>>741621439I masturbated 4 times yesterday
>>741621516I wonder how much Bloober will change Heather and her outfit.
>>741621685They gonna uglify her, make her older, and cover her up in order to appeal to the modern audiences.>>741621516Fuck no. I hope that Bloopooper KILLS themselves.
>>741621471Will you make me a sandwich?
>>741621439DO YOU HAVE THE LEMONDROP COLLECTION?!
>>741621954A henry sandwich?
>>741621439How's it hanging, Anon?
>>741621439work is the only thing that gives me purpose but by boss is asking too much of me, and I don't want to tell him that to seem unreliable so me and my work just suffer as a resultI also need to ask for a raise but he guilt trips me about living week to week I don't have enough confidence to find a different job
>>741626868Look after yourself. Your work won't thank you, your boss won't remember you.
>>741626997That's the thing, the work *does* thank me because I work in genealogy and people are always really grateful and surprised so I feel validated and that my work matters. It pays more than a job like this should but I've stagnated for like three years. My boss is a nice guy but he's not a great boss. Just feel like I've got a golden goose I don't want to kill.
>>741627093Sounds like you're putting others before yourself. A bad idea especially in your situation imo.
>>741621439Hanging from my ceiling fan.
>>741627226I mean you're right but it's what I know/am used to. I don't really see a way out of the situation.

>>741627532It's so fucking over when the physical shit starts happening anon.Become /fit/
>>741621779>I hope that Bloopooper KILLS themselves.Isn't that a bit extreme?
>>741627632This was me except 40 was 30Then I turned 30 and nothing magical happenedSo whenever something catastrophic that I don't want to deal with happens is my checkout deadline
>>741627532Same except I'm getting a masters degree now because I'd kill myself if I had to be unemployed again. God bless being able to study and earn credit during summer.
>>741627874I did this when my useless bachelors didn't do anything for me out of fear and it didn't get me anywhere other than preventing me from killing myself, so best of luck with that
>>741627929I now masters ain't gonna do shit for me but I want to live so this is preferable.
>>741621506Are you me
>>74162763242running on lentils and animei aint gonna be another tragic statisticim gonna stick around til the curtain close
>>741621439Maybe. I'm 37 and will soon be losing my job that I've been at for 16 years. Company is closing our branch for the "good of the company" despite my branch being one of the better ones. I was up for a big promotion too. My parents health is going down the tube with obesity, diabetes, and dementia.
>>741627489Damn, where's the new reggie video?
>>741621439Nah, i can't see myself going on.

>>741628779whats their endgoal?
>>741628482Also forgot about my cat whoops but i do care about her
>>741621439Pretty good actually. Lifes been WAY better than I thought it would go about 10 years ago. I guess I suspected that every single thing would go the worst possible way. But it sorta evened out with some good some bad. Goes to show that sometimes "Im just being realistic" really is just pessimism. Ive learned to take things as they are. Nothing lasts forever, good or bad.
I fucking can’t stand that people keep posting that one short hair Olympic runner chick because she looks EXACTLY like my ex from head to fucking toe and I still fucking miss her STOP REMINDING ME

Lost house in a tornado. No vidya for now. I'm thinking of getting a Switch 2 but man none of the games interest me.

When I was a kid I thought I'd be braver and smarter and cooler when I got older. Now I'm 28 and none of that feels achieved.

>>741628879>>741628278
>>741629392I thought the same thing, and then I did and it was amazing, and then I regressed because of my family. Not doing that shit again. I may have made a break through with my mom but I still have no faith anything will happen.
>>741621439Work's been hell with the ever looming threat of layoffs. The job market is beyond fucked. I don't have any valuable skills or unique talents to be able to scrounge together some sort of side job to keep myself afloat while navigating the shitty market.And a series of unfortunate events (health related) has put me back into debt and the ever-growing cost of living is eating into the small nest egg I have.It's all so tiresome doing everything you're "supposed to do" but consistently feeling like you're getting no where and are fucked no matter what.At least my backlog is gigantic so I got tons of games to play to keep myself occupied and avoid spending any money.
>>741629392I'm somehow even more nervous and scared than usual. I genuine cant even look at bridges as example without feeling absolute dread. When Im in the city around people I can really hear my deep breaths and I start sweating slowly. My concetration goes wild and I often cant even walk normally anymore.
>>741629886>It's all so tiresome doing everything you're "supposed to do" but consistently feeling like you're getting no where and are fucked no matter what.Yeah this is the biggest mindfuck about becoming an adult. Even as a 30 y/o manchild living at home, if you're employed, you never feel like there's any reprieve. There's always *something* you should be doing. You can't ever enjoy time to yourself unless you fully immerse yourself in an activity or do drugs to turn your mind off.
>>741627864No, total pole death NOW
>>741629923I get anxiety real bad. If something sets me off the next week or two of my life after that is pretty much completely ruined. Can’t relax, sleep, or enjoy much of anything.Had to quit caffeine even though I feel like shit without it and am constantly tired.
>>741629923There was this experiment involving children where the researcher got them to pretend they were Batman for a day and noticed the kids were more attentive to schoolwork, kinder to each other and overall better people. What you said used to happen to me too but I fixed it by just doing that same thing, by pretending I was somebody else. Won't say what the character was but I went from scared shut in to helping my local people, being more positive and overall being more approachable. In an antagonistic way it also helps to imagine everyone as more fragile than they really are. Just think everyone but me is an adult sized kindergartener and most of the heavy lifting of that fear is gone. Then, once you actually start talking with people, you'll find out you were right all along.
>just pretend you're somebody else
>>741630576Would you pretend to be yourself?Why not?
>>741630662I dont need to pretend to be fat or ugly
>>741626868Opposite situation but still relate:>Work gave me purpose>BoomerX bosses run company into the ground (got sold off EXACTLY when I said it would)>Keep trying to make a change but office cunts and BoomerXs refuse>Quit Thanksgiving of 2024>2025: Work 5 jobs but quit because picky and they also suck. I want to be invested in a company>Job market shitty but ok results>2026: No jobs. Fucking nothing. Not even rejection emails. Run out of money by Thanksgiving of this year>No idea what to do. Strangely ok with being a bum>Been outside more. The most tanned I've ever been since a kid>Best shape of my life and get compliments/mires regularly>Hair grown out and ought to be to my shoulders in November>Look and feel like the Disney Tarzan>Feel amazing despite knowing it ends soon>Fully expect "Woah, how could a guy this happy and carefree blow his head off?" reaction when Thanksgiving hitsJust opening a job board somehow kills every bit of joy and happiness I have. This system is fucking AIDS and it HAS to be designed as such.

