You guys think there's such a thing as glowie twink honeypots who try to seduce influential gay politicians and businessmen?
>>25645780I think you're mentally unwell and should seek help. All the best and so forth good luck crawling around and if you end up shooting me when you sperg out, fuck you.
>>25645685 #Demons probably do not exist. I just do anything really. But I cannot be around others because then I become angry again. Sp, maybe the demons exist inside other people and our qorld is actually thoroughly corrupted. Maybe God wants me to be his instrument of suffering. You never know.

Oh, Oh, baby you can walk, you can talk just like me.
I just want someone to talk to about the books they read that is not a retarded middle aged women that exclusively reads Harry Potter YA slop or gooner """literature"""I don't even want to hear "intelligent takes", just someone that reads books. No one in my life reads anymore. I'm not that articulate but at least I want someone I can talk to about the recent books I read and listen to someone about the recent books they read, give and receive recommendations. Truly chose a hobby for asocial shut ins I'm losing my mind slowly but surelyAt least my children will grow up to be readers so I can force them to read my recommendations
>>25645810You talk about me in the third person as though I am not here
>>25645805That was very loud. Thank you for your service.

>>25645821truly an ironic twist of fate
I came in contact by accident with a reality of AI-loving, money-hungry pothead bohemians who try everything they can to make their way anywhere by hustling, brown-nosing, faking-it-till-they-make-it, talking shit about their betters, and feeding bullshit to everyone nonstop; all in this lazy but desperate pursuit of easy success because they lack talent, work ethic, intellect, creativity, honesty, humility and every other human quality, and I've never felt so fucking disgusted in my entire life. Such nauseating turbo nigger behavior it's unreal. The most repulsive shit I've ever seen.Now I realize that no matter how low my self-esteem and how fucked my direction in life, I was naturally sheltered from these lowlives throughout my existence and will continue to be, because I'm unironically superior in every way, though I'm appalled that I even crossed paths with this walking garbage for a second due to naivete and I had to correct course.If you have a poor opinion of yourself just remember these people actually exist and they're far more sad and pathetic than you can imagine. Holy fucking shit.

>>25645802Are you the guy in the other thread that was crawling around on the floor to stave off your desire to kill people? The crawling around on the floor thing is so non-specific and still gruesomely threatening lolI hope you don't slaughter some hooker and revel in her death but I think you might. Pretty not good overall Anyway I got my coffee in me and I can feel the intestines racking up and getting ready to FIRE one out. Maybe went a little heavy with the pysllium husk in last night's protein shake, feels like I'm gonna fill the toilet I use for shitting in the spare room up to the brim.

>>25645820>On another shelf was a ceramic dish that held a silver wristwatch and two rings: a silver horseshoe with fake rubies that he put on his left index finger, and a silver horseshoe with fake diamonds that he put on his right. He took off his sweats, set them under the covers of the bed, and dressed in a pair of Levi's and a black and red plaid Pendleton wool shirt. He brushed his teeth and, when the water had heated, made instant coffee. >>A butterscotch blonde Telecaster sat under his bed, and leaned against a wall was a classical six string guitar with a dented back he'd gotten from a thrift shop in Las Vegas. At a Formica table near the wood stove he worked on a song called "The Night the Primadon a Club Burned Down," the lyrics written in a spiral notebook. There were a system of these notebooks attached in a cardboard box in the corner of the room. Above the lyrics he has scribbled "Uncle Vern, swimming in the river, Vern and Gail, Primadonna Club," and a list of dates he had worked on the song.From Willie Vlautin's The Horse.

In some strange, fucked up way I'm thankful for the shit she put me through because now I deeply, intuitively understand that it is within my own best interest to never even attempt to love anyone ever again for as long as I fucking live. I no longer even have the desire to do so and the insufferable endless longing that I've experienced my entire life is now finally, extinct. I no longer fear dying alone, there was never a point in time that I was ever not alone, relationship or not. The scales have fallen from my eyes. There is no way to be naive about love anymore.Hallelujah.
>>25645908Well, sorry anon, but I don't imagine myself as patrick bateman. My urge is more like that of an orc.

