The fact that young men have generationally progressed from asukafagdom (putting gum in the hair of your crush bullying due to inability to express feeling) to makimafagdom (literal sociopath who wants you dead) spells the end.

Thanks anonsama

>>24520731
I wish I had your problem, I'm not writing and I ain't got nothing better to do!

>>24520760
Brother, I hate this. Writing is the most humiliating hyperfixation. I want to be free.

>>24520767
Get published and see if second novel syndrome paralyses you?

>>24520767
I don't understand, how are you not able to stop? Surely you can't be that addicted to an activity which requires such focus, it's not like doing heroin

>>24520772
Nta but Joyce Carole Oates has a kind of epilepsy that forces her to write that many books

kinda enveloped by this summer depression atm

I love Amerikkka.

>>24520772
Brother, trust me you can. The last times it lasted 3 (three (III)) days straight.
>>24520771
I'm not gonna publish it anywhere. That's not even a novel, but a song and I can't sing at all fuck me.

It's just itching my feelings, and the worst part is how many times I repeat it in my head, so I lose track of time. Brothers, I'm not a writer why my brain is so stupid..........

>>24521506
makes me never want to socialize, even after sex, i can't enjoy the memory that much cuz it's just gonna trigger cringe, like if i feel bad for missing out on a chance to fuck i just remind myself it would have been a new cringe memory burned in my brain, like if u think talking to normies is cringe, imagine getting naked and having sex with them, now THAT'S cringe

Wish I was friends with an argumentative & smug twinky guy...

>>24520721 (OP)
I've been watching YouTube videos about the mathematical concepts of different infinities, and I am throughly unconvinced by this shit.

The argument for there being larger ordinal infinities plainly does not make any sense. You cannot add another item to an infinite list.

The cardinal infinities argument is even more confusing to me. The diagonal argument says that no matter how many different decimal expansions you list you can always create another decimal expansion that wasn't included. But isn't that literally already the case with normal infinity? You can already always add another one.

They're making some abstract point about mapping the structure of these sets to each other. But this is not actually bigger infinities is it? It's just saying something about the structure of the sets.

Another thing I don't understand at all is why everyone relates the concept of ordinal infinities to the omega + 1 function in the fast growing hierarchy. The omega +1 function is just a recursive diagonalization thing. It's not even remotely the same idea as the incomprehensible "adding another item after the end of an infinite list" thing.

What textbook do I have to read to understand these things?

I'm so tired of woman's shit bros. They're pretty, and I like boobies, and they make my eyes and dick happy, but they are so fucking bad for everything else. Women are a trap bros. Their beauty is the equivalent of the anglerfish's lure.

>>24521590
you jest but I was not kidding. I saw my father once a year, mother once a month and mother was drunk half of the time she was present, talking in foreign language and calling me the kind of stuff that lead me to having trust issues today.

>>24521606
I can't even goon enjoyably any more. Post nut clarity is too strong with me; I realize how disgusting and gross it is when I'm done and I'm just laying there breathing all heavy alone with my jizz all on my hands.

I know that feel, anon; and while I can't recommend any books for it I do wanna give my 2 cents on the matter: Does it matter if the argument is unconvincing as long as it's formally sound?
Take 0.999... equalling 1, that sure seems unintuitive (to me) but you arrive to that conclusion via normal algebra, and isn't that the criterion we wanna use instead of if it "feels right"? Just examine each step in the conclusion for validity and then blindly accept whatever output it produces.

In modern bodybuilding the ideal is now to have an "X frame" by massively overdeveloping your legs. They look truly monstrous.

>>24521727
Modern bodybuilding is fucked. It got fried by people optimizing for competition instead of trying to look good and healthy like Silver Era-bodybuilders and before. Look at Steve Reeves here >>24521697 and compare to the bloated Mr. Olympia you posted. Who the fuck wants to look like the latter? People will train for these bodybuilding shows and do stupid shit like get striated glutes, never asking themselves who the fuck wants to see striated glutes, much less on a dude. They'll take a billion grams of roids and starve themselves to 1% bodyfat and instead of looking like big, strong lads, they look weird and offputting and gross.

