I'm struggling to understand what you're supposed to do once you realise that you're going to be alone for the rest of your life, that no one will ever love you.
I'm not sure what it's like to be a normal person but a part of me wonders if having a social life, having friends, having a romantic partner that you can build your life around really insulates you from a lot of the misery and sheer pointlessness of a lot of things in this world and so as someone who will never have a boyfriend I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.
Books are basically the only way I've found but I feel the clock ticking as I lose my youth, not that I could ever really actuate that youth since as I said, I'm never going to have a boyfriend and I'll never be loved

Speaking in generalities:

I think women can be just as reasonable as men but on a different timescale. They feel things first, and then work them out later, sometimes it takes weeks, maybe even years.
Women are front-loaded with retardation.
I think this is partly why older, post-menopausal women, can sometimes be incredibly incisive and is probably the root of the wise-woman archetype, women who have outlived their stupidity.

Men tend to go in to problem solving mode immediately, figure out how they feel about things later. This is where half the material for a midlife crisis comes from, unresolved emotional baggage that accumulates and surfaces all at once.

I don't mind that. In my opinion sex appeal isn't about the degree to which you are masculine or feminine. You don't even have to be conventionally attractive as long as you're not a freaking goblin. I'm sure you can find someone who's into you if you connect to your inner personal charm and find confidence. Meet people, go out. Enjoy yourself. There are plenty of bisexual guys with unconventional taste who'd be into you, I'm sure. Seriously.

I was raised with three sisters and no brothers and I can very frequently feel the influence of it. On the one hand, women basically aren't a mystery to me at all. Women are not a big deal and I have no problem talking to them. It's made me a good boyfriend once or twice.

On the other hand, there are some traits and behaviors of men that I confess mystify me to this day, and which I don't really relate to. I don't understand why men aren't more precise, for example, and why they don't take better care of their appearance.

Social conditioning. I'm male and I take care of my appearance. Not in an obsessed fag way but it's important to look well-dressed/clean because it's sexually attractive on an unconscious level. Not just sexually attractive but it also unconsciously commands respect. Men back in the day used to look very dapper, but right basic things like paying attention to yourself are associated with femininity for some reason.

Women are more resource poverty aware and more normal. They tend to have food gathering roles which require a constantly rich environment and constant availability (gathering) while men tend to have more intermittent food hunting roles, which rely on more occasional but larger windfalls. Women will notice the start of famine sooner, or the diminishing of resources sooner. If you are given food tokens every meal and then one meal time someone says "no more meal tokens, you're on your own", you're going to get a much more immediate kind of stress than it you are given food tokens which last a month and half way through a month someone says that maybe next month the free food might stop. Women are primed to notice more of the first kind of stress, and to develop anxiety about the future if the environment is not resource rich enough to ensure survival of kids. (This also explains nesting and cleaning because those are ways of preserving a safe and resourceful environment.)
They're also highly aware of competition and lack of points of difference. This is why women have far more status anxiety, much like the middle class has much more status anxiety. Because women are more likely to cleave to norms in general, to be special enough to be a pick-me, they need to develop point of difference. How PUAs talk about peacocking is very similar to how women attempt to make themselves different enough they might attract a mate who otherwise would consider them the same as any other hole. Men usually complain a woman is crazy and taking all their resources by being time and money consuming and fail to figure out that is a survival strategy. Men only need to hunt a few days a month at most, and that's with poor resources. The other days of the month, women need to find a way of locking down those resources so he doesn't start feeding two gfs instead of feeding one gf and two kids.

Romantic appeal comes with sex appeal, or rather, sex appeal is the first step to romantic appeal. If someone is sexually attracted to you, you can turn your relationship into a romantic one if you act right. Use your charisma.
For the second part of your post, I get what you mean but imo you overthink this. If he wants you sexually and romantically he won't treat you "like a bro", whether you're malebrained or not it doesn't matter, he will behave as your romantic partner. I've been with men/women who were extremely masculine/tomboyish in their behavior but it didn't kill the romanticism, because I was in love with them, wanted to fuck them and be with them. Just talk about it before getting into a relationship, act romantically and you're good. PS. If he feels "too gay" for being with you and it bothers him he is the kind of insecure bitch you don't need in your life.

a quick remainder that posts like this and shit that makes u feel uncomfortable is just some low quality bait and it's kinda obvious.

my thesis:
I think this side is made up of the oppressors and the oppressed. Some write a small, trivial text about everyday things and trigger any young or ignorant people who fall for it and can identify with it. The others secretly laugh at you. This is going on here. Therefore it is an endless cycle that never ends, because the weak fall for it every time and think they are writing to someone who feels something like empathy and understanding for their weaknesses. But the truth is you are only getting ripped off.