Having sex without birth control is next level. The nut when you get her pregnant is better than any kinky sex you can imagine. BDSM or whatever is child's play compared to that.
>>25645991>The nut when you get her pregnantBut you can only know that way after the fact. Or do you mean just having the risk of pregnancy hang overhead?
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Thy NameThy will be done on Earth as it is in heavenGive us today our daily breadForgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against usLead us not into temptation but deliver us from evilFor Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the gloryForever and everAmen

I've most likely played Dota with someone who's now died in Ukraine at some point.
I miss you. Are you really going to avoid me forever?
>>25645994The risk is one thing, that is also a rush. So far I got my wife pregnant twice. First time I knew the risk, second time I knew she got pregnant fast. And the second time I just knew it was a bullseye.
>>25645997Amen>>25645998I wish I knew
Awkwardly traded smiles and glances at the most gorgeous girl at the bus stop earlier because, as much as we wanted to approach, neither of us knew what to say. Sad. Now to spend all week scheming up a good line and hope she's there at the same time next Tuesday.
>>25645998Get a new perspective, obviously. The one you have is clearly shit.
Thinkin bout my oneitis.
>>25646007not really an option for me since I bang hookers mostly and there's too high risk of stds and other shit
>>25646032I get that. Hookers bring a different type of risk that makes it exciting.I lost my virginity to a hooker
>>25645961Well, sorry anon, but I am not fat but actually fitter than 80% of the anons who post here give-or-take. I get that when people feel threatened, even when there is no threat, they feel the urge to try and diminish it with humiliation and other such delusions, but you should honestly consider violent ideations instead. Trust me, been there done that.
^ Gayest Post on 4chan Award
>>25646023>your perspective doesn't give you instant pleasure therefore it is shitMaybe it is true, though? Like, maybe anon has a standard which the world fails to live up to consistently. And honestly, he's not the only one.
>>25646071Takes one to know one, I guess. And I suppose I accept your concession.
>>25646072Then anon's standard is dumb.
Had a long 1on1 with my counselor at the clinic today, and when we talked about my romantic life, he said I should be using my looks to go after older women with money instead of younger girls. Decisions, decisions...
>>25646021It's amazing how all it takes for you is a pretty face. Meaning that if she were brutalized, you would lose all interest in her.That's profound. I know because I have rejected ugly women.
>>25646076>if it is true, then his standard is dumbOk? Why?
>>25646079I mean she was a stranger. Not like I could have met her personality first lol.
>>25646077So he's saying you look good enough for old ladies but not for girls your age, so you might as well try to get some money out of it? That's pretty good counseling.
>>25646072Why the fuck would you expect the world to live up to your standard? Actually, scratch that. My new standard is that all the women I want to fuck want to fuck me even harder. That's my standard. Cough it up @the world.
>>25646076Tell that to the legions of progressives screaming about how the world is being destroyed by patriarchal white supremacist billionaires, not to us.
>>25646088Now you're just being hysterical. Seem to not handle criticism well. Idk, maybe you have npd or something.
>>25646085Are you saying that women who have good personalities but bad looks are invisible to you?
>>25646096...are you even listening to me? I'm saying when you come across a stranger, their looks are the only thing you know about them, so all you have is whether they're attractive or not. Now, I could be attracted to a girl with a great personality and comely looks, but see, since I would know her personality, she wouldn't be a stranger! You get it now?
>>25646094Way to engage the point head on. Your bravery could only be expressed as esoteric teachings.
>>25646101Use your head for a second, coombrain. The only reason you even took notice of this woman was because of her looks, not her personality. Saying "but I could be attracted to an ugly woman with good personality because I know her!" Is not really relevant here because you just presume that you know her. But you aren't born with knowledge of other people, you need interest first.
>>25646110You are the king of the sophists. YOU CAN"T NOTICE A STRANGER FOR ANYTHING BUT THEIR LOOKS BECAUSE IF YOU KNEW THEIR PERSONALITY THEY WOULDNT BE A STRANGER!!!!!! Ergo, you can only be interested in a stranger because of their looks.
I want "boo-hoo, women" posters killed or at the very least, barred from posting.
some very low-level sparring going on in the wyt right now
>>25646108Saying >"Why have standards!? I think that people who I want to fuck want to fuck me!!!"Is not a "point." It's just retardation from a clearly angry person.
>>25645965Funny, but no.
>>25646116I now understand why the Athenians sentenced Socrates to death. I've never encountered such depths of sophistry before.
>>25646114No. But romantically, that is most often the case. You posted about her looks and convinced yourself that she wanted to say something but didn't know what to say. Which is also pretty weird.>>25646116What can I say, it is incredibly easy to tilt anons. All you have to do is not automatically please them and their entitled asses go ballistic.
>>25646124I also understand why the mongols killed men by dancing on their bodies.
>>25646117>what does ridiculing having a standard for the world have anything to do with having a standard for the world? HMMM?! ANGRY PERSON!!Must be one of them riddles.
>>25646125I mean she kept looking over like either she wanted to say something or wanted me to, and this is after we smiled at each other as I first walked over. What's weird about recognizing a missed opportunity? These things do happen.
>>25646128Not all standards are comparable. And you are not being very stoic yourself, considering how angry you get at the thoughts of others. That is a standard as well, but again, not all are comparable.You have also not explained how that anon's perspective is bad or demonstrated bow it is actually incredibly easy for a clearly depressed person to simply flip a switch and change their perspective, or how that would even give them happiness. You seem to just be inept at understanding other people.
>>25646133Idk. Maybe she was worried that you were going to rape her or something.
>>25646138Yeah, yeah, no one on /lit/ could possibly be hot. I'd say say that to my face but you'd probably end up falling in love. Have a good one.
>>25646135A standard is a standard is a standard. What the fuck are you talking about? Also, the switch is the shift in perspective. I am sorry to hear you don't know how to do that or really think critically apparently. Life's going to be hard.
>>25646082Because holding the world to an impossible standard and then getting mad when it necessarily fails to live up to it is just a recipe for making yourself needlessly upset constantly
>>25646145>A standard is a standard is a standard. What the fuck are you talking about?Are you talking to yourself here?Also, the point about flipping a switch was what I was criticizing. It isn't so easy as that for most people to simply be, I suppose, mindless hedonists like yourself who has no standard whatsoever. Like, what are you even thinking? Do you think that you should also not let it bother you if your house burns down or something? Probably not. I doubt you can even form an idea that lasts longer than five seconds, judging by how you respond.
>>25646143post face
>>25646148Ok. And what standard is impossible? Like, the shit that Jesus said or?
>>25646143Don't worry anon, maybe some other guy has already fallen in love with you. In fact, maybe he even convinced himself that you were into him as well.
A lot of quality midwit ownage in this thread.

