There are certain kinds of people who can only have fake friends. It's not because they're fake, but because they're not open. Real friendships can only happen between two people who are open, which is rare.
>>25061411My best friends are the ones I did crimes with.
>>25061354My walmart mechanical keyboard died. Now I am stuck using this damned shitty squisy wireless keyboard I had laying around until I get a replacement. I need my full key travel. I miss my clickkity clack of blue switches.
>>25061448Wait, I banged on it for a bit and now it works. I probably should still get a replacement just in case it dies for good. Some of the keys aren't properly responsive anyway.

It's odd to meet someone with family connections to important people, or people who were once important. I suppose that such people have to go somewhere, and why not within my vicinity?
>>25061527Thank you. I like it.
>>25061547My most famous relative is a former POTUS.
>>25061547What'd you think all that talk about getting into elite schools, elite frats, elite secret societies, elite firms, and elite social clubs was all about?
It's so fucking lame. Billions of dollars. Secret cabals. And they're just shitposting retards. Not interesting. Not special. Just retarded, doing the same things I'm doing, despite tropical islands, espionage, connections, fancy fucking cigars and cars and the capacity to do anything.It's so bleak. No one is special, just lucky.
4chan is pretty much the only place I feel like I can post openly. even on twitter, being tied to a user name, makes me feel way more attached to what I'm posting. Makes it impossible to post frequently, and I usually delete what I do post. not saying it's all worthwhile to post or read but it's supposed to be self expression, and i seem incapable of it anywhere but here
Femanons, do you prefer guys with short hair or long hair? Straight hair or curly hair?

I went on a trip for 10 days and managed to read 430 pages.
>>25061658All of these options can look good or bad; it really depends on what suits the person and their unique facial features, hair texture, and hairline. Having a flattering haircut and keeping it neat/styled is what matters. But I will say that very long hair on men (as in more than a few inches past the shoulders) is something I don’t personally find attractive.
>>25061688ok thank you
Would you have gone to bed with me I didn't do your book?
>>25061719No, that's a dealbreaker.
"title: "all silent animals" ""would you consider a butterfly silent?" "yes." "but it's not an animal anyway." "why would the choice matter?" "it can't be loud enough and it doesn't live long either." "there'd be no feedback short of death either, it'd not make the sense you'd heard it." "maybe. maybe everyone but you and I are immortals." "ha. that's one way to see it. there'd be no way they'd be serious." "no one with limited time on this earth would live such predictable lives through.One occasion or another had him relate the limits of language would be hunger and a gun since no one hungry would read and no one with one would have to. That the highest exchange to those on an own end had been the fact the english language would have no words for darknesses of tactile inputs would take long to be figured out how it had happened or forgotten would also not be a surprise. Come to think of it it'd probably remain a cool fact. The difference between long enough tactile darkness and tactile blindness."Consecutivity had become a problem to medusas long before then. There'd not been thought to what would be done once the argument on genesis being about information brokerage were used beyond to either get something out of how he'd not left the interlocution or to use the counting argument for multiple presents though "it'd be a rehash of the plane distance to plane direction which'd rehash one on possible futures" and only count because he'd not used it per se. At that rate he'd have to go to open sense data fast."whether it would have been of use to have gone through the wake up problem again would be attempted. The machine behind the eyes was still there. But he'd know that." By that time it'd occurred the objects of what had been designated sense data by the brain had probably had the lowest opportunity cost of any other's in some radius for at least five minutes. That letters and paper wouldn't have backgrounds or blank spaces how paintings would would probably have had something to do with how the brain would predict where the retina would point at before it were or had moved. A biology made known by what had been an acquaintance. First man had made gods then weapons then put them in kitchens. It had been so with fire and the sky and life and it would have been so with death. darknesses though could forever have remained beyond neurons and atp and how to have had skies would have made ways to kitchens would have taken absences of atmospheric gases to have been seen or maybe perspectives which would not have been lesser ends to vanity. "[...] and for seconds those infinite darknesses had had all brains and it had occurred to have had the dark for a head."maybe one of the less noticed though more obvious traits of predators would be not to be able to sleep on occasion prey would sleep.
>>25061728Pretty good, though I'd suggest making it slightly less obscure.
I'm strongly considering throwing away 7 years of sobriety, getting drunk and then kicking the shit out of my brother. He needs to be taught a lesson.

I can’t believe I legitimately thought my porn preferences/history (NTS/swinging/cuckolding) would be a problem if I ran for political office someday if they came to light. Turns out basically every powerful person in America was doing FAR worse stuff
>>25061354I don't know if anyone here can relate but there's probably someoneI developed this horrible habit of using being busy at work as an excuse to get out of socializing. It's true, I'm always busy at work but realistically I could make time to go out with my friends on the weekend if I really wanted to, but the whole week I slave away and look forward to doing nothing on the weekend, the weekend arrives, and my friends invite me out, I say no because I'm tired I just wanna play vidya or watch movies, but then I don't even get any enjoyment out of doing nothing, I wish I went out instead. Then the cycle repeats every week. I sit somewhere in between justifiably being too busy and being a lazy piece of shit, but the line is blurred. I do it to myself and there's no one to blame, is this really all there is for a good goy like me?

I think people who jerk off to incest that involves siblings/step-sibling are only childs.
>>25061846Yup, 100%. Not an only child but I only have a brother. Never been attracted to my female relatives either. But for some reason the thought of someone being attracted to his mom or his sister is really exciting. I don't really understand the mechanism. I'm obviously putting myself in the place of the guy, but putting a female relative in the other spot doesn't work.