>>741629886I'm glad you found one positive thing to be thankful for. I relate a lot to the the concept of doing everything you were "supposed to do" but feel like you're getting nowhere.I made it. i have the 6 figure salary. full time work from home. have a partner, paid off the house. but I always feel like I could be doing more. I could do more work stuff, i could be doing a side project, the house needs cleaning, dinner needs cooking, i should go to the dentist, i should plan a social event, i should fix the drippy faucet, i should plan my finances better. fuck i just want to play video games.

>>741634041Damn bro that sucks
>>741621439Idk anon.Currently unemployed. I work as a dentist and its honestly really shitty having to deal with the business side of things. >got out of dental school with a job which most people dont - working 2 clinics>got stabbed in the back in said job when one of the managers of clinic 1 went to clinic 2 and asked them to pay me less so I dont think about only working in clinic 2>went into a high paying job>lasted 6 months there until my manager harassed me enough for the big boss to transfer me to another city - I just asked him to let me go cause I cant deal with that anymore>took an exam for a high paying government job and aced it, zero questions wrong>then they changed one of the answers on a late errata and knocked me to 2nd place - didnt get the job>currently on a spiral of depression waiting to take up another government job that I managed to get a couple months ago Playing a lot of vidya though.Currently finishing disco elysium.

>lost my job 2 weeks ago>shotgunning resume to every job within my old payrange>no responses>realize I'm gonna have to work at some shitty fast food, restaurant, or retailnot good to be honest.
>>741628616man im such a retarded dipshit
>Lucked into a job that pays way more than it should for my experience level>Know I'll never get another job that pays like this again so I'm forced to stick with it>It's stressful as fuck and forces me to do a lot of overtime >Think about quitting every day>Read through this thread about multiple anons quitting and finding nothing for months if not years at a time>Realize i'm going to be stuck doing a shitty job that I hate for the rest of my life
>>741629392Lol! When I was young I remember respecting my elders, thinking they were all-knowing wise people and I couldn't wait to become one of them. Getting old and finding out most people are what you might call dense tore my whole world view apart
>>741635013>>realize I'm gonna have to work at some shitty fast food, restaurant, or retailThis nigga thinks any of those places are hiring. You're gonna DoorDash, nigga. That's all you get, whiteboi.
NoI actually legit think I'm dyingI'm suffering from these super intense headaches every few days and everyday I have a sore head. I have an appointment with a Neurologist on Friday and am terrified because I know I'm in horrible health in every aspectI think it's over for me
>>741634041>stuck in a loneliness loop of go to work where it's pretty clear people don't like me then go home and be alone>feeling worse every week but I can't find any way to meet anybody or be socialLiterally me. I think this is most people honestly, work friend never feel like actual friends I had back in high school or growing up. It's all just obnoxious generic small talk.
Why does everyone act like it's hard to work shitty jobs. If you live alone or better yet with your parents, then you can easily sustain yourself with minimal wage and invest, plus youc an slack off a lot. You can have $50k or more in like 5 years if you are smart about it, and then use these money to retire. Unless you are a consoomer or have a girlfriend, but that would literally mean that you are goycattle and deserve everything bad you get
Father died recently. I Put on weight. Feel new health issues popping up. Trying to quit jerking off since I feel like I'm addicted to it right now. Sad, but knowing that my dad is probably enjoying the afterlife with his other family members who passed away, makes it easier.
>>741621439Realized it had been 20 years since I played a final fantasy other than 1. And that im getting old and fat enough that if I ever want to replay them before dying, I should start now.Up to 4 so far and had a good time. Cheated in the same classic way most people do for 2, leaned hard on a guide for 3 then played 4 casually. Now I have to decide if I want to do min max bullshit or just wing it for 5.Honestly the music is the part that holds up best by far. Everything else is "fine".
>>741635681>use 50k to retiredo you live in zimbabwe or something?
>>741635681It's not working them that is hard. It's obtaining them and being able to progress and rise through them. You can bet your ass I'd work McDick's the rest ofmy life if I could be making 80k as a manager in 3-5 years with room to still rise.>retire off 50kOh nvm. You're either retarded or trolling.
>>741621439hello emo chip eaterno, hopefully I will die soon
>>741621439My power just got cut off a half hour ago.Data plan the only thing keeping me from flipping out.Battery at 30%.o7
>they don't know how to retire with 50kNo wonder you are all so sad around here
>>741636593>My power just got cut off a half hour agothis used to happen a lot when I was a kid and we were poor. Looking at the workers cutting our power and water supply I remember thinking as a teenager >they're only doing their jobs cant be mad at themNowadays I say fuck these niggers. You have to be a cunt to work a job where you know you go around making the lives of families/people that are already on a bad spot even worse.

>>741637803BLAME THE TROOP, WE TAKE ALL BLAME
>>741638117rip anon's cat.
>>741633138You see, I should have "made it" by now.I technically made 6 figures last year. But after taxes and how my compensation is paid out, I brought home roughly $75K which I know is still pretty good. I do WFH (for now but I don't see this lasting) and have a partner, too. However, our house is not paid off. Those health reasons I mentioned has has us living off of just my income for over a year. And even with insurance, treatments and medications are expensive as fuck. We're getting by but not getting ahead. This despite me getting the education and putting in the work I was led to believe would have a payoff. But guess it's my fault for believing that in the first place.I'm glad you made it though and hope you can silence the voice of productivity so you can chill with a good game. I can only imagine how less stressed I'd be about our finances if I wasn't terrified of becoming homeless. Grass is always greener as they say.
>>741638117Get a new cat or dog

