Race is one thing but I'm always befuddled by how much knowledge so many 4chan users have about phenotypes and subethnicities. ex.
>You guys like this German/Chinese/etc. person?
>They're actually [obscure type of ethnic tribe] mixed with [obscure genetic phenotype], do better next time

and they not only know the names but they know the histories too, like what the fuck. Maybe I just don't get it because I'm mixed race and don't look deeper than race, and at most nationality.

I can't help but stress over not being able to combine drawing or making visual art with writing. I've tried drawing, digital painting and modelling. I don't like comics or visual novels.
I need to find a format which works. :(

Personally, I don't even identify with humans. Maybe not even organic material. At most I identify with kinetic energy.

They were bullying me at school today. I was called a "clanker" just because I wear glasses.

>>24668474
Write a novel and illustrate it? Or make it a visual novel. These are the options besides comic books.

>>24668461 (OP)
this place sucks it always has filled with sudo intellectuals and nazis larping as someone with thoughts worth having. It used to have like 1 or 2 vaguely cool posts a day and now it's like stepping in dogshit. Why is there nowhere cool online anymore, how am i supposed to be a shut in

>>24668466
Unironically one of my favourite albums. Actually, fuck you, because now I need to listen to it.

How do you prepare for death? Is it even possible?

>>24668601
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovere'd country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience doth make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action.

Somebody who is very skilled and knowledgable about the publishing industry has recommended that I try to put the first book of my big story on Substack. It's interesting to see this because this was already an idea I'd had in mind for a few years, but they confirmed it's probably the best venue for it given its length and the oddity of the story I'm telling.

Now I guess I'll need to try and build an audience. It's going to take a lot of praying.

I am drinking a cup of green tea, im half way in.
I feel like im thrown right into the crux of life, yet im completely calm. Also, colours are just slightly exagerated, yet it doesnt bother me at all. I like it. I have problems with stress so i think this will help. I think im gonna drink it every morning, might even replace my morning coffee with it
Apparently it has a lot of health benefits, too

I know I would be better off dead, but I don't have the courage to kill myself, so I must continue to suffer.

>>24668461 (OP)
My gut boils with the lamentations of last nights pizza, and as I came into work, barely alive, I notice Friday's iced coffee sitting there. I'll probably drink it, partially because I'm lazy, but mostly because I hate myself.

at least we'll always have when we saw each other on the bus, spent the next 20 minutes stealing glances, but no one said anything before one of us got off, and we never saw each other again

Am I an alcoholic if I drink 5-6 beers every night? I always thought it would be cool to be an alcoholic I'm not sure I qualify.

factual. the internet sucks ass basically. i might go on discord and just chill in programming channels or whatever they call a discord channel. now most open source and tech stuff has codes of conduct so u won't get some autistic blowhard ripping u a new one for asking a question. probably comfier than this cringehole.

Why would you say that? You know nothing about me. Seems you feel entitled to be here. You arent. You can choose to be here, but regardless of who you are and what you contribute, you will be replaced, life will go on, and you'll be forgotten. Real anons are here forever. There is no where else, not out of tribalism, but by structure, regardless of intention. You seem to think making a dramatic complaint people will mourn your loss. They wont even know you were ever here.

>>24668576
You complain about that which you have the capacity to change. Lets uplift this place brother. Let's infuse our posts with art and energy. We will, through sheer will, propel this board into a Renaissance. A golden age.

>>24668927
Can't go wrong with Good Will Hunting and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, especially since you're a browser of /lit/, so those movies should be right up your alley.

>mad god
Is that the insane Dante's Inferno but claymation thing? I thought I hallucinated that movie. My vote is for Princesses Bride, but that's nostalgia. Like the other anon ssaid, Ichi the Killer is one of my favorites as a weird guro, and both Good Will Hunting and Eternal Sunshine are like "good" movies. Apocalypse Now is also great, but a bit heavy.

>>24668941
Good Will Hunting is aggressively mediocre

>>24668955
Also, JIN ROH HOLY FUCK. Love that one.

>>24668961

It is, but for the personality types and people on /lit/, it's a surefire self-insert guilty pleasure.

>>24668963
Before I say snarky things, why do you think that?

>>24668965
I take no pleasure from that fart-sniffing slop, guilty or no

>>24668927
I do this but with ebooks, so far I've got 100+ books to read

>>24668966
I think only the opening and closing sequences are effective, personally. The rest of the movie is pretty dull. The red riding hood analogy is yawn-provoking. I really don't want to have this opinion. I went into the movie wanting to love it

>>24668974
Fair, good read. I mostly watch movies in the background as spectacle; I just nap or dick on my phone in the middle. Angel Cop, however, is the real deal. Personally I go for both the subs and the dub at once; two very different movies.

>>24668978
Angel Cop seems fun. Do you want to be bfs

>>24668978
>I mostly watch movies in the background as spectacle;
embarrassing. are you my mom?

>>24668980
No, I just dont care about plot. If I want a riveting story, I'll read. I watch movies to see elaborate special effects and things that make me say "holy shit", just like I play videogames for good gameplay with strong mechanics. A plot needs to be earned, and I'm here to be entertained. Like Bullet to the Head. Came in expecting slow motion gunkata, left traumatized and genuinely feeling something. If I'm expected to use my brain, the bar is pretty high because I studied film.

