So I have a problem: I need to stop using this place (and by extension, all time-wasting internet), but I can't bring myself to just go cold turkey and never come back here again. So I've decided that, during the week, I won't come here (or use Reddit or YouTube, etc) at all; I will only use the internet for essential stuff like school or paying bills or work, but during Saturday and Sunday, I can go and check social media and come and shitpost with you guys. That way, the majority of my week is spent productively but I still get to have some fun. I'm going to try it out this coming Monday.
At first I was worried I would miss something by being gone most of the week, but the last time I left for almost a month and nothing happened really, and if anything important does happen, I will definitely still be hearing about it after a week.

You are not irresponsible because you are sick in the head, you act sick in the head because you are irresponsible. Being realistic,rational, and responsible will cure your “mental illness” better than any ssri. Becoming a worthwhile person in your eyes will make you feel worthwhile to others. Respect your body and mind, be responsible and feed it the healthiest substances and thoughts you can. Lastly, humans are spiritual beings and if you neglect this aspect of you you will be unhealthy. Be sure you are not toking the flames beneath you because you have grown used to the smell of roasted ass.

Women got the rights because they deserved it. Any nation that doesn't give women rights is bound to fall behind because after the industrial revolution a lot of professions were open to women. If you don't allow half of your population to become engineers and scientists, you won't keep up with the other nations and get outpaced technologically and militarily. Giving women rights is GOOD to keep your country competitive. The problem is men are faggots who can't control women like the natural order dictates despite them having "rights". Women should have rights. Men should men up and stop being cucks. It's typical of a cuck like you to blame women though becaues you're not man enough to take responsibility and coincidentially you and your kind are also responsible for the downfall of civilisation. My woman has well-deserved and earned rights and also respects me and understads men lead relationships.

Every night, 3 or 4 AM comes around and whaddya know, we're still in the world of the living until near or past whence day comes breaking down our windows & blowing it's white light into our eyes.

If you go purely on growth it doesn't make sense. Eastern Europe has seen a greater rise in economic growth yet their birth rate is lower than the west. Same in South Korea vs North Korea. Alternatively countries like Afghanistan and certain African countries have seen a rise in birth rate despite terrible economic results. I think it shows a lot that you think it's economics that influences birth rates. Looking at economics first and foremost is an outdated way of looking at it, something that should have ended in 2010s.

Of course I can. Without economic growth you can't afford new places to live in and jobs for your children. It's called the Malthus effect. I do accept that GDP growth is not the best measure and wealth inequality may mean that despite apparent economic growth, it won't trickle down to the lower classes who are most fertile. Nonetheless, there is an obvious correlation between needing more resources and being able to grow the population. How can you deny something so evident?
>And you can Lol all you want but it's true. It's an outdated way to analyses the world and societies.
I don't care about what's outdated because it has little bearing on what's true. Race realism is also outdated and anything that is not social constructivism. Economists said immigration doesn't keep wages down despite it obviously being false.
>And you talk about a large bounce, I'm talking about coming back from being below replacement level.
That's just no true scotsman. The bounce will happen when there will be enough resources to allow whites to buy houses to live in and to make sure their children have jobs to work at. First halting immigration then deportation.

Obviously a country should grow, but to say that that is the main factor in birth rates is just not true. And people typically do not decide not go get kids because they might have a tough time finding a job in 20 years, that's ridiculous. The main reason birth rates are down is because of birth control and women having a path besides becoming a mother. It's telling you start talking about economics over those 2 issues.

And where was the bump in fertility in the period of growth (80's and 90's)?
From what I can see across multiple countries it went up about 0.2 which is almost negligible. And that's with decades of high growth. It's a simple fantasy that you'll get birth rates up to replacement level by just focusing on economics.

That's not how it works. Jobs not being available affects you today as it affects your possibility to settle. If there are jobs available for your children, then there are plenty available for you as well. Why don't you just read pic related actually? It goes over the arguments well or is it too outdated for you? The fact that you talk about outdated theories is telling of your intellectual mindset too.
> The main reason birth rates are down is because of birth control and women having a path besides becoming a mother.
Similarly, I can say because of low economic growth, women can't afford to be a stay-at-home mother while supporting their family. You give more importance to cultural factors, I give more important to economic factors. I see no reason to prefer your view at all.
>And where was the bump in fertility in the period of growth (80's and 90's)?
Why has the fertility rate been going down in ME? Is it also because of feminism? There just aren't enough resources to support the increase of population while also providing decent living conditions. Humans adapt consciously or subconsciously which has downstream effects on reproduction choices. It happens to all organisms: a self-regulating principle of population control that ensures there are sufficient resources for the size of the population. This has been discussed not since Malthus, but since the dawn of history as even the Trojan War was interpreted by Greeks to have been a war of regulating the increased population of Greece (and Europe in general because it was just before invasions from the north.)