Or why I have to suffer.
>>741621779Its even a larger shame than the usual wokeslop because we have documented evidence that it was the women of team silent who made heather more sexualized for the sake of both narrative cohesion and native sex appeal to sell then game, and then men who wanted to keep her more conservative.Its all so fucking tiresome.
>>741621439>Grandpa went into ICU last night after falling and then losing consciousness in the ambulance >very real chance he doesnt wake back upNo, not really.
>>741621439Why dont you blogposters just kill yourselves and spare the rest of us the eyesore of seeing your offtopic threads polluting the catalog. The fact that ANY of you think you're interesting enough to post about your life story on a mongolian throat singing forum is baffling.
>>741639653I'm sorry anon. Sorry to hijack your post, but you made me realize that I haven't experienced loss like... ever. Last funeral I went to for someone in my family was for my grandma's second husband back in like 2007. Now that my dad's turning 70 this year, I know I'm probably not going to handle my next bout well. I'll probably just go with him.
>>741639787Because we don't want too lol. We also don't want to listen to you either. How about you kill yourself instead of bitching like a little bitch about about people bitching like a bitch.
>>741639787Ow the edge.>posting the cunny from an already forgotten, literal eyesore, tried way too hard to be interesting game that was somehow less interesting than the stories here with an even worse twist>not even the 3d version because it looks like fetal alcohol syndrome
>>741621439After reading this thread, I've realized I'm doing really really well all things considered and I should probably be more thankful for the opportunities and people I have in my life right now.I wish the best of luck to all the struggling anons ITT. Life can be shit but it doesn't HAVE to always be shit.
>>741639624Literally me except I do have a job. It’s a decently comfy office job
GIVE ME A FUCKING JOBGIVE ME A FUCKING JOBGIVE ME A FUCKING JOBGIVE ME A FUCKING JOB
im so socially retarded ive literally been filtered by lifeim not even that good at games
>>741640612I'll pay you $20 to suck my dick every day but you gotta dress up like princess peach and compliment my "big mushroom".
>>741639868It's really not that bad. I lost my grandparents, who loved me a lot and were a big part of my life, and my childhood dog, who got run over by a huge truck right before my eyes. Didn't feel much when my grandparents died, which was surprising. I thought I'd be a mess. Watching my dog die fucked me up a bit though, but that's more trauma and guilt than loss, I think.I guess everyone experiences/processes it differently?
>>741640612Just pull yourself up by your bootstraps
I never recovered from losing my gf.
>>741634041Have you visited your parents occasionally since? It can help with the loneliness in my experience

>>741641534She was BPD, she constantly lied for attention, she was a drama queen, she would make up shit about her past that were very obviously false, and would start crying and go silent if you ever challenged her.But she was a cute gamer tomboy shut in.She just used me for comfort for a year and a half and eventually one day she just said she didn’t love me anymore and wanted to cut contact.I know she was a piece of shit but I fucking loved her so much
>>741639787yeah you're right we need another tranny twitter cap thread
>>741641934Man, sounds like you got off lightly. I've heard horror stories about BPD girls. Guys that get abused and left with trauma, falsely accused of rape and had their entire lives ruined, regret after she an heros, etc. It won't fix the hole in your heart, but a sudden breakup sounds like the least painful way that could have ended for you. She was using you, the relationship was never going to last.It's really shit how women can leave such awful wounds on men with so little effort, and not even realize it.
>>741642338>this thing you're doing is bad>BUT WHAT ABOUT THIS OTHER EQUALLY BAD THINGkill yourself
>>741642490Yeah what about them? I think you should stick to them instead since you fit right in

Graduated and got a job despite ai eating half the tech field but still want to kill myself in this economy and realizing I'm sinking like 10 hours a day into this shit. There really is no winning.

>>741639787>constant bait threads being posted over and over forever >this thread was the one that made you mad
>>741642846Atleast we can post animal pictures. It helps ease things sometimes
>>741627093>>741627489Practice the discussion with someone else, a friend or relative. If your boss is a reasonable guy, he should understand. Just be calm, composed, and honest >boss, I love this job and I think I know I’m good at it, but I feel like if my workload keeps increasing, the quality of my work will suffer. Can we dial it back a bit?
I have autistic burnout and can't do my job anymore but calling my boss and bringing it up would be too stressful so I'm just waiting for him to notice.
>boss complaining on and on and on about the plumping in his house>I'm barely holding on to my sanityI dont know how im gonna keep doing this.
>>741642830I had to go for a help desk position. Guess I should be grateful to be employed at all, but this shit really is just customer service but it pays more than minimum wage.
>>741643776Normies take things like that for granted, being able to buy a house came so naturally to them that they can't comprehend someone not being able to do so.
>>741643776At least you're still holding on to sanity, I lost mine a while ago
Have you ever tried to spontaneously combust? Think if I figure out some way to activate all my mitochondria at once I can pull it off.
Went from 210lbs to 163lbs in two years by watching what I eat and walking every day but it left me skinny fat. Might finally cave in and get a gym membership. Never had one, don't really know what to expect. Should give me a reason to leave my apartment for something other than groceries at least
>>741621439yeah, if i ignore my future (immediate and distant). i dont think ill ever find a nice gf.
>>741628456Why do you like old Diana better anon? The more conventional robot personality from the early trailers? I thought her old voice ("Are we there yet?" 2023 trailer) sounded cool but the realistic human child voice became my preference after playing the game. I think they changed her from stoic robot to curious and kid-like somewhere in development. Maybe along with giving the story a bigger focus on AI, but who knows.
>>741644523It's okay bro, love doesn't exist anyway, nobody is happy. That's what I tell myself
>>741621439I’m trying my best. Not being healthy enough to work is a hard obstacle to overcome. Can’t really date if you have no money. Can’t really meet people anyway if you feel too sick to go out. Don’t even qualify for disability because I was never healthy enough to work and pay into the program. But I’m trying to find creative ways to make money in spite of everything. It’s a gamble, but maybe it’ll pay off.