4chan is full of the dumbest motherfuckers to have ever walked the earth and the majority of the dumbest of the dumb frequent the /lit/ board. You remember that old South Park episode where all the adults become obsessed with smelling and savoring their own farts? That's immediately what every single philosophy thread and post calls to mind every time I read one. You're all everyone of you, fucking worthless scum.
>>25646183Have you tried lowering your standards?
>>25646190This is what dumb people say. "everyone educated, cultured, and smart is pretentious and lame!" sounds like a defense mechanism
>>25646154>Are you talking to yourself here?I am proompting you to make your point that there exist standards that are not comparable because I clearly disagree. All standards are comparable.> It isn't so easy as that for most people to simply be,Who said anything about easy. It is simple. >what are you even thinking?Boobs and butts mostly. Sometimes facials.>Do you think that you should also not let it bother you if your house burns down or somethingNo, I think you should break down on the spot and curse the world for the rest of time.>I doubt you can even form an idea that lasts longer than five seconds,What the fuck does that even mean? You measure ideas in time? Sure uhhh, thinking of Pi digits right now. Surely that's longer than 5 seconds and is an idea I can form in my mind. Ooooo, like really big number.
>>25646190I agree, anon. I just have learned over time a different way of expressing my hatred and getting away with it. Since we live in an unjust society that doesn't recognize the institution of dueling, but does tolerate verbal dueling and, very often, outright bullying, I make do with that.
>>25646197Got one right here, lol.
>>25646200haha :p
Coffeetime :DDDDDD
>>25646207haha ebin :D
Just applied the lotion to the dark spot on my face.
>>25646198>I am proompting you to make your point that there exist standards that are not comparable because I clearly disagree. All standards are comparable.Ok. If you mean that standards are comparable simply by the fact that they are standards, then what you say is trivially true, but practically useless. Take justice an mercy. One says the offender deserves punishment, the other that he deserves mercy. These are two different standards, but how are they comparable aside from being standards? My point was that the standard you made up on the spot is not necessarily comparable to that anon's standard. Not sure why this is difficult for you. But again, you are not really living up to your own standard of total indifference. You are clearly angry at what goes on in otger peoples minda and, perhaps crucially, people not accepting what you say uncritically. >No, I think you should break down on the spot and curse the world for the rest of time.I mean, why not?
>>25646221Are you the anon on a cruise or w/e?
>>25646221Hideous. Also, copypasta at this point. Consider sewerslide.
>>25646221Got me. I'm in love.
>>25646214Whoah. Get a load of this guy.
I eat my boogers because my boogers are nummy.
>>25646217>how are they comparable aside from being standardsYou don't think you can observe the outcomes of punishment and mercy and compare the two to see which one you like? lol>the standard you made up on the spot is not necessarily comparable to that anon's standard.You don't think you can observe the outcomes of forcing women I leer over to fuck me and the notion that the world ought to conform to our understanding of fair and compare the two to see they're both ridiculous? lmao>you are not really living up to your own standard of total indifference. That's okay. We strive towards it anyways. Sisyphus and I are homies actually.>I mean, why not?Because it's goofy, but more importantly victim mentality is a trap that disables action. If that's how you want it though, keep suffering I guess.
"Cork" is from an old Armenian word for really hard shits like you get from just eating protein for a couple days in a row, because the Armenians would use these really hard shits to plug up the tops of the narrow clay vessels they kept their weird Slav wine slop in, as they were the inventors of wine, or so they claim.
Musicians are lazy faggots and spiders are sick cunts
>>25646221There was an anon trying to fuck in the last thread. I can't believe you left them on read. So rude.
>>25646221wonderful and handsome!
Am I seriously gonna be here all day? Aw man lol.