> the sex of an individual usually is determined by a pair of sex chromosomes. Typically, females have two of the same kind of sex chromosome (XX), and are called the homogametic sex. Males typically have two different kinds of sex chromosomes (XY), and are called the heterogametic sex.[1] In humans, the presence of the Y chromosome is responsible for triggering male development; in the absence of the Y chromosome, the fetus will undergo female development. In most species with XY sex determination, an organism must have at least one X chromosome in order to survive.

If you ever see one of these guys in person they look insanely impressive. It's like being around a gorilla or something, its hard to describe the presence they have.

I agree that it looks disgusting lol but you can't really just make bodybuilding a beauty pageant. It needs some actual objective metrics which is why they focus on size and conditioning and completeness.

It's also insanely unhealthy obviously

>>24521938
I don't think it's funny. I saw you post :( and told you to spit it out. You're making me angry.

>>24521947

Okay, if you were just curious then you should’ve been satisfied after I directly told you why I was sad, so why would you even think to respond by sating “I love you; you can trust me”? Like, a normal person who isn’t trying to mislead and upset other people wouldn’t do that. Why the fuck would you say that you love me and that I can trust you in response to a random forum post that you have no reason to believe was written by anyone you know? That’s so clearly trolling. What is wrong with you? Like what fucking motivates you to do this mean-spirited and deceptive shit?

There is no existence more cucked than that of an Indian man in a conservative household

>>24521963
>after I directly told you why I was sad
I went back and read your response. Sorry I misread what you wrote. I thought the "this" in your post was referring to me saying "spit it out." This was all a big misunderstanding.

>>24521984
Okay, so you weren’t actually the person who posted >>24521626?

>>24522032
yeah i'm thinkin based

>>24522063
I did post that, but what I was saying is that you can trust me in regard to telling me why you posted the sad face emoticon. That's what I meant. I'm not going to use what you say against you because I'm not a manipulative person.

>>24522070
But why the fuck would you say that you love me? What is wrong with you? There is literally no reason for you to post that response outside of trolling and being manipulative. You aren’t funny. Fuck off.

>>24522076
I wasn’t trying to be funny. I just wanted you to feel comfortable opening up to me. You mentioned that normal people wouldn’t act that way unless they were trying to mislead or upset someone, but I’m not a normal person. Everything I’ve said has been honest. No games, no hidden meaning. Just the truth. (｡◕‿‿◕｡)

>>24522087
No, you aren’t being honest. You’re deliberately being misleading. Why should I open up to you about anything? Fuck off and stop making fake and deceptive posts about how you want to “confess your love to someone who posts ITT” and all of this shit to troll people and give them false hope. You know exactly what you’re doing, and it’s incredibly mean-spirited.

I got invited to this bbq by my next door neighbor and agreed to attend since it’s right outside our building and I had nothing going on. Thought there would be more people there but it was my 70 yo boomer neighbor, her 28 yo daughter, and their 2 friends. We sat in a circle and they passed around a blunt lol. I didn’t smoke the blunt because it wasn’t my thing and I kinda just sat there staring into space because I couldn’t think of much to say to this group who already knew each other pretty well. I did reply with safe answers whenever they asked me some kind of question or made some remark when that included me though. Didn’t sperg out or anything but I realized I’m just pretty boring and don’t know how to include myself into conversations unless someone starts one with me. Thought I’d do better because I’ve looked up how to act socially, and I’m physically fit and don’t dress like a weirdo but I guess not. Not really sure what to do though because this has always been my nature. Probably gonna be the last chance I get to talk to anyone because I don’t have any social hobbies and my lifestyle doesn’t enable me to meet people. I’m not gonna pretend to give a shit about dancing or whatever on the off chance I could meet someone in a dance class or whatever

>>24521978
Arranged marriages sound so bizarre to me even though I know they have also existed in the premodern west as well. Imagine meeting a woman who is for all intents and purposes a complete stranger to you, and the entire subtext of your meeting being "if things go right, I guess I'll have no choice but to keep nutting in you until you get pregnant". You could argue that the subtext of western-style dating is the same, that you'll have sex if things go well, but there is a plausible deniability to it at least, that you might just be there to have fun, and also that both of you are there because you want to be there. With arranged marriage, you have neither excuses.