>>741644725No one's a bigger loser than the shitstain who needs to attack other people at any possible opportunity to feel better about himself.
>>741644918Right because it's those people that delude themselves into thinking they're not as bad as the people they attack, which is sadder really

A job, luxuries I want, and the ability to save for the future.
I've spent the last two weeks dealing with the fallout of an abscess tooth. Some of the worst pain I've ever felt and several thousand dollars I didn't feel like spending, but the other shit that seems to be happening constantly is far worse. Some asshole ran into my parked car, the roof at one of the stores I manage started leaking, the a/c at another one died and will have to be replaced, my rent is going up and I'll have to move since it's not worth that much, and despite not smoking to avoid a dry socket, I got one anyway.
I'm turning 29 years old in a month and I've never had a job and only have a high school degreeI don't even have a driver's licenseMy parents live off government checkshow do I unfuck my life

>>741645448That sounds great
>>741645551You know what you gotta do, anon.Get your license, or secure some alternate means of transport.Get a job. Then a better one.Move out or take over your household as its primary breadwinner.
>>741645724>Get a job. Then a better one.It's the 2020s retard, you can't get a job unless you can wow the HR thot with your amazing life when she tells you to tell her about yourself.
>>741645724I know what I gotta do I just can't make myself do itI'm 99% sure I have had unmedicated ADHD my entire life and driving makes me freak out too much to be able to handle itIt's extremely frustrating because I don't know how to overcome it and don't have a good relationship with my parents so I can't have them help me

>>741637063this is bs, newfag
>>741645724>Get a job. Then a better one.Not that anon, but my current job pays pretty meh, but it's extremely local (walking distance) and allows me to work from home 3 days a week on top of that. And at least for now it's work I'm quite comfortable with.I also have like, no fucking idea what direction I'd want to go in for a "better" role and the idea of moving into a management position is nightmarish to me, I actively do not want to be responsible for other people.

Lost a bunch of weight when I was a NEET, got a job and gained it all back from stress eating.
>>741645545try what other anon said, but nutmeg helped me when I had tooth issues. For other anons look into dental plans (Lisa needs braces). I kick myself seeing how cheap they were for basic preventative care. Ever since I got the 6 month bi annual cleaning for my teeth I've had zero cavities since 2020. I floss once a day, I brush teef once a day and the flossing is with a floss pick (the little pick with the floss bit between a fork). SO not as good as using the string proper but it's done a fine job. I might have a cavity in the future as there's an area with wear but they're just monitoring it.Given previously I'd have 2-3 year gaps of dental work and then cavities, it's real good.Job wise I like that it lets me WFH but it's gig work and it's rather dry right now, I don't like the unpredictability. As much as jeets and outsourcing are a risk, I need to get back to studying for CompTIA.I barely play any vidya now, I mostly just mod vidya since it's like fun tinkering/painting miniatures but digital and free.
>>741647164I use popcorn when I feel the urge to stress eat.

I've been waking up crying out for help at night and being paranoid of every heartbeat during the day for a month straight
>>741648481if that's not an exaggeration you should probably just get admitted to a psych ward and let go of the wheel for a little while
>>741648316Even 20 years ago things were much better than they are now.The future was a mistake.
>>741648214People weren't paranoid parasocial busybees like they are now. Products were made with genuine considerations of the consumer in mind and being the cheapest wasn't the first concern.

>>741645598You could've made your blogposting crybaby thread in /r9k/ but you chose not to.>mad that your janny application got rejected?No thanks, I'm not a fan of slave labour
I was a little curious to find out just how much time I've spent playing video games, so I made a list of all the games I'm sure I played all the way through and looked up their completion times on the HowLongToBeat website. It turns out I've spent around 18,000 hours gaming. That's about two years of nonstop gaming.honestly felt a bit lacking. gonna need to put in more hours.
>>741644918No one's attacking you, schizo. I'm just telling you to make your bitchbaby blogposting threads where you can wail about your life somewhere else.

>>741621439I can't really play vidya anymore. I try to play sometimes and I do have fun but those sessions are usually separated by weeks. Yet I still buy them even though I'll probably never be able to finish my backlog for as long as I live.>>741621506Same, but I want to give it a go anyways. I wish I focused on my art when I was younger but I can just teach myself and eventually get better.
>>741621439I don't know right now, planning to take the MCAT next month but I kind of stopped studying for it because I know my perma stance to not getting vaxxed will fuck me in the end especially how long you spend in school and training just to get paid regularly.Looking ways to end my life desu because I made so many damn sacrifices in my life. Ain't no one gonna miss me.Only thing that gets me to chuckle is Mount and Blade Warband when the peasants say "It's almost harvestin' season"

Have been playing the following:>The saboteur>Urban chaos riot response>Citizen sleeper>Max payneMy elderly dog officially died this weekend. I say officially because 2 weeks ago it had a few seizure attacks and the first one basically made her retarded so she was already gone for a while, the medicine didn't help at all. i didn't cry too much but my sister and mom cried for hours. Loved that dog but 16 years was already a stretch for her. She was basically blind and deaf as well, it is a miracle she lived that long and I am at peace she is gone as resting in peace.Also having a real hard time quitting internet porn. The boredom takes over and when I notice I am already jacking off. Doesn't help that I work at home and have to use my pc almost at all times, it is like being a drug addict and living with your dealer.My current job is fucking great, not too demanding and it pays extremely well for what I do, I hope and can keep working here for a long ass time. Thinking of getting pic related to cruise around town and for short trips around my state.thanks for reading my blog.
>have all the games>dont feel like playinguguu
I am not enjoying unemployment and having a useless degree with a shit ton of debt. After quitting my job thinking I had something lined up, I am fucked. Now I get to live with my parents and watch them decay.I don't want to work either.Videogames are barely fun enough to excuse playing them.I like watching Majuular on Youtube, and hearing about the whimsical history of the videogame industry, before it became this cesspool.>>741635916I am enjoying going through FF for the first time in my 20s. 4 was great. 7 very cool. Next i think 8,9, or remake. 10 is pretty boring so far.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veKm93LJ130

>>741652942I didn't understand it at the time but I was upset because we didn't really have as close a connection as we claimed we did. We called each other "best friends" but we barely shared interests and only spoke like once a month, so it felt disingenuous. They're much more accomplished than me, so it made me feel invisible and replaceable as a result. I ended up traumadumping like an idiot in some attempt to try and forge a stronger connection, but then got blocked in response.

>>741652979I nearly shit myself earlier this year when I saw I gained like 30 pounds in the span of just a couple months.Always been out of shape and overweight but that was the biggest I’ve ever been. It’s easy fall into a funk when you’re working a mindless deskdrone job but don’t eat yourself to death man.Just cutting way back on calories and walking 30~ mins a day I was able to lose 20 since then. I want to keep the momentum up and be at a healthy bmi for the first time since I was in HS. Being fat fucking sucks it’s the worst thing you can do to yourself.
>>741653603Wow it's almost at bump limit yet you've utterly failed this entire time to exert power over us by getting us to stop, you should really kill yourself because your existence is the truly pathetic one.
>>741621439I very well might have a severe gaming addiction. My parents want me to get a job already but all I seem to care about is gaming. It's the only thing that I want to do.