>>25646243>You don't think you can observe the outcomes of punishment and mercy and compare the two to see which one you like? lolThen you are comparing the outcomes and not the standards themselves. And even then, you state that the good standard is whichever you like more. But that introduces a further standard. Why have likes at all?>You don't think you can observe the outcomes of forcing women I leer over to fuck me and the notion that the world ought to conform to our understanding of fair and compare the two to see they're both ridiculous? lmaoAgain, outcomes, but do you also think it is stupid to have standards in food production? Or is it just moral standards that you find stupid simply because the world does not always conform to them?>That's okay. We strive towards it anyways. Sisyphus and I are homies actually.Ok. But instead of "striving" why don't you just stop playing around and do it right now?>Because it's goofy, but more importantly victim mentality is a trap that disables action. If that's how you want it though, keep suffering I guess.Not necessarily, it could be a way to process suffering and dispel some illusions
>>25646221Show us your big, red, puffy baboon asshole-tiered lips.
>>25646243>that disables actionYour "action" is just animalistic hedonism at most. Artists typically suffer. That's what passion means.
When is a cure for feminism going to be found?
>>25646023>just change your perspectiveDon't do that, Anon. You'll just delude yourself like this guy.
>>25646266The outcomes are the point of the standards, yes we compare the outcomes. How do you do it? >why don't you just stop playing around and do it right now?Because I am a human guy not a perfect being. I can set a 4 minute mile standard doesn't necessitate an instant Olympian cardiovascular system.>Not necessarily, it could be a way to process suffering and dispel some illusionsSure. Are you or that other anon doing that shit?>>25646273I am not saying don't ever suffer. I am saying don't step on every rake and give up immediately after each one.
>>25646251i’ll make it up to them
>>25646289>I am not saying don't ever suffer. I am saying don't step on every rake and give up immediately after each one.Oh ok, you are projecting your past insecurities regarding women onto anyone who is depressed. That somehow makes you sound even more stupid.
>>25646297Thanks for the schizophrenia brother. I feel so seen.
>>25646225i’ll consider it
>>25646289>The outcomes are the point of the standards, yes we compare the outcomes. How do you do it?That still doesn't establish how they standards themselves are commensurable. And before you were saying that standards are stupid but now you take up what I was getting at and say that some standards are better than others. So, really, you don't seem to know what you are talking about. >Because I am a human guy not a perfect being. I can set a 4 minute mile standard doesn't necessitate an instant Olympian cardiovascular system.Same goes for changing one's perspective, I guess.
>>25646286Never. Too many women would have to be killed.
I watch too much porn for my own good
>>25646304You're conflating ridiculing a stupid standard with having standards and then are smug about it. Epic I guess. Thank you.>Same goes for changing one's perspective, I guess.Yes. You could see a glimpse of that same notion in simple not easy.
>>25646306https://youtu.be/pNj9bXKGOiI
>>25646307Sometimes I buy porn.
>>25646310I mean like, 98.99% of the female populace would need to be mulched. That's never gonna happen in a thoroughly gynocentric society (especially one where niggers, fags, trannies and women just recently took back the majority of the political power)
What I'll never understand about most men is how they turn 25 and decide that their life is over. No more learning, no more ambition, no big projects, no crazy plans. Just go to work, come home, blog about which woman made your dick hard, experience the latest trending media for the masses like You Can See Everything, Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time (2026), Grand Theft Auto VI, have a little beer, a little THC, etc. I don't know how most men have the stomach to accept such a banal and pointless existence. To look down on the average man is very stupid, because average people can accomplish a lot, but it seems like they have to be compelled from without. So many of you are content to waste your lives.
>>25646330So? Go do the heroic epic or whatever. Good luck.
>>25646333I honestly thought that's what all of us wanted. If you're an 8 year old dreaming of the kind of life you want to have, aren't you looking at Neil Armstrong? Odysseus? Achilles? Napoleon? Alexander? Einstein? Tesla? Did you look at all this and say, "Yes, I just want a house and kids". If so, I suppose that settles that.
>>25646330a *little* beer?there’s something to be said for normal people. maybe they get on with it in that way not because they don’t know better but because they know best. in any case it reminded me of something i read about post-war brit lit: ‘the heroes are getting by in the gutter and seldom roll over to gaze at the stars’.