You take your views from a few decades of observations and academic consensus, I look at history and prehistory and notice that resources is a powerful regulator of human and animal population. Your view will be "outdated" in a few decades.

You're getting to be snarky while making less and less sense. You specifically said
> you can't afford new places to live in and jobs for your children

No one having kids is thinking about the jobs of their children. And besides, in current western countries this is not an issue yet birth rate is low. Does the Somalian think about the job prospect of their children or do they just fuck and have kids because they don't have birth control like we do?

>I see no reason to prefer your view at all.
Obviously you don't because you're deep in your dogma of economic thought. Never mind that I have shown that growth does not correlate with birth rate increases. You not seeing how women being grown up on birth control has a higher factor on them having fewer kids rather than them not knowing whether their kids will have jobs in 20 years shows how deep in the dogma you are.

You also sidestepped my argument of the lack of birth rates growing during decades of high economic growth. You quoted it but sidestepped it completely. You want me to talk about the ME when you haven't explained how during decades of economic growth fertility barely rose, and didn't come close to replacement levels.

You're seething and this reply has been by far the most pathetic. Your view is outdated because it has been proven WRONG by real examples. Economic growth does not lead to a spike in birth rate. You haven't been able to prove it even a little bit.

Time on the chan sites have caused my mind to spin into a chaos. I no longer can tell apart my ironic shitposts from what I firmly believe, stating complete opposite and incompatible opinions in one thread and then the next. Anonymity completely breaks down any form of socialized self-monitoring of one’s beliefs, thoughts and statements. I enjoy typing out and posting utterly horrible things which in my heart of hearts I don’t truly believe but which I find humorous and cathartic to indulge. I have learned a niche and obscure dialect of memetic cues and catchphrases that only allow me to engage and communicate with an anonymized and often equally disassociated pseudo-community of transient others engaged in the same futile language game.

My capacity to take venerable or pressing issues seriously has deteriorated as I intersperse sincere comments with crass and often peurile comments . I have developed a taste for trolling and savor observing anti-social activities online as if they were performance art. I luxuriate in the giddy limbic thrill of uttering ethnic and racial slurs and articulating forbidden thoughts. All the while I color this untoward behavior with a self-conscious half ironic half serious and paper-thin Stirnerian philosophy as if to rationalize my descent into decoherence instead as being the operations of a higher and more complex grade of mind that has transcended social mores and enjoys unlimited freedom of thought and mental autonomy. While I do this I the post above mine is about someone jerking off to anime and the other one is by a kid who wants to shoot up his school. The mounting inconsistency of my shitposts verges into pure randomness .

Thanks to this site and how much fun I have on it I don't know what I believe or think any more. Everything has glommed together into a mass of irony and sarcasm. And you know what? In a weird way I might just be better for it. Perhaps it is better to say it all, unleash the beast, rather than remain a hushed up good boy all my life even when granted the rousing and heady stimulant of anonymity to play with.

CHAMBER OF SOLAR IMAGERY
concentricity that paused,
slow enough to burn after the escape of its summit
and keeps designs for curious imagery that traces
the warm and palpitating sides of a man before he faints.
simple so that it shears the roughness from air and faraway objects
as quickly as it abandons a fantasy, living as a sort of eye without organs
and an eversion of the eyes.

I can feel another depressive episode coming on after a good two years of feeling good. I have a pretty different attitude to the whole thing these days. Back in the day I almost enjoyed it, in that idiotic way as some people love having a mental illness to make them feel special. Now I'm facing it as something to survive, get rid of, end as soon as possible. I feel that it's a definite improvement, but this time I'm genuinely afraid of reaching the same lows again.