>>741654090Why not?
>>741653794>Everyone who doesn't like me is the same person!!!Lmao
>>741654074Literally me a few years ago.Still feel like the only thing that interests me is vidya. It’s the only thing I can say I’m good at. Everything else my brain is empty.My advice: stop playing long form multiplayer games like MMOs or competitive shooters. That’s what really made me addicted back in the day. I only play single player games now and sometimes I just don’t really have anything to play so I’m less excited about vidya and can think about other stuff. Whether that’s good or bad I don’t know
Anyone complaining is a newfag, stuposting is board culture and has been since I was a teenager. I love all you anons, we’re gonna make it
>>741654074>my parents want meWho cares what they want.

>>741653603>willfully opening threads just to get upsetYou do you I guess, I’m not your dad.
>>741654323My boomer parents gave me a hard time for a decade til they got old enough to need me to help around the house and now I dont hear a peep out of them. People are always looking out for their own best interest, they wanted you to get a job cuz they cant stand yu, not because they care about your future.

Do they have this sort of relationship with constant communication with all their friends and acquaintances and I’m the weird one for thinking it’s weird that she wants to spend so much time with me without being more than friends?
>>741654442>she still wants to talkBe honest, tell her youre only looking for a romantic relationship. You have enough friends.

>>741654575Being depressed itself is a meme. Stop taking life so seriously.

>>741654441Oh gosh none of us are failures and I’m more than happy to help.It’s just when it rains it pours.
>>741654575Unironically depends on if you actually have tried doing those anyways.That in and of itself actually does matter and at the end of the day it’s uo to you to help yourself.Therapists are there do help you realize what you need to do and they’ll start with the simple shit.
>>741654291When they pay the bills for my neet ass I have to at least pretend I'm trying.

>>741654575Therapy is just a place for stupid people with no interal monologue to bounce ideas off of another person without judgement.It's not for people like you or I.
>>741654074You should listen to your parents and get a job.Part of being an adult is doing things you don't want to do.

>>741639868Well, I just got the update that he's off the ventilator and awake, so there's that at least. Hopefully this was just a one-off scare but I'll have to wait for word from my dad.
>>741654541Had that conversation with a few people before, the term “fuckzone” gets brought up, can’t even say they’re wrong. I just don’t have time or energy to invest in a woman that makes me feel inadequate. It’d be one thing if there was never attraction and we just bantered as friends, but now every teasing joke has the sting of insult and “this is why I rejected you”. >>741654715Part of the issue is that we are coworkers and she has no actual friends in the area outside of remote work friends from another job so she really wants to make friendship work so that she has someone in the area. If I cut her off I’ll still have to see her constantly and that’s a bad scene. I know everyone says never date coworkers and they’re right but with my life and interests I don’t really have other avenues of meeting people, and I don’t want to go out and try to meet people for the sake of meeting people.
>>741655371None of that is your problem.

>>741655516Do you have a better answer, anon?
>>741655371Well I can tell you aren’t actually ok with being friends, and the whole time you will just be hoping she changes her mind. If you actually want any chance to get in her pants you sadly will have to make it clear you aren’t going to be friends.Otherwise you will just sit in her friendzone forever.Chances are she still won’t change her mind, but a 5% chance is better than 0% with added baggage

>>741635681Really cool when Anons make posts not based in physical reality
I'm 27 and have no friends. I thought I had one for a few years, but that ended up being an illusion. I crave for intimacy but still get as anxious as a scared child when approaching a co-worker or acquaintance of my age with the idea of building friendship… I don't really visit any third spaces outside of work for obvious reasons, but I've been slowly improving these past few months some other personal matters, and once I get my license I’d like to try volunteering at an animal shelter or sanctuary and see if I can maybe meet someone nice in that enviroment outside all the noise. Worst case, I'd still get to spend some time with animals which don't judge me, so worth a try…Hope you bros make it, take care

>>741654575Go on youtube and look up The Healthy Gamer. If you can get over the fact that he's Indian he's super helpful. A big problem with modern therapy is that they aren't allowed, nor incentivesed to actually help you or explain anything. It's like riding a bike. It's simple and easy now because you've learned and have been doing it for years, but actually think about what it takes to ride a bike and your experience when you where a kid and you'll realize riding a bike actually is complicated. Platitudes are interesting because they are shallow foundation that can loop back around to being deep and power solutions if you actually break it down.
>>741656562to help with depression you should seek professional help.My sister has problems with depression and a couple of pills that helps her digest vitamins better helped her a lot. Your problem is probably different though.Also motorbikes are fucking cool and you should most definitely learn how to rise but not to fucking end your life. You can get a cheap japanese used bike that could probably last your whole life at any time btw.

Look at the amount of human shit in this thread whining about not having friends or being socially isolated. Look at the actual nigger filth excrement openly admitting they watch youtube video essays and streamers. Look at all the retards parroting that same tired meme that videogames aren't fun anymore when you live in an age of extreme abundance because your stupid ass actually cares about and pays attention to AAA which was ALWAYS liquid shit intended for normalfags. I know I'll get 7 replies to this calling me edgy or what the fuck ever, fuck all of you niggers, none of you belong here and you are the reason this place is terrible now. I wish all of you hated yourselves as much as you claim, maybe then you'd shut your fucking mouths and not worsen this place with the excrement pouring forth from your rotten normalfag brains. This isn't in /v/ anymore, just rebrand it to not-Twitter.

>>741656228Literally my last job. The boss was a Boomer retard who didn;t understand half the processes at the company and office people and technicians quit left and right. Even the sales fuckers quit and they made the most out of anyone. When I left, a group of technicians wanted to go Union. Boomer REEEs at the idea. The best of the best quit. Company gets sold out to... a Union.I want another Boomer POTUS so bad because I truly believe that dogshit demonic generation will then start to be dragged into the streets and beaten and NOBODY is gonna stop it.
>>741654575>I therapy just a huge meme?Therapy is prostitution for women, it's a judgement-free space where you pay someone to listen to you bellyache and agree with you. Women advertise it all the time because women don't understand what men need and don't actually give a damn what men need. Most depression in the modern Western world comes from being a minority in (what is likely) your native lands and watching the life that was promised you by prior generations squandered on helping people that despise you.

