for a long time, but in the end decided to make a relaxed bun. She painted her eyes, stretched her lashes and intensified her lips with red lipstick, dressing in a tight skirt and a slightly transparent silk blouse that she had saved for a special occasion.
Inside the cab, on the way to the restaurant, Marta tried to straighten a strand of hair that kept peeling off her bun, running her fingers across the skirt whilst looking intermittently at her makeup mirror as to touch up the lipstick.
Suddenly, a block to the restaurant, a thought crossed her mind. What if John had only invited her to talk about work issues? As she got out of the cab, Marta used a shop window as a makeshift mirror only to ponder whether her skirt was too tight, or her shirt too transparent.

It is not that we have a short space of time, but that we waste much of it. Life is long enough, and it has been given in sufficiently generous measure to allow the accomplishment of the very greatest things if the whole of it is well invested. But when it is squandered in luxury and carelessness, when it is devoted to no good end, forced at last by the ultimate necessity we perceive that it has passed away before we were aware that it was passing. So it is—the life we receive is not short, but we make it so, nor do we have any lack of it, but are wasteful of it. Just as great and princely wealth is scattered in a moment when it comes into the hands of a bad owner, while wealth however limited, if it is entrusted to a good guardian, increases by use, so our life is amply long for him who orders it properly.

It was a Friday when the sky broke open when Mills and Carter found themselves sitting opposite a Best Western in a crappy Datsun.

They sat watching the motel for three hours, not speaking a word. They'd already cleaned their pistols and made sure they fired correctly. Periodically, they'd drink from bottles they'd stashed in the cup holder. Neither gave thought to leaving their position. It was ingrained into them to stay.

At a half past three, the door to one of the motel rooms opened and a woman in a crop top, skirt and heels stumbled out into the rain. She glanced back into the motel room, then wandered away. Mills and Carter watched the motel room.

A minute passed and a man in a dark suit left the room, closing the door behind him. He rushed to a car and slipped inside, hiding from the downpour.

Carter started the car, waited until the man in the suit reversed and left the parking lot, then pulled out onto the highway and followed the man. He kept the Datsun a couple car lengths behind the BMW he was following, trusting the man in the suit was too plastered to notice he was being trailed.

They followed the Beamer to the other side of town, where he stopped outside a set of office buildings. Parking on the other side of the street, Mills and Carter left the car and crossed the road. They took their pistols in hand and entered the office.

The man in the suit stood at the front of the office, arguing with the receptionist.

"What do you mean I can't come in? I'm a fucking partner!" he slurred.

Mills stopped behind the man and asked, "Michael Henderson?"

Michael Henderson spun to face him. "What?"

"Carmine Vitale says hello."

Mills raised the pistol and shot Henderson between the eyes. Pink mist exploded out the back of Henderson's head and he collapsed.

The receptionist screamed. Carter aimed at her and fired. The bullet caught the chest, painting the ivory wall behind her crimson. She staggered back and Carter fired again. Her head jerked back and the wall was painted again. She fell to the ground.

Mills and Carter walked out of the office, crossed the street and entered their car. The ignition caught when Carter turned the key, then started. They peeled away from the sidewalk, speeding past a cop car screaming toward the office.

i related to Mishima like hardly ever before, there are a few authors that capture my exact fascinations.
read the classics, even if the plot is boring or irrelevant they're so good at subtlety and opening new kinds of experience for you, see Chekhov's and Gogol's and Maupassant's short stories for a starter.
if you can, take walks in the calmest crowdless hours, walk away from the city, you'll be amazed at how primal it is just 10 minutes away from the nearest house. watch the sunsets here, and rise early to steal a glimpse of summer sunrises, you can just go back to sleep after looking for a bit.
summertime is the best to get saturated with nature. weave flower crowns like a faggot and leave them on tree branches or bushes. you can alternate between calm fitting music and listening to the birds.
when you capture the essense of natural beauty, you'll start seeing its shadows and references in anything.

I don't know if I am going insane, but I am currently under the belief that both the behavioral aspects of conscious individuals, as well as the internal dispositions generally attributed to consciousness itself, are not wholly related to the physical world; that is, while the brain is linked to the activities of material bodies and experience, the components of human minds that is defined as "consciousness" is but one of multiple ends that can be replicated and reproduced throughout the universe, each of which are altered through entirely physical properties and causes, but never quite originating in a physical origin. Although I am unsure of what this original, non-physical cause is, I am confident that what Freeman Dyson called "the mental apparatus of the universe" (what we only consider as God), has something to do with this theory. I am perturbed.

Let me give you some advice: MAN THE FUCK UP YOU FAGGOT.
If living in a rural town is really your dream (I can definetly relate to this), the go on and do something about it.