>>24522101
I get the feeling you’ll never quite believe me, no matter what I say, and that’s alright. I meant every word though, especially when I said I wanted to confess my love to someone who posts here. But if that kind of thing stirs the waters a bit too much, I’ll hold back on the love talk in this thread. Wouldn’t want to cause any trouble... if that's what you don't want.

>>24522119
No. You didn’t mean it. You don’t “love” a random stranger on the internet in any meaningful way, and you know damn well that saying “I love you” has a specific and emotionally loaded meaning that goes far beyond offering general emotional support and encouragement to someone you don’t personally know. And if you actually loved a specific person you know irl who posts ITT, then you would act like an adult and tell them so directly instead of vagueposting here to amuse yourself by giving false hope to people who are lonely. Go away.

>>24522032
It's not the porn that disgusts me. The women are hot. The sex is hot. What disgusts me is that when you are done you see how much of a disgusting loser you are alone, with your jizz-leaking shrinking dick, in your sorry state of post-nut clarity.

>>24522126
You don't think you can love someone based on their posts? No one truly knows 100% of another person, but you can still love them for what you do know of them. I do love people for what I know of them.

>>24522129
Idk girls watch videos of guys jerking off. If you have a nice body it's quite possible they would just find it arousing if they saw you in that context. Do you think girls are pathetic and gross when they masturbate?

Not that I'm telling you you should masturbate. Its a totally pointless activity

I lack self-control. If a girl teases me, then I might go to jail.

>>24520721 (OP)
My mind has been in a very deep and dark place lately. One of my lady friends is about 20 weeks pregnant and is planning to name the child after me.

That's all said and done. But when I was reading Gantz chapter 373, which is one of her favorite mangas and inspirations in life, I noticed something very particular on how the alien said the female character Reika would be reborn 18 years from now along with the clone Kei as her child. That always got to me thinking about a potential underlying Jocasta complex that she might've had in the series. But when I got to thinking on how often I saw my mother in her with her constant infatuation of having a son and getting pregnant to just "get over it" and not spoil the last of her eggs into her mid-30s, it got to me thinking if she, the friend, had anticipated this the entire time. Or if I naturally am predisposed to come across women who develop an overzealous infatuation with me, contrary to what their estrus cycle or what their friends and family think. Who knows.

Bottom line, you can argue I'm reading too much into it. But I have to wonder if [some] women feel so deeply into men for no reason. It's very abstract.

Six months. What the fuck is wrong with me?

>>24522440
6 months ago, I was in jail. There were big guys with tattoos who beat me up every hour, and all they gave me to eat was moldy poop with dead spiders in it.

I've felt my brain getting zoomerified.
I can't stand even a second of boredom anymore. Help me. Tasukete friends.
Like I feel physically restless when I'm bored. This is fucking awful.
How do I non zoomerify my brain?

Why were the what's on your mind threads shut down?

>>24522478
I don't see why you need to do that, sir.

>>24522494
Because it's causing me problems while focusing on literally anything.

>>24522467
Did I ask? Take your disgusting shitposts somewhere else.

>>24522499
Change your perspective.

>>24522502
I answered your question.

>>24522518
No, you didn’t. It was a rhetorical question directed at myself. You lack reading comprehension.

This is guerilla ontology.

I dance for about an hour before going to bed every night. Try it, girls and men. Put on music and dance.

>>24522566
I cry for about an hour before going to sleep each night. Introducing such a change into my current routine seems unfeasible.

