>>25386767i had a dream like that once. met a girl who made me feel like i was worth something. woke up and spent the whole day trying to go back. never did. the gestalt thing sounds like something my brain would cook up too, some half-baked philosophy that feels huge in the moment. probably nothing. probably just your head trying to make sense of being lonely.
>>25387410man thats just strange. not even gonna ask.
>>25388129Obligatory legacy image
>>25388129Lol. True. Everyone out here acting like they dont but we all do. The picture is great though I saved it. Also the thread title is the most honest thing I've seen all week.
>>25388129that title is perfect. glad i found this thread before bed. needed a laugh.
>>25388129refreshing honesty for once. most threads are people trying to sound deep or whatever. this one just gets it.
>>25388139:333
>>25388139This is the best thing I've ever seen.
This too shall pass.
>>25388125Nah he looks like a chomo too. I don't know, I just don't need someone scaring the girls and families away. Plus, y'know, I live in this neighborhood!But yes, I won't approach.inb4 it's you
>>25388180I had the same reaction the first time I saw it. And every time I've looked at them since.
The devil told me a secret, which I cannot tell. When I die, I'll be forgotten, and the secret will die as well. :)
>>25388201How devilish
I think I was meant to work all the time like Tesla. When I have free time I just get sad
>>25388215Have you tried spending that free time, oh I dunno...reading?!?!?!
>>25388218It just feels pointless.

>>25388129I want so badly to be wrong, but pattern recognition proves me right over and over again. True love isn't real and in the end "love" is transactional,conditional, chemicals in your brain, and/or survival of the fittest.
>>25388220Everyone of you on this site's so goddamn lame.
I haven't had a genuine conversation on this site in years. All of you became so fake
>>25388228This is a thread literally on a board named '/lit/erature', anon.

>>25388232Kind of hard to have a combo when each response requires 3 fucking captchas
>>25388234Literature is not about "books" it's about the world around us. If you think literature is about words and grammar then you're a retard brainwashed by academia into narrowing his perspective of the world into a tiny safe little box. Literature is about everything.
>>25388225You seem like a fun person to be around. You should kys.
>>25388225>chemicals in your brainThat's just how your brain processes a very real phenomenon. Like when you learn 1+1=2, some chemicals or electricity in your synapses get shifted as you hold, understand, recall, and utilize that knowledge. Doesn't mean it's not real.
>>25388232Well, what do you want to talk about? I just got three books off kindle yesterday and mail ordered two paperbacks and doordashed food at my friend's house for him, me and his roommate (they're both named John) and fended off a storm which swept through here in Ohio. I also spend the night in the ghetto with this black lady we knew watching fireworks and heard gunshots while fireworks were being exploded in the street.
Glory to God in the highest, and praise Him for His infinite mercy and grace. He is the only thing that gives me peace. Prayer really does cause miracles sometimes. I need to obey Him more readily.>>25388232Yeah I've gotten bored with it. A few more weeks and I'll probably leave for a few years at least.
>>25388239Literature is at its most fundamental, simply ink on a page.
>>25388237I agree!
>>25388261>t.
>>25388239Yeah, don't ever reply to my posts ever again.
>>25388253>Glory to God in the highest, and praise Him for His infinite mercy and grace. He is the only thing that gives me peace. Prayer really does cause miracles sometimes. I need to obey Him more readily.I've been reading Faulkner lately, and fortunately I had a religious childhood so I have some experience, context, and understanding, but seeing how often and the ways the Southern characters in his novels evoke the concept of God, it's like they're a different species entirely. The depth of human creativity and the breadth of our possible modes of being will never cease to astonish me.
I’ll be making $660 dollars tonight. I just have to do is sit here in this hospital for 8 hours next to this inmate. I can probably nap too. He’s cuffed, and wheelchair bound.My job is to babysit criminals, sometimes in our jail, sometimes in a county-contracted hospital. Easiest job in the world. Why would anyone choose to go out to patrol? To be a real hero? To get executed by some nigger who doesn’t wanna go back to prison? To try to resuscitate a four year old whose wrists were slit and left in a bathtub by his dad? To oversee a traffic collision where a drunk driver nukes a family of four’s life with an F-150? Or maybe it’s so I can put fourteen holes a tweaked out homeless man who pulls a knife in a Jack In The Box.I must be an idiot, because I want to see all of it. This job is the closest thing next to a military combat deployment that we have in this day and age to witness the real shit, the bloody guts and gore that life has to offer. I need my ghetto-gunslinger credential.I’ve spent entire shifts scrolling reels, and it just isn’t hitting it anymore. Nothing makes you feel more alive than staring death in the face. It used to bother me when my ex’s friends would call me a pig. I realized none of this is for them. It’s for me. Getting paid is just the cherry on top.
>>25388306Well, there's a reason there's so many TV shows and movies about cops. The potential experiences and stories are boundless.Also why aren't you using that time to read?
>>25388310I’ve read a few books with this free time. Finished Crime and Punishment recently. It was just fine. I’m sure there are a few dozen Raskolnikov types in our jail now. Funny enough most of the intellectual types I’ve met were alleged child molesters. My favorite book is In Cold Blood. I’d like to read more literary crime novels.

>>25388129Happy that we're finally getting some rain, not so happy that water intruded into my 1st floor apt again. Carpet's very damp underfoot. Last time it happened it ruined a box of notebooks I'd been keeping on the floor. Complex never fixed it. This time I laid down towels in advance and moved everything off the floor near the baseboard and we seem to be okay. Still, though. Upsetting.

I'm sick of it. I hate everything He asks me to do but I'm doing it anyway because I love Him and I want Him to be happy but He never ever grants me peace or joy or anything but more suffering every single day.

