Write what's on your mind

anonymous blogposting is the modern day notes from the underground, I only wish that blogposters would give us juicier details and show some more verbose self-hatred

god these memes are fucking unfunny
i cant wait to kill all facebook shits

What do the spirits tell you?

It's called getting older mate. As a stud in the UK I could have any slag I laid eyes on. Diminishing returns is what it is. I can only get satisfaction from working on something that I love.

They do not speak in but a whisper amongst themselves, of ancient wisdom from the roots of the Absolute and the branches of reality.

I want to hang with communists so I can hang them

>as a stud in the UK I could have any slag I laid eyes on
I swear British people intentionally caricature themselves.

How do you know they have great wisdom if you cant hear then?

Communists are hung (large penis)

Vans hat, breadloaf Was, he's a out 100 pounds overweight with a 'like me, don't hurt me' permanent grin. Years of being bullied have pushed him into the common here where he has protection with a group of equally insecure children. Forever escaping from the unsurity of the world into the purity of video games, beer and porn. What thought them to this point was that day in 5th grade when Tommy called him tubby and everyone laughed because instead of standing up for himself he looked around for teacher. This scar of 'the other' as a predator has taken full mental form forcing oneself into a perpetual state of cowardice. And here I go again teasing his shoes, maybe he'll stand up to me this time.

Holy SHIT. I am so fucking depressed and neurotic, I don't know what to do.

My fucking dad is completely out of it- he's fucking dying and I hate myself but I just want him to die already so I don't have to watch him turn from someone I used to love and respect into this sad, regretful creature. I feel so bad even thinking that, but I can't- I can't help him. He lives in the us and I live in europe. I don't have any money. I'm too fucking depressed to work, so I only have enough money to support myself. I can't afford to send him money or visit him, and I hate myself for not having a job and... I had a flashback about a really bad time in my childhood a couple hours ago, so now I'm really fucking sad and fucked up and I just want to cry and kill myself.

I want to write something ironic and funny, but I can't even bring myself to do that. I'm sorry.

I try to be nice on Veeky Forums, at least sometimes, but even if I just earnestly answer to posts, I just get called a soyboy cuck faggot because I don't fill any meme requirements that some fat fuckin' neckbeard decided was "alpha" that fucking minute. Like, how can there be so many fuckwits on this godforsaken shithole board that are so unaware about- literally anything? IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY. It's like that guy I once saw on a documentary once.
"Who are you gonna vote?"
"Republican! I've voted republican for 50 years!"
"Why?"
"They're gonna give us (farmers) money!"
"Have they ever given you money before?"
"Well, no... but... they will!"

Except it's about EVERYTHING!
"Oh, there are so many books about gays and woman and racism and whatever! It's pandering! Disgusting!"
"Do you think it's because those are current topics, and that's what people want to read about? Do you think it's because there's a much larger platform for those kinds of people to express themselves?"
"NO! IT'S BECAUSE OF JEWS! WOMEN CAN'T WRITE AND FAGGOTS ARE SINNERS!"

I once got into an argument, see, because I said, "Basic morals are evolutionary: if you're nice to people, they're less likely to murder you and more likely to help you" which, I think makes sense, especially if you live in social groups. And then all I got was smug shitheads going "oh, but why should I help people? HUUUH? Check mate!" And then I got called a cuck. Like, how are you supposed to respond to that? That is a physical inability to comprehend basic logic.

Or, people against gun control? That's a different topic all together, but that's fury inducing. There is NO reason against gun control, it's been IRREFUTABLY PROVEN TO WORK and people STILL don't get it? There were 29 school shootings in america! MY BROTHER LIVES THERE! What if one day? Someone calls me and tells me they're very, very sorry, but your brother is dead because the NRA has their dick in everybody's ear? Fuck you! Look at the fucking statistics! Guess which one's the US!

What

Youre a soyboy cuck faggot. For real

Gay and weak

Heroin

seeing as everyone is so fucking pathetic whats the point in even trying to do write something good? what if one of those freaks actually likes it? what would that say about me?