Recently I have become convinced that my sense of self is unreal.
The first reason this happened is because of an argument. We have our sense of identity when waking, but when we dream, we seem to be variations of ourselves, or even different people entirely. The only thing which unifies the various people we are when waking and when dreaming is the perspective, or the personal horizon, or the raw ability to experience, which contains the senses of identity, memories, thoughts, and so on. Your subjectivity, at its most fundamental, is independent of everything else you perceive yourself to be, because it is prior to all of that, and necessarily so.
The second reason is because I experienced the detachment between identity and awareness. Several times, actually. It starts with my hands feeling oddly heavy. Next I lose feeling in my legs, then my chest. My head starts feeling very heavy. I then feel a strong sense of vertigo, like gravity is changing direction, and finally, a sense of something breaking. At this point everything being reported by my senses seems to be a projection onto a movie screen, not something I identify with myself. I then turn my attention inwards, and have the sense of seeing the back of my own eyeball, in a way - I notice the origins of my own thoughts, seeing them as external things. Finally, all experience (including the experience of thinking) detaches, leaving me with awareness of my own awareness and nothing else. Eventually, I randomly snap back into my body, sometimes losing a bit of time without any memories from the gap.
Are Buddhists or Hindus right about the self? I'm not sure. I definitely don't experience any grand unifying oneness with Brahman or supernatural insight during these episodes (though using the words "I" and "experience" in this context doesn't seem right). I've had a couple episodes where a vestigial part of me felt like it could move "sideways" and slip into the sense-identity-experience of someone else, but when fully myself this seems like schizo nonsense.
On a side note, I have had a very hard time telling the difference between my dreams and my memories lately. I have to think about the events that preceded and followed each memory and make sure they make sense, or find a physical record of the event in question. I've also had the experience of a dream-memory-self "bubbling up" from inside me while awake, where the person I was during a remembered dream floated to the top and was superimposed over me for a second. So far I'm still fully functional and (by all appearances) sane but this is a worrying sign.

>>24522572
That sounds bad for your eyes.

>>24522578
I’m sure it is, but it really can’t be helped.

>>24522575
You're real to me :)

I just got really embarrassed about my entire existence for a moment. Like I pictured myself walking somewhere I go all the time and thought surely I must look ridiculous doing this. It's passed though.

>>24522575
>The second reason is because I experienced the detachment between identity and awareness.
May be caused by trauma, like so many things.
You could read research on dissociative disorders

There is something which justifies the rest of existence, all its agony and hurt, in the dying screams of its splendor, in the calm moments of the morning sunrise, and the quickening pulse of the blood

I read your posts. I see you.

>>24522712
There's another general on this site where someone said the other day they always know which posts are mine O_O

>>24520721 (OP)
Some one who is too much of a dogmatist is not for the practical humanities like anthropology or sociology.
You can't have good research when everything must be twisted to fit some forgone conclusion.

>>24522720
You're a good boy. Write more posts for us.

>>24522676
Sure, I guess, but I haven't experienced anything traumatic.

I've heard that people are overly suspicious of each other in this day and age. It might be the case we need to see the noise, not the signal.

>>24522726
I just made another in the other general :)

I find it kind of funny how puritans are caricatured as these weird sexless prudes when almost every famous american puritan who was married had like 8+ children according to their wikipedia pages. So evidently, they were anything but undersexed. In fact, they probably had more sex than the average married couple in our hedonistic modern age. They just didn't believe that sexuality had any business leaving the confines of the marital bed.

>>24522356
no

>>24522775
You know as well as I do that's not what most people today mean by 'sex.' They're talking about quantity of people, exploring one's kinks, and wish-fulfillment.

new tactic for alleviating anxiety: I imagine some of my fictional inspirations and real heroes and think, "would this guy be worried about this? no" and it's actually been working well so far.

Our flesh craves sex because reproduction is a form of biological immortality. Each generation represents a temporary triumph over the omnipotence of death for the generation before it, defiance in the face of undefeatable entropy, life in the face of death. That which is subject to ephemerality can't help but yearn for eternity.

