As I reach a certain age, I perceive a sense of monotony in various forms of entertainment, including books, anime, films, television series, and the incessant drama found online.

Having watched thousands of movies and hundreds of television shows, read hundreds of books, and played thousands of games over my two decades of internet usage, I find myself anticipating every plot twist, betrayal, and the all-too-frequent instances of characters making retard decisions that lead to their downfall, alongside the unending cycle of drama and political discourse.
Feel like i am in a time loop, what to do now ?

>>25482524
Are you a sort of quasi autistic loner like me? If so, then it may be time to discover the fun of having friends and doing things IRL with them. I'm not being sarcastic. There's also "great" and "difficult" literature which if you haven't read any before will provide you with hours and hours of interestment. But either way you probably need to challenge yourself somehow.

I think that we're finding ways to integrate technology into every facet of life. more and more, every thought, every action, every moment of our lives are dictated and experienced through some screen or device. this is all I see when I go outside, in every person, in every place. I don't know anyone without the brainrot. I used to find comfort in these people. now I am most comfortable in my writing and in my books and as far away from civilization as I can manage. I don't know what this is doing to me. I don't want to be an outcast, but I'm just not content being a part of that crowd. and I am afraid. I fear for the future, for all of us. but I fear for myself more.

I think I should move.

A fellow reading the early sections of my big story described the work as "Proustian" and I feel like he doesn't appreciate what a tremendous complement that is for me.

The story has action, drama, chaos, ruin, all of that, over and over, time after time. But in the very beginnings I deliberately made things slow. I wanted you to mediate on my characters as they were, normal and ordinary, before I hit you with their supernatural grandeur. I wanted you to get to know my characters in their hearts, before I revealed that they were the most powerful creatures on the face of the Earth.

And the whole story is Proustian, really, because we are never at a loss for the inner lives of these characters, nor any characters, in this story. The story is massive and so are they. Every main character's personality is huge, and the story is huge to contain it all.

Yes. I am literally the only one who means it when I say women don’t look like that. This goes back to my original point, we are copying the tv, that bitch back there saw it fit to unknowingly attack my wife over the mere suggestion I could desire women who doesn’t wear makeup and succeed at finding them. Stupid bitch I’m saying i like your real face, and you actually received my pressure to quit using makeup enough to have to say ‘I’m not going to’.

What's the appeal of laying down on one of those floating lounge in a pool? You can do that with a regular long chair that they have around the pool, or, hell, in a park, or at home!

Well what I’m wondering is does Christ’s teachings really include protective measures against out-religion malefactors in Rome-sized empires, or is that type of thing more of a Medieval development that grew with early Nationalism and a sort of separate category of enforcement? As for the Jews the science on removing them is you have to go for them all at once and definitely not miss, so if you ask why we haven’t done that, how about you just check history and see what happens when you try. Barring successful Hitler operations, you do in fact have to live with them

I am going to keep it simple but I can't fuck you while you're fingering yourself and I generally take this particular position in order to put my dick in you, so when I'm poking the back of your hands which are inside and covering your pussy with my dick and its losing flaccidity, I assume after all the foreplay you've just decided you were going to masturbate to completion without talking to me for five minutes, which is what you did, and you were making the pussy used up so I just laid on the bed with you while you did that, and then you get cold and call me unreciprocal. You're mad now but once things clear up I'll be able to explain that to you and you might see where you mistakenly just fucking jacked yourself off when I was trying to fuck you. For what its worth I realize I could have pulled your hands out in what would have become an honest hatefuck, but the transition from what we were doing to what I would have to do to make this happen, was unarousing in the sight of honest to god shameless female gooning