>>25061382hey man, just chimin in to tell you that the soundtrack for the sicilian clan is atleast as shitty as the movie. No hate against morricone, but that movie just wasnt it. That fucking jews harp every 10 seconds really diminished it. And the story was pretty bad too

I left the house today. Things are getting seriously dark out there. The people seem to be devolving. As if they're slowly but surely returning to a state of high-entropy primordial soup.
>>25062116makes sense. maybe my standarts were to high because i watched rocco and his brothers and four in a red circle few days before. Wanted to watch all the french/italian movies. All the marcello maestriani and delon stuff. But jesus there were some dissappointments, viscontis white nights for example, fuck this piece of shit movie, how could he have play that in winter, that fucking prick. But his other movies are good. But havent seen Any number can win yet, can you recommend it in good faith? And my local cinema is showing the lepard, havent seen this on too, i am very stoked
>>25062482>White nights bad>But The Damned is fineLol bro you have worse brain damage than me, wtf? nta btw
>>25062493nah it came out wrong, white nights is technically good, and my hate is extremely subjective, but how can you take a book that plays over midsummer with super long days and warm temperatures and think, great im gonna have it play in the deepest darkest winter because there is white in the title. Fuck him 1000 times, the bresson version is million times better
>>25062503>The Damned still fineNah bro that's brain damage, get checked out
>>25061354I just rolled five sixes in a row after hours of rolling dice and I have no one to tell except this thread.
>>25062504for your information, yes the damned is shit, yes i had it checked out but stopped going to the doctor because they wanted to peddle their drugs on me, BUT STILL white nights disappointed me way more, because i liked the dosrtoevsky.-influence on rocco and his brothers and was positively surprised to discover that he actually adapted a work of dostoevsky. Very sad what came out. I like marcello as an actor, i like visconti as a director but that movie left me shaking with rage, didnt even finish it
>>25062519>but he finished The DamnedKek lol bro

wow this one anon is getting some mileage out of trolling that ESL poster
I made the decision after looking at the temperature outside, seeing just how cold it was, thinking just how miserable the trek to get food would be and looking at the last $80 I'll ever have and realizing how little I can do with that. I cant get an Uber or Lyft with cash. so I can't travel anywhere. I can only spend that cash, those 4 $20 bills I somehow earned or was gifted, in the very few businesses that exist within walking distance, but what then. What after that? I'm dead inside. There isn't a person in there anymore not one I enjoy being. I was talented intelligent smart and opened minded. Now whatever it is I've done to myself and had done to me has severely impacted my capacity for reason, memory and cognition. Its sad. It is really truly sad. How is it that I could literally spend 6 hours running. Around Walmart I got into and opened the doors for 4 or 5 cars that I had no business being in. Like why Didn't anybody stop me or arrest me or at least shoot me for fuck sakes. And the next day, when still fully indulging in my delusional beliefs, I managed to hitch a ride an hour away up a mountain. Because I was certain, I thought, I might find some refuge there or a sign of hope. An indication that the pain I suffered the last months was endured for a reason or at least had a cause which could be readily named and that by some schemers instruction I could aid in that evils annihilation. But instead I was stranded trying to piece together a puzzle I had entirely imagined from clues I confabulated and memories I misinterpreted. Eventually, it came to me just how stranded I was, how delusional I had been. I started to try and cry but I was so dehydrated I couldn't bring forth any tears. I became afraid deeply afraid... I couldn't call for help, I couldn't pay for a way out. I had only to rely upon the kindness of strangers to take me down this mountain, the same kindness that brought my deluded self up it. ...
>>25062550How cruel and uncaring the world had been. I'd lost at this point everything. Even my sanity now was so far departed that I was most certainly a danger to myself. But somehow I look back at the world and when I think of the kindnesses, the little tiny kindnesses that Ive been granted here or there, I think of strangers or those I abandoned. People who had no business at all being kind, all the reason to be suspicious or resentful, or just plain uncaring and ambivalent. Yet for some reason there ignorance of my condition lent them the facility for kindness which those familiar with my incapacity for sound judgement found much harder to grant. I could say that the world is bad or evil or unjust but I doubt it is. Though I could blame it for my undoing, instead I'll just say it was "my terrible luck", and it was just that mine. Not the world's, just mine. The world will be fine without me, and I'm certain much good will continue to be done to strangers by strangers for the good of just doing good. Maybe I helped out here or there for a while before I became like this. I'd like to think my life had meaning in some way and wasn't just some tumultuous arduous long trip down insanity lane leading here to my suicide. But things are how they are, and maybe my life was just meant to be that; a cautious tale others will tell. Well the sun is rising. I hope you all don't miss me to much. I don't think there really was much to miss of me at the end. So good bye. I love you all. Freya Cary

I think I just decided today to write cursively from now on.I usually write in block letters but I just tested it out and I love the cursive look.Big day today
I think anomic is how I feel. There is no intellectual thought, no community. Social media has killed everything in the world. Ignorance is valued more than knowledge, because the latter is elitist. You can't be right about anything, because everything is subjective anyway. No words can reach anyone, because endless entertainment and self-gratification have swallowed entire generations. Brains into mush. Desires commodified. Nothing left inside.Absolutely everything in the world has gone to shit in a couple decades and there is no hope before hundreds of years of utter decline, and even to vent my resentment takes this awful Captcha, now. Fuck me.
>>25062693>Desires commodified.Expand on that.

A real skater wears Vans! You're a rough hooligan? Lonsdale is what you wear>NostalgiaDo I even need to say it? Look at how the 80's and now 90's gets sold back to you. We're getting to the point where the remakes and shows about the 80's are more real in the minds of people than what the 80's actually were. And it makes sense if you never lived in the 80's/90's. You know the decade how Netflix or Warner Brothers says it was.

>>25062699What do we do that benefit ourselves or our communities (if they exist)? Do we gain the love of our neighbors or self-actualization from earnest pursuit of excellence? We buy and consume to escape the nagging feeling that something is terribly wrong. Gaming and masturbation, distractions upon distractions. With social media, audiences play author and every impulse is considered first as a potential product. To do something in solitude is unthinkable, but to do it in public, what can it be but acceptable and shallow? Pat yourself on the back—you're perfect just the way you are: completely individual.Can I really dedicate myself to something, in earnest, fully, without the nagging feeling that all that is not sold is meaningless? Really, commodification wasn't my main gripe here. I just wish there was a widespread notion of humble curiosity and desire for self-transcendence. Transcendence beyond profit. There is a great anti-intellectualism eating at the world, and seemingly no way to escape it. Increasingly less so as the internet keeps changing.

