I used to keep visual diaries. I had one on me at all times, and I filled about three of them. Then I stopped leaving the house. Since then, there's no point. I keep a dream diary, but then I stopped, and then I got mad that I stopped so I don't keep that, either. What I do, do is that sometimes I scribble some stray thought, and I'll gather those together. I also have a big leather journal I got as a present, and I just keep a bunch of things like ticket stubs, and pictures I like. It's like a book version of keeping a bunch of childhood trinkets in a box.

I used to think that the fact that my life was saved by getting affirmation that I meant the very least possible thing to her was cute, maybe romantic. "Saved by love". I think I realize now that it is a truly horrifying story. Why did it need affirming? I used to think it was proof of her goodness. Is it not clear evidence against anything like that? Well, maybe it's complicated. But it is horrifying. No doubt about that. Because almost certainly the only reason she showed that "love" was that she needed the same from me.

on the other hand, if her problems were really as big as she made them out to be, and she is not religious (and I'm pretty sure she isn't) she should be dead by now. Or an addict. She could be addict I guess, but she's not dead. It's possible she made noise disproportionately, or we're just different. But if our internal standards are at all similar, she should be dead if her need was truly that great.

None, I was seeing someone December of last year but after we had sex, I didn’t feel anything as we held each other. I couldn’t have a relationship with someone I don’t love, since then I’ve been mostly isolated in my house in a small village, and I’ve been so apathetic about meeting new people so I haven’t met anyone else. Summer of last year I had a brief relationship with a woman who was a decade older than me and I fell more deeply in love with her than I have anyone before but due to differences in life circumstance and familial disapproval it had to end, and I feel disillusioned about relationships, that in order to be satisfied I need to truly love the other person, that it’s almost pointless to pursue romantic relationships that won’t satisfy me

You guys, the other day while rereading Finnegans Wake, I was ruminating over the lines...
"Or be these wingsets leaned to the outwalls, beastskin trophies of booth of Baws the balsamboards?"
... when I decided to get up, and turn on my speakers to Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart. In a dreamy synchronicity, my gaze turned to my print of Picasso's Dora Maar au Chat (pic related). That's when it happened -- suddenly the transcendent, the sublime, the eternal essence of being appeared before me in a cloudburst, and I could feel the turning of the world in all its ages with indescribable ecstasy -- in a brief moment, it was over, and I was left with only a memory's shadow. It changed me, this playful phantom, this eternal secret. It made me a spiritual being and a fuller man. And I owe it all to Pablo Picasso's divine masterwork, Dora Maar au Chat.

Its tough to say. My immediate reaction is to say yes. But I want to doubt myself. Sometimes I do have social outings and it would seem as if that angst were alleviated. However, soon after the outing ends the feeling returns. And often it returns even more strongly. I wonder if that general sense of dissatisfaction is merely masked over.
I brought this up with a church friend of mine. The answer I receieved is of course what you'd expect from a church goer. The world is passing and therefore will never be fulfilling. We must turn away from those impulses and focus instead on God.
I tried this for a while and for a while it seemed to work. But the novelty faded and the satisfaction did too. I attend church meetings, youth groups, fellowships, etc and I just dont get anything out of it anymore. The time that I thought I was fulfilled now seems like a void in memory.
I guess I dont know what I want. Its easy to say if I had this or if I just had that I could be happy. And I tried that. I own ten guns. I have stacks and stacks of books. I even read a lot of them. I collected movies and became a kinosseur. I've explored every hiking trail in my area. I still feel wasted.

You can't achieve satisfaction in this world. (or maybe you can, for some time, but that's not what matters) Just search for and do the Good, even if you can't understand what that is, just try to and do what appears to be Good and which is born of the Good - for example, wisdom appears to be good, so studying arduously might be deemed a sensible guess at the Good - exhausting your possibilities as regards it, and ignoring everything that does not tend to the Good, for the Good fully supercedes all those other things. And if it is that the Good does not actually exist, that would mean there is no true difference between doing or not doing that which appears to be Good, therefore not doing it would be pure cope, since there exists the possibility of it.
This, at least, is what I'm thinking right now, for myself.