>>24668979
Best friends? Sure. The subs are a very nuanced and political thriller with interesting philosophical undertones. The dub is like the schlockiest b movie imaginable. Together? A masterpiece.

The only thing that keeps me going is seeing cute boys in my university classes

Random memory: I got so rough and skinny looking at the height of the last couple years of my drug addiction, that one time when I went to meet this Mexican runner for the cartels to pick up some H, after I got in the car and he looked at me, he offered to buy me a pizza, as we were meeting in the parking lot of a plaza right in front of a pizza place. I declined, and told him I had food at home, it wasn't an issue of starving because I was blowing all my money on drugs, I just wasn't eating because of the meth, but it was a really kind gesture. Looking back on it, I must have looked really bad for a guy like that to offer, haha. Gonna have to put that in a book someday. dont steal pls

I've spent the last year working on...I guess we can call it a novella. I have most of the thing done and I'm at a point where I want feedback. I tried to get feedback from AI, and right away I notice it(multiple different ones) praise it in a very over the top way. Now I assume AIs are programmed to drive engagement so of course they think everything you right is profound. This annoys me because I don't want to get gas lit into thinking this writing is amazing.
I'm very new to /lit/ and don't quite know if I should start my own thread and post what I have or if I should find a specif thread.

It's impossible to live in the present; you need a to be completely intuitively. Descartes was wrong you think but you aren't (even though this was more ontological and didn't refer to a moment exactly, more to the affirmation of being) because the act of thinking is slower than the moment therefore that state of you no longer exist

>>24669266
This is what the writing general is for babes.

>>24669266
It does gaslight you. Hard. I'm of upper mid powerleve and it keeps finding very specific peer groups to stick me at the top of.

One of the things I love about this board is when someone is subject to knowledge check. Often the victim will vanish forever, either eternally over it or scolded sufficiently. Sometimes they'll return for a few petty snipes. My favorite is when they lose their humanity entirely and enter the autismal apex.

>>24669281
I saw that general
1. I don't know if I should post the whole thing in the thread.
2. each chapter has too many characters to fit in a single post.
3. Pastebin is shit and sets it to private so that does not work.
Right now my idea is to take a screenshot of each chapter, but that is 7 posts.

I wish it was the 60s I wish we could be happy

Girl I'm interested (more like obsessed, been dreaming about her multiple times) in was in a relationship until recently. I've been wanting to get with her for forever. She likes me and I like her, other people have commented on how good our chemistry, we get along really well. This girl has also done porn and cammed in the past, and she's alluded to having been sexually abused as a child. Anyway, I wanted to ask her out this week; today she hit me up, wanted to do something with a friend of mine and her, I said yes. We meet up, have fun, then she takes us to her apartment. At some point she just randomly tells us how shortly after her break up (about 3 weeks ago) she was about to holler at an old acquaintance (didn't even call him friend) of hers for sex, but then decided against it because she had other things to do. That hit me way harder than expected, I was absolutely disgusted when she told me that; I can excuse things that are the past, but I don't want anything from a girl that still behaves like that. I thought I had no more standards but turns out I have. She's a nice and kind girl but that's just too much for me. The upside down crosses and bloody crucifix she has in her apartment don't help.
If this makes me a bitter incel chudcel nazi, then so be it.

I've been an unfaithful man. I have been a scoundrel, a liar. And I think my gf is done with my shit this time.

>>24669536

>>24669536
I'm never unfaithful. You get 100% of me or 0% of me, I dont do this whole "pine over another girl while dating one in the first place" nonsense. I'll look at tiddies and ass all I damn well please, but no trifling skank is worth more than my integrity, but less than enough to break up with current thing on the spot.

Do better anon.

almost 35 y.o. and I've never been in a relationship and had a gf

Loathing is not the overflowing of negative emotions towards things but rather the complete absence of any abstract sense of kinship or compassion. It is not the "I hate you", but rather the "I have nothing at all to do with you".

‘i’m really not into rollercoasters. scared of heights.’
‘oh yeah what are you on the teacups then?’

>‘that’s where the real action is.’
why?

>>24669566
>I'm not really into rollercoasters. I feel fairly safe, litigants have made sure of that, and if I were to die my family would rake in the dough, but there's something deeper. To ride a rollercoaster is to both roll and coast. I may roll, but I never coast. I barely even glide.

Do you guys review or make a short personal essay or notes on the things you read, watch or even play?
If you do, is it immediately after or you take some time to gather your thoughts?

>>24669615

I do sometimes make notes, but I don't know how I can rigorously determine when something is worth writing down

You are not here.

Oddly enough, I feel far more confident when I write in English than I do when I write in my native tongue. I guess it's because I don't have such a visceral connection to English as I do to the language I spoke since I was old enough to speak. I can barely write a sentence in the latter without thinking "does this sound good, doesn't this sound awkward when phrased this way?" I never had such issues with English.

>>24669732
Sup gworl wyd??

>>24669650
This will be the chorus of our anthem.

>>24669769
I feel the same way, especially regarding certain subject matters. I would feel very awkward trying to discuss philosophy, programming, analysis of certain books, etc in my native tongue, as I have only really read about those subjects in English. However, I find that when I want to talk about something like nature or school, those are much easier to discuss in my native language since I have rarely discussed them in English.

>>24669784
Can you just shut the fuck up for once?

