i keep wondering if all fiction could be unhealthy for the brain. human life is so short, a day has so few hours. how can you take one or more of these hours and flee to a place that doesn't exist and disconnect from your own reality.

places that don't exist have begun to repell me. my own reality has so many projects i would like to attend to that i feel gridlocked by not knowing what to do first. desire for fiction might be nothing but pure idleness.

i assume i understand the impulse, though i could be mistaken. when i was a child and were forced to attend child prison (school), the idea of no longer being able to explore the world at my own pace and instead had to spend time with the violent conformist was completely depressing. have them judge my intelligence based on how hard i could force myself to care what they thought was important in their desperate attempt to turn me into a mindless soldier and stomp all my dreams and interests in the process.

i'd flee into video games and at least videogames are interactive. in a video game i can make decisions, in school i was but an inmate without agency. but in a movie about a super hero, there is no interaction, the poor fool who watches this is but the passive recipient of centralized propaganda. i don't see how someone would accept this premise and spend time on this.

when someone watches fiction, then you have to initialize variables in your braincode for the fictional people, fictional places and so on. that's filling your brain with things that aren't real. imagine you watch 10 shows and 30 movies in a year. after that your brain is filled with fake people and fake places. if i as a hermit did that, i would slowly fill my brain with fake people but not with real people and the fakeness would slowly take over my brain. my brain would just be a receptor for things that don't exist.

imagine the trajectory long term: every year that passes my brain would initialize 100 new people and 100 new places while i only 10 real people and 10 real places. that would mean the artificial in my brain would grow at 10 times the speed, every year fake stuff would dangerously outgrow real stuff:

year 1: 200fake 20real
year 2: 400fake 40real
year 3: 600fake 60real
year 4: 800fake 80real
.
.
.
year 10: 2000fake 200real
.
.
.
year 30: 6000fake 600 real


i imagine a brain that is 90% occupied by stuff that doesn't exist and only a tiny corner 10% of the brain left for reality.

>yes I need entertainment, without entertainment life is boring.
you are being too dramatic, a need is something life can't go on without. you would never bore yourself to death so that's nonsense what you are talking. i genuinely believe the conventional opinion on boredom is spot on: when you are bored, you are not spending your time wisely. if you were, you'd be so busy you would hardly ever feel bored. personally i have discovered what i believe to be the answer to boredom which is a system that connects different parts of my brain at different times and different moods. to describe it as simply as i can: i have a good way of making notes of things i find interesting and then when i am bored, i press one button and one of these notes pops up on my screen. that's the answer to boredom, not watching lord of the rings.

>>like living in a place with very few people, have you tried that?

>I'm perfectly fine in my room where there are no other people.
well i dont wanna end up like you so i am still gonna try it though i feel kinship to you with disdain for other people.

>no I dont miss out on anything,

do you even astral travel and meditate? because that is the only way i see to not miss out, other then that you are missing out. i was in africa this year and encountered wild monkeys who survived in a city and now my city feels like inferior trash. though the squirrels (what i believe to be the closest things to monkeys i have) tried their best to cheer me up. animals don't treat me as bad as they treat the other people, they can sense i am closer to them then to the normie humans.

>>even a bad real life is better then a virtual life

>absolutely not
i'm real, it is way better to talk to me then to talk to a bot. people love it to talk to me, they wanna tell me all kinds of shit and come up with all kinds of evil ways to trick me into forced conversations. that's proof. checkmate atheist!

>>there are ways to make reality less hellish

>why would you want to know shit about "real" people? boring.

you know what, you got me there, i wouldn't. i think people are completely boring but part of that is because they are so eerily similar to each other which i ascribe to them being subject to the exact same education and entertainment. i'd love to know interesting people but normal people of course not, i consider that a torture.

>>and only a tiny corner 10% of the brain left for reality.

>question is how to reduce this further.
i roll my eyes in disdain. if you are in any position to make choices and you choose fiction over reality, the freedom of choice is wasted on you. choice i believe to be the biggest thing most people here on dep leave on the table unexamined. you could choose your way out of any shit and i don't mean ending your life prematurely, human life is already short.