[Anonymous No.20149365]

Picasso had talent as a painter. Maybe he wasn't the very best, but he had skill.

Then, halfway through his career, he made a groundbreaking realization: namely, that people don't know what the fuck they're looking at, and you can get away with almost anything once you're an established artist.

The Beatles experimented with phenomenon this in their song The Walrus. The lyrics were pure nonsense, just a random mish mash of words, with the intent of mocking art school students and music critics and to see what idiotic bloated interpretations they would come up with.

People never want to be out of the loop. They never want to feel like there's something present that they don't understand, so they tend to make up patterns even when none are present, like a pareidolia of meaning. The true genius of Picasso is that he understood this, and he produced absolute shit, garbage, low effort works in manipulation of this retarded human tendency. He was the ultimate artistic shitposter, better than Captain Beefheart, better than The Beatles. He made a mockery of pretentious art faggots and to this day people defend his hideous finger paintings as if they have merit. Pablo Picasso, I applaud you. Bravo.

For the past few years I've had the idea of focusing my reading on a specific author, era, or region but I get a few books in and then get sidetracked by something else.

But I think some level of effort should be necessary. Who 'in their right mind' wouldn't think so? If Kurt Cobain came out on stage in his boxers and a stained wife beater, grimaced and mumbled some introduction into the mic and then proceeded to play out of time and out of tune, stopped halfway through the set and walked around aimlessly grumbling to himself and farting, I think most people would say, "Wow, he really didn't put any effort in. That was a bad concert," and only the most pretentious fagots would say "Wow, what a groundbreaking statement about petite bourgeoisie ostentation. That was a great concert." You seem to be of the latter sort.

I relate to this and have also contemplated suicide, particularly following embarrassing mistakes which I deemed important, though they were much more easily "correctable" than I could realize at that time.
Reason would dictate, so it seems to me, that rather than kill yourself prematurely you should do the absolute best you can from now on and do everything in your power to correct the mistake. If the mistake is of a nature that regards your reputation among men, you should know that the very great majority of men are simple fools that can be persuaded to believe anything; you could convince them, for example, that you did what you did intentionally, and with certain great and impressive and noble personal intentions that they could not understand at the time and perhaps still cannot understand, more broadly to speak that people's observation of events at that time was partial and that either the occurrence of aforementioned events was determined by certain unimportant or even positive factors or that (in the same manner as I write above) it was actually good, though only you could understand so at the time, because you are wiser; for such things, of course, you will need great accomplishments, as well as great intelligence and character and finely-developed ability and carefully thought-out plans and proper effort. But it is certainly possible, and that means you can do it.

Origami is art. And I stand by my previous statement about requiring some standard of skill and effort for art to be considered good. Since art is subjective, you're welcome to disagree, but I will make fun of you for it.

As for your quote, he's making a false equivalency. Visual art is not a language and it can be understood by anyone, like music.

I know, you can get them through kissing or sharing a glass. But you *can* get them through sexual contact.

I understand why G-d reached down, and made us water before the land
Unbroken mikveh, shimmering in the dim warm light of young creation
When I fall in I close my eyes and surrender all the air inside my lungs, I feel a calm acceptance in my sinking
The sea will gently help you reach the ground, like a parent tucking their child into bed
When I reach the bottom I imagine myself there on that second day, and how he must have felt
That ancient gratitude for water, all of it lives on in me

i suspected you'd be one of these types. of course if you have no real judgment, no ability to see a work of art as it really is, you spend your time groping for guidelines like effort & time & skill - which is far easier to decide than whether the thing is any good or not.

Do you believe yourself infallible? Or does some god protect you from doing anything bad and unwise? If either of these hypotheses are true, there can be no doubt you did everything perfectly. But I don't think you actually believe this, do you? You accept, it is logical, that you are fallible. Well then, do you think it befits a wise man to lament that which is necessary? that is, the unachievability of his true end, and imperfection. Rather, is it not so that he should restlessly strive towards the direction of that end, to go as far as necessity allows, surpassing all toil and pleasure? For in fact, there is no reason to lament a mistake unless you are doing it in the present - there is nothing to decry otherwise - and that is emmendable, by doing the aforestated, that is, doing the best while striving towards the infinite.
We must guard ourselves from maladaptive true perfectionism, and from certain forms of hesitation, so does wiseness warn.