So couple of months ago I refused a job offer. Pay was low, colleagues were assholes joking at my expense even on the first day and boss is an asshole. There was a clause if i didnt stay with the company for 1.5 years I would have to give them back 4k euros. If i signed it and couple of months or a year down the road I was stuck with colleagues who bully me and incredibly stressful work and I couldnt even quit because of the clause, i would contemplate ending it. I already have couple of years of experience and those were terrible. In my first company I worked 12+ a day weekends UNPAID and when I demanded to be paid boss started mocking me, bullying me, lying to me and ultimately kicking me out of the company. Second company I ended up 3 times on sick leave cause of the burnout, first of which was in the first week. That's why I'm weary of singing anything like that clause. Am I wrong for declining the offer? Keep in mind i interview constantly and send out tons of applications. I work in IT

>>24669811
good lord where do you live?

>>24669820
In the pearl of mediterranean
Look man i dont know whether they would be assholes to me but in my previous companies they definitely were and I thought i can't take any chances with the clause cause if i was forced like a slave to work there even though it was bad for me, that would really fuck me up
I dont know if im exaggerating, ( im definitely not exaggerating the previous experiences i wrote though)
The thing is, parents say i should've taken the offer

>>24669828
cards on the table i can see why your parents might want you out the house idk if you have some issues or something (why are your colleagues bullying you?) but low salary PLUS a 4k clawback sounds like golden handcuffs.

Perhaps random thoughts are just the whispers of the collective unconscious getting stuck on the net of your own consciousness.

>>24669856
The only past colleague who bullied me was some fucking lunatic who came into my last company while i was already there, at the greetings he asked me are you for palestine or israel i shit you not thats the first thing he asked me after shaking hands. He started bossing me around even though hes brand new at the company and started criticizing my work without actual reason for it. Hes a total asshole. He bullied me in calls saying like "i told you thats done so and so" even though he barely explained anything to me, he did that with very aggresive voice too, in front of my boss. For some reason boss likes him, maybe because psychopathy recognizes one another.
In that one i refused they started joking at my expense the very first day because of my smoke breaks and i just did them cause i wanted to calm down cause it was stressful for me. I do have mental issues but as you can see from the posts they are in a huge majority the result of inconsiderate, stupid and outright vile people i had to deal with. Spiritually my grit is strong, my will to live also and i am a hopeful and good hearted person so at the core im still intact but im definitely wounded mentally from all the shit i had to deal with

>>24669850
in what way, what happened

>>24669879
Seems like you are causing friction. That's just banter and you have low social skills, not as a judgement, but as an honest critique. They value you, they value their relationship, you do not and so they recognized this then treated you as such.

>>24669851
>Get a fucking grip you retard
I'm starved for female affection, what can I say? But I've already distanced myself, don't worry.

>>24669913
stop trying to gaslight me, it won't work
i literally never ever caused friction at that company, but when someone pushes me around i wont tolerate it, and when i didn't tolerate it they pretty clearly let me know they would rather have a psychopath in the company than me

>>24669916
that witch just might be the worst companion i could imagine for anyone.
oh, and just so you know the recurring dreams about her might be a spell she put on you. im not joking bro, i had that same thing happen to me, i was once texting this girl and i dreamt some girl the next night and afterwards she sent me her photo for the first time and that was the same girl from my dream. she also had tattoos and piercings, all of the red flags. So that's some shithousery right there, and it probably is in your case too
I never had a gf in my life and even I would never ever even consider coming 2 meters in front of that girl, that shit could literally ruin your life for a couple of years, especially if youre a sensitive guy like i am and most of the /lit/izens

>>24669919
You're causing the same friction right now that you caused at your company. You implied value judgements about the nature of their being and acted accordingly. This is the "low social skills" part. Someone with high social skills would recognize the israel palestine thing is a shit test to assess the nature of your being. The answer itself is secondary, unless he had am obviously jewish name this is evident. He was checking to see if you were a snitch and if you were trustworthy. You failed. Someone with high social skills would have done one of three things: acquired his opinion before responding, diffused the tension of the situation by making a joke and changing the subject, or use this as an opportunity to calibrate on what is and isnt acceptable in context. You sperged about the situation; exactly as bad as going on a rant about the jews or gazans or whatever. Says under pressure you'll crumble.

What was the position if you dont mind me asking? Like general title or job function.

>You implied value judgements about the nature of their being and acted accordingly. This is the "low social skills" part.
this is the "being a reasonable being" part
>Someone with high social skills would recognize the israel palestine thing is a shit test to assess the nature of your being.
I dont shit test and wanna get shittested by anyone, especially my colleagues at work. I'm there to do my job and go home. Shittests are for roasties
> He was checking to see if you were a snitch and if you were trustworthy. You failed.
I am not a snitch, i never snitch on anyone. So i dont see how this means im a snitch
>acquired his opinion before responding,
i couldn't give less fucks about his stance on israel, or anyone else at that company for that matter
>diffused the tension of the situation by making a joke and changing the subject
he made the tension, it's not my responsibility to diffuse it like some kind of a bitch boy
> or use this as an opportunity to calibrate on what is and isnt acceptable in context
asking that question at the greeting is what absolutely is never acceptable you absolute fucking idiot
>You sperged about the situation; exactly as bad as going on a rant about the jews or gazans or whatever. Says under pressure you'll crumble.
i did not. I said that im for neither

It is so unfortunate that Chinese sounds as grating as it does to western ears, while Japanese sounds so much more pleasant while simultaneously being practically an offshoot of chinese culture as far as literature goes. I tried, but I just can't get over how Chinese sounds.