>>25646346No, I looked at how Alexander inherited a professional army his dad built and went oh, right.
>>25646357>pretty much any porn film or video is available for free onlineYou'd be surprised.
>>25646357He's obsessing over a qt. Many such cases.
>>25646360Personality is half genetic, so it would be incredibly odd for a person who's deeply gifted to emerge from parents who are shoddy bums.Don't forget Newton's mother was a very bizarre example of a cold, calculating entrepreneur who grew her estate like a modern business tycoon at the expense of everything else in her life. It was this same attitude Newton applied to natural science.You really ought not to blame material gifts when mental gifts are the real factor here.

Just got to season 6 of Scrubs on this rewatch and good lord, the precipitous drop in quality is painful. It was much different when, watching reruns back in the day, the episodes were out of order, so you just kinda dealt with it, and sometimes a meh one would be followed by a good one. But when you're watching it in order, and you see stupid joke after stupid joke, followed by more stupid jokes in the next episode, it begins to take a toll. I might actually tap out here and start watching something else.
>>25646387This is an extremely feminine way to view history. You're talking about some of the most accomplished men to ever live through literal therapy speak.
That time in AP Literature class in High School when the teacher put on The Simpsons episode where they do Lord of the Flies, and while I'm chuckling at some joke, the hot girl next to me who I never talked to turned to me and said,>Is this supposed to be funny?Obviously, I had no opportunity to agree with her and segue into conversation as she caught me mid-chuckle. I never had a chance.