I do currently keep a physicals diary, and used to keep another physical diary some years ago, although I destroyed that one, which is ironic because the reason I opt to keep a physical diary is that its harder to get rid of. I can't just "delete" all of it when I cringe at what's inside.
Most of what I write are just internal soliloquies and shitty pseudointellectual takes. Occasionally there will be the metaphor-riddled short story that holds meaning to how I feel. Some of my long-term goals are kept inside it as well. I'm not entirely sure why I keep a diary other than I have some strange feeling that I might want to look back on some of the ideas written down in it someday. Maybe I can turn some of the things in my diary into a good novel.

>but consciousness is an illusion
An illusion requires an observer

Freewill is related to the mystery of consciousness, and it might take place on a level unexplainable in physical terms.

>Looked at this way, Gödel's proof suggests – though by no means does it prove! – that there could be some high-level way of viewing the mind/brain, involving concepts which do not appear on lower levels, and that this level might have explanatory power that does not exist – not even in principle – on lower levels. It would mean that some facts could be explained on the high level quite easily, but not on lower levels at all. No matter how long and cumbersome a low-level statement were made, it would not explain the phenomena in question. It is analogous to the fact that, if you make derivation after derivation in Peano arithmetic, no matter how long and cumbersome you make them, you will never come up with one for G – despite the fact that on a higher level, you can see that the Gödel sentence is true. What might such high-level concepts be? It has been proposed for eons, by various holistically or "soulistically" inclined scientists and humanists that consciousness is a phenomenon that escapes explanation in terms of brain components; so here is a candidate at least. There is also the ever-puzzling notion of free will. So perhaps these qualities could be "emergent" in the sense of requiring explanations which cannot be furnished by the physiology alone (Gödel, Escher, Bach, p. 708)

But you are not answering my question, anon. I asked you whether it is possible that the mistake is not in a state of having been made but in a state of not having been made. Is that the case or is it that, on the contrary, it has necessarily been made and it cannot not have been made, belonging to the category of things that can only be one way, rather than that of things which may be one way or another?

Maybe it's because I read it in high school during the course of 4 weeks and the storyline is ingrained in my memory.

Had to let go of a woman I've loved for a long time today. She's the only girl I've ever loved. We've been together for years, but she was becoming someone that I couldn't be with. Depressed, selfish, generally apathetic and boring. It was one of the toughest decisions I've ever been forced to make. Just to let go of someone who I've cared for more than anyone else for years, because I knew it was the right thing for myself and eventually for her also.

First loves are difficult, I knew ours would at some point end once I realized that she was falling into a different mindset that wasn't who I fell in love with. It hurts that people change, often for the worse. Usually only to stagnate and find something to prop them up indefinitely until they die first spiritually and then again physically later.

I think what I hate most is that I believed I could 'save her' (lol). The only person you can change is yourself. I've improved immensely as a man over the last few years (published author, lifting, good job/money) but the thing I care most about was solidifying our relationship so I could give her half of the world I'm creating.

So my dad just got a brain hemorrhage, best case scenario he survives but is paralyzed on his left side. Worst case he becomes a vegetables or he dies. It might sound terrible but i would honestly prefer that he dies instead of becoming a husk of a man. Not sure I could bear to see him like that.
Doctors are confused as to what caused it, my dad is still somewhat young for this (57 years old), and was in pretty good health.

Told myself at the beginning of 2022 that it would be my year after having a pretty shitty 2021; I guess life had other plans. Tired of unexpected bad luck, can I get an unexpected good news for once?

May good news come your way anon, my dad had a serious problem too but he recovered from it.

Thanks for the wishes, I'm hoping for a miracle recovery but it's not looking good. He lost a lot of blood, so much so they couldn't tell what he actually had in the scan. Next 48 hours is critical.

Seeing him like this was rough and it will haunt me for a while. I had to comfort my mom too throughout all of this. Still, I'm glad I could see him and talk to him when he was still conscious; my older brother couldn't by the time he got there he was put to sleep for surgery.