I also ended up in therapy. At some point it is addicting because finally a woman shows interest in you (it's all part of the job) but ultimately it got me nowhere and all the things I ended up DOING either on my own account or by fortunate encounters with the right people have made the changes I needed.Though life is still a struggle, 33 and still very dependent. Preparing myself for an art market, if things go well there might be a turning point in sight, if things don't work out I will be back to the job office for a minwage cafetaria or factory job.Meanwhile I find it hard to pick up games again because I feel like I don't deserve to have a little old fashioned fun.

My whole life has been nothing but disappointment. Nothing I've tried has left me feeling glad I've tried it, so I've given up. Why the fuck should I continue to touch a hot stove when the reaction is pain? I'm fucking through giving myself a chance because every time I do, I get so let down I'm one drink away from blowing my head off with a .45-70.

Doing alright personally. Haven’t been fired from my job yet so that’s good. I just really wish I had friends, proper friends. The one “friend” I have just treats me like a chatbot for him to blogpost to and never asks about my day, and the rest of the “friend group” I’m a part of I just can’t ever seem to relate with or become involved with. I’ve always been an outsider that just sort stumbles awkwardly on his own. I’m just so tired of being alone

>>741659668and you sound like a faggot who doesn't understand what it's like to have a partner in your life mean so much to you, have walked along with you in your life and saw things, experienced things. It's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all, yes, but that love doesn't just disappear, it's like a water pump that lost its piping, the water doesn't just magically stop pumping, it just spurts out and makes a fucking mess flowing at a rate of several kg/lbs per minute.

I feel really comfortable around them and I feel i can be really open about my drinking problem and why. The priest that does aa is actually really down to earth and supportive, there is some slight religious stuff but im looking beyond that. Next meeting, we doing this thing where we play a song about recovery. And im choosing Anthony green "you will be fine" and hope i can show the video too because there's a lot of great imagery in it.
>>741660174I’m not even the same anon you were talking to but glad I made you seethe so hard lmao

>>741659893>but that love doesn't just disappear It does, over time, like everything else. Obviously, not in a month, or maybe even a year, but it will.
>>741658965We make mistakes, we will continue to do so, it's inevitable. But understand that forgiveness of the self is a powerful act and not to be taken lightly. Anyway, I hope you can shake these feelings somehow and don't let the past keep you down too much, it's gone now anyway and hopefully one day you realise that disappointment comes from expecting shit from people or things which is completely out of your control.
>>741660253I actually met the priest before a while back, catholic. I was in line at a convenience store and I had an arm full of beer. He looks and says "that's nit helping you son", and i drove back home deep in thought about it. Like maybe he was right, and the guidance from myself and a girl that I used to work with got me going to aa. She doesnt realize how much she saved me, she was/is a soild person and I knew that when I worked with her. She was always cool, but her being open about her sobriety was something I needed to see and she was the one that gave me the last and first push to go. Realizing that I may be alone, but that doesnt mean that people dont care and see how much alcoholism has effected me and my life.

>>741659861I'm very sorry. My ex and I shared the same fetish, we indulged in it for years, it changed us... maybe not for the healthier but we were living out the lives we wanted, we were living out our fantasies. Literally to get off nowadays requires me to separate her from it in my head (as you know, fetishes are kinks but with an addictive twist, it's just not the same without it). I actually was going out with a really hot girl for a while but I panicked when I tried to be her boyfriend because none of it felt right, I don't think I gave myself enough time, but I'm very afraid it will keep being like this forever. >>741659763>>741660609>>741660406>>741659123I know... I need to, I can't keep going on like this. I started to have daydreams about our old fantasies like 3 days ago... randomly, when I had been doing good for so long. I lapsed on my diet, something she would have loved, and then she calls me out of the blue? What a cruel twist of reality. I'm going to the gym. I haven't had a full meal today but I need to get some good healthy food after the gym, this is a new me I'm trying to build from the ashes of the old. It's just so hard, even when I'm not thinking about her I'm still sad and won't allow my mind to be distracted.
>>741644539>Why do you like old Diana better anon?imagine if they had stuck to the original intent: a more mature, dandere diana. the story would have been far more hard-hitting. perhaps she would have gained her humanity and emotions through her interactions with hugh.in contrast, the diana we got in the 2026 release often acts like a child from the git-go and how interactive was this 'new diana' compared to the original concept. the 'old diana' from the 2020 trailers felt like wife material.>I think they changed her from stoic robot to curious and kid-like somewhere in developmentyeah. i still don't know who to blame for this shift.. the investors or the pushy capcom executives. ideally, they should have released two versions of pragmata.the one they promised and the one we actually got. they could have named the original cut an 'alternative edition.'
>>741634508I can give you a couple suggestions from doctors I've spoken to:The first fund rent had become too expensive to warrant his own clinic. He found success when he shifted to online consolations.The second had spent most of his life being a call-in doctor in a rural area.I don't know if this applies to dentistry, but I hope it helps you take charge of your situation. You have the job experience, so you can try going it alone as an entrepreneur.
>>741660882I can’t say it will get better, maybe easier.I know it may seem impossible, but if you’re capable then the best way to get over a breakup is to unironically try to find someone else because then your brain will realize that she wasn’t all that special to begin with. There’s a reason that rebounding is so common, it’s kind of shitty if you just use the person and then leave them, but it is undeniably effective at lessening the pain
I got bad off here, like drinking 12 packs of Busch ice and yelling, arguing, fighting with my parents. Stealing money, stealing alcohol, etc. I went to rehab, i was there for a week on so much medication to keep me alive to the point I just slept most of the time. And its scary as shit when youre asked about your religion and what God you worship and belong to with a preacher man holding his Bible by your bed. Apparently one night I had a seizure and didn't remember, the homeless dude woke up and got people in there because I Apparently wasn't responding. I woke up with people all around me, had the heart gauge on me.

Maybe I should find someone who DOES want all the things I want as a short term so it's more ethical or leads to less flack. Too bad I'm a fuckable guy but not a 9/10 chad who gets girls to message him back often, online shit like Tinder has only worked out for me once and... well, that's the girl I'm fucking getting over.
>>741630419It sounds weird no matter how you phrase it, but I think there’s some truth to what you’re saying.