Italian manwhore summer is here.
Hey babes, what is going down today? How we all feeling. Me? Hopeful :)
>>25388282I recently finished The Moviegoer and there's a part where a character mentions that there's a similarity between some of the Russian and Southern upper classes, I don't know if that's true but I've always felt a very close kinship to the spirituality of Dostoevsky. I also have grown to treasure all the different ways we can be, less the evil. I don't think the 90s liberal globoutopianism ever would have ended well but I'm very glad I can appreciate it and the love or at least kindness that went into it now.>>25388378It took me a long time and losing and regaining my faith and happiness for me to get where I am now. I'm very very sorry anon, I'll pray for you. I still suffer a lot as well, but I don't mind it as much.
Quick question bros. What do you use to read pdfs? I have been using Adobe Acrobat for the longest time, but their incessant gimmicks and AI nonsense are starting to rile me

>>25388129been thinking about this thread title all day honestly. like yeah everyone cums. its the one universal truth. doesnt matter who you are or what you believe or how much money you make. we all end up in the same place doing the same thing. kind of comforting in a weird way. my grandfather used to say that the only thing that unites all men is death and taxes but i think he missed this one. death and taxes and cumming. thats the real trilogy. you could write a book about it. three acts. birth, cumming, death. maybe thats too simple though. maybe im just tired and overthinking a dumb thread title because i havent slept in two days and my brain is running on fumes. i keep coming back to this thread though. there's something about it. like everyone's just being honest for once. no pretense. no trying to sound smart or deep or whatever. just people acknowledging the basic shit we all share. i wish more threads were like this. instead of arguing about politics or whatever people could just say yeah i came today and it was fine. not great not terrible. just fine. and that would be enough. maybe thats the real literature. not the books we read but the stuff we all know but never say out loud. anyway i should probably go to bed. but i wont. ill probably stay up and refresh this thread like a moron until the sun comes up. thats just how it goes. cheers to everyone here for keeping it real.

I had a dream last night where I castrated myself (somehow rather cleanly) in a movie theater and kept my bits in my pocket. I didn't know why I did it, and immediately regretted it, so I thought about how I needed to find a doctor that could reattach it. I started panicking, worrying about the things one might worry about in such a situation: how much time would I have before the procedure could not be done? would it even be possible to reattach? would it work like it should again? would a woman be able to tell? etc.An attractive woman sat next to me in the cinema, and after exchanging some flirtatious looks, she moved her hand to my leg and started to tease me. When her hand moved up to my pocket, I just knew she was going to reach in and find my detached manhood. I couldn't have that, so in a panic I ran out of the cinema.I don't ever have nightmares or disturbing dreams. I didn't think I had any sexual frustrations, but this dream has caused me to doubt that now. I also don't put much stock into dream interpretation, but this one has definitely made an impact on me.
I just want to say I love and appreciate all of you who post in these threads, especially those with which I get into shitflinging arguments or schizophrenic pseudoimprov roleplaying with. It's a lot of fun.
>>25388431I honestly dont think you do. You have likely been lying to from the get go. FROM THE GET GO I TELL YA!
>>25388453You got me
>>25388453I believe her. A lot of people here tend to do things that no one else does.
>>25388129first time i ever had sex i was seventeen and it was with a girl i met at a summer camp. we were both counselors and we'd been flirting for like two weeks. one night we snuck out after lights out and went down to the lake. it was dark and cold and i was nervous as hell. we were both awkward and didnt really know what we were doing. she laughed at one point because i almost fell off the dock. it wasnt romantic or beautiful or any of that stuff movies make it look like. it was just two kids fumbling around in the dark trying to figure things out. we didnt talk much afterwards. just sat there looking at the water. she left camp the next day and i never saw her again. i dont even remember her name anymore. but i remember the lake and how cold it was and how she smiled when i fell. weird how some things stick with you and others just fade.
>>25388360I remember as a kid, reading the gaming magazines, I wanted to play Animal Crossing so bad. It looked so full of color and imagination. I never ended up doing so. Sad. How different the future of my life may have been...
>>25388472You can play it now

In hindsight, I wish I had done [redacted grotesquely immoral action].
>>25388481I'm sure in the other timeline you would say something like " In hindsight, I wish I hadn't done [redacted grotesquely immoral action]."From this we can conclude that regret is a constant. Suffering is inevitable. Peace a choice. Happiness to be striven for. The percolating past a prize to be discarded
>>25388129theres this girl at work. 16. im 23.i saw her changing her shirt once through the crack in the breakroom door. i didnt mean to. i also didnt look away.she smiled at me yesterday and i forgot how to do my job for a second. i felt like throwing up.my friend says its fine. shes almost legal. it doesnt feel fine.i think about her when i wake up. i feel like a creep. i probably am one.i unfollowed her on instagram yesterday. then i followed her again today.i dont know what to do.
>>25388490Just beat off when you first wake up and you should be fine.
>>25388488There are also timelines where he doesn't regret whichever decision he made.
>>25388490Unfollow her again on instagram and banish those thoughts from your head the instant they appear. If you catch yourself thinking about her, force yourself to think about something else. Eventually they will go away, but even if they don't, indulging such thoughts can only lead to worse outcomes.
>>25388492okay so suddenly you're an expert on quantum mechanics?? Yeaaaaa listen hotshot, just stay in your lane okay? Let the big boys do the talking
>>25388494i know youre right. i unfollowed her again after i read this. felt like i was cutting off my own arm but i did it. the thoughts dont just go away though. theyre there when i wake up, when im at work, when im trying to fall asleep. i try to think about other stuff but it always circles back to her. maybe it will fade with time. i hope so. i dont want to be this guy.
>>25388490>>25388498Man covid really ruined your generation huh?
I'm in love with a woman who is an alcoholic, a liar, a social climber, and a materialist to an obscene degree. She is strikingly beautiful and she is rich. I have never been with someone so naturally. We dated for several years. She wanted to get married, but I left her because I thought she would make a terrible mother. I still think this. It's been two years now since we split, and we haven't talked in almost that much time. I still think about her almost daily. I long to spend another lazy afternoon with her. I miss her perfume.
>>25388488Percolating is a word I always have to look up.
>>25388511>richSo you could have hired a nanny to raise the kid, you dunce.
>>25388514What about the word fallaciloquence? Do you have to look it up?
I used to have a crush on this girl, but then she gave me the ick when she sniffed and I could hear her clogged nose.

