I avoided life by playing video games for 15 years and now I am pushing 30 and I only know how to bag groceries and wash dishes and I don't know how to drive a car and I'm starting to bald and develop myopia and tinnitus and I don't know how to carry a basic conversation and I want to die and start over

I am a 28 year old autistic thats been trying to claw his way back from the abyss and just reading a few books on the subject made me realize how fucking terrible normal people are at conversing. Just ask people questions about themselves and make it obvious you are listening, its that easy. For some reason normalfags cant stop droning on about themselves and making half the people they talk to hate them

Lmao hopefully you are drafted into WW3 faggot

>>717372575
I've also suddenly started getting subjected to crowds of people after a very solitary life and I can't help but smile.

how the hell do people make friends? should I just move to a big city?

I got sent to the depressive ward of a mental hospital cuz I said I was gonna blow my brains out, then when I left there I had to attend daily IOP group therapy sessions for about two months. I ended up falling in love with the group therapist and while there’s a term for that in therapy called transference, I felt a legit soulmate level connection with this person because I was cyberstalking her and making connections between her life and mine, plus she was only three years older than me (both in our 20s). Anyways even though I lovebombed her ridiculously hard and proved I’m not a complete NEET shitter with nothing to offer as a man, ethically she’s not allowed to be with me AND she already has a boyfriend, so I got a restraining order and lost $20k when I violated it three times by saying “I love you” all those times. :skull emoji:

>I don't know how to carry a basic conversation
This isn't a thing, it mystifies some people, but it's not that complicated. You're a talker or a non-talker, people don't "know how to carry a conversation" because of adulting or some stupid shit like that, they just happen to be comfortable and enjoy talking to other people.
There's nothing to know, some people just go up and talk to random strangers they have nothing in common with about the color of the floor tiles and other stupid shit.

>>717374316
An alphabet agency clearly placed that person there to fuck up your life. Don’t believe anything else.

>>717374358
For people like me its not a choice to be a "non-talker" because then nobody talks to you and then everyone starts hating your guts because you're the weird pariah that nobody knows despite always being around.

>>717374636
For me it's not a choice to be a talker because I really just cannot be bothered. If they say something interesting and it's not 20 people all talking at the same time I'll respond.

>>717372575
Sounds fun tbqh

ive been playing games my whole life and ive never been better.

>>717370816 (OP)
It's so weird that people are obsessed with bringing the carts back themselves, when it was the best part of the job. I was a cartpusher and it was far superior to any other task at the job. The choice is stay inside the store and deal with customers or going out to the parking lot and getting carts all by yourself was an easy one for me.

I suppose I am aberrant though. Even the other workers avoided it. I never had to fight for the job because no one wanted to go get carts? Cart retrieval was the best. It would have disappointed me greatly if there were no carts to get because all the customers brought them back. I don't do that job anymore, I went and became a paramedic for some stupid reason and it's quite stressful.

Oh well. If you have no skills I reccomend cart chasing. that's where i was going with this. Maybe I always did things that others people would refuse to do. No one wants to get carts, or clean up messes, or deal with medical emergencies.

>>717370816 (OP)

Should I order 0.5" diameter jute hemp rope from amazon or should I try to buy a handgun by signing ATF 4473? I'm in this situation but I don't wanna live life. I don't wanna do anything, I can only think about avoiding life or ending it. I don't want to live and I don't believe in antidepressants or therapy anymore and I don't want to keep going to doctors about my major depression because eventually I'll get involuntarily committed and lose the ability to buy a gun. I do not care about the impact on my family either, I don't care about them

>>717378025

The only structure I have access to right now that's high enough to be lethal is the Aurora Bridge and it has anti-suicide fence all across it and I would surely be spotted and then involuntarily committed to a mental hospital and I would be thenceforth adjudicated as mentally defective and I would have to deal with police visiting me

I was a NEET but I'm in my late 30s and my parents died. First my dad, then my mom a few years later. I didn't get any inheritance either so I'm forced to work.

I'm jealous of people that get carried through their life by their parents. I work with a bunch of people whose parents bought their houses for them. It would be nice if I didn't have to pay rent.

Did you work in the winter anon? Try subzero January temps with freezing wind and being a cart pusher fucking sucks. In the summer it was good though.