Go for econ bro. Philosophy is hard as fuck.

I now realize that nihilism, cyniscim and depression are like AIDS: Once you catch them, you never stop having them, you just have temporary periods of reprieve.

sometimes i want to become a bouncing betty and bounce horizontally into the dams if you know what i mean :^)

H-heh heh, t-that's not t-t-true (desperately flips through Bible)

>giving a fuck about a neckbeard's definition
nigga get a grip
please be wrong

If that's the only argument for traditional morals it's pretty depressing desu, it implies that actually caring for anyone plays no real role into it and that it all just boils down to playing along for the sake of self-preservation.

>You mention playing video games as a rewards and I immediately wonder: how much of your problem is the fact that video games made you get used to fast and easy rewards? How much did you desensitize your innate reward system by video games? I'm probably going to get down voted for this remark but I encourage every gamer feeling the urge to down vote to take a critical look at themselves before doing so, be honest, my interest in this is also honest. In the digital world nowadays many things are optimized for fast rewards, real life is not.

gamers btfo

>>giving a fuck about a neckbeard's definition
>nigga get a grip
I mean, I don't usually, but sometimes I have a bad day.

Well, yes. Everything boils down to self preservation, but that doesn't invalidate the fact that it's a good thing. I mean, sex feels good so we have motivation to propagate the species, but it still feels good. It's just an argument to undermine edgy shitheads trying to justify being an asshole.

Vladasovich, stood poised on the cast iron staircase, a sentence trailing off in his head that he thought was going somewhere, a thread he continued to follow despite only finding blank space, only finding loose yarn, and a clarity of vision overtook him as he saw over the distant towers at the even more distant hills in the horizon and a deep contentment washed over him, yes, a deep warmth of home and childhood, and mother by the brook in the morning where the smell of burning pine was resonant and the soft earth below, oh heaven in the hills, he sighed. Mother was dead now. He was here to collect the things in her flat. Her ashes sit in a coffee container on the nightstand. Vladisovich assures himself that he will not be overcome with a torrent of emotion, because Vladisovich is stoic, because Vladisovich does not weep, because Vladisovich is a man now, and not a boy.

>read through soy drenched whinge
>link the the nytimes

yup checks out lol

is this a creative writing assignment to take on the persona of the most smarmy liberal or are you actually for real?

Go back.

go back to hacker news? gladly. oh, did u think i was from reddit? stop projecting ur innermost soys.

That's the problem. Videogames have a clear and consistent reward system, real does not. I could spend years of my life working on a paper proving my scientific hypothesis only for it to be debunked in a couple or months, or I could pick up a sport and perform better than professionals who played for years. There is no consistent proportional effort=proportional reward system irl, so I stopped putting effort because at least that is consistent no effort=no reward. Its speaks volumes that such a massive number of people would prefer a fictional world to the real one. Real life needs to step up its game

Not him, but you got so buttmad that you use reddit-insults to disclaim you're from reddit.

videos games don't always give u a reward tho, what about those fags who spend 12 hours a day grinding bosses in WoW hoping to get that 5% drop piece of gear, yeah i guess if it drops 5% and you do it 20 times u statistically guaranteed to get it, but that's not much worse than life, also skill games like shooter have the same pareto distribution power law whatever shit where the top 1% of people are like 1000 times better than you which is the same as pro-sports

how do we fix this boys? i don't even want to know how many potential great minds of tomorrow we've already lost to video games

The whole question is pretty stupid. Since the question is redirecting blame onto the new generations instead of the real issue: baby boomers.
>baby boomers get buttmad their kids aren't winning anything
>force establishment to give "participation prizes"
>kids don't fucking want them.
>imposter syndrome is rises exponentially.
>If you don't go to collage, you'll have failed at life
>kids become completely neurotic
>put themselves into horrific debt to go to collage because everyone said they had to
>we can't find jobs
>we don't want all this debt
>Baby boomers: look at all these spoiled little babies! It's because of participation prizes!
Who the fuck gives a shit about video games? We're all fucked.