And honestly, I'm really sorry for you guys. How many psychopaths do you think there are in the world who are comfortably seated at home / at work, who are well, and just do so for fun / boredom. Who only do this to somehow satisfy their lower urges.

Think about it, Bros. I've always been by your side. But at some point you just get too grown up for it.

Honestly, as if there was nothing more important in my life than a girl, it's stupid to write about it on the internet. Pretty absurd, but of course it's clear that younger people fall for it.

What I mean by that is: don't let something like that trigger you with thoughts like "That's right, he's right. What am I doing here?" but believe a little in yourself. You shouldn't make yourself smaller than you are, but strive for something better and bigger. you should feel comfortable in your skin. and if being alone means "feeling good" for you, then don't bother yourself about it, just enjoy it. nowadays they all blame themselves for every little shit. it cannot go on like this and you have to change something about it. you have to finally start to believe in yourself and have confidence in yourself.

And I'm really tired of saying it over and over again. (Maybe that's the reason why it seems so unrealistic to me now. So that I am already imagining scenarios in my head to be able to understand how one can actually be so naive / or how one can be so difficult to understand.)

I think a lot of us do to some extent. So you acknowledge that your father loves you enough to see inherent value in your being and that you yourself have value as a support for your brother. What’s more is that you yourself view these as good things in your life. Your situation however is not pleasant and you view these good things in your life as what keeps you from taking the only way out. Understandable. However I think you came to the wrong conclusion. I think you feel resentment surely. But I think it’s rightful aim is at your situation and not your family. And I think you do too, since you acknowledge the positive influence of your family in your life. But because a situation is something at the same time ephemeral and complex, with many moving parts, in your frustration with trying to pin it down and deal with your situation, you aimed in the direction of something more concrete. The effect that your death would have on your family. Would you say this is a reasonable conclusion for me to come to?

You want to downgrade me with this expression, but instead I'll give you some new words for your vocabulary so that you can learn something for once too. Schitzo is so worn out by now.

I don't need to mention that I'm not a Schitzo at this point, you will probably figure it out yourself.

So let's get started.

>Apophenia

is the tendency to perceive meaningful connections between unrelated things.[1] The term (German: Apophänie) was coined by psychiatrist Klaus Conrad in his 1958 publication on the beginning stages of schizophrenia.[2] He defined it as "unmotivated seeing of connections [accompanied by] a specific feeling of abnormal meaningfulness".[3][4] He described the early stages of delusional thought as self-referential, over-interpretations of actual sensory perceptions, as opposed to hallucinations.[1][5]

Apophenia has come to imply a human propensity to seek patterns in random information, such as gambling.

>Clustering illusion

The clustering illusion is the tendency to erroneously consider the inevitable "streaks" or "clusters" arising in small samples from random distributions to be non-random. The illusion is caused by a human tendency to underpredict the amount of variability likely to appear in a small sample of random or semi-random data.

"Up to 10,000 points randomly distributed inside a square with apparent "clumps" or clusters"

Oh no problem. I’m just trying to make sure that you don’t pile feeling guilty about resenting your loved ones for making you feel life is worth living onto the other shit you are dealing with. I’m not sure what the solution to your predicament is but it’s certainly not guilt. I will say this, it is unlikely that there isn’t another way out of your situation. Shit there is a lady in New York City that vomits food coloring onto canvas and sells it as art. Who the fuck thinks of that? You just gotta keep looking for your way.

I lost my virginity to a hooker about a year ago. It was underwhelming and I felt very out of it during the whole thing, but the thought alone that I was finally fucking a woman made it a good experience overall.
I went back to another whore this evening (left her apartment thirty minutes ago) and it was probably the most disappointing thing I've ever done in my life.

The first time I thought "hey, I can't cum and I feel out of it but that's just because it's my first time and I'm anxious." I was wrong; this time it was even worse, and I barely had more anxiety than usual.
I literally felt nothing. Touching her, fucking her, I'm not even exaggerating when I say that a simple walk in the park would've brought me vastly more pleasure. I even asked her to cater to my fetishes and it was the same: nothing, no pleasure, no sensation.
I ended up jacking off into a condom while holding her body against mine, then laying down with her for a bit, before fucking off thirty minutes early.