I think what bothers me the most is that I’m a loser even by 4chan standards. There’s people in this very thread who have had sex before. Some of them even have had girlfriends. Some of them wives. Some even had kids. And even for the anons that don’t have any of those, some of them at least have friends. They go on discord or whatever and chat up with their friends and play videogames together every so often. I have none of that. I’m a friendless KHHV who doesn’t talk to anyone outside of work. I leave work and it’s like I turn into a robot. I hate my life so fucking much. But it’s the only one I’ve got

>>741660882>I lapsed on my diet, something she would have loved>I'm going to the gym>good healthy foodHuh. Guess fat fetish niggers really are just wired for intense attachment that results in pain. I didn't do any the gaining myself, but she blew up after high school, knew I was into it, and strung me along for years because she hated herself and wanted someone to validate her. Then she found out it's not that difficult to pull guys at that weight, left me in the dust, but still wanted to keep in touch because I was a part of her life for so long. Again - it's not fucking worth it. It will, and likely already has, left you permanently emotionally scarred. Get out before you make it any worse on yourself.>t. >>741659861

>>741663091this is a genuine question, I'm guessing your answer won't deviate from typical reasonable responses to this question but I think the introspection helps; why do you want a gf? Do you long for companionship? A physical relationship? A desire for friendship I think is something every human also doesn't just have but needs to fulfill. I certainly think getting friends should be your first item on the to do list. You also sound like someone with a fair amount of pain and sadness to you, so be careful oversharing your pain to friends you haven't really gotten too close with yet, that's a very easy way to turn someone off. Friends want positive situations to have fun with together, dumping your history or feelings of pain out is a normal desire but makes things unfun and a turnoff. This is a balancing act, do not over share or clam up, middleground.
>>741658842Depends. We say caries/cavities are a multifactorial disease, meaning that only one thing cannot establish the needed conditions for it to show up. The conditions for cavities are>bacteria>substrate >poor hygiene>timeWhich means that for caries to show up in your teeth you need excess bacteria eating sugary stuff for a period of time with poor oral hygiene. This combination of factors (mixed with genetic resistance) is also why some people never really brush or floss yet also never had any cavities (something I always see anons ask me why that happens). This doesnt mean they’re healthy though since gum disease is also a big risk with poor hygiene. So Id say that if you just brush after every meal and dont snack on processed sugary foodstuff, floss once at night or once every other night, you’re good. Couple pointers>dont brush too hard nor with hard bristled tooth brushes, can lead to non carious lesions and gum recessions, brush gently with soft bristles >use a good toothpaste with the appropriate minimum concentration of fluoride - at least 1.000/parts per million - never use activated coal or carbon toothpastes sold as whitening agents >if using mouthwash - dont use stuff with alcohol Any other questions just fire away

>>741664064My college closed the primary social hangout building for "renovations" that will last for four years. I tried joining a sports club, but it was already populated by friend circles and cliques that weren't interested in adding new people, so I got demoralized, it left me behind, and I stopped going.
>>741621439That's a good way to put it, I guess.
>>741658087Finally some high effort bait
>>741664340I cannot possibly comment on how true or not your situation is, but be careful as people with low self esteem will cause you to see more hostility or less kindness than people are actually giving.
>>741664064I am in the exact same shit as you. I have midterm due at 11:30 tonight and I need to bring my self to do it.
>>741664571Close your internet tabs. Consider it a break from /v/ to go grind. Get the work done and then come back. /v/ doesn't change as you know, it will be here when you're done with your work. You will feel so relieved to get that assignment done. You got this, bro
>>741660182you’re not even using that insult right, you seething faggot.
>>741621439I drank over half a bottle of Jameson on Saturday and threw up
>>741662152True!
>>741664193I wish I had anything encouraging to tell you, but it sounds like you've got a really good head on your shoulders and a good attitude, both about your emotions and physical health. Now, if I were self indulgent and spiteful, I'd tell you to give up and do whatever feels good because it sounds like we shared a similar experience and in my world, it's been nothing but pain. I'm 30 now with nothing financially, socially, or romantically to show for it. I cannot and will not date because there's nothing here for anyone to want. Mine wasn't nearly as fetish driven as yours sounds, but the need for one another - or perhaps just one way - sounds pretty familiar. Don't let it get that bad again. Learn and go forward.
>>741664716he will miss an epic xitter screencap thread though
>>741664535It was an archery club. I had taken an archery class the semester before and really liked it, and was decently good at it. So I got my own bow and quiver, but was never able to reproduce the same accuracy and grouping with my own bow no matter how much I practiced. I joined the club but it was mostly populated by people on the archery team, who were both way better than me, with way more complicated equipment, and clearly practicing for tournaments while joking about the gacha games they played together.I could never get the coaches' attention to help me with what I was doing wrong, it stopped being fun, and once they moved the target butts out for long-range tournaments I just stopped going. Why go back to try for long-range if I can't even hit indoor ranges and don't know what I'm doing wrong?
>>741663702thought this was gonna be some smarmy response but it’s actually well thought out and reasonable. good on you anon
>>741664716Cope
>>741664692You're right. Let me get to it.
>>741621506Same, I've wasted all of my chances. All I can do now is just exist, and be a drain on society.
Do you ever feel like you're not a real person? Like, I think there's some x factor other people have that I don't, y'know passion, hobbies, principles. I feel like I'm two-dimensional, just taking up space to fill out the world. A real person wouldn't be okay with just sitting on their ass for days at a time, or not speaking to people for weeks, I think. Sometimes I feel like an automaton, like I'm running on the most basic of settings, only enough to carry out the functions of keeping my body going, but nothing beyond that, like I don't mind not having the full human experience because I wasn't made for it. I don't know, I can't really put words to it better than that. I feel like I'm a fake person.
>>741666550I feel like that sometimes, yeah. Best way I've found to shake that feeling is having a tense day at work. Time-sensitive multitasking is a core part of my job, so you end up shutting everything else out and sort of rebooting from whatever doomposting your inner monologue had going on.
>>741657359digits on /v/ are forbidden
>>741666550I got into an argument with fags on /lit/ on the definition of "hobby" and apparently, scrolling on your ass for 6 hours straight on TikTok is a hobby. I was under the impression that it was passive entertainment
>>741666550Try reading the novel Stoner. it's pleasant and quite short
>>741626868Practice setting boundaries. If you don't, you'll be dealing with this pent-up dissatisfaction for the rest of your career. Yes, setting a boundary may jeopardize your current career, but not setting it jeopardizes your health and any future prospects in your career field. You can't keep rolling over.
>>741659893>flowing at a rate of several kg/lbs per minute.>measuring flowrate by mass instead of volumeLmaoing at the state of (you)
>>741666550I feel like the opposite sometimes, like I'm the only person that's real
>>741667698We all go through that phase.
>>741667391I wonder why would /lit/ hold this opinion...
>>741621439Gettin' by
>>741666550This is called alexithymia/anhedonia. It's caused by inundating yourself with technology and not being bored or being without it for a while. Technology turns off your negative emotion every time you use it. And negative emotion is important for developing an internal sense of identity because that's literally its job. You get burned by fire, experience a negative emotion, learn that you don't actually like fire, or you might actually do, it's an opinion that becomes apart of you from physical action.The more you abuse technology like video games, the more you lose your internal identity and become lost, unknowing what to do. Feeling no joy (anhedonic).The cure is to unplug for a while and be without it until you can build a healthy relationship with it. Once that is done you'll be internally free and be able to pursue hobbies and have., yknow, actual personal principles and opinions and will be better off than half your entire generation.