because MMOs are glorified skinner boxes designed to keep you hooked. Overtime you level up you get a little dopamine rush, but the experience required for the next level increases in order to get you addicted like a rat that pushes a button that delivers a food pellet at random. real life is like that except that humans are capable of awareness so they realize how the system works

Believe me your dialect sounds just as ridiculous to us

>If you don't go to collage, you'll have failed at life

if you don't go to college u might not have failed at life, but u will probably know how to spell college at least, god i hope this was a troll

loot boxes are gambling ban them xd

Holy shit this question is so relevant to my life rn. I went for maths w/ econ. 6 months in I'm bored as shit thinking to change to maths w/ philosophy. My only background with philosophy is lurking Veeky Forums and reading some nietzsche and the stoics tho so idk. Would love some advice on this.

I want to stop drinking, I want to go back to church, I want to start a family.

I want western society as a whole to take responsibility for their mistakes and acknowledge their regrets, but I can't even do that with mine.

I want to read more non-fiction too, desu

Yeah, you have to go back.
What were the mistakes of western society?

I used to feel this way. The way I see it the lack of a correlation between effort and achievement is a result of not clarifying what "achievement" is in a given game. By game I mean any work related activity. Even production of hamburgers in a McDonald's is a "game." You can fix it by clearly defining the parameters of the game in your head, and having a concrete idea of achievement. It's good to set the bar low at first and simply work your way up. For instance, when I first started writing, "success," was getting 1,000 words on a page. Now "success" to me is getting published. However it is important to note that I don't get a dopamine rush from being published, but from overcoming obstacles within the writing itself, making the work a perpetually renewable game as obstacles are bound to arise. Also stop playing video games, they're a waste of energy.

>Apple Music "My New Music Mix" updates
>it's 95% rap

why? i don't listen to that much rap and when i do it's old boombap shit not lil uzi vert homosexual stuff, step ur algorithms up apple

It's my grandmas birthday and I'm late. She's like 90. I didn't even buy a present yet. I really don't want to go. Somebody kill me please.

put google analytics on your blog/app/whatever and get obsessed with pumping ur stats, just don't spam ok

I cant seperate hella from master and margherita from pic related. Too cowardly for suicide but this is fine too.

Mere shitposting is no longer enough. I must create the Confederacy of Dunces of the 21st century.

>real life is like that except that humans are capable of awareness so they realize how the system works
ex wow addict here. everyone who plays wow realizes this too. that realization doesn't help from enjoying it. hell, it might make it even more fun because then you know how to abuse it for maximum pleasure. and i think the "glorified skinner box" term doesn't quite cut it, i think a big part of it is the community and society-like feeling with status symbols such as mounts, gear, "respected"/well-known guilds etc, which just add to that feeling of accomplishment and superiority.

i think the difference is though that you have to set the "goals" for yourself, and most of them are not objectively encouraged in any way. if you write 1000 words, nothing happens. if you get max level on video games you get a loud DING, an achievement, your guildies congratulate you, you've got loads of new possibilities etc etc. also the video game reward is somewhat guaranteed, whereas in life it's always a gamble and there's many factors involved you can't control

>if you write 1000 words, nothing happens.

well looking at it from a broad perspective when u level up in a video game nothing _really_ happens either

obviously, but i wasn't looking at it from a broad perspective. looking from the perspective you're experiencing actively the dopamine and feeling of accomplishment is not comparable.

Honestly, what kind of Dostoevsky tier writer would choose Veeky Forums as outlet for his ramblings over privately collecting them in notes? Whenever you try to post some real shit on here - emphasis on the try, don't pretend you're expecting top tier writing - people just sperg out at you, pointing out "autism" (I'm putting quotations around its ironic usage here, keep up) when it's actually just a random guy getting passionate for a minute. Veeky Forums gets intimidated by a post that gets into "autistic detail" on one single thought because they subconsciously realize they're too embarrassed of their trains of thought to present them in their raw form themselves. People on here are more concerned with not giving their readers an angle of attack than with presenting their ideas in an interesting way.

why is it wrong that I want to fuck beautiful women? Everytime I post about being sex obsessed and sexually frustrated, everyone tells me bro it's not worth it just do something else like, ignore your urges dude

It's fucking infuriating because either those people have a smaller lilbido then me, or they had better sex then me so they got over it, or they simply accepted their own inferiority and stopped trying

It's not wrong in itself, but it's wrong to value it over important shit. If you can't get yourself to care less about sex then start caring more about you should be doing.

