I wonder how many people on this site would have ended up a completely different political ideology if they had just been aware of a handful of unspoken rules about english grammar

Like, it's a known thing that people who get called racist, sexist or homophobic over innocent misunderstandings often shift further right as a result because they grow to view the left as hostile and the right as welcoming.

How many times has someone started down the path towards antisemitism just because nobody told them that that calling someone "jewish" is neutral, but "a jew" is hostile

Eh. Even if we all loved all Jewish people, they're raised to think everyone else is their enemy. They've got classes, museums and everything else to constantly rub it in their faces growing up and their in group preference is kinda obvious.
In the end I think it's not salvageable, but that's okay. All of us will die eventually and return to the chaos and remade in some form or another. Even their god will die. Under those circumstances all we can do is pity them. They can't take that money, power or prestige with them after all.

I'm simultaneously overworking and underperforming in most aspects of my life. My father has been telling me he's proud of me, but I can't help but feel not only is it not true, if it were, I honestly wouldn't deserve it. I don't have the resources to do the things I want, or flesh out any meaningful relationships, and when I have the time to work on personal projects, I squander it pursuing meaningless things instead. I halfass at all instances of communication regarding the things technically most important to my life, yet I try vehemently to communicate internal feelings that once out will mean nothing to anyone else. After finally being able to go and meet some friends after lockdown, while I enjoy and relate to them, and highly value their friendship, the energy required for maintenance is unsustainable if I am to continue attempting to build my career, so I think I'll have to drift from them as my time dwindles. My only solace is that of my own making, but I don't know if it's enough. I'm tempted to stop doing anything sometimes, like stay in my room for a month or two and focus on only myself, but I don't have the balls to cut off everything I've worked to build up, even though it really all could come crashing down in a moment anyway. I both desparately want time alone, then once I get it, I never genuinely enjoy it. Only three of my friends are truly trustworthy, and of those three, no one can share time with me, outside of outings that felt more like an attempt at returning to a facsimile of a social life than one of genuine intention.
Enough pity party. I hope to find someone who can share time with me in a meaningful way and communicate well, and I need to find free time to do so. Then I can start building towards more long term goals. At least I don't have to worry about food and shelter for a couple of years.

Like in person as long as I can do my death research I really don't care about your background, we'd probably get along fine, but I also celebrate European culture and love European festivals, music and so on and so forth. That...isn't really appreciated in society right now.
It's kinda painful that I'm doing all this work and research and if I hold up a banner for Evropa then a lot of people will screech at me.

Do you have enough time to go hiking, maybe pick up a hobby or hell even just take a 15 minute daily walk (or stop at a park bench)? I've found if I am apathetic or getting melancholic, a change in environment or an added attitude towards something removes it, though admittedly sometimes it is replaced by frustration, or other negatives, but those things are also conducive to writing, so it's a bit of a trade-off I guess.

Sometimes I think of the degenerate fetishes I have, and I wonder: how much of this is me simply acquiring new fetishes from 4chan, and how much of this is something that was always there, in the back of my mind, that would have lurked subconsciously in my erotic impulses if I were not made consciously aware of it?

In other words: was I truly "given" these fetishes by my consumption of the internet, and of media? Or did I just always have them, and if I had not been made directly aware of them, would they have lurked in my subconscious, and caused me to act without conscious knowledge when I engage in relationships with women?

And if the latter is true, am I not better off having these fetishes consciously, rather than subconsciously? If I actively know about them I can come to terms with them in a healthy manner.

The weight of me being an utter fuckup socially, in action and design, weighs heavy on my shoulders as of late.
Are people this complex, to be an ever spinning machine of variables numbering so high that the only way is to act without thinking?
Is this what being human is, to feel more than you think, and if you think but can't feel right it's just all fucked?
I feel like my best response besides going mad is curling up in a dark room until the horror goes. Every nerve whipped raw lies in a pile of agony, and I feel like the hope of things potentially stabilizing was a thin delusion conjured up by my mind just to get a week's reprieve from the sensation of every step being on broken glass
This feels awful, absolutely terrible. Since I set foot off the airport and back onto my home state on 01/01/2020 it feels like things have just been a grim, decaying clone of themselves
Don't mind me I just need to either eat all of this and let it wrap it's way around my heart and brain or spit it out on this board.