How the fuck do I leave 4chan? This is the only site that I still go to and it make me miserable. I hate every second I spend here.
The problem is that I cannot cut this last thread from the online world or I'll become completely 100% isolated. I have spent my life online for the most part and with a good reason: I hate my town. It's the most awful hellhole you can imagine. Being online has pretty much saved my life, but now it's indistinguishable from the shitty environment I was trying to escape from. Everyone is vile and disgusting.
I have tried a bunch of smaller alternatives and they all suck for one reason or the other. Mainly that the more niche you go, the more degenerate the users will be. I really need to move up on this ladder, but anywhere outside of here is just a Reddit tier social media nightmare made of screeching attention seekers.
I was thinking of going back to IRC but IRC is dead, there is a reason why I quit using it. I've been juggling this shit for months and months, I have to stop making excuses and just admit that I have to leave the internet for good. How the fuck do I prepare myself so I don't come crawling back to this shithole?

the only emperor, is the emperor of ice cream. the only thing that should rule are the transient joys we face in everyday life, the ones you must not take for granted. They are the ones that fill out your everyday life, like that first cup of coffee, or the smell of fresh morning air. We are incapable of comprehending those ideas and thoughts that are permanent and never-ending. We face death in our dreams with rude awakenings and sweat covered sheets, because of our incapability of imagining that which is beyond. We don't think of ourselves in systems, or can really comprehend the lives of others. We are simply other worlds to each other. It is because of this divide that we inherently are attracted to things filled with immediacy, as they have the most impact on our lives in the here, and the now. They prove to us that we exist as individuals in a set space, that "I" am really here, right now, writing out this on a board, as I expect to see either a response to these words, or have it electronically published right here, in front my own eyes. The impact of this is immediate, and I can see from my own writing that I have made a dent more so in my own soul, rather than add to the greater whole. We are individuals, we all have our own desires, therefore the most attractive desires will never be those that are either communally based or non-material. We will never place big-picture goals above the immediate, we slaves to the emperor, the emperor of ice-cream.

I don't understand how adults without kids can enjoy Halloween and the "Halloween season." Trick or treating is lots of fun when you're a kid, and when you're a teenager it's a chance to get out of your parent's house and go to parties and have sex or whatever. For adults, Halloween means playing along with either of these two activities depending on how old your kids are. If you don't have kids, there's nothing for you to do except watch from a distance like some kind of pervert. An adult without kids of their own who still gets really into Halloween strikes me as a weirdo or a terminal nostalgia addict.

The state of Psychiatry is kind of pathetic when you look at it objectively. I have a hunch that Psychiatrists don't even believe in their own profession, because if they did, they would actually be engaged in treating a patient like doctors are. Instead all the psychs I've seen have this totally disinterested mentality like they're not actual medical professionals, but more like human vending machines for pills that could literally be automated and for 99% of patients it wouldn't make a difference. I don't want to be too mean, I'm sure there are good ones out there, but if you've ever been through this stupid system I'm sure you know how totally ineffective most of these guys are at doing anything other than handing out an SSRI.

Met a girl by fate or fluke last week. A girl from my past. One I felt obscenely comfortable with, as we sat and talked for five hours straight. Just being around her filled me with vigor, with a sneaking joy. She had a boyfriend who she put down repeatedly, even after he finally arrived. Something in me wished to rob him, to take her like some maiden, to be a savage. I sewed it up, I got home, drowned in her, and sewed it up, I'm stuck now with her face, a tumor in me, an aching void of want. I refuse to text her, I refuse on all grounds to try to split them, or to become some orbiter. Within me gnaws a hunger that I had left maimed for dead. I have no one to listen to this, so forgive me, I tried to do the right thing for everyone, but I still feel I've done wrong. Should I be a beast, a ravaging monster? I refuse. I just want that ache to die, to return to my dusty books in my filthy hovel, and to forget it all. I was just minding my own business, I wasn't hurting anyone!

I'm writing a Cthulhu Pen and Paper adventure for my friends but I'm kinda stuck. It is supposed to be a oneshot set in India, 1924. I watched a lot of black and white videos from the BFI archive of that time (very comfy btw) and read up on wikipedia articles of what happened around that time. i tried to look up some hindi slang and speech patterns to make the dialogues more believeable. the characters seem pretty fleshed out, but my main story is lacking. something something time travel portal in a temple in tunisia in 1899 and the hostess learned of the old ones while traveling through the ages. the players can find some documents which are clearly from other timelines and come to their own conclusion as to what is the meaning of this. in the end they have to fight a huge triceratops skeleton. i now think this is stupid, but i am already too invested to change it now.