I really like disrespect. When people disrespect people. When somebody shows blatant disrespect right to someone’s face … I just have nothing but respect for that. There’s something so fun in it. It’s almost innocent in its audacity. Almost childlike (which is probably the same adjective people who feel the opposite to me would use).

A lot of people are mean (which I’m not generally that into) without having the disrespect. Like they’re mean out of fear. Which maybe makes them much nastier than people who are just confidently disrespectful.

>>24669952
I mean, you proved my exact point with how you replied. What was my objective in telling you? Think about it for a second.

>>24669950
Commercial real estate is a bitch, but these dumb games are very common, even for technical positions. Personally I just go drinking with my coworkers and figure it out when their inhibitions are lowered. That way I dont really have to worry about what I say in the office, and like 3 rounds on me with some fries is more than enough to skip all this crap entirely.

>>24669965
Right? The honesty and the courage is admirable regardless of the message.

One day you are a little fetus and other day you are on your deathbed. C'est la vie

>>24669966
remember the play? iago was a creepy little manipulative villain (very precise, a bit cruel, and always aware of social dynamics).

obviously venting on 4chan is bad for business (and somewhat revealing), but your deep readings make his flaws look so minor. semi-professional language with a subsister, judgemental tone. bit stomach-turning... & since we’re giving social cues: you’re boring, long-winded, and exhausting.

Happy eternal return Nietzsche

>>24669986
And another day you’re eating at Denny’s, and another day wearing a hat

>>24669987
The Iago part was accurate, I dont disagree, and I am absolutely long winded and exhausting, but I'm generally pretty entertaining. It's easy to be manipilative, but radical honesty is rare, and manipulating people is rarely my goal. Telling someone a harsh truth is much more fun; either they internalize it and improve or they have a visceral reation. Either way I'm having fun.

>>24670001
spare me.
and this isn’t written into the play at all, and it wasn’t implied in his film of it, but but in order to get the attitude right, orson welles told the actor playing iago to imagine he was impotent. think about it for a second.

Sticks and stones; I'd prefer "unrealized" or "restrained" to "impotent" because that part absolutely works. Justice isnt nice, but it's always honest, and a just man who revels in cruelty is exactly as just as a just man who doesnt; the difference is only about technique and application.

Some people are fish that dream of god. They climb from the depths to taste the sky. Some are fish who never dream at all and stay where they are, more or less. Others are birds that can touch the sky whenever they want and have never thought twice about it. Some people are fisherman, and a rare few fishermen dream of catching the fish who dreams of god. What does that fish look like, and who can talk to a fish about its dreams? Personally, I used to dream, but now I just watch and push people in the lake, for better or worse.

0/10 what?

I have virtually zero friends who like to read. I do know one guy who used to go to my church's young adults group who is younger than me and who is a big fan of Dune and LOTR and all that stuff along with a lot of theology and apologetics, but he and his wife moved pretty far away a few years ago and he's really only an acquaintance now. Other than that...I have one more friend my age from church who I've known for a long ass time but he's not a good friend, so to speak. Oh, I do have one other friend who somewhat likes to read, like he has a bookcase in his room, but I don't think he's read anything for many years. On top of that I don't even have any family who likes to read, not regularly anyways.

sexually impotent. iago, of course, is incapable of love.
>Justice isnt nice, but it's always honest
something tells me you haven’t read the play, or you’d pick up on the irony of using that word here... the words 'honest iago' are heard often in othello. a little punchline by shakespeare.
emerson says pure intellect is the pure devil. pure and cold. the worst of all hell's, according to dante, is the hell of ice.

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but poop will never hurt me.

The only topic that has consistently fascinated me artistically over the years at a level so deep as to reach the marrow of my bones is that of decay. Personal, societal, moral, artistic, etc.

Its foulness, its beauty, its ephemeral nature...I can't avert my eyes from it for even a single moment.

The world is yours:
I but play the fool
Measured each in each
By one's rule
To your known end;
My lines, like
Well purposed tools,
Tighten calf skin
Drum bleating
To a fall,
So devised
My writ of will
That death greets
In kindly acts
All heavenly law
Recompensed
(And some more!)
The hanging guilt
Which suspends this
Fruit from floor.

>i would double check what kind of an attitude you bring to social occasions.
I could live in a monastery and I would still feel attracted to the one and only non-believer who's only there to escape the law or something, and I'd do this without even knowing about her past. I get along with all kinds of people but there's only one type of woman who I consistently attract. Can't really help it. And while I did click with her, I click with a lot of people I meet, I've also heard the "omg you two are such a great combo" in relation to male friends. With her it was just extra special. And I did actually try it with a Christian girl one time, but she turned out to be autistic and borderline mentally challenged, so I stopped talking to the girl because interacting with her was so exhausting.