Has a flow to it compared to the choppy block style writing.I was never great at it but if I just keep doing it it'll work.I like tweaking my writing. Years ago I changed how I wrote my F and T. This seems like a logical next step
>>25062736I feel you anon. I feel like we're at the end of a civilizational cycle too, certainly one of the worst times to find worthy communities. The rich's circles seem boring too, hard to aspire to ascend with that in mind. Maybe the good aristocratic, proud, healthy families just like to live in obscurity, but still, I doubt that, we could find them writing, or funding good art at least, so I must assume they don't exist. I wonder how people lived during the slow decline of the roman empire, maybe the best life for us consists in detached observations, sowing some intellectual seeds for a next era, and giving up on actualizing dreams of grand things, as for now everything is so controlled by laws and social norms.The wealth make our times tolerable, still, hard to not want more. I see my parent's archetype everywhere: work and tasks all day, everyday, business in the most literal sense, and then I was born and they really taught me no worthy lesson, and I feel that's how everyone is, so busy but utterly aimless, and with no aim, no question, and with no questions, no insights.
>>25062793What feels the worst is that nearly every idea of excellence is almost instinctively denied by others through intersectionality. You can't be smart, because that's elitist, and possibly racist. Hermeneutics is devalued as any feel-good glance is just as good. Instagram poetry alongside Shakespeare, two and two make five, self-deprecation is a default mode of expression. Do not know; only defer to the weakest of us, who are the strongest by the virtue of their oppression.How is one to feel like there's anything in the world worth preserving when the people are so intent on destroying it all? Can you teach someone when they just tell you, "why bother? I can just ask chatGPT if I forget." People have forgotten that they can even be wrong, because they no longer believe truth exists. All their beliefs are objective realities to them, and strangely enough, with truth being such a vague entity. Matter of opinion, must be.It's like everyone can learn all there is in the world, but we're all so alienated that it doesn't even register that this knowledge could be shared with others. I can only hope that something happens to the internet, and soon.

Female to Male trans is intriguing. Why would you ever cast off your beautiful femininity to be a rugged and half baked man. Male to female I understand, the other one just depresses me when I see it
>>25062929Twinks with vaginas are hot
>>25062929>Male to female I understandI can't understand it. Even assuming a man who troons out can pass as a woman, the troonsition will be complete around the late teens at the earliest. If you chop that dick really fast you end up with a 18-20 year old tranny. Assuming that will look like a pretty girl, it's gonna look like fucking shit in like 5 years. All this damage, all this effort, the axe wound smelling like shit, chopping off your dick to be a pretty girl (hypothetically), for the 5 years before a woman hits the wall? Then you hit the wall at light speed and you're back to looking like a horrible creepy man in a drag. At least FTMs just look like gay men. And this is still in the realm of fantasy, because trannies simply look like shit and then look worse and worse as they age. Even unicorns like that French tranny age like milk

How am I supposed to become a cultured person and nourish my spiritual and intellectual capacities when I have to waste the majority of my life wagecucking? It's such a dystopia we live in where you're forced to piss your life away and count every second of freedom you have. Like right now it's after midnight and I need to sleep for work tomorrow but I refuse because this time free of obligations is so precious to me. At least with universal, painless assisted suicide we could make a free decision as to whether we want to persist in this decrepit condition, and the existence of an alternative, and the knowledge that we can choose it at any point, might relieve us of burdens in some way, and perhaps shift them onto the backs of the powerful, who will be fearful of losing their labour by our free choice no longer to participate in the world.

I wanted to think about what I want. Tried to incorporate every important matter and tie it to the one end of humans I see: feeling unique. Feeling unique is close to freedom, but I see that once free, a man only chooses to spend time outpouring his individuality, it is because only the achievement of that can truly attest of one's freedom.This isn't really a poem, I did not put a single willing effort into rhythm, the constraint of rhymes is already making me write so slowly, but I find rhymes help make some statements more memorable. [ What do I Want ? ]A kingdom of my own,A secret place to stare at beauty, Find I, self-conscious and free; A life as art, as my sole creator and enjoyer,Cultivating symmetry and proportionAcross the depths of my journeys layers,Sucking up all eternity into my motion —What do I want? Let’s think —Without a dream, how can I advance?Sacred are my sentiments, unquestionable is my will,They are mine and securing them is my chance,Nothing greater than this one unique adventure, I feel. And then why do I seek to depart, To a grand adventure and make myself alone;What’s there I seek in the stars that’s not at home? Maybe I sense the threat of what’s small, of a society’s redundancy,Or my habits’ ability, to turn my eyes away from joyous me.The secret test is this :Many around seek to destroy, but I seek to create,To have one great good thing done, and be at rest,That I stood up, and enjoyed me at my best.If I have taste and strength, I have faith for a fate, Where I can reconcile emotion and reason, Promote myself— in lieu of excess or treason,And as I face harmony, finally fill my mind’s immensity, With abundant moments of unforgettable reality.In there I seek separation, because one man’s good thing,Is to gather what is his, cradle his heart and unhide it, scream it to existence.I lament everyday, the loss of souls to codes and those machine-being:Actors, repetitioners, the habits-driven, when life demands choice of every instance.The making of statues is so far what every law has given, Indeed every idea makes its way to thin the mind, and trim it of every process, Of life I demand one thing, to have lived it, but evil is that which prevents, then,Sir, I wish being alone, a demand for a life’s work, and the promise of every success.I want excellence, unique competence, for solely this puts me furthest of everything else,grants me a time to be alone, which I call pride, or happiness. Secretly, I’ll fall in the flower field, each petal a sign of a past fulfilled, I’ll grow until it grows, and as my head takes repose at the center of this order, one serene flight of thought will come depose a sincerest smile — I had enjoyed me as my own — I had what I want — this deserves a rest — till comes the next day.