>>25646453It's still a faggot mindset sorry. >ohhh noo napoleon was a psycho ;(
>>25646462good one.
>>25646459yeah it’s tough out there
>>25646464It is. Are you going to claim that Alexander didn't have tactical or military genus? How? How can Napoleon who has the most number of battles won in history not be a genius? You only win here by claiming that "genius" includes some moral claim within it as well, which has never been true, for otherwise Newton would lose the title while we're at it since he was a cruel and tyrannical man.Nah, genius is when wholesome chungus who never did a bad thing to anyone!
Any and all posts that are accompanied by an attached redditbob image are to be immediately disregarded and discarded without reading. If your thoughts or opinions had any real worth you'd never attach an image from a cartoon about homosexual sea dwellers made for seven year olds.
While on this topic, I've never understood Nietzsche's adoration Cesare Borgia. He didn't do anything besides amass power, he didn't believe in anything beyond amassing power. At least Caesar and Napoleon had a vision. Borgia was basically like our modern corporate executives, what's the big deal? Maybe I need to read a biography.
>>25646474genius is a latin (not greek) word and implied the primitive creative power which a man is born with and accompanies him throughout life. his sense of love and power of instinctive thought. the adjective ‘generous’ was formed from it; genial & genuine were other formations. a roman who behaves foolishly or evilly was said to have ‘defrauded his genius’.
>>25646480Your definition of "genius" is fake. Nobody alive uses the word in a moral sense.We're talking about military, political, and practical genius. You are completely incapable of denying them these merits.
>Oh-ho-ho! You see, MY definition of this word is secretly different from how everyone else uses this word, and MY definition says that I'm correct
>>25646487Genghis Khan won more battles and campaigns than Napoleon. This image is fucking dumb.
>>25646480if Genius (the creativity within) is a byproduct of virtue then how come bad guys get it? Is it because morality is A FUCKING MEME?! Checkmate, uhhh, geniuses.
>>25646487The inconsistent and confusing design of that image just turned me into a schizo, thanks.
>>25646487it’s common practice in philosophy to take the simple scientific precaution of finding the etymology and therefore the original meaning. our word genius cannot be wholly separated from its original roman meaning.
>>25646487What is this AI generated chickenshit bullshit?
>>25646500think you misread something
>>25646495>>25646502If you want to claim that Alexander and Napoleon are bad people, you're allowed to do this, it's fine. They can be gifted and accomplished men while also being bad. Just state that from the beginning. I don't understand what's up with this insistent faggotry in internet debates where people try to invent fake definitions of common terms just to pull one over on you. Just argue like a human being, please.
>>25646505That's what the main contention itt boils down to, innit? Napoleon and the other losers are cringe because they weren't like Julius who was a real leader that cared about the people instead of his own accolades.
>>25646487Oh cool an image that induces schizophrenia.
>>25646507sorry, but you’re the one getting worked up. and we are on the literature board, surely you can’t be that rattled by etymology(?) socrates (know him?) saw etymology as decoding a word to find the message the ancient namegivers had placed inside it.
>>25646517 that’s it
I think you gave me trust issues.
>>25646526>getting worked upWell of course, it's because I care about learning. It's incredibly important.It's natural to get annoyed when someone wastes your time, pretending that they've found a flaw in your beliefs, when really they just decided to use a quirky alternate definition for a common word that no one else subscribes to.But this only reinforces my belief that a tiny fraction of the human race cares about learning, even among the educated. If your goal was to learn anything from conversation, you wouldn't go about it like this. You would be honest and straightforward like I've been, rather than hoping to win arguments through rhetorical tricks and appeals to authority. You don't seem to care like I do. No wonder you wouldn't get mad.
>>25645896Thanks, added it to my TBR list.
>>25645762My favourite internet debate tactic is gesturing toward an audience that doesn't exist. I think it's a holdover from real world and TV/Radio rhetoric where an audience is a pre-requisite for that point to be reached. But in social media lik there is always the possibility of audience without there necessarily being one in actuality. This also causes people to assume literally every interaction is a debate.
>>25646532do you care about learning? etymology shouldn’t really come as this much of a shock.>appeals to authorityi guess i apologise for bringing up socrates (didn’t you express your view that greek scholar robert graves should’ve read the greeks earlier though?) - unfortunately i don’t have buzzfeed top ten battles-won infographics at hand. goes without saying everything i’ve said to you can be taken on its own merits.
>>25646542This doesnt happen. Check out this whacky anon, chat.
Theres a community I'm part of that deserves to have its server wiped. Complaints of a dying media/fandom, but also a straight circle jerk of nepotism, a caste system of who's who, and that dictates the social flow of the place, which in turn slowly kills what brings them together because most people that are loud enough to just keep barking ruin the atmosphere and have bad manners, and if they feel personally attacked by logic, they shut you out. I'm not a doomer by any sense, but I feel like accountability is non-existent and people have gotten way too used to being able to be shitty people over the internet by making a different account per community. rule sets dont mean or do anything in said communities when rulebreaking wasn't the problem in the first place. its pathetic to see people say xyz is dying but refuse to be shone in the light as part of the reason. I'm not mad, just disappointed.
>>25646549It's just a shame is all I'm saying. Your type has no interest in learning. You have conversations to prop up your own ego by referring to old respected authors, ancient etymologies etc. Do you think I don't know the classical definition of genius? Everyone knows that the classical world had a different definition of genius, we all know that the modern version originates with Goethe. We learn this all in high school, my friend. It's such a shame, because you might have some knowledge, but you will never actually do anything with it, because you view it as something to fluff up your own ego, something that is useful to play rhetorical tricks in arguments, rather than being an end in itself.
>>25646554I've been owned. Owned, I tell you.
>>25646542you should be appealing to the hypothetical audience regardless. it might not exist for 1000 years.
words to add to my daily vocabulary,>fallow>locution>fulguration
>>25646560i’m just talking. >we all know that the modern version originates with Goethea little earlier than goethe but it did blow up romantically in germany and was first used in its modern sense by fielding in his history of tom jones: ‘by the wonderful force of genius only, without the least assistance of learning…’ genius has always been contrasted with mere talent.
>>25646570>>fulgurationThis is the procedure my buddy got when he had his anal fistula fixed.
>>25646570Why? The only person you ever speak to on any given day is your elderly mother.
Praying for worldwide genocide.
>>25646536NP I will probably make a thread about him some day. He gives you a lot to look at while you float along in the narrative.
>>25646593Not really a genocide if it's indiscriminate
Counter praying for peace on earth

>>25646221Would suck dick
>>25646579lol that definition surprised me. It can also mean,>the act or process of flashing like lightningSo kinda like conflagration but instead of fire, lightning. Neat! Found it in Wallace Stevens,>Esthétique du mal>He was at Naples writing letters home>And, between his letters, reading paragraphs>On the sublime. Vesuvius had groaned>For a month. It was pleasant to be sitting there,>While the sultriest fulgurations, flickering,>Cast corners in the glass. He could describe>The terror of the sound because the sound>Was ancient.>>25646586pls no bully
poetry & art only ever first came into being for the purpose of convincing girls to go to bed with us. a lot of it today still serves that purpose. worth remembering. it’s basically matriarchal in origin. it’s stupid to think there’d be any other reason. sex is the central part of life.