When I was 20 y/o I dated this cosplayer girl, she went by the name of The Lady of the Lake, when we were dating I didn’t knew her real name, just that she hated it. When we had dates together, she was kind of a bitch, at the same time I was forceful, really an incel kind of mindset, a douchebag on purpose. She used her cellphone a lot and I didn’t. She was busy working and I didn’t. We lived in two separate cities, I was a really spoiled child, so I didn’t have my own means for transporting myself, I relied on a lot into my family, which was overprotective during my up bringing. I never developed a spine at that time, I never thought that I could endure this relationship and get to know her. Over some petty shit I ghosted her. And we never spoke to each other again. We used to watch anime movies, and she had great taste. We watched together the Song of the Sea. Years later by some stalking, I realized her real name was Selene. She was pretty and used to paint her hair blue, she was into pagan stuff, while I was a normie focusing on my studies, failing at that too, so I had to focus, which resulted in blocking her. I was also a /pol/rack. Almost six years later, I am getting into pagan-spiritual stuff, I am not less of a loser I was then, but I am more willing to hear women, and perhaps get to understand them, rather than dominating them. I think I own something to the moon, like would she forgive me? and why does it matter? at times it feels I don’t have any right to talk to witches, but all that cringy stuff, it helped me grow as a person.

Something is going to happen to the world, or at least to human society. I do not know what exactly will happen or when it will happen, but it will happen. I am certain that this is going to happen, and that certainty may be truth or the product of my delusions. It may be a great blessing, a great catastrophe, or somehow both.
Whatever it may be, it will be a cleaning and a reset of the structures of culture, and we will be reduced as to insects scrambling to safety after the shelter of their log or stepping stone was lifted. We, or what may be left of us, will then have to take the responsibility of refederating something resembling a society anew.
However, we cannot simply pick up where we left off. Some of our modern conveniences, such as the Internet and major electricity grids, will be downed for good, whether it be by whatever happens or the mutinous revolts resulting. Automobiles may still exist, but would be considered a luxury, as many of them may be destroyed and who would be there to supply the gasoline? Who would be there to turn the crude oil into gadoline? Who would be there to extract the crude oil?
Everyone in this thread do yourselves a favor and learn bushcraft, off-the-grid living, and other related subjects.

Whenever I'm alone I feel overwhelming sadness and physical pain in my body because I've never had anyone to love romantically.
This has been ongoing for years.
The reason why is because of my social anxiety. When you're male and have social anxiety, people just let you rot by yourself if you're unable to make friends so I never learned how to socialize. When I try to my throat tightens up and my voice cracks and my thoughts freeze up. I also do and say retarded shit that gets me weird looks from people when I try to interact with them. The prospect of social interaction makes me panic. My heart pounds. Women don't find that attractive.

Imagine if all of a sudden, and with no warning, your life plunged into a pure hell and stayed that way for years. You're about 14 years old, and suddenly everything you learned up to that point is thrown away, and you must learn the ropes all again for this new private inner reality. Still you share the same physical world as healthy people, and you pass for normal at a distance, but in truth you're struggling against a fight completely different from every other person around you.

There are some "cures" science knows about but you've tried more than a dozen, and none of them worked for you. Actually they didn't even have an effect, not a single reaction, except for two cures. And even then, those cures only helped a little, and stopped doing anything within a few weeks. So no matter what, you are steeped in this hell reality, burning all the time, and not even your closest family understands what is happening. The flames are so hot that you are overwhelmed - you want to grab the attention of someone and say, jesus christ, can't anyone see I'm burning here? - but no one does. If anyone could at least understand the extent of what you're going through, it would help, but that appears increasingly unlikely.

This has been my life for 7 years. Every day life is just finding a new coping mechanism to pass the time. When there's minimal hope for you, how do you even keep going? This is the question I struggle with daily.

i probably do a lot of mental damage to myself by going on my local city's subreddit regularly and reading the comments of dumb white people. i don't post, i'm not that much of a faggot, but i guess i should probably stop.

Anon, I hope you have a job. You have to meet other men. Reading by its nature is passive and effete. Writers don't know anything. When you intellectualize something you lose its essence. You need to spend time with other men, watch how they hold themselves, what they talk about, what they DON'T talk about, and how they spend their time.

I worked in construction for a few years, but those guys have their limits. They have good "frame", but they're often unambitious, poor, and alcoholic. So they basically have the masculinity that only works on the most bottom rung of society. Plenty of machismo, but mostly all talk and posture. Don't take cues from men who don't have any money.

Most men who have only been in school and in office jobs also have their limits. The office is a feminine environment. Office environments also permit too much isolation, and these men, even the best of them, are not that socially capable. Working too long in an office also erodes your sense of masculinity and femininity. It's a unisex nightmare, run by women -- HR is 76% women in the US.