Now I'm back alone at my apartment eating a sandwich and about to watch a movie, I don't even feel an afterglow, I already forgot what she looked like, this experience was less than nothing. It was as mundane as taking a shit except my shits don't usually make me feel so puzzled.
I'm not asexual or any of that tumblr garbage, I jack off and have a normal sex drive. Maybe real sex just isn't my thing? I've given up on "real" women a long time ago, and I thought this could be a decent alternative, but masturbation is a dozen times better.

I wonder what's wrong with me though, it's not like she was ugly or that I care about having a "connection" or whatever, it had nothing to do with all that, it just felt like nothing from start to finish.
I can still smell her perfume on me and it feels unpleasant. What a waste of money, I learned my lesson I suppose.

Just woke a up a little while ago. Early morning of day 2 of my period. Irregular af, first period in 2.5 months. Irl cramps insert into dream as pregnancy, labor pains. Have to poop but don't want to poop the baby into the toilet so I walk around in the dream backing people into corners, telling them I don't want to have a miscarriage. I think about how recently I last drank. Would I be able to give a FAS baby up for adoption? Probably would just keep it. I instagram my baby bump, which looks a little small. Never found out the sex. Everything seems to be going to plan, the baby will be born soon.
...
wake up from dream
feel kind of melancholy because the dream baby wasn't real
go to bathroom, take the biggest period poop ever seen, it's a massive slippery pile of soft-serve shit towering out of the dark red water, already has flies circling the summit. close the lid to flush
now lying on the couch all day with a towel under my ass. pretty glad I don't have a kid I guess, would like them one day though.

"Keep quiet, cantankerous fool." said Gifford. Gifford was a prized ox, gifted by the late sheriff of R_ to the venerable farmer of Convington Fields. "You have done nothing but tickle my temper,but since I am honorable and since I am not pugnacious like that of my great father, I would allow you to grace the fields one last time...that is until I hark your ominous tunes again."

"B-b-but, sir. I have been told. Longhorns told me, he saw th-."

"Enough." replied Gifford. Angered by the calf's pleas, he pondered on the thought of a good butting. But he reiterated, fearing injury to the prodigy that was Dunlop. "My child, have I not warned you about your rash endeavors ? Have I not bargained, begged? Do you remember the last time you brought up such ghastly tirades, at the time of the great escapade of Tessa? The time the poor sow, Belle, left her mother and crashed into the fence? It brought great shame upon me."

Dunlop unceremoniously returned to his cushy habitat under the apple tree the farmer planted, or that's what Dunlop thought since nobody had bothered to elucidate on the origins of the tree. He continued to watch the leaves. The luscious green, reminiscent of his time with his mother, galloping on open courses until he was too tired to do so. Adjacent to the leaf was an apple, and as he stared at it, he chewed over the subject of its creation. The purpose of the sweetness, the smoothness of the skin, th-

"Hey Dunlop." Now came Ruby, a sultry cow.

"What now?"

"You know...what we always do."

"Longhorns told me otherwise." replied an irascible Dunlop. "I told you, the farmer doesn't care about you, he never did. Your sister Abigail? She did not run away, she was sent."

"Sent where?" solemnly replied Ruby.

"Sent to the butchers, you stupid whore. Do you not understand the words of my musings?"

"What butchers?" The very moment she sprayed her words, Dunlop noticed the crows fly towards the depression in the field. "Dark wings, dark words," thought the bull. As he leaped down to catch a better look at the cacophony the birds were making, he stood still at a horrific sight. Gifford lay dead, surrounding him were his harem of vapid cows, as Dunlop referred to them as.

It was at this moment that Dunlop knew, that there was no point in warning the cows for now and the future. He was the stud of this farm now, and if he stopped inseminating the poor girls with his seed, he would be on the truck to the butchers next. All the teachings of Longhorn were futile and the continuous exercise of his mind was useless. Just like how the birth of the tree was to provide fruit to the farm, his was to suck and fuck.

I have no idea how to go about finding I could get along with well enough we could become something to each other, hold importance in each other's lives, no matter the relationship attached. I have build friendships, or rather, they just fell in my lap without me putting in the work, and I always let them slide. I have had romantic relationships too, and liked them enough to be vulnerable with them and see something special when I feel so detached from most people I come across both online/in person, feel so specific about everything I like and want in someone I invite into my life. But mostly I just feel lonely and unhappy in those relationships because they don't give me what I need in one way or another. I don't know what I am doing wrong and it feels fucking hopeless sometimes. I can be likeable once someone knows me, but am often described as intimidating or cold when not.