I agree with that reddit post though but I'd go a step farther, the people that would not return the carts to the corrals should be euthanized or shot by firing squad. Literally takes 30 seconds and it's always fat brown people that would do it too

Pretty much every single person that works at a shartmart hates it, and that probably extends to all of retail

If you're a man living alone you don't need to work full time. Just work half a year and slack off half a year, it's easy. Only family men have to wage properly

>>717379180
Then get secured credit. That's where you give a lender money to hold onto as you borrow.

but since they're dying now you might not have much time to build up credit. You need about 2 years of credit building to get any substantial credit

27 here. I've been a NEET for the last 3 years, actually taught myself moonrunes during the NEETdom.
Money's starting to run out, I did night shift stocking shelves before, but quit because getting home at 7AM and waking up at 2PM felt like complete shit and the managers would often make fun of me because I'm a sperg.
Tomorrow I have an interview with a pretty shit-pay JP to EN localization gig, I kinda realize now my moonrunes are my only real asset. (Also I live with my dad, who wants me to stay around because he has a permanently damaged shoulder and had to retire early because of it. I just need money to buy games and figs).
I already did pretty well on their TL test, it might be more of an introductory bullshit thing than an actual interview, still scared as fucking shit.
That's my NEETblog rant. Have a sexy imouto.

If you say this you must concede that it is no different from littering (expectation to return something to the proper location that you are not doing), and must therefore also be ok.

No I absolutely hate walmart, I'm basically forced to go there or starve and I dread every second i'm there, especially in the overcrowded parking lots of my culturally enriched community.
Once I'm done being thoroughly humiliated and paying for the bottom of the barrel garbage slop they sell me i'm jumping in my car and fucking off ASAP, staying an extra 30 seconds lingering around is begging to get mugged by lunchtime rowdies and employees are just going to stand around watching when that happens.
Do your job or have them get robots to do it, or get rid of carts all together, don't care not my problem welcome to America.

Same but I got kind of lazy with it, my moon is merely just "good enough" to play whatever vidya or untranslated VN I want from time to time, and I never bothered to improve it beyond that level, so I don't think I could even leverage it to get a shitty loc job.

It's time to apply yourself, get a shitty job just to drop out of the normie world soon after by crackshackmaxxing. My house is sorta falling apart but it cost less than $20k.
I work maybe a few months per year and the rest of my life is vidya, gooning, eating microwave meals and doing a bit of repair sometimes.
You don't need to participate in the society, but I recommend you get something pleasant to do while signing out of the pointless hubbub.

I feel that way about myself. This might be the push I need to get past feeling like I'm only "good enough."
I did do some TLs on DLsite before this (not as a hire, just for their TL Unite thing, this is where you translate doujins you just bought yourself btw), my first TLs there would get 30+ errors from their reviewers but eventually I got to a point where I'd have no errors at all (and it was a nice feeling when the artists would send you a thank you email). My TL test for this company only had 4 errors and the test was a bit more complicated than the x999 "ikuuu kimochiii" stuff I did on DLsite.
I do think I already got the position but I have like 10 sticky notes with bullet points written up. It's an online interview, never did one of these before. I just have to not projectile vomit spaghetti.

my literal only hope right now is that an old second aunt decides to pass her property in the woods on to family instead of selling it to some chink gigacorp. tl;dr: most likely case if she passes it on is that my mom gets it, but its a tiny house thats not fit for a whole family so it'd probably further go to me

I think step 1 is to not talk about yourself so much. In fact, in your position, forget you even exist. Don't fucking worry about you.
Step 2 might be finding a physical hobby. Gym maybe, but I always found that boring. Bike riding or something. Archery is fun and easily gamified.
Step 3 could be something like vocational school. Machining, plumbing, welding. Some shit. Do something.

Yeah. They even ask when you start it up "Hey, do you even like the browser?"
I tried leaving a message in their discord but they ignore everything.