Hope he pulls through, my dad was fortunate in that he was misdiagnosed and the problem he had was rather severe but a lot better than the initial findings.

Every small blessing counts in such a case. Once more I hope it goes as well as it can.

Pink/red snow caused by algae. Aristotle thought it was from hairy worms in old snow.
>worms are found in long-lying snow; and snow of this description gets reddish in colour, and the grub that is engendered in it is red, as might have been expected, and it is also hairy.

It is pretty cool Aristotle tried to understand everything, even if it was ultimately out of his grasp. I wonder what an Aristotle placed in the modern world would do, whether he'd go nuts trying to learn everything, specialize, or simply burn out and give it up

yes exactly. fear is physical. people think that fear is mental, but it's physical. which is lucky, because the mind can control the body but not itself. to defeat fear you have to go into your chest...

approaching 7 months of mostly isolation (maybe one conversation every 2 weeks) I think the solipsism may be getting a bit too real. I somewhat think I should continue though. I'm diving deep. I need to know why I'm so angry for instance. I've needed to know a lot of things and isolation has helped a lot. I have no idea how this is supposed to end but I have a lot of time. I may be getting somewhat covetous of God, that I think I'm special in relation to Him, closer to Him than other people are. That seems pretty dangerous desu senpai. I do not want to stop.

My parents lived in a standard ranch style house, in a middle-class neighborhood, in a small town in northern Alberta. I was sitting in the darkened basement of this house, in the family room, watching TV, with my cousin Diane, who was in truth – in waking life – the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. A newscaster suddenly interrupted the program. The television picture and sound distorted, and static filled the screen. My cousin stood up and went behind the TV to check the electrical cord. She touched it, and started convulsing and frothing at the mouth, frozen upright by intense current.

A brilliant flash of light from a small window flooded the basement. I rushed upstairs. There was nothing left of the ground floor of the house. It had been completely and cleanly sheared away, leaving only the floor, which now served the basement as a roof. Red and orange flames filled the sky, from horizon to horizon. Nothing was left as far as I could see, except skeletal black ruins sticking up here and there: no houses, no trees, no signs of other human beings or of any life whatsoever. The entire town and everything that surrounded it on the flat prairie had been completely obliterated.

It started to rain mud, heavily. The mud blotted out everything, and left the earth brown, wet, flat and dull, and the sky leaden, even grey. A few distraught and shell-shocked people started to gather together. They were carrying unlabelled and dented cans of food, which contained nothing but mush and vegetables. They stood in the mud looking exhausted and disheveled. Some dogs emerged, out from under the basement stairs, where they had inexplicably taken residence. They were standing upright, on their hind legs. They were thin, like greyhounds, and had pointed noses. They looked like creatures of ritual – like Anubis, from the Egyptian tombs. They were carrying plates in front of them, which contained pieces of seared meat. They wanted to trade the meat for the cans. I took a plate. In the center of it was a circular slab of flesh four inches in diameter and one inch thick, foully cooked, oily, with a marrow bone in the center of it. Where did it come from?

I had a terrible thought. I rushed downstairs to my cousin. The dogs had butchered her, and were offering the meat to the survivors of the disaster. I woke up with my heart pounding.

I had another desert dream.

Hundreds of people were pouring into the desert in files. People abandoned their cars, left the doors open in their houses. From a hill I could see there was a long, long path that went far into the desert, and then spiraled toward some center point which I could not see. There was many dead end paths that splintered off. People complained that they thought they would run out of water, and turned around. Rumors spread that there were lions in the brush. Rumors spread of all sorts of fantastical objects that lay hidden in the off-paths.

We got closer and closer to this huge mountain spire. There were many entryways to get inside the mountain; a ladder, a rope-bridge, etc. This is where many groups got lost. Inside the spire mountain was a spa and a library. There I found many old books which I had forgotten about. Many people were making lines to spend all their money on maps and odd tools.

When we got out of the mountain, we saw it was dark, and many decided to either return to the mountain, or head home. Someone came by with a car and was charging money to pile people in and take them back to their houses. Unfortunately that's all I remember about this part of the dream.