>>253881291) Schlegel, Preface to Prichard’s *Egyptian Mythology*, p. xv. One difference between the Hindus and the Egyptians that M. de Schlegel considers fundamental is circumcision. The Hindus were unfamiliar with this practice—common in Egypt and often, though erroneously, viewed as a specifically Jewish custom. Like tattooing, it is a practice of Negro origin, entirely consistent with the concepts of that race. The hygienic rationale often cited today to justify or explain it strikes me as unconvincing, whether the procedure is performed only on men or on both men and women without distinction, as is the case in several African tribes. I attribute the origin of this custom solely to a desire to create a distinctive mark—or perhaps merely to an innate predilection for mutilation—which the adopting populations have interpreted in their own ways depending on time and place. Among the Ekkhilis, circumcision is performed on adults in an atrocious manner. The operator tears away the foreskin in the presence of the victim’s parents and fiancée. The slightest sign of pain is deemed dishonorable. Tetanus frequently claims the patient’s life within a few days.Mhm ahh yes, at last finally I see. Thanks, as always, Count Gobineau.

>>25388573I always figured it was done to make sex not as enjoyable -- so as to improve self-control and licentious behavior -- and/or make themselves last longer in sex to demonstrate their superiority over other tribes of men.
>>25388129my daddy used to say if you let them in your neighborhood you might as well pack up and leave. i never really knew what he meant until i saw it happen.
Almost done reading Man After Man. I should say "reading" anyways, I guess, because I've been listening to an audio recording of it. I got a notice at my door today that my physical has arrived and is waiting for me at the post office. I've got to pay $26.77 CAD in duty on it. What bullshit. Once I get my paws on it I'll take a good look over it and at all the fucked up illustrations. Then I'll put it away carefully in my shelf unit that services as a bookshelf. I might rearrange some of my bookshelves too and decide upon some books to donate or sell. But I'm going to savour poring over the book.

I sometimes like to tell the story of the time someone offered me five bitcoin for nude pics of myself when I was 15 bach when they were $30 a pop, and how I regret not taking it, with the punchline of how it'd make me the highest paid amateur male pornographer ever on a per picture basis given the price of bitcoin now. However, every time I do, people give me weird and disturbed looks. Is this story actually not as amusing as I think it is?
I have accepted the fact that I will never have a girlfriend. I believe life is meaningless, we come from a "void" and return to it without the ability to understand what we are or why we are here. I do not expect much on a daily basis, so I avoid emotional rollercoasters.But there is a tiny part of me that worships the idea of loving and spending life with a single person, and thinks it is the best kind of illusion to bear this suffering of life.I often daydream about a woman. She is defined by our interactions, and I can't identify or imagine her physically, she appears as a question mark. I sometimes imagine us in a tulip field, harvesting flowers and having fun, or me helping her when she struggles, even when she is depressed or insecure. When I pass by a jewelry store, I wish she existed in real life so that I could buy her the beautiful gold necklace in the window. I feel the same way when I see beautiful women's clothes in a shop. When I play the piano, I imagine her singing next to me. Sometimes, I even learn specific pieces just so I can imagine her singing the lyrics.I wrote a very short poem in my diary about how she appears and disappears. But, as I said before, I have accepted the fact that no one will ever be cast in that question mark

I want to write a book but I'm afraid of being labeled YA. I'd kill myself if someone said my work wad YA.
>>25388663I think the very first time I came across the name forever ago I thought it meant something like "things your mother wouldn't be proud of you looking at" but since then I just try to not think about it beyond its catchiness.
>>25388668what does fatherless mean then
>>25388667I know that feel. I've contemplated writing a youth romance literary novel but how is that not basically YA? You'd have to other be already established as a literary writer or make the writing style something high modernist esque or whatever, but that's not me.

Oh, and a really good gallery system, so you'd find a good video, then you look at the custom galleries or groups it's been added to, and then you get a lot of similar quality content curated by fellow users.

Have you ever had a nightmare that startled you awake? The visceral fear makes it hard for you to fall back asleep. I reached over and held my wife to remind me that I am safe.Later on in the day the impression of the nightmare sent a tingle down my spine, an unsettling, hair-raising feeling.I forgot about that feeling, until today. I saw someone looking at me in the cafe. He was pale with very small eyes. He was smiling. I felt myself jump in my chair. I closed my laptop and left the cafe, quickly but discreetly. He looked like the monster. Thinking about it elicits a tingle on the right side of my head. I want to forget, but I’m afraid I will see him again.
>>25388753I once had a dream about my own, personal Mr Hyde. He didn't look threatening, small and physically weak as he was, like me if I had made all the bad choices but stuck in the body of a 10 year old. Morally corrupt to the base, addicted to alcohol and all kinds of drugs, and with nothing speaking for himself other than a party-going mood. His face was the ugliest thing I ever saw, and as he approached the main entry door of my house, I hastily shut it close, without success. Mr Hyde was standing next to me, visibly happy about his success. I screamed irl and woke up because of it.