On the other hand, this My Musical episode of Scrubs is incredible. It's worth watching Season 6 just for it tbqh
Scrubs is fucking shit. All the characters are thoroughly awful people.
I preach humanist virtues yet most people bore me or disgust me. Maybe this is true humanism.
>>25646711Doctors consistently say that Scrubs is the most accurate depiction of the medical profession ever made. Remember this the next time you need to see a doctor.
>>25646711I will say, I didn't really notice it as a kid -- in fact I took most of the lessons to heart -- but yeah, now that I actually have my own moral compass and life experience, a lot of the things the characters do are pretty abhorrent.
>>25646711>>25646721Then again, you gotta remember they're all Californian, so the immorality actually makes sense.
>>25646711My favorite is Jordan. My queen.
>>25646733Shame about all the plastic surgery. She looked better natural (though maybe this is unfair because she was natural and younger, and I don't have natural and older to compare with).
>>25646563An Audience a thousand years removed from what I'm saying will likely just read their own ideas into anything we say without regard as to what we meant. The only audience you can cater to is today's. The past audience is dead and the future one indeterminate.
>>25646739I don't consider Researchers to be an audience.
>>25646737Same, that amused bit was pretty good thoughALSO **WEEWOO WEEWOO** ASSBLAST ALERT ASSBLAST ALERT AN ANONYMOUS IS ASSBLASTED ON THE INTERNET I got a 15 minute racisms time out. Whoever you is SUPA cringe and you're a bitch.
That time I was a kid and my mom had to shower after we ordered some pizza, so she gave me the money to pay the delivery driver, and I thought I was so smart because I believed she had accidentally given me too much money and I gave the guy exact change. She was horrified. I think she even tried running outside to give the guy a tip (she was a waitress).

How good it would feel to see him bending from the pain and his eyes turning into absolute terror as he struggles to process just what happened.I wouldnt shoot once though, at least three times so no matter what happens next, all he has left to look forward to is a slow death.And then maybe step on his stomach, maybe yell at him as he's on the ground, and shoot him some more, but nowhere near the brain or other major organs. I'd like to try and give plastic surgeons a challenge.I love the thought of inflicting terror and pain on a whim. Bringing a person to a state of being beyond our shared illusions of law and logic, and explore that moment together. The last one.Only then would he remember that there was reason to be afraid after all. His made up models of reality suddenly crashing down in the same abrupt fashion bullets puncture through soft tissue.TV lied to you. Your life is not a story, it's a news article.t. larper

>>25646841The first summer I was hooked on heroin I read Junky. Incidentally, I had already read Naked Lunch before that.
>>25646843which is to say you're familiar with the text yes I'm something on the same track! I'm not heroin user but I would consider my mind one way or another having been completely destroyed through a massive abuse of alcohol and weed (boring pair I know, wish it could have been something harder, though my dealer did die of a heroin overdose), and myself in a state of permanent recovery, and rebirth! You seem like a person who knows how a resurrection really feels.
You know I don't believe there's such a thing as TV. I mean - they just keep showing the same pictures over and over, and when they talk they just make sounds that more or less synch up with their lips. That's what I think.
>>25645762where is this pic from?
I always attract the nice, but weird Christian girls. Unfortunately trauma from a past relationship has meant that I have never pursued any of them. I do feel bad that I may be making old maids out of them though.
>>25646830For me it's the understanding that they can do all the edgy shit back to me if I slip up. So I am good actually.

Fossilized poppy seeds and other archeological evidence found indigs near lakes in Switzerland reveals that the opium poppy was used byNeanderthal man as long as 30,000 years ago. Prehistoric use of poppiescould have gone beyond the use of opium, as the poppy yields abundantquantities of nutritious seed, which can be eaten raw or cooked. The driedplant also provides a clean-burning fuel, and poppy straw is still used today for animal fodder. Its drug qualities could have also fulfilled a religiousrole of some kind—a theory that has gained credence in recent years.