I'm very depressed and I will also develop chaos in my mind so I don't care about everyone anymore and I will destroy everything why should I be a fool who can only blame myself while others can be happy without being able to feel how crazy this world is I will destroy everything and if this world ends and everything is destroyed then I will be a living witness that I am the one who knows how cruel this world is and how unfair all of this is everyone everything everything must have an end if it doesn't end then I will always be in hell or at least be locked up as rotting flesh

labels dont help, they hinder. they are used by people to dismiss the problem and abandon responsibility, which likely is the only path to healing. you don't have depression, you have something way more specific, personal and complicated. when you call it depression, you let yourself be seduced by the diagnostic language; it's often hollow promises and the undignified preemptive certainty they hide behind. i say do the oposite: describe your condition as crude, unhinged, precise and accessible to others as you can. your name about your condition should be so easy to understand that when you tell it to someone who has no idea about it, understands it the first time you mention it without having to ask fir details.

"i thought i had to fart the other day but i actually shat my pants with liquid shit a little" now that's how i talk about my most recenr condition, without shame! not using this ridiculous gatekept medical language.

>so i have a very specific, personal kind or depression, that is actually a bit comorbid with my overall inclination to being anxious?

i can never know what you have because i can't feel what you feel so what could my opinion possibly be worth. nothing. i can look at your approach though. when you tell me with your chest sticking out all proud and identified: "i have depression!" then i don't know how that feels like, that tells me nothing. the term is like a shotgun and hits everything, you want something that only hits what you actually have precisely. you know the term is too much of a blanket term to be useful by the fact that you would receive 100 different answers if you asked 100 depressed people about their condition and not the same answer 100 times.

calling it comorbid and anxiety is at least a step in the right direction but you are once again committing what i in my pieced-together understanding of mental health believe to be a mistake: you just repeat medical labels as if they meant anything. what i believe to be way better would be to invent/sculpt/compose/craft/sketch a way to describe what is actually going on so that when a kid in the park asks you what is wrong with you, you could tell it in a way that makes sense to the kid and then the kid in the park might have a way better idea on what to do about it then any doctor ever because the kid did not have it's humanity pranked, whipped and tortured out of it in medschool.

most importantly though, bothering to be precise about it will give you better ideas on what to try to make things better and the most healing the most helping will be what you do to yourself, not what will be done onto you by others. don't wait to be rescued, nobody is coming, you do the rescuing.

I came to the conclusion that the main flaw of the mental health system is its tendency to suck you in and once you are affiliated with it it's very hard to become independent of it be it medically or in a symbolic/ linguistic way as their methods of producing acceptable self narratives are probably much stronger than most advertisement measures. Like, you are in a bad condition mentally and you don't know what to do and you feel like you can't overcome this condition yourself and you also don't know much about this stuff (maybe some theory but the personal experience is unknown to you) and you don't seem to find much help online and they recommend if you are seriously feeling bad then go meet a professional - that's when they have you. And then the whole mental health journey begins. And it seems really convincing at first, someone is there for you to listen, someone you ascribed competence and the ability to cure your condition. But after some time you'll realise that's not how it works, because change only can come from within and by changing your life conditions, but not by the mental health system at all, at best they might with a low probability help to give some input which might put you on the right track but it's actually dependent on a myriad factors from social life to upbringing family nation income etc etc and it's actually a miracle if mental health system works it almost exclusively implies that your surrounding environment is already very stable. But then you are already sucked in and you adopt the mind set that you can't do anything by yourself without external help, and further more you kind of forget what actually caused your condition and your in for decades of wondering what's wrong with you accepting the illness mind set. While in fact maybe you were just missing a car or 100 000 dollars which would cure you immediately, but mental health system would never give you 100 000 dollars not even a dime but they earn 100000 with you the longer you keep coming back to them the better.

>but what if you genuinely need help?
>who can help?
You are your only help. The entire idea of "I need someone's help to not feel sad" is a carryover from when you were a small child. As an adult man you're the only one who can make yourself feel better. No psychiatrists, therapists, or rent-a-mommy can do you any good. Only finding out why you're feeling so low and working towards rectifying it is going to help.

>the one system intended to stop your mental suffering

It's not. These systems are intended to keep you pacified so you don't go out and kill other people as a coping mechanism for feeling bad. Drugs and psuedo-psychotherapy fulfill that duty, so there's no need or want for the workers in this system to put in any care towards your mental state beyond just giving you those bare minimums.