IMO Trump is either America's Tiberius Gracchus or its Marius. Biden, the intelligence community, the established military brass, and the media are, therefore, equivalent to Sulla an the Senate, when they ruthlessly put down the populist revolt by the plebian classes that the Gracchi brothers had set off and that Marius had to a large extent taken advantage of.

But Sulla merely sowed the seeds of the Republic's eventual demise. In "saving" the Republic, he broke it beyond repair because of the extreme measures he took. So it was a simple matter for Pompey to come along, take control along the lines and measures established by Sulla, and put Rome right back where it never wanted to be: with a single man dictating the whims of the entire empire. And, of course, after Pompey came Caesar, and after Caesar came Augustus, and then the Roman Republic was gone for good.

America doesn't look exactly like Rome, but the parallels have become too strong for me to ignore. I believe the end of the American Republic is less than a century away. I believe America will be a true empire after that, ruled by an emperor who wields supreme authority.

It's partly hereditary, Jews bred with the intention to hone their already-existent in-group preference until it became so painfully obvious that hundreds of countries have kicked them out and the narrative by those countries (right or wrong) is the exact same every single time.

I feel like a have, in a past life, wandered through the cosmos unrestrained by space or time. I have seen everything.

I recognize all this beauty when I see steam rising from a kettle or when during a lonely walk in the autumn, wind sweeps the foliage on the sidewalks. I want to slow down my daily life to contemplate this divine unity as much as I can, but having to work in a meaningless job won't let me.

I posted in the thread yesterday that I was panicking about my gf not responding to my messages and playing with a guy I don't know on steam. We ended up arguing again and she admitted she can't shake the thought I'm cheating on her. I asked why and she said it's because I wanted to make new friends, and she thought I'd meed some new girl and cheat on her in a spur of the moment thing. No evidence or proof - she just can't trust me. Maybe it wouldn't even have to end there. But she admitted she feels extreme jealousy over this, and that in the past after an argument she would purposely look for new guys to talk to. Just by this, I think it became impossible to continue. I see how this leads to her doing something stupid and using another guy to make me jealous, and that would be unbearable. But if she just can't trust me, it's only going to get worse.

I feel like shit but I don't see a better choice. If you don't trust each other, it's just not possible, you know. Also feel shitty for having to write this here since I have no close friends anymore, but hey, that's just how life is.

I know that sort of theory exists, but honestly if she could just trust that I wouldn't cheat on her then there would be no problem. She confessed to me she talked to other guys out of jealousy, so why wouldn't I be worried? If she really deeply feels I may be cheating, then there's a chance she'll actually cheat and hit up some guy out of jealousy. I really trusted her 100% until she admitted she gets with other guys after out arguments out of jealousy. From there, it can only get worse, right?

I see what you're saying. In a major sense, it's a self-perpetuating problem where neither side can believe the other. But I only lost faith when she admitted there's no way she can fully trust me. How can you get anywhere when your partner doesn't trust you? That's why.

I just found out my ex is sleeping with someone knew less than 3 weeks after we broke up. She called me to tell me about it because she doesn't have anyone else to talk to about her feelings. I keep alternating between rage and despair. Since we broke up my whole life has started to crumble around me and I have no desire to anything. I haven't read a book, written a word on my stories, enjoyed a single one of my dumb little hobbies. All I've done is drink until I pass out, eat whatever is the easiest thing to find, sleep for 12 hours, and push myself through work. I've had two people offer to set me up with someone, but I don't want to inflict myself on anyone. I'm not going to kill myself, but I can't get the image of a noose out of my mind.

Luckily, my work offers a free, no-questions-asked mental health service that I'm going to utilize but at the moment I feel like I'm completely alone and meaningless. I feel like a starving man staring at pictures of food.

After 7 years together we both knew it wasn't going to work. We liked each other to stay together but didn't have enough in common to make a marriage work. She accepted a job in another city and we split up, then got back together whenever she came back here. During that time I started a online relationship with another girl. Just talking online, but my ex found out about it and didn't take it well. That was the last time I saw her before she went back to her city. We've spoken a few times since then and she mentioned meeting some guy where she's staying. She knows he's just after sex, which she isn't looking for, but is still getting intimate with him. I have no idea how I'm supposed to feel or react to this. I want to kill him, but I don't want to be involved in her life anymore. I want her to be happy, even if that kills me.