I feel you man. There's so much ironic and sincere /pol/shit on this board it's incredible. Ever since they started their ebin crusade to "red-pill" the "liberal" boards this site went to absolute shit.

I suggest leaving this site, and just come every so often to find some decent threads. Hopefully they will get bored in a year or so.

I'm sorry about your situation btw. Just try not to kill yourself. Try asking your friends (if you have) for money, or beg some random people (I'm not kidding) to gather enough money to visit your dad.

You sound like a whiny cunt who reads what he wants from things that are actually completely different. Nobody is telling you not to have sex, but so many people on here think sex is going to be the life-changing experience that will solve all of their problems and fill that 'hole' they feel inside of them. There's nothing wrong with a good fuck, but like a 5-star meal or a good movie it's not going to magically change your life and fix all of the existential problems you've wrapped your mind up in. The only people who think women will fix their problems are people who don't have a lot of experience with women.

they want gf’s because their brains have low oxytocin, serotonin and dopamine. if they had gf they would have higher resting amounts of it and would be more functional humans. very few of them think its going to make everything better, but it will allow them to feel human, worthy, awake.

You seem to miss the point that sex (yeah, great, super, really like it) is good when it comes along. It's like shitting, taking a shit is good when it's because you've eaten and digested it. When you start inserting fudge into your anus to just go shitting afterwards means you have a obsession or a lucrative video deal.

I mean, if you ever had sex in a relationship: kissing, dating, fondling around and 'loving' just doing 'boring' stuff you quickly understand why prostitution, even tough you really like sex, is shamefull.
Sex is good, like taking a pee after 4 beers, but if you want to go pee without drinking anything: You have an obsession.

>Just try to jerk only on sunday morning and not to porn, to realize within a month, that there is so much more to enjoy that just the sex.

Come to my home, I will consume you

Philosophy if you want to live in a trailer and teach community college

>I try to be nice on Veeky Forums, at least sometimes, but even if I just earnestly answer to posts, I just get called a soyboy cuck faggot because I don't fill any meme requirements that some fat fuckin' neckbeard decided was "alpha" that fucking minute.

This is funny.

Take philosophy as a minor if you can't double major; it's a great background for critical thinking and analysis, while Economics will actually get you a job.
Everyone says that, but I think they're just awestruck at the size and scope of philosophy. I'm a brainlet and even I was able to graduate with philosophy as my major.
It all really depends on what you want out of university. Do you want a fun four years thinking about the nature of the universe, or do want to buckle down, intern and work out the ass, so you have a career that isn't in food service once you graduate? Philosophy can do both but not without focus.

There's nothing stopping any of you from taking philosophy as a minor, or even going to a CC to get a few preliminaries under your belt.

i think i'll take a semester of economics to see how hard it is, then either double major or minor in phil. the minors at my uni are really small though, only like 15 ects

Take a writing course as well, maybe two if you have the funds and the time. It will help you write better papers, trust me.

i accidentally used meme arrows when texting with this qt now she's confused what do i do anons

The evolutionary / sociological agent in moral behavior promotes kindness, which is a part of the moral body, but it does compose it entirely. Its a logical mishap to say that, because we have social incentives to be kind that therefore morality is based in that relativistic structure. The question of virtue, transcendentalism, and justice remain, arguably, inadequately explained by social and evolutionary reasoning alone.

Hope that's a good white pill, user.

My fucking biscuit just broke and fell into my tea. This is the second day in a row this has happened.

explain it to her (not Veeky Forums, just the textual meaning). With luck you'll have a qt gf that uses meme arrows

I always thought I was wasting my potential but now I realize I had no potential to waste.