Looks similar to my favorite plushie and a friend. His state was deteriorating, my mother promised to put him to our cellar under the apartment building for storage. She throwed him to the garbage without telling me instead. Like a lot of things she did or tried to do.

I found this one online but the mug of mine was slightly different and cuter, I think. Colors, design, shale is about 98% identical. I found it through Google reverse image search after putting an image of a physical photo. Who knew in 2000 that such technologies would exist!

A slightly unusual hobby for a wizardly man, but I've always had an attraction to it.

What I like about it is the extremely large variety of tricks that can be learned. It's like the Path of Exile skill tree in the sense you can pick a direction and learn that way. You can build up your foundations, or you can go the straight and narrow all the way to learning your favorite trick. The large variety of tricks also mean there are a ton of easier ones to learn, and learning these tricks provides such a strong feeling of accomplishment.

Cruising is very nice too, I intent to get a bigger old school board with soft(?) wheels for nice and easy transport.

The art on skateboards is also quite nice, there's something for everyone. Also you can buy blanks and draw on it yourself. I think the level of creativity in all aspects of this hobby is so amazing.

All things skating related welcomed, I'll try my best to answer with great care to everyone.

Thank you for participating

skating has a lot of physical benefits that i had no idea about. had i known the positive impact it would have had, i would have done it in my 20s when i was busy doing dumb shit like going to university or working.

fun fact: after skating for a year or two, when you lose your balance while skating and are about to fall, time literally slows down so you can make a good decision in slow-motion and find out how to fall down in the exact way that hurts you the least.

it attracts a lot of unwanted female attention though so that could be a reason for wizards to be careful with it. while being on the skates i can outmaneuver everyone so it is both difficult to come near me and i can change direction way better then any female on foot. it does give my motions off the skates a certain elegance/grace/experience/refinement/maturity so just when i walk down the street unfortunately females are attracted the same way they would be to an experienced dancer.

it does feel amazing though when i just get to skate without females stalking me or an audience forming or photographers being cancerous. with all the unwanted attention i am getting i keep wondering why those people who want to stare don't live themselves a little instead of wanting to watch the other people live a life…

Games you played that were not as good as the mainstream masses/reviewers would had you believe.
Also games that were recommended by "patricians", that turned out to just be games that cater to their autistic taste.

While I didn't find the gameplay or aesthetic of borderlands bad. The writing is so god damn cringy, it's like a boomer trying to write something he thinks modern teens like. After 2 hour I just couldn't stand it anymore. Gearbox were veterans and they had the backing of 2K a major publisher, this was the best writer they could get?
The deigns of banished isn't bad. It just that it felt like doing homework instead of playing a fun game. Many hours of planning, trail and error. Only an autist could think about spending the weekend for this.

I was never really on board with open world games because of what you've described.

attached is a game that is UNDERrated, but its open world done right. A lot of games like shoving a morality system, but this is one of the few games left that encourages you to act like an asshole, which I think is essential if you want to truly enjoy an open world game. Otherwise avoiding civilian casualties just makes the game tedious and frustrating.

>The world was beautiful and exploring was the only fun part of the game
tends to be the trade off for open world games. Focus too much on making the world "alive and beautiful", how it will serve the gameplay is secondary.

Stopped playing after black ops. Literally the same concepts since the first game. Just more "cinematic" and better graphics. No idea why the normies still love these games so much.

Finally watched Alien: Romulus. But before watching it, I went back and watched all the Alien movies. I'm a huge fan of the original and can pretty much quote the entire thing from memory. It took me a week to watch them all. Here are my unsolicited opinions on each.

Alien (1979) — Almost a perfect horror film imo. The plot is nothing to write home about, but the set design, the alien design, and the atmosphere are perfect. It's one of the most hauntingly beautiful labyrinths to ever grace the silver screen. The amount of detail in every inch of the Nostromo and LV-426 is amazing. The idea of having blue-collar characters made the whole thing work. One of my favorite movies of all time.

Aliens (1986) — A generally fun, competently made, but ultimately dumb blockbuster movie. Compared to the original, it's a downgrade on every level. The characters are flat, samey, and uninteresting. Obvious bad guy doing bad guy things. The design of the ship and interiors is functional, but not nearly as beautiful or interesting as in the first movie. It's not a bad movie, but it pales in comparison to the original. The "perfect organism" is also shown to be completely pathetic, stupid, squishy things.