I want to go back to the era of post war prosperity in America. I want gasoline to be ridicuously cheap, I want music to rock and roll and have soul again. I want cars to actually have soul, where there were actually color choices, instead of the drab black, whites and plain red. I want a pre 9/11 era without the patriot act where we weren't spyed on 24/7. I want women back in the kitchen and I want men to be working. I want a college education that I can pay for with a summer job. I want our history back. I want integrity in our leaders, I want a Kennedy, an Eisenhower, a Truman not a Biden, a Trump or an Obama.

god I hate weddings, social status rituals, having to pay respect to retarded boomers because ???, forced to pay tribute with gifts and cash, listing to women gossip, critique and rank everything. Back in the day it made sense, you had a feast, got drunk and fucked your cousins, nowadays it's all about snide, humble bragging and one upping each other, so tiresome, just send them a toaster and be done with it

marriage is the biggest cuck of that man's life. imagine binding yourself to a toxic cum dumpster of a woman and then begging all your friends to come to the gay ceremony. any man who marries in the 21st century is a KEK and he's also a FAGGOT if he tries to get his friends to validate his shitty decision by coming to the wedding.

Anon, it’s a bit of a tall ask, don’t you think? First of all, he and I have barely spoken since we graduated 5 years ago. We’ve seen each other or spoken maybe once a year and not at all last year. It’s all the way across the country and might as well be a destination wedding on a holiday weekend. I’d be running at least $1k just for plane tickets, hotel, rentals not even including the wedding gift. And if I’m being honest, he was never all that great a friend to me. In fact, the one or two times I could’ve used him to have my back he was nowhere to be found. I really don’t think it’s that ridiculous to decline.

Also if it really were that simple, don’t you think it would be an all expenses paid sort of affair? Instead it’s at one of the most expensive venues in the country and a real black tie affair. If they wanted people to come, shouldn’t they have made it a little easier to do so?

>The checkered grip sinks into the grooves of my palm, the temperature feels cool as a spring draft on my sweat. One last bullet, its bronze cranium completely at peace, in its chamber so tight yet calm. It craves the release and cleansing of fire. It wants to wake from its dream.

>My cold palms had become warm by my limp struggle against my wool trousers on my lap. The surrounding noise of the garden came back for a brief clarity, but now the last door of my life would be surrounded by granite and the decadent gloss of an upper class home; not in a dank crevice, not in a black doorway, not within a comfortable place. The tiny eye of a gun barrel and its expressionless silence was the true face of death: A glance at a kind face from a balcony, a child's finger running down a rain-streaked window, an afterimage of eyes burned into my lids for a millisecond, a lightning streak turned golden braid, one last pretty face: Infinitesimally small, neither cold or hot, relaxed at last. The feeling of being hugged by someone crying sunk with me.

I keep myself going because I see that "something" as a painful but necessary gateway to escaping the modern world and finding peace and freedom. That's all I want at this point. Maybe it's naive, but to escape the "something" that causes you misery you must embrace it. My fear is not only that I'll never get to this point, but that by the time I do my spirit and soul will have been crushed beyond repair and I'll be a spiteful, hollow shell of who I was once was.

What field? Masters or a PhD don't always enhance your career prospects unless you have good experience before you enter. Depends on the field though.

Also email the closest profs and former employers you have ASAP. Talk to them over the phone/zoom or whatever ahead of time. Even if they barely remember you, as long as you weren't a shitty student and convey your passion then they'll be willing to help. I was in a similar position and had to find a recommendation from someone I interned with 4 years ago and two profs I haven't spoken with since 2018 but that got the job done. Each grad school requires a separate submission of an LoR so don't reach out last minute. Also good essays and an early application (most programs use rolling admissions) are key. Depending on your program and situation I could try and answer more questions. Felt the same as you guys but got into Berkeley for grad school and am beginning this fall. You can make it anons.

The way I look at it, we're all a void of silent soul, wrapped in a vibrating string of identity tied to emotion that pulls and is pulled via conversation and interaction. As you get older, you tend to get more in touch with that silence, and more tasks become automatic, as you're no longer learning them by rote.

Thus we're all self programmed NPCs of a sort, void wrapped in experience, and common conversation becomes increasingly pre-programmed and predictable. Interactions have to become increasingly lengthy and deep to have any real meaning, fewer and fewer opportunities abound for that, and the morse code we use online doesn't suffice to make one feel human again by itself, to the degree where places like 4chan sometimes seem like a AI Dungeon simulations. ...and in some ways they are, if only because the level of interaction between its biological nodes is so limited and repetitious, it creates the illusion that NPCs are real - and some people latch onto that to defend their constantly self-checking identities from their own internal silence.