Main Theme: Raw HonestyThe thread begins with an intentionally vulgar/provocative opening title ("EVERYONE CUMS edition"), which multiple users ironically praise for its "refreshing honesty." Several posters comment that they appreciate the thread because it lacks the usual academic pretense found on the board, serving instead as a collective dumping ground for unedited, personal thoughts.Prominent Content & Sub-DiscussionsConfessions and Relationship Regrets: * One user laments a past relationship with a wealthy, beautiful alcoholic whom he left because he thought she would be a terrible mother, noting he still misses her daily.Another shares a deeply anxious confession about a workplace infatuation with a 16-year-old coworker, asking how to handle the intrusive thoughts while acknowledging it feels creepy.An anonymous poster recalls the bittersweet, awkward memory of losing their virginity at a summer camp lake.Dark and Existential Reflections:A hospital security guard/babysitter for cuffed inmates shares a cynical, adrenaline-seeking post about wanting to transition to active police patrol specifically to "stare death in the face" and witness real-world gore.An ongoing theological debate occurs between a poster finding immense peace in God/prayer, and another who bitterly claims that doing everything God asks has only brought suffering, stating that "the only thing that calms me down... is Death."Literary & General Chit-Chat:Brief debates pop up regarding literature itself, with one user arguing academia has ruined the definition of literature, stating it isn't just about "words and grammar" but about "everything."Tech-sharing moments occur, such as a user asking for a better alternative to Adobe Acrobat to read PDFs (prompting a recommendation for SumatraPDF).A user shares their excitement about waiting for a physical copy of Dougal Dixon's speculative evolution book Man After Man to arrive in the mail.Bizarre Dreams & Shitposting:A poster details a highly vivid, anxiety-inducing dream about accidentally castrating himself in a movie theater right before a woman tries to flirt with him.Standard image sharing, surreal poetry (a frantic paragraph about needing a terrifying car that "laughs in the face of god"), and casual observations about daily life (like chipped coffee mugs or wearing pajama pants to 7-Eleven).
>>25388239You're right, anon. You're right about literature.But the thing about academia, is a hallucination. >Narrowed perspective into a tiny safe little boxThat is a pretty standard and easy to gleen figurative gesture you're making there.We can feel like everyone around us has had their ability to think hamstrung. See how I use another figurative gesture "hamstringing" to point figuratively at what I see you're talking about? I think youre right, people have naive views. They lack curiosity at large. But why do you think academia is the culprit? And what do you mean by academia? Cambridge/Oxford type academia? What about American Black academics? Or continental philosophical academics? Do you mean the debt fueled collegiate system of the States?There are lots of academics who would agree with your statement about literature.So what is academia a figure for in your speech? Or, what is academia a figure for in the the psychic conflict that is transpiring within you?
>>25388514It just makes me think of coffee

>>25388129So the Vikings knew about America and frequently went there to load their ships with the precious wood that grew there. But the Vikings weren't the ones making the discovery, they learned about those mighty lands from the Irish whalehunters.All world maps prior to the 'discovery' of 1492 show lands on the other side of the Atlantic. They did not know about their true extensions, about their distance from the shore, nor did they have permanent ties to the native inhabitants, but they knew that they were there, and they went under iconic names like: Ultima Thule, Brasil, the Land of Eternal Youth, Vinland, Atlantis and many more.
>>25388910tell me something I don't know
>>25388129I had multiple goon sessions yesterday. I certainly came, but at what cost?
Came yesterday from the humiliation of being unable to get this girthy dudes cock in my mouth. He was trying to stuff it in(unsuccessfully) and I just nutted.Had to give him a handy.
>>25388129The best way to find out if you're gay is to read descriptions of hot males. If you want to be him, you're straight. If you want him to rape you anally, you're also straight.
>>25388947what if you want to rape him
>>25388945What happened to you as a kid is not your fault.
>>25388957I wish I had some crazy backstory that justified my mental illness. Nothing happened to me, just ended up liking cock.
>>25388966how big is your cock? I got a feeling that the lesser blessed folk have a tendency to partake in such obscenities to compensate for what they lack
>>25388971You would be correct3.2 inches
>>25388974Nice, I'm telling you guys I'm so freaking smart!Also I'm sorry b :/ But it sounds like you found something you enjoy so I'm happy for you :)
my partner cut my name into his arm recently during some sort of neurotic episode and I feel intensely repulsed by it in a way that's hard to explain. For one, it could be read as a threat to self-harm further if I ever leave him, which is blatantly manipulative. But I've talked to him about his motivation for it and it seems like it was a show of devotion because he doesn't feel like he has anything else to offer. I don't want to date a man who sees himself that way and acts accordingly. But it would ruin him if we broke up. I just don't know what to do. It feels like I'm going from actually liking him to just dating him based on pity. I don't know if I can ever communicate that to him.
>>25389026Sounds like a retard. Break up, you are probably a foid, so you'll find someone else in no time.
>>25389026Are you a man or woman? This will allow me to know whether you deserve sympathy or not.
>>25389040What difference does that make?
>>25389041Answer the question.
>>25389026I don’t envy your situation. If you want to stay with him get him therapy or something. And more importantly get him hobbies or something that he can work on and build self-confidence/worth independent of you.
>>25389043Male.
>>25388954Then you’re gay
Gay people have to be living in shame.How are you as a man getting railed in your ass and still walk around like you're a regular person.Parents feel shame for you and the rest are weirded out. Yes even your ''allies''
You dig in places til your fingers bleedSpread the infection where you spill your seedI can't remember what she came here forI can't remember much of anything anymore
>>25389060What about the ones doing the railing without getting railed?
>>25389062The last line sucks, change it
>>25388702People would say it's rather edgy and corny, I think... It's like 20th century literature
>>25389026Dump him. Anyone that gets to the point of doing such thing is a time bomb
>>25389071I had an ex girlfriend who carved my name into her leg and used to have scene bitches do the same with my noise/ambient projects on MySpace.
>>25389065I think its okay
>>25389039Man, I hate how easy it is for foids just to get into one relationship after another
>>25389063Less so but gross in it's own way. Cleaning poo from your dick must be a uniquely disgusting moment
gonna watch a movieI love watching movies every late evening
I put googly eyes and pipe cleaners in my dooky of make little figurines.
>>25388129I got out of the shower and looked in the mirror and I was hard for no reason. I started touching myself and I kept looking at my own face while I did it. I came all over my hand and some of it dripped onto my thigh. I wiped my hand on the towel on the floor and I felt like an idiot because I should've aimed my penis into the sink like usual.
Fat people have had it too good for too long. Having a BMI over 30 should be punishable under the law.
>>25389109Why do you like it?It sounds cheap to me, like anon is ending his mad ranting too early.
i got this really bad ingrown hair on my inner thigh like two weeks ago. figured it would go away on its own but it just kept getting worse. last night i finally decided to deal with it. i sat on the bathroom floor with a needle and some tweezers and started digging around. the smell hit me before i even got the hair out. that weird sweet rot smell. i kept going anyway. blood and pus started oozing out and i had to wipe it with toilet paper like five times. finally got the hair out and a chunk of something came with it. i dont know what it was. i flushed it down the toilet and put a bandaid on it. its still red and swollen this morning. lol. prob should have gone to a doctor but who can afford that?
This atheistic is what I want every fertile promiscuous young woman to look like.Every woman who doesnt fall into that category must wear ponytails, or a bag preferably
>>25389249>atheisticI misspelled aesthetic... Right now I don't deserve a fertile promiscuous young woman that looks like this.I must become better, cultivate myself to higher levels. Such mistakes are beyond the pale, and I will not allow them
>>25389252i opened your pic and nutted in like 2 minutes lmao. came all over my hand and some got on my desk. still thinking about her expression desu. thanks for the material
Company hasn't gotten back to me yet. I'm crushed because I think I won't get the job now and will be stuck in underemployment hell for months or even years. It feels like every few weeks I hear about layoffs occurring, yet the system keeps on churning along and there's no catharsis. I was really hoping that Iran would inflict serious harm on us, but nope, the negative effects are going to manifest itself over a long stretch of time, and we're just going to take it.
>>25389260yea she is a baddie alright
I miss you.
>>25389252>>25389249Gooklovers are insane. No selff respecting gook would ever simp over a bitch that looks like that but thanks to technology you have white simps half the world away thirsting over mid hoes.
>>25389252Well most chinks are atheists generally speaking
>>25389276Bro its the aura that carries. The mad charisma flowing through. Ya autists can't appreciate subtleties >>25389279I think that came off better in ya head
Every single time I open this thread, without fail, it's like stepping into a sewer and watching sewage flow by.
>>25389296you dont mean that, stop being tsundere (๑´• .̫ •ू`๑)
>>25389296you wanted anonymous and consequence free place for people to announce their thoughts. Seeing the worst humanity has to offer is the price of it.
Not really another good thread to use for this question, since I think the philology thread probably doesn't want English.What is the "best" (read: loftiest-sounding poetical) English translation of Homer? I read the first line of several translations on Wikipedia, and Pope's seemed the most "fun," but I saw other people shitting on his version. I'm reading Fagles now, but it's just so damned contemporary.
Why are my eyes stinging? Is there smoke in the air?
Every time a random burner account messages me part of me always hopes it could be you.