>>24670235
Idk sounds like youre beta, even though i dont adhere to alpha beta hierarchical outlook to humans cause i think it doesnt apply to humans, and i think humans arent monkeys
The trope is that sheltered girl falls in love with bad boy, but you falling for bad girl is kinda...inverse. Are you timid, often scared and inexperienced guy? Then it would make sense but still its not good place to be at all
I fell once for a bad girl but the thing is that i thought she was a good girl and she tricked me, as women usually do. Years later when i infact realized shes a bad girl i completely moved on and lost interest

might be the wrong place to air this thought give all the flack gen z gets here but doesn’t it almost seem like immaturity is more of a problem in older people than younger. throwing tantrums. behaving stupidly. nursing these weird little egos.
ringing someone twice your age (in a clerical role or whatever) half the time it feels like they’re mentally still in high school. whenever you see crash out vids online it’s always kids being rational and literal adults losing it. like a role reversal no one talks about.

Central european small towns are so moody at night. The weird eclectic mix between modern buildings and fin de siecle buildings retroactively fitted with modern lighting with cobblestone roads in front of them, that part of the town right over, also with cobblestone, that looks like a village circa 1880 that got annexed, chipped and cracked plaster all over the town, concrete pavements with cracks the size of your leg, far more shops and offices than you can believe this town needs or can provide for, the constant architectural yo-yo motion between the 1910s and the 2010s...

I saw a plant with this DIY paper owl stuck into its soil and it sort of touched me. It looked like the sort of thing you'd make with your mother when you were 8. I guess this thing reminiscent of motherly affection just contrasted pretty starkly with the stasis and decay apparent all around. How can home feel so alien, distant and cold, like a lunar landscape? I hate the motionlessness of time around me, but I know myself well enough to know that I would go crazy from the experience of larger cities as well. Yet there is a certain sense of intimacy to that experience of timelessness, not simply everyday familiarity, but that of a connection to the land and landscape beyond mere words. Wherever the future takes me, I feel like this is that one thing, something seared into my senses and memory over the years, that I could take with myself from here that I could never truly lose.

>>24670448
There's something to the more rural countryside as well. The seemingly infinite plains dotted with bushes and agricultural fields between them, a forest here and there, a nature that seems more alive than the civilization in its midst, all those buildings that seem like they were built only to be neglected, all the one design fits all houses from the 70s...it's impressive that a place can look so dead while still being inhabited.

Would anyone like to read a poem from my book? I can share a part of the tryptic if you'd like. Or the ritual. Whatever you guys want.

>>24670577
if after eight minutes, you still want to press send, it must be something good

Normal people don't have these desires. I don't think they do. When I go out in public the things inside me get to go out too and they love to window shop. They're hungry and can make what they like seem delicious to me too. They're growing and I think I need to give them more space before I run out of room for myself. They are watching and they like what they see.
It feels like a curse. Something a character in a story would be afflicted with so that the hero could cure him of it. One of those heavy crosses a saint in a hagiography would patiently carry despite its unbelievable weight.
It would be really easy to think of it as an outside force, a possessor, something trying to invade me and control me. The truth is that it is as much a part of me as my hand, and that underneath my pretensions to purity or morals, I *like* it. I think that chafes most of all.

Nope. It's an invocation. Little complicated to explain. The book is 3 segments: conception, ritual, and birth. The poem mirrors this structure with each of its parts. Some flippidy floppidy autismal stuff.

Good news, it all does! That's my style. Well I guess you can have the first part then.

Flesh Mall

Marinetti in neon draped across the ceiling,
as the writhing hallways breathe Hieronymus.
My Giger counter erupts in coils of intestine;
sublime epiphany in phallic post-art,
before flopping on the floor and boiling Kandinsky.
The blooming sign both keens and pulses: MEAT.
I follow enraptured down through the small and large
then stand in line with aphorism made manifest
churning and chittering like Burroughs made Blake.
When food arrives, it's less epicurean
and more Hellenistic; stark white and marble.
As I stab with the tines of my fork
I can hear it whisper romance and fealty
of sins yet to be and of suffering unbecoming.

>>24670617

Uhhh, wow. Can you.... post all of it?...

>>24670645
Must be a samefag right?

>>24670645
Nope. Sorry. But the other parts are a techno-occult ritual kind of thing set in a spoopy house called Twice Spliced/Half Price, and a oblique gnostic birthing kind of metaphor thing where you meet the demiurge in the flesh mall called Perpetual Checkout. The ritual and the birth are something completely different. It should be neat, I'm excited.

Nta but I get turned on by other men going into debt or bankruptcy from findom addiction, whether for a camgirl, pro domme, and whatnot. I rarely spend anything myself but it's very much a mental thing, a potent mind like that can ruin large amounts of people is just really really hot. I fantasize to be her special token boy ofc., but I don't care about making it a reality anymore. I think an idle mind's imagination simply spews lies, fetishistic lies, and what I really want will be discovered once I get money and do things irl with people.

>>24670715
If I wanted to samefag, I would be great at it. The /lit/ was is to make your own contest and drop your work in the thread and make elaborate tripfag personas that are the judges that also declare you the winner. Or, alternatively softball yourself some feedback in one of the generals and engage in an elaborate exchange with yourself where you tell everyone what to think of your work in a conversationalist manner. You could even do the classic fire up your computer, put your cell on mobile data and simultaneous post after becoming a tripfag and telling yourself how great you are or post really harsh retarded feedback about yourself to make it seem like someone has an irrational hatred for you, then samefag the replies so that the narrative becomes people who hate you are retards. Then there's always linking your post in the next thread and pretending to be an anon that stumbled across it and write a glowing review that only touches on the themes for a couple threads so that you build mystique.

I just posted a thing I wrote and a single anon paid attention to me, which was kind of a surprise.