I want to write horror, but I have not read horror.I know not how to really write it.
The world is my representation of time, space, and causality.
>>25063410>How are you supposed to become a cultured personPrimarily by understanding what you can do with your capabilities and striving toward your goals without resentment toward things beyond your control. Even your body may betray your mind: perhaps it will become ill or become imprisoned against your will.This is simple (I explained it in a paragraph), but very hard.
>>25063625Horror is just writing smut with a different approach to foreplay action and climax even among all the horror subgenres. If you're edgy you can even keep the sex with the gore. It's funny read one story and it's going on and on about torture fuck murder circus of aah I'm going insane levels. Boring wasn't engaged. Read a different story of a seance ritual gone wrong that led to a woman getting her face partially bitten off by a dog. That got a visceral emotional response.

>>25063657I really liked the King in Yellow and various stories by Poe. Big ones I've been rec'd that I need to get my grubby paws on are Blind Owl and The Monk. Perusing archives could land you into a chart with various suggestions. I'd even suggest Greek tragedies if you read with the right mindset.

Reading Who Goes There? by John W Campbell. It was the inspiration for the horror/sci-fi flick The Thing, and further inspired by HP Lovecraft's At the Mountains of Madness. I'm quite liking it. Not a HUGE fan of the constant obscure 1930s transatlantic colloquialisms though, and the scenes with dialogue can be a bit too prolix, but overall it's pretty good. It's my first John W Campbell too. This collection I'm reading it in has got some banger stories. As an aside, why are so many of Philip K Dick's stories also horror stories? He knew what haunts us on an existential level all right.

She then says how soon for sure we should hang.How would you take this interaction? I mean she said "we should" rather than "we will" hang out. Also why would she be going on about her bad weekend seemingly only want to visit if I was there to make her feel better or did I read everything wrong. Should I have taken how a cig is exactly what she needs as a joke and not offer to hang to talk about her bad weekend.Did it make me look desperate or something?

>>25063777Generally no, but issues might arise where the ghost is still in the dead body, or if the ghost is promised in marriage to someone else.I had a dream I was a ghost last night. I had a whole ass house to haunt, but I was mostly in the attic because I knew the house wasn't occupied so I had plenty of time to explore and work out how to use an attic ladder when you have no legs (because ghost). There were lots of spiderwebs, well, cobwebs, so I knew lots of spiders had lived there before but the webs were all dusty and empty of even bugs, so I guess all the spiders moved out at some point too
>>25063291>for funNta but those people aren't using it for fun. They're addicts. There's even studies where if you put them alone without a phone in a room, and give them the option to mildly electrically shock themselves or just sit in silence, people whose brains are fried from eternal scrolling will shock themselves about every six seconds to feel some form of stimulation. They're not turning on their phone for fun. They're doing it because even negative stimulation is better than low stimulus environments for them. They don't like the movie or the phone, they just need both (or an electric shock). It's the same thing with people who need the phone on, the tablet on, the TV on, and music playing on the earphones in order to concentrate on vidya. People genuinely cannot cope without hyper stimulation.
going purely off of my reading of it, i'm beginning to think that one of two things are going to define this century: either the total world domination by chinese communism or some sort of hitherto unrealised political system oriented entirely around artificial intelligence and robotics. the way capitalism in the west and communism with chinese characteristics are like black holes that consume literally everything in their orbit as they continue to expand in size, they're inevitably going to clash and that is going to be the crucial moment of this century but what happens afterwards? i have no idea, i have to continue my reading
>>25064263>>25063348>>25063291>>25063074>>25062585Kek, reading this I remembered going to a Chinese film last year. The director was there for a Q&A. I think it's some CCP propaganda exercise where they pay for distribution and travel. Anyway, the movie ends and the Q&A starts, and suddenly it's very obvious most of the audience has not been paying attention. Some guy who spent half the movie on his phone asks why the parents were so cruel, and the director looks lost because the movie has been about parents who are going above and beyond. The director tried to explain using plot points, and the guy who asked the question responded he didn't see any of those things happen. This guy fully believed he'd seen the movie and the director hadn't, and that's why the director didn't understand their motivations.
>>25064303>This guy fully believed he'd seen the movie and the director hadn't, and that's why the director didn't understand their motivations.It's the same thing with all addicts. They are convinced they remember their kid's birthday party better than all the sober people who called the ambulance on them for the OD they had at the party. Otherwise, you have to admit you have a problem, you know?
>>25064308I can't understand the process it takes to lie to yourself that fully and try to pretend the director doesn't know his movie better than you. I'll trust you it's addiction, but I can't wrap my head around telling the director they didn't put in plot points everyone looking at the main screen saw. That's a level of delusion that I don't understand
>>25064310>That's a level of delusion that I don't understandBe glad you don't know many addicts in that case.
Justice and Disgust --- Justice feelings are directed at victims, and arise by considering what they have lost. Disgust feelings are directed at perpetrators, and arise by considering the degenerate, unvirtuous, uncontrolled behavior of the actor.Many people claim to have a justice-feeling, and hide behind this, when all their focus is clearly put on a perpetrator, and expressing their disgust for this one. Justice-feelings remains a façade to hide behind, because how much can you really care about strangers; really, people want to be allowed to express their disgust, to communicate how someone in the spotlight, is bad *to himself*. It's another confusion arising from people not wanting to admit that morality is related to the self, that is, good and bad are said of actors, and how they engage with themselves, that a criminal is first and foremost bad to himself, and that those considerations, considering people for what they do themselves, are much more important than any consideration of victims.If a victim--maybe all victims--soon exclaim that they enjoyed their suffering, their time in captivity, their slavery, that they wish no reparation, then the one who is convinced of these Justice feelings becomes confused, and starts to support his worldview by claiming that the victims are themselves confused, it's the only explanation, clearly, they must be under some kind of influence. While the one who expressed his disgust honestly can never have his judgement be made so ridiculed,he had passed on judgement to what had be done fully, reprehensed degeneracy, with naught care for consequences, as he should, what a slave enjoys or suffers does not hold lessons, only free choices have a nature to be made right or wrong.