For about two years, off and on, I've been imagining a romantic life with this girl at work, based on her low-quality profile pic. We work remotely, but I think she lives in my city or the next one over. I don't know what her body looks like at all, so I alternate between imagining her skinny with DFC or with cowtits and a somewhat chubby belly. Anyway, the point is I finally had a dream about her last night, and it was pretty cute. I woke up because I had to pee, before we could do anything sexy in the dream.
>>25388541Technically, yes, because you had the misfortune of being conceived, being carried to term, being born, and surviving till today. Really, our parents should not have conceived us without our consent, as their parents shouldn't have, and theirs, and so on, and so on.If you choose to believe in God, you can blame Him for creating Man out of nothing, and you can at least curse him for all your days until you organize the resources you need to become an hero. I find it's far more depressing to believe man evolved from ape, because it means consciousness, that thing which plagues us, was a mutation meant as an adaptation for survival. Why would the self-awareness that makes us yearn for death be an evolutionary advantage?
>>25388129You get to a point in developping your own independant views where you can hardly say anything without strucking people's nerves in a way they won't even feel like it's worth arguing with you, but, I have come to the conclusion that reading books can make you seriously retarded.
>>25389343Repeating what you've read as if they're your own thoughts is retarded. Reading critically is highly effective at becoming an autismal megalomaniac.
>>25389309Definitely Pope. It's considered an achievement of English poetry in itself, as much or more a work of Pope's than of Homer's. People shit on it either because it's too old fashioned for them, they don't like rhyming couplet for whatever reason, or because it's not really a good 'literal' translation of Homer, but it's pretty universally considered to be the greatest, most high-brow poetic version in English. I think Emily Wilson even says in one of her introductions that it's her favorite translation, which I found funny.Honorable mentions for Chapman, whose translation feels more Shakespearian, and Fitzgerald, whose translation is definitely more contemporary, but more poetic and flourished than someone like Fagles. Fitzgerald is probably my personal favorite.
woke up this morning with a boner so hard i thought i was gonna break it. had to piss real bad too but i couldnt move without feeling like i was gonna cum. so i just lay there for like five minutes trying to think about baseball and dead grandmas and shit. didnt work. ended up jerking off into my own hand and it went everywhere. all over my stomach and chest and a little bit got in my belly button. i just lay there for a while covered in my own cum and thought about how this is what my life has become. then i wiped it off with a dirty tshirt and went to make coffee. thats my life
>>25389350Reading is degenerate, look it up. In Assyrian times, the Babylonians considered themselves more refined and more literate than the muscular Persians who came to conquer them.Makedonian Greece was despised as uneducated and Barbarian by the more educated Southern Greeks. Guess who came to conquer Asia?The Germanic conquerors of Italy did not care for literature one bit. That was the job of the thralls and the native Romans.I am stupefied by this modern dogma that being educated is somehow a token for dominating others. The most superficial book about the ancient slaves states clearly that some of them were extremely educated and even if there isn't a negative correlation between the level of education and social status, there isn't a positive one either.
>>25389355Unironically, my life before I stopped being a total fuckup. Only a champ like you can hit rock bottom as hard as you do, always remember that.
My cum tastes like gravy.
>>25389363History schmistory; education, intellegence and aptitude are seperate categories. Reading doesnt make you educated, synthesizing works into a collective and unified position then refuting it, repeatedly, does. You're mostly talking about petty tyrants living vicariously through their education, which is true, but reading in and of itself is neutral when done critically. Most people lack that capacity.
Anyone got tips for making cum smell less weird? mine has this weird odor lately like bleach or something and my girlfriend mentioned it and now I can't stop thinking about it. I eat pretty healthy, so I don't know what the issue is. maybe it's just how it is. but if there's some trick to making it smell better, I would love to know so I can stop being self-conscious about it.
>>25389378Reading is inherently dégénérative when it interferes with the développement of the physical faculties.
Two for the Gospel-makersOne for the other Son of Thunder One for the swordsman, at the right-board, after;to make him feel afloat. One for the man from Kerioth,seven for the rest in order.
>>25389382And why would it do that?
>>25388129couple weeks ago i was on the couch jerking off and my dog came over and started licking my hand.
>>25388129Just read in a book that the concept of 'wrong' shan't be applied to études of histoire because statements that could have happened are as représentative of the passé as the ones that actually did happen.Wow, I have had an intuition about this for years now and the fact that this auteur, who btw is a leftie critical of the conquête of the American sauvages (who were cannibales who totally deserved getting conquered by the conquistadores) aknowledges this fact makes him at least moderament based.
>>25389386Uh'mm because you're sitting on the couch instead of jogging outside or doing physical training?
>>25389395There's time to sit and read, and time to smash rocks. Reading doesnt make you weak, being afraid of suffering does.
>>25389397It doesn't but it should be enjoyed with caution, much like alcohol. I hardly think there's many professors like me who can read books without getting damaged or morally corrupted.
>>25389392>white "people"
>>25389380pineapple juice works but you gotta drink a lot of it. also if you eat a lot of asparagus or drink a lot of beer it makes it worse. my ex said the same thing to me once. i just stopped caring about it.
>>25389369I tasted my own once. Just to see what the deal was. It was salty and kinda thick. Not something I'd go out of my way for again.