>>24522796
unfortunately my inspirations aren't fictional and were all probably more anxious than i am

I consume all of my shit in English. I don't give a shit anymore. Fuck those retards. This national language was not the language of my ancestors. So why should I care about being a traditional man? Fuck this shit. I'll be a metropolitan without any remorse. Between two foreign languages I choose English.

it's like 5am i woke up at like 3:45 and listen to some shitty audible podcast called "the burnout generation" that i thought would put me to sleep but being a podcast not an audiobook it's of course designed to be an attention magnet that keeps u engaged, annoying

>>24522903
There is some that seem to be jerk off material, but some of them just seem really out of place. I can understand jacking off to weird things as they need not be explicitly sexual, but I struggle to see why it would be such a big thing.

Quid putas te dixisse, misera bestiola? Scisne quis ego sim? In summo ordine legionarum Romanarum educatus sum et in innumeris expeditionibus secretis contra hostes Imperii interfui. Tria centena hostium propriis manibus necavi. Doctus sum in arte pugnae silvestris et arcus meus mortem fert silentio. Tu nihil es nisi lutum calcandum. Te delebo cum tali arte ac diligentia qualem hic mundus numquam vidit. Dum loquimur mandata dantur nuntiis meis qui te iam ex umbris observent. Oculus tuus non videbit diem crastinum. Ventus adest pro nihilo te paratum. Ego ubique esse possum. Interficere te possum septuaginta modis antequam primam preces tuam finias. Non solum artem mortis calleo sed et imperium habeo in omnia tela legionis meae quae ad tuam perditionem converto. Si sapientiam habuisses linguam tenuisses. Sed non potuisti et nunc poenam lues. Furiam meam super te effundam sicut aquae Rubri Maris. Submergeris. Mortuus es puerule.

Almost forty days since I started playing the piano. Feels good man. Since then I have gone back to the gym and started developing two other skills. It started all the way back December 31st. when I had a moment of calm among my neurosis and realized that not only I had to try, I also wanted to. Or maybe it started on that first week of January, when I decided to finally learn french. Or during that quiet night on March when I felt shame about having wasted another day and cracked a book open at 2 a.m. as a way of making it count. Maybe it was during all those times I skipped one of these activities for a few days and still pushed myself to get back at it, again and again. Maybe it was when I aknowledge to myself that I was given a bad hand and raised among cruelty but that it didn't condemn me in any way to a sad life as a husk. Maybe it was when I looked at my fears, depression and self-doubt and realized that those things are alien to me and were assimilated from external sources, ones which didn't have my best interest in mind and shouldn't be heard. Maybe it was every day when I went to sleep feeling sadness and grief while thinking of myself as some hopelessly wretched creature tied to a bleak fate. Maybe it was because despite that I always tried again the next day. Maybe it was when my horrible, gargantuan fears got a little bit smaller day after day.
I still struggle with all of those things today, but I am thankful. I feel alive, even if it's a small and fragile kind of life.

Considering that the most /lit/ irl discussions I had in the last five years or so were with my gf blaming her parents for "being unable" to read or a model I dated commenting during a trip to the bookstore about how she had all the colleen hoover coomnovels and giving me the fluoride stare every time I showed her a very famous classic, at this point I would be content with anyone who knows that Bolaño is a person and not some hispanic dish.

>>24523595

To be fair I actually knew a /lit/ woman back in 2018; probably the smartest woman I have ever met. She was also amoral and hopelessly addicted to popular self-help books. She constantly flirted with me and one of our uni teachers despite being in a relationship and the last I know of her she was part of some richfag's scam centered on selling pre-built properties in the shitty parts of town to the poor.

Consciousness is a continuum. It is ever present, under different names like laws of nature, chemical reactions, biological functions, and at a certain degree, self-consciousness. But I'm still not certain about anything on this topic. Much reading to do still.

oh yeah, you can definitely do that if you can prove you can‘t afford it

I mean, there probably will never be a definitive explanation or answer, so it‘s all more or less speculative anyways. But it‘s fun to think about. How are you liking the magic book so far? I‘ve skimmed it a bit and as far as I could tell, it‘s about how focus and faith gives it weight and thus basically makes it real in a way? Like a self fulfilling prophecy.