They wear a Home Depot outfit and sass out their checkout machine. They take PrEP and scroll Grindr for an older man to fuck them and pay for a meal. They are accepted by their parents. Gone are the days of the drama of coming out. Now their cringe mother celebrates her 'special boy' and the dad just shows the slightest embarrassment in his eyes.

>>25064292The chinese are a placid people who are satisfied by having everyone pay tribute and tell them they are the most civilized and powerful in the world. I don't think world domination figures in their plans. I think this fear is just projection. AI is uhhh, well maybe, it depends.
>>25064428I 100% believe that you did not get ripped off on Grindr by a younger man who used you as his meal ticket, grandpa. I do not think that happened to you ever.
>>25061354I don't actually think asexual people get libidinal when they are drunk. In fact, I think this woman just wants to have sex with me but is going about it in a very strange way.Then again she does have BPD so maybe this is just how she is. Ngl this thing confuses me and I wish to just go no-contact, but I feel like that would be too mean especially because that just happened to her.Then again if your friends have a track-record of cutting off all contact with you maybe they have a reason.
>>25064437Now explain your defensiveness.
>>25064087Saskatchewan, which is nowhere.
>>25064443I have no need to be defensive about believing you there is 0% chance you were ever ripped off on Grindr by a younger man looking for a meal ticket, grandpa. I'm clearly stating it and unwaivering in that opinion.
>>25064442Then again I have also refused to trust a single word of what she says and milk her for free food from tiem to time so maybe we deserve eachother.Scratch that we don't.

People still use grindr? I thought all the fags had dropped the pretense of dating and moved on to unabashed hookup sites.
>>25064458Some fags do date because they want to. Statistically they are more promiscous than usual but it's not all of them. Ironically, the most consistent and steady relationship anyone I know has had is between two gay men.They've been together for twenty years.
>>25064448No reason yet still very defensive.
>>25064472How's it defensive to say you were never ripped off by a younger man on Grindr for food? I'd assume it's the standard position. Are you saying it's not the standard position and I should be defensive?
>>25064474I don't think many people believe anon is some twink's sugar daddy paying all the bills, for obvious reasons. You're right to not be defensive about it; I don't believe anon got taken for the cost of a high ticket menu item in his entire life.
>>25064474Gay people tend to think they're more clever than they are. Like they're in a reality show
>>25064477Yeah the repressed ones can't even recognise shade, it's kind of sad
>>25064480The flamboyant ones especially are dead-set on implying anyone else is as gay as them
>>25064483Yeah the limper the wrist and the stronger the lisp, the more likely they are to ask others why they're so defensive about being gay. I guess they can't work it out for themselves
>>25064485Oh I've noticed they tend to project their homosexuality on others.It's child-like. As if their development stopped when they first got molested
>>25064487Yeah it's why they're really afraid of younger gays taking free food off them too, a childlike trauma
>>25064488And they tend to lash out when other people point out their disturbed lifestyle.No he didn't get caught eating all the cookies, it was someone else!

We’re watching the very idea of property dissolve under modern capitalism.Nothing is truly owned anymore—everything requires a subscription just to function. Repairing what you bought is treated as vandalism at best, or sabotage at worst. Ownership has been quietly redefined as a temporary license with terms you didn’t negotiate.Meanwhile, people who own a hundred-plus homes will look you straight in the eye and tell you that renting is actually better.Buy a car today and you already know it’ll be in a scrapyard within five or six years—not because it’s worn out, but because faggots raised by single mothers accepted that only a dealership should be allowed to replace a headlight. And to make sure no one ever does it themselves, let’s encrypt the damn thing.This isn’t progress. It’s the systematic elimination of ownership, dressed up as convenience. American capitalism did what every communist regime failed, to abolish private property.

Anyone seen the film A Dangerous Method? Is it any good?>A Dangerous Method is a 2011 historical drama film directed by David Cronenberg. The film stars Keira Knightley, Viggo Mortensen, Michael Fassbender, Sarah Gadon, and Vincent Cassel. Its screenplay was adapted by writer Christopher Hampton from his 2002 stage play The Talking Cure, which was based on the 1993 non-fiction book by John Kerr, A Most Dangerous Method: The Story of Jung, Freud, and Sabina Spielrein.>Set in the period from 1902 to the eve of World War I, A Dangerous Method follows the turbulent relationships between Carl Jung, founder of analytical psychology, Sigmund Freud, founder of the discipline of psychoanalysis, and Sabina Spielrein, initially Jung's patient and later a physician and one of the first female psychoanalysts.[3]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Dangerous_Method>In contrast, Steven Rea of The Philadelphia Inquirer wrote that, despite the film's exploration of "the way our subconscious works, the way we repress, and suppress, natural urges—the constant battle between the rational and the instinctive, the civilized and the wild", the film "feels distant, and clinical, in ways you wished it did not."[20] In an interview with The Daily Beast's Marlow Stern, Cronenberg himself is quoted as saying that the love scenes between Jung and Spielrein were "quite clinical. These were people who, even when they were having sex, they were observing themselves having sex because they were so interested in their reactions to things."[11]hehe interesting, and I can relate
>>25064635yes, I have seen it twice, one time in the cinema when it released and the second time on my laptop last year, I'm a big Cronenberg fan so I'm biased and enjoy pretty much everything that he does. In this film particularly I've enjoyed the great dialogue and the characters themselves.
>>25064643Thanks. Guess I'll give it a peep.
Been looking at photo albums of midsized Informatics Consulting company, bland office, nerds who don't go to the gym, ugly women, performative social events, I can already see myself dying; I'd probably feel 'comfortable' there, that's what I'm scared of. I think I'm gonna target bigger sized companies, with pretty offices and pretty ladies. I'm already eyeing a few, their offices have lights, people who care and smile, don't seem like they're gonna break out in tears and are hiding a depression, the difference is so striking, as in between life and death. I'm a man of aesthetic what can I say.