I have some good lines here and there, but that's all I can savage: small fragments. I'm thinking about compiling them into a hazy exploration of memory.
I'm a big fan of fragmentary stuff, from actual fragmented texts (love Sappho), to the romantic tradition of "fragments" (Kubla Khan, Calidore, To the Moon) and beyond into post-T.S Eliot shit. But I'm aware that I might just be using this "aesthetic" to cope with my mediocrity.

awww nahww mayne -.-

I left alone, my mind was blank
I needed time to think
To get the memories from my mind

Six six six, the number of the beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released -.-

I was talking to an ex-muslim atheist late last night and she started asking me about my Christian faith. At first she asked me how i can compromise my faith with science, which I responded by saying that the church fathers didn't take the creation story in Genesis literally over a thousand years ago, before evolution was even a scientific theory, and that cultural context is important to the story of Genesis. At which point she started asking me why God didn't just outright say how he created the world and allow it to be up to interpretation including the unscientific questioning like young earth creationism. I responded with by saying that wasn't the scope of God's message, and that God never provided man with scientific information- that was a task we are to do ourselves, and that's why things weren't corrected.
She responded by saying, "Well to me it just sounds like god didn't know. Why can people be so smart, and then turn off their brains for religion?" And accused me of performing mental gymnastics for the contradictions in the religion I was born and raised with, which I responded by saying I don't really see things as contradictions when I look closely into individual verses. She then started asking why it made any sense for Jesus to be allowed to sacrifice for all of humanity ("You'd have to have a mental disorder to want to die like that") and wouldn't accept "selfless love" as an adequate answer.

Now sure, this conversation was at 3am, but I still felt like I did a bad job defending my beliefs. idk when I'll talk to her again about religion but I think it'll happen again soonish. I think I also needed to explain to her that unlike the Quran, the Bible is not strictly divine, but divinely inspired, written by authors over thousands of years and were kept as scripture to provide a cultural context for the main thesis- the gospels.

>I am experiencing what you may call information overload. My brain is completely fried and it's only getting worse every day. I don't know what to say or to think. It's like I'm just a copy of all the media I've consumed all my life. I don't even know who I am anymore. I think I never had one creative thought in my entire life.

Everybody is a "copy" of their environmental influences in the way you described. It seems like exposing yourself to large amounts of information from disparate viewpoints (even contradictory) forces you to confront this fact, as you can watch your attitudes and feelings about a topic change in real time as you switch from story to story.

Have you looked into meditation?

Hey if you ever decide to look into meditation you might be surprised at what you find. I used to think it was new age woo-woo garbage, but there is a growing amount of scientific literature about its benefits. Just read the wikipedia for more info.

>tfw Catholic and exProtestant atheists always want to quiz me about biblical literacy
FFS biblical inerrancy on every fucking thing is only a recent meme and even then only in some denominations. Half the fucking world has no idea what you're talking about and translates the inerrant wording differently. The fact that your religion started from a retarded meme doesn't mean every religion that started from a retarded meme used the same meme.

Really wish I could find a self improvement community that wasn’t filled with thirsty weirdos and rightoids that think black people will cease to exist if they stop touching the penises. Very little actually focus on health and well-being it seems.

Yeah and then 80% of the time the "contradiction" is some weak bullshit like "how many people died in this siege?" and there's one account in Numbers that says "800 people died in the siege" and then another verse in Joshua that says "500 people died in a single day" and they call this a contradiction. It's all tiresome.

But simply saying "I'm not turning my brain off for my religion" isn't an acceptable answer because when you accuse someone of being in cognitive dissonance over their religion, they're going to say "no I'm not" no matter what. So I don't know how to answer it because it's a gotcha trap from the start.

I've done nothing in the past month but drown in my own self-hatred and self-pity, make suicide plans I didn't carry on, regreting my past and worring about the future. I'm lost.
I've kept pushing my mental problems instead of treating them, hoping that a miracle would happen and I would magically put my shit together and now they've taken their toll and I don't know what to do.

I litterally have bats in my belfry! I just moved in here and found these little guys squatting here. I hate to kick them out because they eat all the skeeters and other bugs that would fuck my orchard, but I can't just let them rot my wooden roof with their excretions. Planning on building a bathouse or two on a pole in the yard then chasing them out by putting ultrasonic repellent devices around. Any anons delt with something similar?