>>24523637
No, fuck you. Fuck you and every last retard who blew in here from xitter or who knows where. The original idea behind these threads was to WRITE, that is, put fucking EFFORT into writing about one's thoughts, to practice writing in prose or verse and improve one's skills, not to shit out a million posts about the most banal bullshit ever conceived. Scroll up and look at this thread. There's no effort here, just endless fucking retards so brain-fried from DUDE WEED LMAO they think anyone gives a shit about their all lowercase ironic nonsense posts. Fuck you. You and your kind are a plague that drives the collective quality of the board straight to the bottom.

>>24523711
Chill, people need a place to vent. How about instead of throwing a tantrum you write a good post instead?
Be the change you want to see or something lmfao.

>>24523671
so far so good. He's defined magic as purportedly efficacious ritual performed outside the jurisdiction of dominant religious authority, and performed privately as opposed to publicly as liturgy. The privacy and secrecy of magical ritual leads to the mistrust of it by the ignorant public, except insofar as they can use the magician to their own benefit as a sort of professional provider of magical services and consultation on their behalf. Now he's going into the attributes of magicians and especially their nervous constitution, similar to the concept if the spirit medium, and how some are born with it, others develop it through other factors during life, like initiation into a magical order, or severe psychological stress. Good stuff really.

>>24523723
>nervous constitution
does he explain what exactly he means by that? like the alignment with a certain frequency (for lack of better word)?

>>24523715
>Chill, people need a place to vent
No they fucking don't. There's no law that says people need a place to post stupid trifling bullshit like this thread is fucking filled to the brim with.

>>24523740
There is also no law that says I can‘t. Thats the beauty of artistic freedom, people can just claim every post is experimental poetry or prose. What you gon do bout it?

>>24523727
Kind of, honestly, it's funny because he's basically describing what today gets classified as mental illness, schizophrenic/autistic characteristics: socially awkward, makes people feel uncomfortable, jittery and jumpy, very asocial, 'epileptic' fits and ekstasies, cataleptic states, the list goes on and on.

I am here, but I wish I wasn’t.

>>24523746
yeah, I‘ve heard about cultures that see these people as seeers, mediums, prophets, etc
basically powers, not handicap
but that opens up a whole box of crap for /x/schizos to claim them choking their mom for vacuuming at 10am on a saturday is because they are a very special guy thats just too sensitive for this world and nobody understands them (read, does what they want and never compromises their comfort)
but it is an interesting concept, I mean, if consciousness is actually emergent in the way Reinhold or Kant suggests (amongst many others ofc), then that suggests that consciousness created snd thus shapes reality, which means faith and focus would have the power to influence and change it, iow making magical thinking real

boo hoo

>>24523808
Understandable. Honestly twitter is pretty gay I just use so I can kind of form community with like minded people. I like /lit/ one million times better but I never really know who I'm talking to or if it's even the same person. But maybe it's better that way since you always start fresh with every interaction. And even on twitter nobody really gives a shit about what I think anyways.

>>24523820
I have nothing against it, I just never got into using it. I do appreciate the anonymity, I find that sometimes conversations can get a bit recursive when you know you are talking to the same person. Almost like you build rapport over a topic and then you get a bit constricted by that. You know, in my mind you are now the esoteric kantianism guy from lit, but we might be discussing a totally different topic together on another board and we might never find out. We might get tied up in a total slapfight. Thats a bit funny to me. Then again, maybe I am just mentally ill and avoid any kind of social interaction that isn‘t strictly anonymous and come up with elaborate copes to make it sound a bit less pathetic.

Make a new one

My little brother died last week. A fucking drunk driver killed him so badly my parents won't even allow me to see his body. This honestly really makes me feel like I should just die as well like what's the point now. To make matters worse, earlier today, I just sharted in my pants and undies.

>>24523861