omg, I had the most dreadful experience going on r/Nietzsche, happens to be a yearly event by now that I go on Reddit one way or another, to remind myself why I hated the place. People there speak to say nothing, they write immense paragraphs dedicated to nothing, and I cannot begin to emphasize how much everyone uses fancy superfluous words. Every line brought my confusion to a higher degree.So, thank you, y'all who stay succinct, even though most of you are retarded, and even though I often find this place boring, the few times it is not boring, people are clear and straight, and don't bully my mind into retardation.It's good to be grateful sometimes, I am grateful for 4chan's existence, I love you, men, now you can call me gay.
>>25064347I'd only say the archive of thirty year old crosswords is worth it. For the most part, if you're not fucking retarded, even the Friday/Saturday/Sunday puzzles are trivial to complete and just a matter of speed.

>>25065324A few months ago, I went into a bank to deposit a check, and I stood in line for about ten minutes. During this, I endured a pair of idiots, an employee and another customer. They agreed that pit bulls are really very sweet animals if only you'll treat them right, and that the only reason why they hurt people is because they are abused. These two jokers omitted to specify forms of harm (ripping a baby's face off, that sort of thing).Yes, I was a skinny-wristed incel who wouldn't do or say shit and waited to come home and seethe online about it (feel free to imagine the milleu in comic form), but that's beside the point. The point is that I had to listen to two people who were both stupid and wrong.

I have an acquaintance that I genuinely hope goes to prison before he completes his education as a psychologist. That man should never ever be trusted with anything, let alone emotionally vulnerable people, he's an absolute monster and I would not surprised if he becomes a serial killer at some point in this life. His soul is pure evil.