Basically, I'll just say that self-employed men, successful men of any time, and those with a diverse history are the best to learn from. This is one great fucking reason to stop being poor if you're poor (or IF you're poor, start ingratiating yourself with more successful people), because you can't learn anything from poor people. Their lives are proof of that.

I can call them of course, but it's not the same and I don't want to bother them too much. It's been days since I had human contact outside of cashiers and the turkish kebab guy. This hasn't been the case for a long time and I feel like I can't handle it these days.

I don't know if my parents are dysfunctional by general standards but their arguing is becoming the straw breaking the camel's back. I just want it to stop, I have too much else I'm struggling to deal with. No one to talk to about it either

I want to take some time off working but I also want to move to a new city. I can’t really do both. In order to move to a new city, I’d have to take a new job and if I take a new job I obviously can’t quit this one.

I just wanted to be a composer of late-romantic music. Everything that is taught and praised at music school is atonal / microtonal / serialist garbage. Why is every art form dead?

>> No.19163297

>>19163276
That's because arts schools want to maximize admissions, so they lower the bar. Can't exclude the retards by enforcing taste, or God forbid, tone.

>> No.19163334

>>19163297
But new tonal works aren't even performed anymore, outside of Blockbuster film music. Also, art school is free here. That can't be it. Or the only reason, at least.
How can anyone like this? What mental gymnastics do I have to do to listen to this and think: "Yeah, I'd like to make something like that."

What the fuck is that? Anyway, the reason this sort of stuff is likely praised is that the world of academic art, music included, just turned back on itself and away from society. They make shit only they "like", either finding some strange beauty in it or just pretending to like it to keep the illusion going so they don't get ostracized. Same reason contemporary art is shit. And the fact that almost everything beautiful and impressive you can imagine has already been done so it's hard to make original stuff.

Fair point. But it's still pretty simple: "democratize" the art forms, and then nobody is excluded. "Everybody can be an artist!" Even though statistically this is impossible since only a small minority are creative, and then a yet smaller minority actually produce anything. It's a joke, it's a just a big playground for overgrown children.
Then you have the effect where "educated" people assume something is wrong with them for not naturally liking this stuff, so they pretend, and its off into obscurantism. Same thing happens in my field (painting).

By the way, I've noticed that the biggest champions of postmodern art are NOT artists themselves. That's because when you actually engage with artwork, you learn there are rules, and tastes, which immediately apply. Otherwise you would not be motivated to work.

>> No.19163389

I feel I've lost the desire to learn, to read, or do anything that doesn't involve some sort of productive activity... When I'm not working I'm tired and want to do mindless things like 4chan. Can't help but feel whatever creative spirit I did have has been erased. Whatever vigor I have is sapped and used up by everyone but me. All I get in return is a pittance with which I can afford comfort. I know this, and yet I persist. Comfort at the cost of your soul!

>> No.19163429

I can't help but think it also has to do with the psychology of the art world -- which represents a very small minority of privileged young White people in urban areas. Many of my art colleagues are NOT creative types, a fact which continues to stagger me. They're essentially misfit children who went to art school because they imagined it's better than working. That's it. The art world offers an extended adolescence.
Also, the "postmodern" movement has completely handicapped emerging artists, because it basically offers a way out, an "explanation" for why your art sucks so badly. It creates a feedback loop of bad artists, and it happens to work out perfectly for people who go to art school precisely as an escape from responsibility.

This sentiment certainly exists but I don't think that it's the reason for works like the one I posted. These people are able to write beautiful tonal works, they just don't. They need to innovate at all costs and as an effect alienate all of their potential listeners outside of academia and the music world.

I FUCKING HATE this fucker SO MUCH IT PHYSICALLY PAINS ME. Why do I even bother texting you? What the hell is wrong with me and why can't I stop. Just die, it'd be better that way. The sadness may not go away but I can at least accept we're not gonna be the same as before. Maybe I can trick my mind to do it, whatever I can do to keep myself away from thinking that you exist. In that case, you'd become my unattainble object of desire - it could have always been like this, only if I had kept my mouth shut

it's fairly likely I will die of old age, maybe 70% or so, but I expect that ripe old age will be roughly 60. now because I have bad habits or anything, I just know that mental illness can reduce your life expectancy a lot (having accounted for suicide), and I highly doubt my system will sustain much more than 60 years of this

They all end up working 9-5 anyway, so I don't know what you're talking about. I think I know ONE guy who lives off his art, and it's only because his family is in the industry, and he was well-off anyway, so it doesn't count.