I got my A+ cert last year but its been pretty useless for getting jobs. Took me 6 months just to get a scam call center position that was 1099 and they didn't even mention my A+ cert in the interviews, just the lies I put in my resume to cover my 10 year employment gap from being a neet super failure. Maybe its different for you as someone with actual CS schooling but the A+ doesn't seem to be worth what it was during Covid

Could a dude living alone in an inherited house hack it with part-time jobs only?? I hope that doesn't mean retiring at 80

We'll all be NEETs soon (on the street, no bux for us lmao)

I bring home about 1700-3000usd a month from my part time wagie job and its enough to cover fees by the fascist government, not starve and have enough on hand to fix shit when it breaks. I don't have vices or anything like that so 70% of that goes into savings and that stockpile is just enough to cover when the air conditioner dies or similar expense that happen to home owners.

>>717381383
then you sell. collect the equity and purchase something humble to live in as well as a cheap car. make sure you understand taxes. if you're completely alone call a church and tell the pastor you're going through a rough patch and need help learning to drive with the end goal of getting a job. you can turn this around. not easily but you can. you're very lucky to have some assets to stand on.

I’m hoping that since I managed to land an IT interview once off the CS degree (this time last year lol last one I had) that I’ll have better luck now with both.

Hopefully also helps I have 4 years of part time retail work from 2016- closing during covid on my resume too, but I figure that’s why I didn’t get anything for CS but might work better for help desk shit since I have that much experience with customers.

>>717390597
Its nominally part time with usually 18-24 hours a week but they like to give us 50 hour work weeks sometimes out of nowhere. I also like to pick up extra shifts lately because I have literally nothing else in my life

About a month to go from total n00b to decent enough that I could drive a car without crashing into everything.

Is it just me or did a lot of boomers not want to teach their kids anything? My parents were generally nice but if I ever wanted to learn to cook or join a sport or ask them questions they'd always shoot me down and say they were busy (they weren't)

I'm 27, and a NEET for 5 years, now. I did NOTHING but eating, sleeping and maybe 2 suicide attempts. I live with my dad and my 3 other siblings. I'm the elder.
I don't know what to do, I threw out 5 years of my life.

My brother turned 21 a month, quit his job, and and just is drinking all the time now. Hoping he doesn't do the same, I'm the older brother but I don't know what to tell him because I don't drink, that shit is fucking evil

What could be done is, design a modular media player application with a classic Winamp-style interface (specifically the Bento skin layout). The app should feature tabbed navigation, allowing the user to switch between modules such as a music player, video player, and web browser. Instead of hardcoding playback or browser engines, the app should allow users to attach their preferred tools. for example, selecting VLC as the video player and Brave as the web browser. Each module should either embed or externally control the chosen application, maintaining a cohesive user interface within the Winamp-style shell.

>>I don't know how to carry a basic conversation and I want to die and start over
>Damn that's how I feel too
>We're cooked
It's easier to talk to like minded people. As we do here. too bad we never leave our holes. But, just start talking to randoms, just one sentence with no expectations. "nice weather today", "sure is busy here today" yes is boring irrelevant conversation. but that's how it works. everything takes time. i had a solid year of my life on WoW (over a year /played) and i was able "to turn it around" to a point. you guys can too. now its at a point where, when i talk to a normy i have to carry the conversation because all they know is their work or one singular show or one singular game. if you put EFFORT into developing conversation skills, light knowledge on many topics, you find most people are very narrow minded and not worth talking to.

I'm 30, diagnosed autism a year ago because my parents had no idea and I had to see a head doctor with my own money
I make $87k a year (in a non-3rd world state like CA) occasionally filing part orders and power cycling computers, I spend money without ever checking my bank account
I browse 4chan all day then play video games when I get home and through most of my weekends

It's the fucking trope of "once you try, you will fail" in life. Once you fail, and truly break and cry and fight and give up, only then does life give you what you want.

>>717391496
This would be the better path.
Wacup can't even update their video player.
Just make it modular. That way you avoid hard coding it and licensing issues.

>>717370816 (OP)
what's wrong with that?

>>717374286
what interests you? if its video games, think, how often do video games put me in the presence of others? it doesn't. that's our biggest problem.

Handgun and make sure it is at least a .45 or larger. .357 if you want to get the job done and don't care about the mess.

You are not my friend, don't pretend you are or ever could be.