I mean, it's nice that you're playing internet detective, but I've been here since before advicedog was a meme, and I saved that image like 4 years ago in a /tg/ filename thread because I thought that style was amusing. I also have a ton of those disturbing jerry seinfeld memes that were funny for like a week, the most offensive comics in the world, and a large variety of /ck/ memes. I dont actually name my files at all, I have a massive folder sorted only by date saved after my meticulous archieve died with my old hard drive, and every single time I want a particular image I rely on my memory to plunge to a certain depth to find it, as god intended. That one was November 23rd 2021, right after the skeleton memes from that year, and before a girl in a caution tape dress as well as an n64 controller filled with beans.

You will never make a good impression on other people until you stop thinking about what sort of impression you are making. Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it. The principle runs through all life from top to bottom, Give up yourself, and you will find your real self. Lose your life and you will save it. Submit to death, death of your ambitions and favourite wishes every day and death of your whole body in the end submit with every fibre of your being, and you will find eternal life.

I've been suicidal for over 10 years. I badly want to end it but I don't want to upset my family. I was coasting by fine until the lockdowns 5 years ago, since then my suicidal thoughts have accelerated.

I guess this is a cry for help, a last ditch attempt to save myself from damnation. Any book recommendations to deal with my malaise? I don't want to become an SSRI zombie.

I will probably get relocated 500km away from everything I know due to work and I'm not telling anyone. I think I should but I rarely speak with anyone IRL and don't see myself going "heyyyy, we haven't talked in a while. moving out to xxxx, cya"

So whatever. Maybe I'll just use that chance to create an entire false persona. Don't know yet.

An English author once wrote something like ‘your friends find nothing easier than advising a course of action which involves ceasing to go to bed with a girl.’

Tried my hand at poetry this month for fun and I was quite surprised at how quickly it became my diary desu but in another form. I expected it to become another way of expressing myself, but in just a couple of weeks I was already writing allegories abiut how shit my was and such. Turns out you have to combat the drive to be inert when writing poetry. Wow... So deep...

>>24671412
Your friend is positioning himself into the role of a "pussy broker". If it goes well, his stain will remain in your combined memory. It will colour the relationship. When other twittering couples ask how you met, you will need to say, "we met through Gregor". It is a mild form of cucking. He will feel powerful.

Poetry is a medium for conflict. Personally I like to talk shit in rhyme.

Not really what I was talking about. I’m just guessing /tg/ has that particular brand of autism (over-index, references, minutiae - rather than the more /lit/-specific gloominess and general neuroticism) and it stands out as awkward and over-engineered when you bring that energy here. Completely tone-deaf (though I guess that goes for other anons too name no names).

it sticks out as awkward, over-engineered, and unintentionally comedic.

Perhaps you should go lurk and find out. It could be your quest: discover the discursive elements of /tg/-posting. My gut says you saw that one anon say /tg/ and are making assumptions, but who knows.

She winked at me.... with her asshole

>>24671611
Of course I’m making assumptions, was I unclear about that?

>>24671453
*about how shit my day was* apologies for the confusion.

>>24671472
That's quite fun but after a while I just began rhyming for the sake of itself without much meaningful content and turning a song into a sequence of assonance and so on.

e.g. "Akin so skinning the nigg within"
I made this up but it's similair in spirit.

>>24671614
Not in the slightest, but you know what they say about assumptions, right? Sometimes you're the ass, and it's usually more autism than insight.

>>24671626
Yup, it's the "flow state". You can do the same thing with meter as well and more complicated rhyme schemes. Few who write poetry do it well AND with intention for all possible design elements.

>>24671636

I was laying in bed when the thought came to me, and my own answer is a resounding yes. So I was asking to see if others agreed, and if not, what am I missing, misattributing, or misunderstanding.

>>24671438
The world would be better if everyone wrote poetry. Not everyone should publish it, but everyone should write their own for their own consumption and self-understanding, maybe for circulation amongst a small cadre of friends and loved ones.

>>24671763
Not everyone is a poet.
Actually, we’d be better off if a decent number of people stopped writing poetry.

>>24671774
That's an issue of too many people thinking their poetry is worth publishing, which is really a problem of the void of proper and comprehensive education and cultivation of taste in poetry.

>>24671782
Or even worth posting in this thread.
But the only good reason to write a poem is that you feel you absolutely have to.

>>24671792
Compared to your "prose"
all verse is inspired;
to look down your nose
means that taste is required
but your palate is weak
like your jaw and your wrist,
so go form your on clique
you wont even be missed.

>>24671802
Poetry is a vocation, not heavy-handed insults in doggerel. Probably a good case for why not everyone should be writing it. Why be a writer (or even much of a reader) if you're insensitive to the emotional quality of words and their associative subtleties, and just use words as weights and counters. You could be an efficient engineer with less trouble and with probably more benefit to the community at large.

>>24671802

Morose and confounded,

To spar with a bard
is to be burried at once
and it's best regarded
as combat, you dunce.
You claim and you croon
with nary a thought
because, you festoon,
you're fraught with mind-rot.
You smell something septic,
like cheese in the sun,
and your apoplectic convulsions
are less-than no fun.