I don't have a problem meeting women and interacting with women, I have a problem with getting them to do anything with me more than once. From the beginning of the year to when Corona-chan started getting everything locked down, I had numerous meaningful interactions with women. I had meaningful evenings with multiple women that I met while I was out and about. I even got a brunch date with one. But they don't seem to want anything to do with me after our initial contacts. When I text them after they've given me their numbers, they don't reply. I get completely forgotten about. It's very frustrating because I don't have a gf but it's absolutely not for lack of trying. And it's not because I'm repulsive, because I am, at least, good-looking and charismatic enough to reel women in for an initial encounter. I just can't keep them coming back, and I'm not quite sure why.

it's getting harder to speak everyday. just now i lay on my bedroom floor thinking about the sparse moments i actually felt some enjoyment out of life.

there's nothing wrong with me. i'm young, i'm thin, i have money, etc. but there's something missing. being alive, though sedentary, is getting aggravating. nothing would satisfy me more than having the ability to look inside my mind and draw a logical conclusion. prodding around in my head like that does me no good though.

Sex sells, as does violence. You find them both in the earliest recorded stories. The story of Gilgamesh begins with a prostitute and a fist fight, the mythology of Osiris involves murder, dismemberment, and necrophilia. Rape combines the two.

I think Camus was wrong about Sisyphus. You shouldn't imagine that Sisyphus is happy with his sentence instead you should imagine that Sisyphus holds on to the possibility of one day being free. He should always hold on to that because perhaps the truth is there is no such thing as an eternity of imprisonment.

Yesterday I got off work, and after a long day I went to watch the sun set on the water, because that's when the fish take their dinner, popping out of the glassy surface to eat the bugs drifting down from above. The water is black in its reflection of the trees, but when the fish jump they make little golden explosions, and it's beautiful. It's a violent act, a necessary act, a simple transfer of energy from one life to another, but the unremarkable beauty of it brings me joy. It helps me sleep at night knowing that in all this chaos, a little function of the world still works just fine. I love the bugs, I love the fish, and I love the reflection of the trees. I love the lake and everything it speaks. I treasure it's mundane reassurances.

I have no clue whether this is the cause of your current problems, although if it's happened before, then it really could happen again. But in general, removing the boundary between your internet life and your real one is a stunningly idiotic practice that's become scarily normalized. It's not your fault -- it's the culture we live in and the parents that stopped telling their kids to never put their personal info online. Any public-facing social media of yours should contain solely the most unbearable normalfaggotry. Save any edgy or even unorthodox opinions and hobbies (defined as anything at least as weird as watching anime) for pseudonymous and anonymous communities if you're gonna post about them online.

I have no real desire to take either drug again - it's been about eight weeks since I last indulged - but I would kinda like to write a short story from the perspective of a middle-class person getting slowly introduced to this world.

Right now, my girlfriend and I are self-isolating ourselves in our small University town where all our other friends have left. I still have my own flat a 5 minute walk away, but I 'm living at her place right now. We've been having a shit ton of arguments recently, so I proposed to her yesterday the idea that I'd move back to mine and we'd visit each other during the day instead of our current arrangement, so we get some alone time that we haven't gotten. She completely unleashed at me, saying how dare I even ask such a thing. I spoke about it at length, and I told her all I wanted was for her to discuss the idea of it, not necesarily entertain it, and if she was reluctant to do so we should break up.

probably for the best, if such shit like you described happens earlier on it's best to cut it off before it turns into something more nastier

I cant get it into my head how someone expects to have a normal discussion when ive tried to explain i really dont like this at all so many times. Its fkn creepy as hell and i feel like shit. How is this gonna go in the future then? How can i ever trust anything someone says on here or in some other place? Just put everything else aside for a moment and think about how i would feel right now, how can you still just make up some story that vaguely resembles your side of the argument. Im just mad that no one seems to acknowledge that this is a pretty fucked up situation and that its gonna take a while for me to regain my trust in people.

And now i have to get back to whatever i was doing and trust that nothing will be used against me later on? Another sarcastic remark showing that what i feared was true would be appreciated as well. Maybe along with a dfw picture why not

Dont worry dude just put on some music, not on youtube though otherwise youll see either the live chill beats to relax and study to or the andy weatherall mix video. Dont talk to your sister in front of your pc either otherwise youll see the carrie and lowell thing again and thatll ruin the rest of your day. Dont play cs either otherwise lil prostate will come to spec you and in battlegrounds theres gonna be a bunch of usernames youve either seen before or seem to relate to this thing youve got in your head. But its ok, you can trust everything they say