>>25065297Anything and everything by Henry Miller. Particularly Tropic of Cancer + Colossus of Marousi
>>25065575What makes you think that?
>>25065603He can't shut the fuck up about pedophilia, he talks about something related to sex with children every single time I've talked to him so far, when he gets drunk he starts talking about how he wants to murder the people around him, you cannot discuss anything with him the second you disagree with him he starts freaking out and threatening you with violence, he's prone to making extremely hurtful comments while pretending its all jokes, and he loves talking about how him emotionally manipulating people into giving him what he wants. From what he's told me he's grown up with hardcore pornography, starting at age 6 or something, so that probably explains some of it, but his very core is rotten if you ask me.I don't usually wish that bad people things happen to people, but it would genuinely be in the interest of the general public if he were locked away. The mere thought of this deranged psycho giving people advise (in my post I mistakenly wrote 'psychologist' but he intents on becoming a psychotherapist) on how to live their life disturbs me immensely.
>>25065629holy shit I had a stroke while writing this, my bad. Editing my posts a lot does that sometimes.
>>25065629>>25065632Let's assume he's serious about all this and he's not blabbing about it to anyone else in a position to confront him: I think you have to keep tabs on him and if you see in years to come that he does get into a psychotherapy training program, you gotta contact them and tell them your concerns, because not all programs scrutinize their trainees as much as they could.
>>25065663>Let's assume he's serious about all thisHe is. You should see his eyes when he says shit like what I described, they light up like he's talking about his favorite interest or something; it's really unsettling.>you gotta contact them and tell them your concerns, because not all programs scrutinize their trainees as much as they could.Lol I really doubt that would do anything. I can't prove that he's a complete psycho and from what he's told me, he acts completely different about these people. But I am definitely keeping tabs on him; so far, I've managed to completely avoid every being alone with him for longer than a minute or so, and I plan on keeping it that way. He's one of the most unpleasant people I've ever met. Absolute serial killer material.
I had a dream where a girl tried to kiss me. Which is funny because that has happened to me twice IRL. Unfortunately, both times, the girls happened to be underage.
>>25065766How underage are we talking her exactly?
I got hired to some sales position after a day-long interview process. Not sure if I should take the job or not. I need the money but the commute would be hell and I'd despise the work.
>>25065773One was 15, the other was 17.
>>25065778How ancient are you that 17 is a problem for you?
>>25065780It's just awkward mate.
>>25065786Ok gramps.Be careful with the prune juice, alright? Too much and you'll spend your night on the toilet.
>>25065766how old were you?
>>25065778I once kissed a 10-year-old girl.
>teenage years>"I bet being an adult will be so cool im gonna have a cute gf and my own place and make tons of money at a real job">adult years>have my own place and make 6 figures>but also kissless virgin who owns several dildos and a sex machine
>>25065843When you were 10, right?
>>25065878No.
>>25065885Then what age?
>>250658878
I've been thinking of going completely offline save for the bare necessities increasingly more often recently. The internet hasn't been entertaining for years and the news are just hysterical psyop pieces that convey no valuable information. Social media is cancer and there hasn't been a game that I was legitimately excited for in about a decade. Music sucks. TV shows suck, movies suck...what little real information I do get from the internet paints a picture so bleak of the present and the future that I probably might be better off if I didn't know about them at all.
>>25065888I was waiting for some Lewis Carrol type shit. Now you come here with this.
runny yoke is basically just cum
my life is so mid and i can't think of anything to make it good, like even if i had a big exit from a business or sth, i would just sit around doing nothing or maybe go out do hedonistic stuff go concerts or have "experience", try to get laid or whatever, meh, i'd probably just have to start another business, i mean what else u gonna do rly? rope i guess, maybe read more books, shitpost on here idk, collect antiquities maybe that could be kinda sick
>>25065937no it isnt
>>25065947zoomer Franz Kafka be like
>>25065947i had everything before giving it up to be a NEET and now i'm truly alive
>>25065964idk man to me being at work and being at home is basically the same so i might as be at work and get a check
>>25065960i met kafka's nephew and honestly it's not far off the markhe's married with kids though so he's above that faggot
i'm gay
The sky is blue.
>>25066133Actually, the sky is black.
>>25066137Thanks for playing along anon, just the kind of retarded response I was anticipating. Anyway, I need to get back to being blackpilled. My life has been going to good lately and I feel too happy. Give me your most potent blackpills. No blackpills can phase my serene temperament.
>>25066143Right now, as we speak, in many households, children are being abused, molested, raped, tortured, murdered. A little girl is being whipped and molested by her schizophrenic single mother.
>>25066145I didn't ask you to turn me on anon. I also happen to be reading Justine right now, it's not bad. A little repetitive.
>>25066162That's just gross, not blackpilling. Next
>>25066164True, I forgot what we were doing.
>>25066166And I'm not even trying to be edgy with my Justine mention. It's just not blackpilling to be reminded of innocent people being hurt... Imagine I've been around the block a few times and read a little. Perhaps it's futile to try to blackpill me... don't waste your time. I've transcended this vain world.
>>25066173I don't really care about children being abused either. There's nothing really blackpilling in this world.
>>25066186A fellow sage... I'm not surprised to find you here anon. Now what do we do?
All writers worth a damn have an intense stare, doubly so if they're old. Old people in general look ridiculous without some intensity to their faces, whereas on the youth it looks clumsy and affected. The facial fat pads and volume of the cheeks serve to soften the expressions of the youth, while their absence gives a sharp and relentless quality to the countenances of the elderly. But if there is nothing being expressed on their sharp features, which is only too common in the majority, we feel an unconscious sense of pity toward the one before us, of a life perhaps over before it's due.
>>25066324I saw this tweet like three months ago and have thought about how true it is almost every day since.
I kinda like Bizarro fiction.
>>25066324>>25066326People often say I have an intimidating look before they get to know me. Like the way I rest my face and relax my eyes makes me seem like I'm pissed or something.
Imagine how dreary life would be without gender.I am so heckin grateful I get to pick my gender every single day, with my vegan frappuccino.
>>25066324>>25066326I believe this is true but not to gauge someone's smarts as much as whether he's prey or not. The two ideas overlap but it is possible to be smart and prey at the same time. Despite the implications, the majority of normies are actually predators. Prey are a minority of people who are defective. I think all predators can instantly tell if they're talking to prey. It scares me a lot because I feel like I've been branded on the forehead. It's why there are meek people who seem to be a magnet for assholes
>>25065407She's clearly interested in you.See where it goed. If she wasn't after anything specific she wants to meet up again, she's interested in you
HEAD LIKE A HOLE
>>25065847Stop larping as a degenerate, (((you))) are a real mind gifted with dignity and strength
>>25065969you need challenges. have a book to write, develop a community around your interests, make a guild and dominate everyone, play some games and record Youtube videos analyzing everything and make them the best you can, become a god at building in minecraftNow I'm only citing virtual stuff because reality is fucked, and starting a company or trying to build any building seems like a hassle and will be hard for anyone who doesn't strive strongly
I had someone in public ask me what 'manifest' means and I'm embarrassed because I had difficulty answering. It's like defining 'being'!
>>25066550It's not quite that hard. It originates from the Latin idea for what we would call "being caught red-handed", and eventually stopped the legal connotations to become something which is just obviously evident.
new>>25066580>>25066580>>25066580newPuccini's Tosca edition
>>25066581This one's still on page 2
>>25066599We've been over this. When the thread goes past the bump limit, it discourages people from posting -- who wants to put effort into a post no one will read, much less respond to? By making a new thread ASAP, I'm keeping the creative juices flowing and the social environment alive.Plus, you know, Puccini's Tosca.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRPDulYxIAc
>>25066612>Everyone else ignores the rules and shits up the catalog tooKek, it's hilarious that you think posts about ED were worth killing a thread. If you're ever wondering why the board got cancer, it's because you metastasized your impotent wank to the books board
>>25066612>>>/soc/We don't need two containment threads for lonely people who aren't reading