One day you will be dead and it won't matter in the slightest what sort of life you lived. Alexander the Great is currently experiencing the same non-existence as the last mosquito you killed.

Just sign up for a boxing class and go like 3x a week. I got tired of not doing jack shit when I was younger and got jealous of people who stuck with something since they were kids. Now it's been 3 years and I enjoy being active

>>717391152
>Is it just me or did a lot of boomers not want to teach their kids anything?
It's not just you. Every boomer I run into or work with brags about investing, or technical / mechanical skills, then refuses to elaborate.
I don't know about you, but my cousin got really good at cooking during covid. His boomer ass parents actually got mad as fuck because he can cook better than them, and he tells me how they started being petty as fuck about all sorts of things in response to him "cooking better than the family" for thanksgiving or christmas or whatever.
It's the same thing with a lot of skills, or even extremely basic stuff like job awareness, and basic repair stuff. They just expect you to know everything because it's on the internet, but they don't understand how it takes time and effort to learn something new.

>>717391496
Idk how easy that would be to implement but sounds like the better option. Though I still won't use winamp until I can make it look and work like clementine

>>717388429
Sucks you have no choice or freewill.
On the bright side it's nice you ultimately have no responsibility because of your "nature" I guess.

>30yo
>been unemployed for 8 months with 5 jobs that sucked
>2 of which were sales jobs so might as well be 3 jobs

I have 3 options:
1. Keep applying and accept it is like winning the lottery if someone hires me and I can't nepo my way in
2. Go back to working the trades as an electrician. I've made a deal with myself that if this is my future I will become an alcoholic. At least 1 or 2 beers a night followed by liquor on the weekends.
3. I am playing with the idea of going back into the military nearly a decade later for something like IT or code monkey. IDC about dying for Israel or my country. I want to learn the skills these professions offer and worse case scenario I do it until I'm 30 and then enjoy retirement.

>>717392727
Do it until I'm 50*

>>717370816 (OP)
Just keep playing games.
I have a job but I hate women and am not a faggot so there's really nothing else.

>>717390187
worse than that, anon. AI can only replace low physical labor jobs and fields of passion.
we'll all be forced to do hard labor for nickels and dimes.
the AI crap ends with us (lowly peasantry) being enslaved to the elites (high nobility).
dont you know that the modern world was too good for us? only the select few born into it should be able to enjoy luxuries like this!
this is also why they are trying to replace the white man with third world hordes, they wont complain about slave-like living conditions since its still miles better than africa and india. only problem with their plan is that the third world is the third world for a reason.

Learn a trade. It won't take literal years to land a job with one and you'll be paid exponentially more. Start hitting up Ziprecruiter and Indeed until you find a higher paying job. It fucking sucks but you have to go through the hiring process if you want to financially succeed.
If you want purpose, work out, find a small hobby other than video games, can literally be anything, this doesn't mean you have to quit video games permanently, just reduce them.
As for driving it kinda sucks but I'd definitely encourage the pursuit of a license, the freedom a vehicle provides is huge.

c'mon damnit, where's the brainwashing that fools absolutely fucking everyone? im sick of being aware.
>>717393463
its worse than just wasting your time, the listings are so that the companies can get GOVERNMENT BENEFITS.
THEY ARE GETTING MONEY FROM THE GOVERNMENT FOR PRETENDING TO HAVE JOB OPENINGS.

>>717393463
White collar jobs yes because kike companies can spam listings, not hire anyone, and then legally hire H-1B Indian workers to "fill in employment gaps" of the unfilled spots in the company

Blue collar jobs will hire anyone with a heartbeat because no one else is desperate enough to work construction aside from felons and drop outs.

literally me; kissless dateless virgin at 34, didn't get my driver's permit until my 32nd birthday and didn't get my license until a week before my 33rd, also balding, have had tinnitus for 25 years and am myopic; the nice part is that even in your 30s the trades will still want you and you can get a half-decent job at one of those places if all you care about is getting decent pay and continuing to live your life, though if you're jealous of the life you missed I've nothing I can help you with

>>717374286
Idk, but I'm spending a good chunk of my NEET change so I can go to two conversions near me in costume with the goal of making friends. I'm scared of encountering posers and trannies, but it still seems like the best option to alleviate my loneliness