Opium is the mother of all analgesics—there is not much painthat can withstand the effects of opium. Its isolated alkaloids and thesemi-synthetic drugs derived from them have proven so remarkable thatscientists have returned to opium again and again in attempts to learnits secrets. Such investigation has led to milestones in the study of endogenous chemicals and their various receptors controlling pain, mood,sex and growth hormones, and even the immune system.As a recreational drug it is both energizing and calming. Opiumstimulates the higher brain functions of the cerebral cortex, even as itdepresses the central nervous system. The effects of opium are fairly predictable, running along a continuum of feelings roughly correspondingto dose, but certain features are always present in an opium high.Small doses produce a sense of well-being and relaxation. Opium isso effective at relieving tension that this is why it was so commonly usedin patent medicines for maladies called “nervous ailments.” Indeed, theword “tranquilizer” was first coined to describe opium. Today opiate usefor anxiety has been superseded by tranquilizing drugs such as Valium orother benzodiazepines.But opium’s relaxation is not particularly soporific or hypnotic. Thesleep it produces is not deep and for all the talk of “opium dreams,”there is evidence that opium suppresses the REM stage of sleep normallyassociated with dreaming. For this reason it’s better to consider thesedreams as a form of hallucination.As the dose of opium increases, relaxation and contentedness become even more blissful and euphoric. The kind of quasi-hallucinationsBlair refers to are common but in no way similar to the harsh and powerful hallucinations brought on by psychedelic drugs like LSD. The visions are gentle, dreamlike and do not dominate the experience. Opiumhallucinations are more an addition to reality rather than an intrusion,and such hallucinations vanish upon direct attention.The same goes for visual images. People report animals from squirrels to tigers being present in the room with them. Nearly always theanimals are harmless and cause no alarm, only interest. But should youtry to touch them, or to scrutinize the hallucination too carefully, thevision melts away just as a dream. More opium increases the blending ofthought, dream, and reality.

The blue rubber doohicky holding my auxiliary backup breathing apparatus broke 48 feet underwater and my yellow octo got caught on an underwater steel cable. I didn't realize anything was wrong until my foward momentum stopped and it felt like someone was holding me back by yanking on my octo. Luckily it was an easy fix, I just swam back and unhooked my octo from the cable. I kinda almost drowned tonight, I only had a couple hundred PSI left on my tank but I didn't panic, I just calmly swam back, found it with my flashlight and unhooked it from the cable. My two dive buddies thought they lost me but I made it back to the group and we surfaced.Two more dives under my belt and in pitch blackness. Fun stuff. I'm actually surprised at myself, I calmly, rationally solved the problem without panicking which isn't something I've always managed to do on solid ground.
>>25646739homer is coming on three thousand years old and is still read sincerely by a few. the present audience is also indeterminate. people in a thousand years time won’t be as different as you’re imagining. writing for an unborn audience has always been an inbuilt idea for literature. consciousness doesn’t evolve upward so much as return, again and again, to the same human scale. the eternities of divine commonplace.

I hate the followers more than the thing itself. The memey cringe of death grips fans, pseuds who hail black midi as something new because they've never listened to Latinx music, even pseudier people who listen to bcnr seriously without laughing. Opposite is also true, juggalos are cool even though their music sucks. It's just the extent people go, especially with politics. The hypocrisy of a communist studying authoritarianism and only relating it to fascism (the authoritarian personality) or not tolerating something as "an act of tolerance" (the paradox of tolerance). I just hate the stupid shit people come up with to justify their beliefs. It's self deceit and dishonest. People who see themselves as being intelligent are the worst. They say shit like "you have the intelligence of a damp crisp packet, you're a parody of a human being" while saying something like a man in a dress is a woman or Vikings were somalians. How are you supposed to understand these people? Serial killers believe in killing people and doing weird shit to their bodies, people who aren't serial killers can't comprehend that, but it happens. We're just so far away from eachother.

I can't sleep more, i passed the last three or four weeks sleeping bad. And i don't know how solve it. I talked with my family about the problem, but my brother have more healthcare problems than me, i just was ignored. And now i have some depressive thoughts and it's bad, someone here have a problem like it? Can someone help me?
>>25647176Reddit is gay but I would suggest reposting something like this on some subreddit. There are very few people actually posting here so it might be hard to accidentally find someone who can help here. It's not clear what your issue is. I assume you mean to say you're having depressive / psychological issues that are preventing you from sleeping? Or is the not sleeping causing the depression?If you just need sleep you should see a doctor or.a pharmacist and try some medication. Some sleep aids can be addictive so if you find one that works be careful of that. I take melatonin every night (10mg) to go to sleep, it's mild though and may not help someone who is having severe issues. From your post however I expect the issue is you're having pychological issues that are getting ignored because of your brother and probably because that's just how they're treated in your country. The bad news about psych stuff is that even good treatment doesn't always fix things, it generally takes time and effort on your part before you see a difference, and the only two things that are statistically shown to work are 1) medication and to a much smaller degree 2) professional therapy, usually only one or two kinds work per disorder (so like CBT has data showing it works for depression and anxiety but not schizophrenia -- I think, you should double check that stuff yourself). The problem with the drugs is you need to find a psychiatrist to prescribe them and to dial in your dose and it can sometimes be months to actually do that (depends on the system in your country). The problem with the therapy is it can be hard to find a therapist that's a good match for you that has availability and which you can afford. I don't mean to discourage you. You should try to get better. I just want to warn you that you're starting at the bottom of a very big hill.