You're in this relationship because you chose this. It's a partnership. You don't trust your partner either. That's the point of the video game story you keep telling us like that is supposed to be a major crisis in a relationship for normal relationships. It is not just her in this relationship.

Nah, groups exist with general characteristics. Of course subgroups can differ, but trying to remove groups altogether doesn't make any sense when data supports defining characteristics.

i am in love with a woman who has told me no. there are good reasons it could never work. this doesn't stop my heart from hurting for her. the feelings she had for me make it worse, that we shared some tender moments together. i can only dwell now on what little we had, what could have been had things been different, and what, were i to make the right one in a million move, still could be, also knowing i will never try again, never risk the fouling of that little love of hers i've got.

sometimes you meet a person you know you could give your whole life to, someone you know could always represent what's good and what's worth fighting for. it's going to be hard to forget her. but i know in time i will.

Well, for one I'm not diagnosing her with BPD. But also, try to imagine it from your end. You're with someone, and it's going well for a while, like 3+ months. But she casually drops hints that she thinks you're cheating on her a lot. You ask if she has any evidence or proof. She says no, she just feels that way. What's more, nothing you do really solves the problem. So whether you choose to trust her or not, she's not going to trust you. Would you have a relationship with someone who could place no faith in you, even if you wanted to?

That's the problem. I'll admit I know little about relationships, but I at least believe partners are supposed to afford a basic level of trust to one another, and this is what holds them together. If that safety net isn't there, what's to stop things from falling apart at the first problem? That's what this comes down to I think. Maybe you think a trustless relationship can still work. To me it sounds impossible. That's the issue here.

I can't tell what the fuck bit me all down my legs. I scratched the bites a bit but not too much; nevertheless they're all big swollen itchy and painful and a few have developed a sizable blister or scab in the middle. I think I've ruled out everything except mosquitoes and spiders. I sure the fuck hope it's not the latter because I'm scared of spiders and it would have had to be in my room to have bit me. I can't figure out which it would have been and some of the bites don't fit the bill. Mosquitoes and a bad allergic reaction to the bites makes the most sense but I've never had a mosquito bite this bad or one that blisters as far as I can remember. I guess it doesn't matter what it was if it wasn't bed bugs or fleas or something like that; I'll just keep rubbing neosporin and after-bite and wait for them to heal.

When going on walks with the parents, I wouldn't even be aware of my surroundings, even if I were a 20 minute walk from home, I wouldn't be able to find it, that's how much I went with it.
At school, I would just do what I was told and in the cinema/theatre, I wouldn't even be aware of what film/play I was on, I just watched it and let it pass.

i don't know. maybe it's a self-defeating mechanism in my head. as far as my conscious mind can tell it's because she was the one who was perfect, flaws and all. made just for me. her personality aligned with mine. we were comfortable with one another, and yet i was also driven to be my best self in her presence. she was serious in a way i understood but she could laugh. she was beautiful. and as the obsession set in i found beauty in her every last tic and mannerism. who can say why these things happen? i just want to hold her again. she was at the centre of my life for some time. moving on will require learning to live for someone else, even myself again. the problem is i will have to forget her, quit returning to pleasent memories as i am now. and that's scary. because even her absence is a kind of presence, and it feels less alone to dwell on someone gone. if i let her go completely, i am left truly alone, without even someone to feel sad over, and bare naked life is hard to take coming down from the highs of love.

>> No.18561648

>>18561614
Yes unless it's absolutely necessary to protect someone else.

Lying is like eating processed food. Everyone justifies doing it by saying "just this once" or "just as an exception." But you will gradually notice in life that there are two types of people, those who eat almost no processed food and those who eat almost exclusively processed food. All lying draws you into being a liar. It weakens your soul against "small" immoralities and "petty" sins when those are actually the most dangerous.