I didn’t stop being dragged around in life until I was like 27 (current age) and even then I am still dependent on a lot of people and never lived on my own.
>>25389430Yetis.

>>25389469What tf is that supposed to mean? Do you seriously think I mean that word in some sort of performative sense instead of just being a natural introvert?
Well, my grandma just passed. Fug.
>>25389485Hey Siri play "Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer"
>>25388129I just realized that the majority of the population is massively retarded. I don't mean just dumb and cognitively stupid, I mean mentally damaged to an otherworldly extent. Assimilating themselves as much as possible to the habits of the miserable rabble: adopting the fine culture, getting tons of stds: merit of a socially successful individual, getting drunk and high and smoking otherworldly amounts of weed and alcohol: doing the bare minimum for a successful weekend.
>>25389487The Aryan element in the European sociétés is slowly but surely vanishing. With Aryan I don't mean white but a particularly noble version of European. Like not a literal nobleman but a person presenting noble qualities. Today a nearly extinct species, the government that they have left us is slowly being replaced by the ignoble ideas of untermensch. This leads to the slow thirdworldization of European countries. Even without migrants this would have happened, though in a way much less apparent for homogenous countries are always less thirdwordie than multi-cultural ones.
>>25389492Delightful, but reindeer in july are rare where I live. Mostly I'm having a beer about it. Maybe two.
>>25389494This nigga bitching about being too smrt4u and used two colons in a sentence. Perhaps if you had more fun your punctuation and prose would improve The reality is the average person isnt beige, they have all sorts of peaks and valleys to their character. Only in aggregate can a hypothetical experience be normalized, but no one actually lives like that. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. Everyone has insight and ability. Through a harsh lens anyone can be unremarkable. That being said, you are statistically "average"; that's the nature of the concept. Not your achievement or ability, but the combination of your existence, from a statistical perspective.Thinking you are greater is quaint. Thinking you are lesser is equally quaint. You just are, and I suggest veing lwss judgemental.
I purported myself "woman-hater"To my brother, I, defiant of man-eaterI says to him: "Why not a mutual endeavour?--Shall you pay, you, for the whole vacationWith her?"