Oh it appears the good sir

Of course not, he's dull,
more milquetoast than mold,
because mold is fruitful,
and you're a moist sight to behold.
I'd rather leap into lava

>>24671857
>and his lexicon diminished (6 stresses)
jars with

>burnt out his passion before it even tool [sic] root
combines combustion imagery with botanical growth, muddying the metaphor a bit

>more milquetoast than mold, because mold is fruitful
reflects a misunderstanding of both terms.

>sir
tipped your hand there. Just kidding.

>>24671870
In the stanza I stashed the 6 by the 4 to add emphasis. The carbs are energy, fruit is a carb, and energy is required for something to take root. Mold has fruiting bodies of spores, and the subject is more milquetoast than mold because it's fruitful, given the dreariness of being moist that also produces mold. But fair enough, I did write it in like 8 minutes.

I've figured out what to get my neighbor for Christmas. A massage wand or massage gun since she's an athlete, and I've seen athletes using it on their thighs all the time so it's a good fit if she doesn't already have one. She's in high school basketball and was or is in soccer, only been to one basketball game when her parents asked me to drive her there.

>>24671828
Beautiful

>>24671882
Mr. Shapiro, if you only knew how ridiculous that statement is you wouldn’t have said it. Actually, the line scans 4 stresses to 3, not 6 to 4. Misreading your own metre undermines any claim to intentionality. This guy is the redgrin grumble of pretending he knows what's going on.

His, Lex, Eh, Dim, Min, and Ished are all stressed? Min is a minor stress, as is eh in Lexicon. Not sure what you're on about, master of the pedantic arts. Plus, of you know enough to care about meter, you know damn well I can say it however I please, and that the word "lexicon" is extremely harsh in that context.

William Blake would disagree.

Even Blake relied on natural stresses.
English metre doesn’t bend to whim unlike (say) Sanskrit.

>>24671953
I only really know english, well as much as I know anything about it, but I honestly thought you could put emphasis wherever you wanted for rhetorical effect, the same as pronunciation. Like "symmetry" in The Tyger. Learn something new every day.

mate ... count the beats when you're writing

>>24672091
It's ABAB across 4 stanzas. The only tricky part was I rhymed indian with simian before the natural end rhyme.

>>24672102
Only if you ignore line-length and limp iambs.
Plus you’re counting polysyllabic words like ‘rigamarole’ and ‘pustules.’ Are those a single foot or multiple?

>>24672110
Wut. "Defile his hole" and rigamarole are structured exactly the same and are discrete end rhymes. The linebreaks show the structure, which is how it goes through the enjabment. But anyways, it appears you are nitpicking and if you are competent enough to critique, you're competent enough to rhyme.

>>24672124
>de-FILE / his HOLE
>RI-ga-MA-ROLE
stress pattern is uneven; naturally pronounced, it’s trisyllabic with stress on first and last, so it does not scan like a simple iambic dimeter. Show me how to scan rigmarole into iambs?

Your 'they rhyme, so it works' approach is basic misunderstanding of prosody.

>>24672124
>you're competent enough to rhyme
I can share something I posted here when I was 17? seems like more even squaring.

>>24672145
I dont write in perfect meter, I write to be read aloud and written quickly. Let's see what you got in real time.

>>24672152
Nope. But you can also write something in real time if you'd like.

>>24672154
Spoken poetry still depends on natural stresses. Forcing polysyllables like ‘rigamarole’ into faux-iambs doesn’t produce rhythm.

>you can also write something
what would be the point? Wasn't my whole argument against writing poems when you're not compelled to? It's not a parlour game.

>>24672165
And my whole argument is that yes, in fact, it is. That was only half your argument, lest we forget your "dalliance". I'm here to entertain and insult people in real time because it's fun. You are not, and therefore your pedantic rebuttle has been noted and discarded. Anything else? Call it "outsider" or postmodern if you must; aint nobody impressed by an overworked omelete that takes two hours to cook.

>>24672175
>"dalliance"
are you quoting someone?
>ain’t nobody impressed by an overworked omelette that takes two hours to cook
Can anyone with real feeling for art talk like that

>waste moar
>time & effort
>on ur peals

>u cant

>of ur mind

>>24672190
Absolutely they can. What do you know about art? Art isnt just for pretentious brooding faggots. Art is firing off a handgun in a lecture hall. Art is grabbing an audience by the scruff of their neck and watching someone commit violence live. Art is punishment. Art is love. Art is praxis, not absentia. Art is gnosis, and transmuting the mundane. Anyone can make art and everyone should to reflect the nature of their squalor in a way only a human can. Mastery is admirable and the height of human ambition, but not unreachable, and certainly not sequestered.

If you think otherwise, you are gravely mistaken and deserve not only ridicule, but obscurity ordained by God. You and your 2 hour omelete, no better than my eggs I slapped in a pan for 2 minutes.

>>24672190
Nta, and I don't do poetry, however creative writing seems to rely on stream of consciousness style inspiration, and any refining seems worthless without it

>>24672409
Like the base Indian, threw a pearl away
Richer than all his tribe

>>24672413
A poet is just someone who thinks a certain way, a poet can make films or paintings or nothing.

>>24672415
don't think we're in disagreement. Unless you think inspiration is something to be forced on the spot?

>>24672425
If you dont make anything you are only what you've made; nothing more.

>>24672434
That's compulsion. Inspiration or compulsion are the only ways anyone accomplishes anything, and if you arent inspired, all you can be is compelled.