The reverse works out too. If you resist being a dishonest self-serving person, even in a situation where it will slightly hurt you or deprive you of some small pleasure or convenience, it may feel like you've done nothing except take a little hit for no reason. But in ten years when every moral act you make flows from the last and into the next and you feel like your life is actually part of a moral continuum, where you take yourself as seriously internally as you take others and hope they take you, you will be glad you built that inner life up brick by brick, just like the people who eat mostly natural foods just seem holistically healthier and happier even if conventional science can't put a finger on it.

Hey, I'm just a brainlet, but studying algorithmics made me feel like getting interesting insight into certain things. I mean, it's the study of effectively solving problems, which is what evolution did in many cases. Branch-like structures are very practical in many different ways.
But known algorithmic tricks pop up in very unexpected places in nature quite often. Like this thing if you are interested https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/115/51/13093.full.pdf, which compares a mechanism in flies to a famous probabilistic data structure.

I miss the army something fierce lately. It makes sense since the novel I'm writing is like an excision of my entire experience in Afghanistan packed into one day, so if course it's going to bring up some feels. I remembered offhand just now one one of the amazing experiences I had over there. We were short timers and less than a month out of rotating back home after 10 hard months of grueling patrols, firefights, and bombs. There was no fear anymore at that point, just acceptance and even peace.

We were on the return leg of a 25 mile movement out to a village to do something or another. Whatever it was, it doesn't matter. By that point in deployment we were a finely oiled machine and tough as fucking nails. Our savvy fucking platoon sergeant had a hit on his sixth sense and decided to take us as the crow flies back to the COP. This meant going up and down mountains rather than following the natural flow of their valleys, the point being that the Taliban had 100% seen us go in, so if they were gonna hit us it'd be on the way back while we're tired. So here we are walking up mountains when there's a perfectly good valley we could be walking in and for some reason I'm fucking loving it. I'm having the absolute time of my life. My body is nearly spent from humping a hundred pounds of gear, but as the sun is setting over those barren, craggy mountains there's some little kernel of myself held in reserve in the back of my mind, and this kernel is doing nothing but observing and enjoying the observation. I identified "myself" as this kernel. I felt like I was riding on the edifice of an autonomous machine. My body hurt and it wanted to stop but I found I could just keep going effortlessly. I try to shy away from this kind of language, but just being there with my brothers, these guys with whom I'd been through the realest shit I'll ever experience in my life, as the sun sets over a country full of people who want to kill me, it was almost transcendental.

I miss that, and I'm sure I'll never experience it again. As I write this I am filled up to the brim with gratitude for having touched on that kind of peace, if only for a moment.

Every time we argue its always about how he had to struggle to get to where he was etc etc and how I'm being an ungrateful child and how I've not worked a day in my life.

Well nips use onomatopeia all the time, those so called to adverbs, don't they? jirojiro, kirakira, nyanya, dokidoki, etc. They must be good. English speakers don't talk like that, so it's not needed.

>"he who reaches for everything obtains nothing"
Imagine letting a single sentence hold you back. Just because it is written doesn't mean it's true. I myself hate the drive towards overspecialization in sentences such as yours or the ones like "jack of all trades, master of none...". With motivation you can be great in multiple areas, just don't sit in front of the TV and your PC when you get home. Kafka had a job and wrote in his off-time, many such cases. Nobody is there to enforce stupid rules, so don't let them bring you down.

More than anything else, I find the "Jewish conspiracy" theories on 4chan frustrating because they feel like a distraction. They feel like a diversion of hatred away from the people who most deserve it: people in positions of power who make decisions behind the scenes. I'm talking about people in executive and manegarial positions of power in finance, in entertainment, in politics, etc.. CEOs of Hollywood companies, Wall Street companies, hedge fund managers, that sort of thing.

Are a lot of them Jewish? Yes. Are ALL of them Jewish? No. And if you chalk everything wrong with the world up to the manipulations of the Jews it's going to get you venting your anger at the wrong targets. That little old rabbi who walks down the street every day isn't the reason you can't get a job and you're up to your eyeballs in debt. A random Jewish person on Twitter isn't responsible for the banks getting bailed out. The Jewish conspiracy posting almost feels like a psyop by the elites. It's yet another way for the people with power and money to distract those who could hurt them away from focusing attention on them. This frustrates me. I want people's anger directed at where it ought to go.

I agree, the whole thing really feels like a psyop. It doesn't help that most jews are neurotic little shits though.