>>741651173>my faithdo tell
>>741621439>Hangin' in there, /v/?Great! I am older, at peace with my deficiencies, financially stable, and am looking forward to the resumption of certain writing projects. I enjoy my hobbies more wholeheartedly now, without the guilt I sometimes felt as a younger man. I meditate daily and am ill seldom.And most important, I play many hours of vidya weekly! I have learned that you can either transform yourself into living lump of despair, or make youself pretty damn happy.
>>741652683bro you killed like 7 cats in three years>>741653230the guy sounds like an asshole tbqh>Theywut
>>741621439Waiting for gta 6 like everyone else
yup haaaanging in therehaha
>>741669375Yeah I mean if you weren't born in india, the middle east, africa, china, north korea and anything below Texas you have it pretty good.
Middling between thinking and daydreaming about my shitty RPG when I'm at my job and realizing just how much work it is to make a video game, just in general, so I have no idea how I'm gonna do itDeltarune is the most I've looked forward to something in a really long timeIf cannabis didn't go rec in my state I'd probably be in a worse spot than I am now mentally
>>741669592>bro you killed like 7 cats in three yearsEight cats, and if I could've saved them I fucking would've. I can't cure cancer or old age, man. I had most of those cats for 15-20 years. They were my siblings. I miss them all.>TheyI just didn't want to reveal too much about that because it's personal. But I was the asshole there, I jumped to conclusions and panicked and made things worse for no reason. My friend said they would contact me when they're ready to talk again, but it's been a year and a half with nary a peep and there's been nights when I wonder if I was just forgotten about. I don't want to give up on that friendship; I don't think anything could ever replace it.
Finally got a job interview for something I have experience with. They said they could try and fit me into a schedule early so I can start working while they wait for a background check to go through. I left the interview with high expectations.I got home to see they already sent an e-mail saying they weren't going to hire me.

>>741668556>I don't know how life worksDoes anyone know? Remember: the universe doesn't demand you do anything, but watches all with equal interest. You do you and stop worrying about the standards of others.
Is it okay that i dropped out of college?
>>741668946thanks for the 10's kind stranger
I have an interview tomorrowAny tips bros?
>>741670170but apparently everyone has. everyone I see has grown as a person. Just I stand still and there does not seem to be any change left
>>741670343Be yourself :)
>be told that if I go back to school I can get a job>go back to school>I still can't get a jobI fell for a meme, didn't I?
>>741670343caffinate a bit, try and be chill and honest/fluff up the truth where needed. if you have constructive hobbies, keep them in mind
>>741670283if you're okay with it yeah
>>741670343Don't pour salt in your eyes.
>>741670343just be a normie and dont spaghetti
>>741670283Yeah, college blows. Don't worry about it. If you can make it okay, just enjoy life and gallop along. Do you think some rich man's son gives a shit about grades? It's only because people want to "succeed" in the framework that they get so bent out of shape. Do you really want to succeed so other people will pat you on the back (and talk shit behind it), or do you want to have a good, honest time for your own sake?
>>741660253Man i remember those days. all slobs with sob stories looking for attention. if you actually needed the 12 steps to sober up you are a week willed faggot that bought into Bob's scam. god i do not remember listening to all those old faggots reading the big book. hope you dont fall for the cult anon.>t. went to court ordered AA meetings weekly for 2 years.
>>741670112I just can't get behind somebody who would block someone else the second the other guy shows even a hint of vulnerability. That's not a friend to me.>I miss them allpoor kitties

>>741670373I cannot help you. You are a lost soul, drifiting amidst the intersecting perceptions of others.
>>741670590It pisses me off that I'm the only one in my family without a college degree
>>741670879Well fuckin' get one. I've got one and it's lame and a big nothing, and I don't even think about until times like now.
>>741670590sour grapes. you really missed out if you didn't experience being a freshman in college.
>>741621439>got the flu since friday>no energy for gaming>can't lie down without nose getting completely congested>have to sleep sitting up>still wake up every two hours coughing like a tuberculosis patientits over...
Had cough for over a month, now fighting against a stye on one of my eyes while the other one is aching. Still coughing.
>>741670879A degree don't mean shit. What's important is getting a job lined up while you still have college as a connections resource. Otherwise you end up in the "Why weren't you employed during this period?" trap.
>>741671112I was there. People drank. One guy got herpes. A couple horseplaying fags fell out of a window and splatted. A guy got hit by a semi crossing the road because he had his ipod going.Not a big deal. Alcohol is for morons and life and death are the same in college as everywhere.
>>741621506Same. Here's hoping indifference to staying in shape catches up with me sooner than later since I'm too lazy to do it myself.

>>741658662Honestly it might just be a weird fear of falling off or droppin my phone off the bridge.
>>741659013It will hurt a lot but you will learn to appreciate the memories in a melancholic yet grateful way.
>>741672937dont settle and become content in a shit job you hate
>>741672937no matter how shit, you should stay with every job you take for at least a year if you ever want to be hired for something good, they're not going to hire someone who will flake on them in 90 days
>>741670420That's how it's supposed to work, but everything constantly changing and degrading means it's not a guarantee anymore.