LovingAnd expecting, and deriding shoulders dour'd-- scold'd.
>>25389524Am I being judgmental when I say that every third person has an std? That's every third person you interact with on a day to day basis. People who have fully embraced hook up culture and engage in activities just because a specific subset of the population considers it to be 'cool'.
>>25389548The only time i ever got an std was when i fucked a nigette. Let that be a lesson to you young trvecel.
>>25389552> Look at me I'm a racist AND i plapped one of those n**sLooks like an incurable case of highly advanced, metastazing turbonormitis.
>>25389548Yup. Who cares? That isnt their only defining feature. That doesnt characterize the totality of their existence. You dont like it, sure, but it wouldnt discount their ability to be a virtuoso or outlier in other aspects.That's the thing about your math: it's wrong. You're biased towards variables you care about and discount variables you dont. Everyone does. So, appreciate things for their positive qualities in moderation. Why? Well, seems like you want other people to appreciate yours.
>>25389559Hamas of slaves without probity, without shame, ready to accept all turpitudes from the despotic governments that they vote.
>>25389561And you're a platitudinous faggot with weak purple prose and poor voice. Should I judge you on that alone, what you've posted here, or are there other things I should consider?Me personally, judge me as you will. I'm more than competent within my lane, and I appreciate what I have to the extent that I have it.
>>25389548Not impugning, but why do people who have herpes always look like that? I know a few people who have herpes, and they all look the same -- piercings, strange partially shaved hairstyles, usually some gender shit going on, weird visible tattoos, ripped mismatched clothing, etc.
>>25388129Came into a water bottle once. Forgot about it and left it on my desk for a week. Opened it up to take a drink and smelled it before I saw it. Just cloudy and sour. Poured it down the sink and washed the bottle out with dish soap. I still use that water bottle.
>>25389565I'm not even posing as someone better. In that case, my commentry would be metaphorical only. Look at it more like this: many teenagers realize that adults have social privileges and consequently mimic behaviours that they deem to be adult presenting, in hopes of getting social privilege. And then they seek all kinds of things, like sex and cigarettes and drugs and tons of money and everything else, because they think it gets them social privilege. That's civilized man, and most people are reduced to that miserable state by the time they're 20-25 years of age, across all classes and the results this has on the individual are disastrous. It has the power of turning you into a mentally handicapped retard who looks at everything from the pov of his own advantage or worse, from how many social privileges and VIP credit score that is going to get him. I would bé arrogant if I said that I'm exempt from this rule. It is a vice that plagues everyone, in varying degrees.
>>25389260Yeah I came to that pic too lol. Grabbed my dick and went at it for like 5 minutes. Blew my load all over my keyboard and had to wipe it off with my shirt after. Still worth it.
>>25389260I saw that pic and didn't even last two minutes. I came on my hand and just stared at it.
>>25389576So there were other things to consider. There are two key points of subtext in this post: you think your insight is novel, and you didn't particularly enjoy my criticism. The reality is that life isnt a videogame. Min/maxing your sliders does not produce exponential dividends in effectiveness. Plenty of great human beings drank and smoke. Plenty of awful ones didn't. And the criticism extends to every aspect of humanity. What you're looking at is the hyperreal. What I'm describing is an aspirational answer to the absurdity of modernity, where you arent passive to the nature of your fellow man, but you accept them and assign utility relative to their capacity in spite of it. I know a guy if I need someone stabbed. I know a guy if I want to clean a park. I know a guy if I need help with my car, or help making bread, and the relationship we have is mutually beneficial, not because of a material exchange, but because I give them the ability to do what they do best, then appreciate the fact that it's something I can't do by reciprocating any way I can.The choice is yours. You cannot percieve reality beyond the limits of your subjectivity without the intersubjective collective, and even then your observations will always be incomplete. So instead of being a stick in the mud, have a beer if you want to. Dont if you dont. Do good in spite of your flaws. Do bad if you feel you must. The nature of your existence is yours to determine, but how people interpret the extension of your will is exclusively up to other people.
I personally can not relate to anyone who actually uses non anonymous forums. I always found all forums that require accounts peer pressuring if not outright enforcing hive mentality. You say anything mildly controversial? Ignored, hidden, downvoted to oblivion and if really unlucky you get outright shunned and even banned.
>>25389591> you think your insight is novel,No I don't, you're just projecting your own insécurités. I am paraphrasing a collection of ancient and modern authors.> Plenty of great human beings drank and smoke. Plenty of awful ones didn't. I started smoking weed and cigarettes when I was 13 you dipshit. First drunker at the age of 14. I grew up with that crap thinking it's normal. No, it's not good for you, it's not romantic and it will fuck you up completely if you do it long enough.> What I'm describing is an aspirational answer to the absurdity of modernity, where you arent passive to the nature of your fellow man, but you accept them and assign utility relative to their capacity in spite of itWe are in late stage Assyrian times. De saying civilization. The tyrannical phase of Plato's Republic. Interestingly enough he stated that every addict is a tyrant. Point blank.> You cannot percieve reality beyond the limits of your subjectivity without the intersubjective collective, and even then your observations will always be incomplete. SWords words words. Lemme give you advice, use normal people words if you want to come across as knowledgeable. Sounds like you're just vomiting whatever [insert current tyrannic leadership] biased bullshit you picked up from a modern newspaper.
>>25389599I feel that, and I fear I'm too old to ever change. The worst part? If you're competent, but anonymous, the natural immune response is to purge you because you threaten the status quo. Writing communities are particularly terrible for this.
>>25389575Cumming in the shower again. Just let it wash down the drain. No cleanup.