>>25066618>it's hilarious that you think posts about ED were worth killing a thread.That's not me. I don't make these threads to talk about anything, I do it so other anons have something to talk about. And it's not just about them, it's about all the other anons who'd be discouraged from posting until this thread expires.>>25066619I do read. And write. I like these threads to expel excess creative energy and random musings.
>>25066621>>>/soc/ i don't care you want to lie to yourself about being creative or liking books, it's clear you don't, you want a chat room that soothes your ego about you being creative and other lies you tell about yourself on the internet. If you had an on topic thread, you would have posted that instead, but you're a very lonely liar.
>>25066625But I do make threads about books when I finish them!
>>25066621>I'm not making it for me>It's all the people who posted in my thread, not me!Kek it's really funny you think that was plausible as an excuse for shitting up the catalog
>>25066621You know everyone who wants it front page is in here on auto refresh and nowhere else. Anon's right, you're getting cancerous replies because cancer attracts cancer. That's how the site's always worked. The mythic good posters you want are the anons who follow the basic rules of 4chan and lurk moar. You're self selecting for off topic retards.
>>25066638Again, it's about people being discouraged from posting because it's past the bump limit. And not only discouraged, but in practice too -- the amount of times I've seen someone make an effort post in one of these threads as it's on page 9 and it gets no replies, probably only a single reader or two, and then expires, it makes me sad. I don't like seeing that happen to anyone.
>>25061354In the early naughties where everyone had a better, more interesting or at least costlier places to go than wherever they happened to loiter around during The evening on the off chance their soul crushing job allowed them to do anything besides grinding vitality into dust for main road defrosting purposes and but also for The Machine and its lubrication with tears and sweat as they toiled, while daydreaming about loitering the streets where infinite events of nothing of value was happening almost every weekend. In here, where to stand still was a death sentence and all the queues and lack of public spaces avaliable drilled notions of some seemingly forward movement towards some yet unseen but sure-to-be-there cliff. What goes up must meet back with the ground. Then swiftly exchange cash and goes deeper into the crevices of mother earth to fix itself right up and shoots back up just to crash down again. There, was where we marched down in the dirt and stood around looking around, drinking. Essentially; Loitering As A Past Time. Not out of rebellion or to stand up against the ever marching progress (& time) saying stop screaming begging it to stop but due to a distinct lack of funds to have our runts on some stool. Obviously to slow down any commute is a cardinal sin and general observation is looked down upon especially for the tourists, which everyone but the most dick swinging of the swindlers abhorred deeply. Where almost anything was photogenic in a way the Mona Lisa is in that if you are here now and not here all the time (like a security guard from Louvre would be) might as well remove the phone from your ass pocket, or in some cases actually not even remove the gaze from the phone and record the magnificent sidewalks and the Old Buildings and the Culture to prove a point of some kind and to prove your existence where none seem to care, which they actually don't. A never ending chain of cars clashing honking and screeching their ways on roads spiraling out of control tightly knit into steep inclines peaks and streets built on what might as well amount to holes on the map on top of the land.
>>25066642I think you probably think sage is about other people's posts, not the value of your own to the catalog. You're trying to tell someone who's responding ITT nobody would make a good response ITT and you do not see the plot hole there. I really suspect you get no value out of reading anything if you're that deficient in reason. Lrn2 4chan
>>25066643Is this from something? It's quite good.
>>25066643you should post this in the new thread so others see it>>25066580
>>25066649It's still visible here. Stop shilling your duplicate thread.
>>25066644Yes, me and you are having a back-and-forth but how many others are reading our posts, in the situation we were discussing something worthwhile and requiring effort that we wish to be read? It'd probably be none because it's past the bump limit. That's my issue.
>>25066652You're pissed off people are reading >>25066643post ITT and not in your duplicate. You're also only looking for back and forth (You)s of no real substance, so anon is probably better off not posting in response to you or your threads. It shouldn't take multiple posts from me and other anons for you to learn the basic rules of the site
>>25066649thanks for the heads up ill also post there if they wont decapitate me for it>>25066647just something i wrote shitfaced last night. it goes on like this for a while;Everyone was bored and nothing was boring, there were no sorts of beliefs, faiths, callings, quests, purposes anymore yet anything could be that which you wanted at any time with arbitrary whimsy if you were naive and or stupid enough. People in what was now essentially in the middle fo their lives were dating perpetually among bars to people whom with they had no connection but the table on which they sat upon and everyone was going quite literally fucking insane. A smog of business enveloping, making its way towards the circulatory systems of those affected completely warping apriori conceptions of general life and those of whom got spared that were crushed by government mandated ennui. It was unclear how anyone made their money or how much they had not that none of them had much but still, economics is just economists shrugging their shoulders until the wings fall of the plane. People on top of two hundred fifty year loans floating on open market bobbing up and down while sharks nibble on their toes. The city meanwhile was constantly screeching, screaming and clawing (but it never begged, it had its children for that) around itself like a drug addict that was going through some heavy withdrawals, man. Picking at its own scabs demolishing there rebuilding here with never ending shrieks of metal cutting metal and pounding agony of metal breaking concrete and this was okay with them for the same reason why no one stands in front of trucks going a hundred and twenty kilometers per hour. Making you wake up at nine am to absolute fucking nothing of a day again. Bullshit. Trafic lights were a suggestion most of the time for the motored and bipedal alike and even then they gave up at a certain hour blinking on again off again in that halfhearted yellow. The same yellow that reflects off the wet asphalt and bounces up towards your hazy gaze after a long night drinking then walking home because the SAME asshole yellow car refused you for its myriad of reasons. Burning its bastardly suggestions in your retina. Dragging you down to their level of relapse. Then you wake up at seven am because the Bank of which you fell asleep on the shrubbery of is about to open now and they would very much like you to fuck off. Anything that there is with enough moula you could ship it directly on your doorstep with your own personal corporate owned mule at any hour of the day no matter the circumstances of weather if you dont mind salvia in your food. Under siege by its own militia where they roam the streets in and out of uniforms and with its eyes everywhere always looking but never seeing anything that might be of importance to you if the need ever arose. And that need does arise you fall asleep on a cart your backpack gets stolen you get mugged they beat you for a glance in here.
>>25066656It has nothing to do with "pissed off", it just makes me feel bad because I don't like seeing anons take time and effort to make a post only for no one, or at least very few people, to read it when it's a situation where it normally would be read, ie as a result of the bump limit.Anyway, I'm done discussing it. I'm sorry for what I did. I won't do it again.
>>25066660You're really bad at 4chanPopular threads hit page 11 hundreds of posts past bump limit, because the people posting in them are invested, not picking the first thing on the catalogSearch the catalog before you make a threadNot everyone views on the default setting of bump limit, just like not everyone is on yotsubaThis shit is so basic you shouldn't be posting

>>25065183Give me the short now anon I need this
>>25066326When I was an undergraduate studying mathematics, I was preparing for the Putnam exam in a seminar with other serious students. Somehow, there was a a young boy who couldn't have been any older than 13 in the seminar with us. I was once paired up with him to do an exercise that involved some polyhedron and counting something with it, can't exactly remember. He solved it almost instantly and I didn't get what he was saying. When everyone came back together, the professor (of great renown) asked the kid to explain. He said something along the lines of "just unfold it in your mind," and no one in the room knew what he was talking about, but he had gotten the correct answer. I'll never forget the face of the professor, like a seventh grader that couldn't understand an inequality.That kid had eyes I cannot well explain. Half-lidded, as if everything in the world was devoid of stimulation. Looking at his eyes directly somehow made me feel inferior in a way I have never felt since, even after meeting many more great geniuses in academia. You can always tell someone's intelligence from their eyes.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
>>25066812>anon didn't have to play the turtle logo computer mapping game