>transhuman

I hate using the word redpilled but I 'm really angry that now that I've seen some shit I can't go back and just be joyful and young and just do dumb shit. I really envy my friend that I dno't talk to anymore who has no money, no job and is still in UNI (I dropped out) but he lives with his girl and they're in love and don't give a fuck about anything

I want that but now that I'm bitter I will never fall in love like this again. Seriously what is the point of living in a hellhole of responsibilities and misery

that's called growing up and being mature, not "redpilled"

I recently listened to Coolio's hit single "Gangsta's Paradise". While listening to the single, I interpreted that the eponymous paradise Coolio describes is entirely ironic. But I couldn't help but wonder if a gangsta's paradise does exist and what would it look like? Is it watched over by dead gangsta rappers like Tupac or Biggie that act as Gangsta Gods? Is there a Gangsta's Hell? If so, what actions and morals should a man have to ascend or descend to gangsta heaven or hell after death?

this was a major philosophical debate among rappers during the 90s, look into tupac's inquiries "if heaven got a ghetto" for further reading

Economics because philosophy isn't developed through a fucking university course but through experiences in your life

Wrong. That's the defeatist inside you desperately begging you not to feel bad about your failures "because it's not your fault you are that way."
You could be doing good shit right the fuck now, and I hope you feel like shit for not doing so, on top of realizing that this "personality" of yours stopping you from taking action is an excuse that could be wiped out by some chance encounter or random incident literally any day. Now whether you go out looking for that magical moment is up to you, but know that regarding your laziness not to do so the exact same principle applies, except one meta step outwards.
Now there's an easy method to (eventually) escape that cycle anyways, and that's by putting your everything into doing whatever you feel like doing. When your procrastinate, procrastinate with passion and progress will be inevitable.

You realize him and his girl are the useful idiots, yea? It might be miserable for you but it's less miserable than the endgame useful idiots will allow to proliferate right under their noses.

thanks

>I wake up in the mornin' and I ask myself

still the best to ever do it

Honestly the sadest thing I have read on this board. The best thing I ever did for myself is sell all my video games and consoles. I used the money to pay for 5 years of gym membership, nice clothes and books.

I feel like I should be more mature than I am currently. I'm smart enough to get into a very good college but I haven't had a job once in my life. I still enjoy things that I shouldn't as a college student and I just feel like 2 different people live inside of me, not like dr.jackle and mr.hyde but a responsible adult who reads in his free time and wants a future and a neet teenager who plays video games, drinks garbage and just wants to get laid

Fucking this, I don't think video games are inherently bad (though they're a waste of time), but they're *highly* addictive, especially if you're depressed or lonely. There was a thread over on lebbit the other day about that some regulatory body was adding video game addiction as a diagnosable mental illness and the comments were *filled* with people denying that it was real, saying that video games are harmless, that it's normal to revolve your life around league of legends, etc. It was really sad to read.

Mispacing a letter is far better than an internally inconsistent post... just throwing that out there.

i see similar stuff in every nytimes article that talks about banning prescription opioids, you get a dozens nutters on there like "no no no! u can't take away my pills! i NEED them for my PAIN!" its like yeah u might have a problem ok

the problem is Veeky Forums is also highly addictive

If you're going into college now, understand its a trans-formative experience. I was still very immature when I was 18 and just starting, and I even had a job. Also, learn to enjoy times when you can lack maturity, as long as that doesn't involve becoming a total drop out.

Video games are addictive in the same way weed is addictive, some people get hooked on the recreational and irresponsible aspects. You've got to be able to limit your time wasting time.

Any form of entertainement can be addictive wether it is videogames, movies or books.

Hermits and socially inept individuals aren't new.

However, can video games be more potent? Quite possibly.

Tfw you find something unironically interesting in a Veeky Forums post that got de-railed.

Thanks random friends.

You don't have to abandon one to get the other.

You have to be organized.