Is cum good for the skin?
The most dead this board has ever been is right now. Not even 150 threads in the archive.
>>25389603Remember: this is who you're choosing to be. How is the audience supossed to interpret this post? How did you think I would respond? I don't think you thought about it at all. Maybe, instead of thinking I'm an idiot, you should read some more "modern" philosophy. Like Baudrillard, for example.
I have to go cum. Brb.
>>25389650I have skimmed the librairies, the bookshops, the thriftstores of my town like no other. I felt like a madman searching for gold and diamonds on a giant pile of shit. My search was absolutely unsuccessful.That besides I think my post has made me look like a man of the world who speaks on the matters that he speaks on with the authority of experience.Also I had two beers and a shot of egg whiskey or whatever you weirdos call that. I am high enough to post here.But I also ran for a whole hour in the forest. Gotta keep that warlike spirit alive. What do you have to speak for yourself?Probably nothing that's why you hit me with that ad hominem tehee
Let’s see, we got ten rednecks, six greenhorns, and a hundred and forty four white claws.
>>25389658Goddamn.Why do you think you're a man of the world and an authority of experience? I asked you a question about second order reasoning, your premeditated understanding of other perspectives, and you spoke only of yourself; an unsuccessful small town pooper scooper. Not only that, you assumed I have nothing to show for myself when it should have been immediately obvious I'm familiar with post-structural political theory and philosophy, then discussed how I apply it to my every day life to solve the problems you were bitching about.You know what I can speak of? Legacy, and a willingness to help even an anonymous charlatan having moment. But really, you should help yourself. If you can.
Who said cum?
>>25389694I feel like you're pretentious. Plato has a simpler language than you do. All the greats did. They weren't appealing to the taste of a degraded, self-obsessed upper class. More importantly, they weren't morally corrupt to the bone, wich is always the case with jocks like you. You may have a wide range of knowledge, but you have never even conceived the idea of virtue. I hardly believe that you even have a real concept there of. Nothing surprises you, nothing takes you off guard, used as you are to all the scandalous ways of life.Not only that, you have the condescendance to say you're trying to 'help' me. Pal, you have no idea that you're dealing with a contemporary megamind, do you.
>>25389336I've done that too, built up a whole life with someone from a profile pic and a few work chats. It's just your brain trying to fill the gap with something. I usually just jerk off and the fantasy loses its grip for a while. It still keeps coming back though.
>>25389650The problem with this whole exchange is that you're both arguing past each other. One of you is trying to establish dominance through abstraction, the other through lived experience. Neither approach is wrong but neither is complete. I've spent enough time in this thread to see the same pattern repeat itself: someone posts a half-baked philosophical take, someone else calls them a pretentious faggot, and then they spend twenty posts trying to prove who's the bigger intellectual. It's exhausting and it's why this board is dying. The old /lit/ had actual discussions, not just people measuring their dicks with paragraphs. I jerked off to a picture of a woman's ankle in a Victorian novel once (came into my underwear and the underwear hardened from the cum) and it made me understand aesthetics better than any of this crap. The point is that genuine engagement is rare here and everyone's too busy performing to notice they're not actually saying anything.
>>25389630The board feels dead because everyone's either in other threads or just lurking. I've noticed it too. I can sit here for like ten minutes refreshing and nothing new shows up. It's kind of peaceful though. No one yelling about politics or posting bait. Just quiet. I jerked off earlier while I was waiting and came on my own stomach. Didn't even bother cleaning it up right away. Just let it sit there while I scrolled. That's the kind of energy this thread has now. Low effort, low stakes, just existing. I love to cum.
>>25389703You do realize I outlined an entire system of utilitarian ethics predicated on the personal responsibility of a subjective entity with agency contributing to the improvement of a higher order of experience, right? Seems you lost the plot entiely at this point, poop scooper.Nothing surprises me because you arent surprising. And I'm condescending because I pity you. You could be so much more if you stopped being a self absorbed faggot writing terrible prose after two beers and a joint. You are who you are, and stop saying dumbass things you dont understand for internet cool points. Have you actually read Plato? And maybe by insulting you it might inspire you to be better, even if it's just to tell me to fuck off more effectively.>>25389713Oh wise cum anon, perhaps everything is as it always was, and in our persistent cycles of decay and rebirth pruning necessarily preceeds a growth? So too shall we grow as we reap what was sown, and so too will be shown that which was already known: bananaphone.

Literature & reading are such a core part of my identity, and I love reading so much that it feels alienating just not being able to bring up the subject among anybody I know. It's a niche hobby, I know: I've accepted that. But it feels shitty sometimes.
I'm gay
I read In Parenthesis finally. The part where they have to attack and start dying made me cry like a baby for some reason.
I wanted to learn a second language but I didn’t like any of the other ones so I learned English again and now I’m schizophrenic
Drinking a cooler.

I'm a bit upset because I've always loved reading, but reading poetry makes me feel like a dumb. I love reading poetry, but understanding some of the stuff seems beyond my ken or that I'm forming the wrong view.
I don't know how long I will be able to keep going
>>25389352Alright, I'll get the Pope first. Or second, I guess, since I've had Fagles first.What I'm understanding is that Pope's translation is like the King James Bible in the sense that it's a new work of literature using a classic foundation as a basis. Reading the Vulgate Bible is enjoyable for different reasons than the KJV, just as Fagles and presumably Pope have their own different things going on.I'll probably check out Chapman as well, anyway. Looks like the Wordsworth version is Chapman, so that's funny.Thanks, anon.
>>25389990I love genetics and I appreciate your generosity. But I don't care for make-believe fantasy, even if its "based on reality", so I'm going to play some battlefield 6 instead
>>25389996lots of people feel the same way about artwork. the first step to 'getting it' is realizing its not something anyone entirely 'gets'. poetic ambiguity isnt just a stylistic overlay used encrypt meaning. the meaning itself is often ambiguous and amorphous to begin with and hence expressible only in ambiguous ways. enjoy it like music or film, dont feel you need to solve it like a crossword.

Went to the pool today, the power went out because of a nearby fire and they kicked everybody out and closed. We ended up going to the local reservoir and swimming there for three or four hours but as soon as I get home I learn that the reservoir is under a blue-green algae cyanobacteria warning and it's also supposedly supposed to be off limits because of airflights for water to fight the fires.There was no posted "keep out" and the roads in weren't blocked off and there were people boating and some swimming. I only learned all this after reading a post on the town Facebook page asking if the reservoir was good to swim. Various people said "NO, IT'S CLOSED, STAY OUT, YOU WILL DIE!!" others said "no it's closed for water brigade and you WILL go to jail!"I do a single Google search and it says that there IS a bloom on but it's not reached toxic levels and it's generally safe for people to swim just so long as you don't swallow the water.TL;DR: Why are people like this?
The white house spent all that money to get balogun out of gay baby jail and he can't even score a single damned goalWhat a waste of effort
>>25390084Belgium did play really well, they were so fluid in their attacks and just walked through the US defense while the Americans were start and stop and kept making mistakes.

>>25388567Frogs are repulsive. Maybe it's a fobia of some kind, I don't know. I'm not afraid of them, they just gross me out like hell. Only frogs though, salamanders, snakes, etc. nothing, I could hold them, pet them. They're just like any other animal. But frogs, they're slimy, unpredictable and just look mean. It's weird.
>>25388129tonight i will die as im only a thought, that will remain until my eyes close and open them the next day