>>24672435
>>24672435
Samuel Butler said something like 'it is not what a man has actually put on canvas that I will judge him, but by what he makes me feel that he felt and aimed at. If he mas made me feel that he felt those things to be loveable which I hold loveable myself I ask no more; I have understood him.'

>>24672448
As far as real poetry goes you can only be inspired (and thus then compelled). Hence the invocation of the muse etc

we're half awake
in a fake empire

>>24672455
We're of opposite sides of the spectrum. Marinetti said: "There is no longer beauty except in the struggle. No more masterpieces without an aggressive character. Poetry must be a violent assault against the unknown forces in order to overcome them and prostrate them before men." And I firmly believe that.

He also said: "When will you disembarrass yourselves of the lymphatic ideology of that deplorable Ruskin, which I would like to cover with so much ridicule that you would never forget it? With his morbid dream of primitive and rustic life, with his nostalgia for Homeric cheeses and legendary wool-spinners, with his hatred for the machine, steam power, and electricity, that maniac of antique simplicity is like a man who, after having reached full physical maturity, still wants to sleep in his cradle and feed himself at the breast of his decrepit old nurse in order to recover his thoughtless infancy."

Picasso said every artist is a woman and should have a taste for other women. Artists who are homosexual cannot be true artists because they like men, and since they themselves are women they are reverting to normality.

>>24672458
Wrong and gay. And so wrong and so gay you cant even stomach my argument about the nature of art. Do you not feel? I am never inspired to feel because it is my perpetual reality and I feel it all at once. All poetry is real, and it appears only you are fake.

>>24672463
>Marinetti
you're joking. I think I was impressed by the futurists for a two-week period in my first year of sixth form.
Poetry as the Greeks knew it when they adopted the drama as a cleansing rite of religion, is a form of psycho-therapy. Primitive man was much troubled by the phenomenon of dreams. The ancestors of poets were the peculiarly gifted witch doctors or priestesses who would induce a sort of self-hypnotism, and in the light of the dream, utter an oracle which contained an answer to the problem proposed, with the use of rhythm to hold people’s attention.

>>24672486
Overpowering. But is the function of poetry to overpower? To be over-powered is to accept spiritual defeat. Shakespeare never overpowers: he raises up.

I dont care what impresses you because you have no character worth impressing. Ancient man is dead and instead of rending you myself I am civilized enough to assault you with words. That romantic pastoral poetry is empty, because that is not the world we live in. The industrial revolution killed it. I live in an indecipherable arbitrary hellscape and the only way I can retain some semblance of sanity is to strive at every possible opportunity. I fight for everything I have and I dont have the luxury to dream.

>>24672491
Yes. It is not only to overpower but to eviscerate; to spread your message like a burden against those who take arms against you. It is the void, the most terrible weapon imaginable, because it doesnt maim, it saps your will to fight back. It leaves you empty and changes you forever. I could give a fuck about shakespeare beyond enjoying some of his work, he lived in a world where existence was sufficient, and anything else was extraordinary.

>>24672498
Orson Welles, too, said
>Shakespeare was clearly tremendously feminine. Every man who is any kind of artist has a great deal of female in him. I act and give of myself as a man, but I register and receive with the soul of a woman. The only really good artists are feminine. I can’t admit the existence of an artist whose dominant personality is masculine.

Yes, thank you, we live in an unpoetic age. But as one English poet said: every true poet has a source in the primitive.

>spread your wings
bold of you to think you could get away with this plagiarism when I just told you I've read futurist poetry.

Anyway your slant is still a bit wrong. Shelley said poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world.

>>24672523
the muse.

>>24672515
Fair, I got a little wrapped up in the vision, I dont really know which part was plagerized, but I'll just say it was pastiche and probably cringe in the shower when it comes to me. I can buy the quote from Shelley, seems right, and on reflection they litigate through the eyes of the future. I think I read that somewhere.

To humanize myself a bit, I was always told no, even when the answer should have been yes. Even when others recieved yes with half the effort or substance. I had to become undeniable, which made me monsterous. Yes had to be taken, and if I didnt take it, I'd never have it. Now I have all the yes I can grasp. All the remaining yes is beyond my reach, and my goal is build a path for others. Not just anyone, but the righteous, on the backs of everyone I've given no. Why? So others who only recieved no can grasp it too.

>>24672539
No.

>>24672563
In England that's considered a starting point for poetry.
I know it's shouting into the void a bit, but it's still a bit of a shame the real lack of formal education here, even if it's just a jumping-off point to disagree with, it's better than only approaching poetry in your mid-twenties and starting with American poets or Eastern religion or Dadaism et al.

I started young, whipped beef tallow and olive oil creams. I used to use that fancy stuff but I dont really believe in it because it's designed to make you dependant on it and your skin gets used to it. Tea tree oil for blemishes, infrequent shaving. Know your skin type and treat it accordingly.

That's not me, you may need to reevaluate who you're thinking of. I last posted a long thing about 2 years ago about my now-wife having an abortion because we couldnt afford the kid and how it destoryed me. Fun stuff.

Earliest? Going on /b/ and seeing a polish flag the first time. Earliest relevant memory? Gorespammer on /mu/ posting thousands of mutilated dicks for witchfinder general. Also, sharing the dolphin porn .exe in mediafire links of albums.

eh?

Also I actually talk to some ancient /b/posters on zoom from time to time. Not from here, I met them through my internship at a .edu job.