Alien 3 (1992) — If Aliens is a competently made movie with boring ideas, Alien 3 is a movie with some good ideas but clunky execution. The characters are interesting for the most part, and the dialogue is way better compared to the second movie, but it's mostly the formula of the first movie: a monster killing the cast one by one while everybody else runs around inside a sci-fi labyrinth in despair. It doesn't really add anything to the universe either. Still, it has some cool ideas in there.

Alien Resurrection (1997) — Awful, shitty characters that have nothing interesting to say. Ripley is basically a new character played by the same actor, and the new character is shit. It's full of goofy moments and idiotic plot points that make no sense. The special effects and set design are mostly OK, but the dialogue and plot are garbage. Characters have to constantly drop exposition dumps just to make sense of whatever is going on. The only interesting character in there is Gediman. They really drove Ripley into a corner with this one. No wonder they pretty much dropped the whole thing and started making movies set in other points of the timeline.Post too long.

I try and try like I really do to be a wizard but unfortunately keep heading into becoming a crab. As someone who can't afford to NEET and will just die on the side of the street if I do so, I have to unfortunately go out into the real world and try to get a job and maintain a "social life".

And that is the worst part about it, I simply don't get it, a friend of mine wanted to meet another friend and he wanted me to go to club with me, now why did I agree? Because I wanted a referral for a job. Apart from that clubs in my country are horrendous for sub-3 men like me because they don't let people like me enter because of "dress code" when in reality you look ugly, short, singly, and the whole nine yards.

I got a referral so that's a good thing if it materialises into a job. But what I saw in club is not something that I have not known but to see it happen it still caught me like a deer in the headlights, basically I knew that this friend of friend is going to be a piece of shit because he is a club-goer.

But when I saw him literally just go up to a bitch and started making out with her continuously then going to the toiled and then coming back, and then actually showing me his Instagram and Snapchat about fucking a succubus 5 times one day, and fucking 10 different succubi in 10 days and sharing nudes on Telegram by starting out with the message "New Pussy around my Dick.".

God bless him for giving me the referral which probably won't materialise into a job but for some reason I wish I never met him, I saw a weird kind of primal expression on the faces of succubi, the man was 6'4 and had a chiseled face. And when I came back home I swear to god, I couldn't drive the car straight. Like I was about to crash 3 times, not because I was driving fast, but I was so pissed and my mind was just thinking about like what the fuck? I had to struggle for every single ounce of thing in life, and there are guys like this who just do what? Fucking exist?

Honestly, at that point years of thinking "I am never going to think about cunts" and months of trying to be a fucking monk only to enter a state of ragebait, I swear to god, when I returned in the night I was awake for a total of 48 hours just raging like a mad man and screaming into the damn mattress. Like what the fuck? How in the blue hell is it so easy for these kind of people? And this guy has cheated on every single cunt who was his GF. And has fucked over 40 succubi litePost too long.

Part of it is location, Americans especially were quick to kick kids out at 18. I was willing to work hard but had no desire to level up at work or be a community leader. My parents screwed up by kicking us all out of the house: they have a son that won't be hosting Christmas or thanksgiving feasts for the extended family because I don't believe in that lifestyle.

True, plus it's the time period and economic situation. What often times get touted as a "independence" or "growing up" is just being fortunate enough to live in a time and place where you actually have the opportunity to go off and live on your own (often times with a helping of the right family situation i.e. daddy hooking you up with a nice job, so you can actually afford to move out).
Sometimes I see people brag and look down at people who still live with their parents at an age that's not socially acceptable, and it always pisses me off because these "independent" people would have been in exactly the same situation had their lot in life been slightly different.

I'm soon to be 30 but I feel like I got stuck at 20yo. Part of it is certainly the covid years that were basically just limbo where nothing moved forward and I stayed inside only being enrolled in college without actually studying or taking exams. Now I'm starting trainee program that is meant for 16-17 year olds and I will be a decade older than almost all of them. I flunked out of college and it's impossible to get a job without any kind of certification so this is my only real option but it only reinforces this feeling of being weirdly out of sync. I have moments where I realize that my youth has passed a decade ago, notice signs of aging in my parents and I get scared for a bit. But mostly I'm honestly fine with the way I'm living. I'll be happy to work my basic job and play video games with the few friends I have left, living at home and spending time with my parents while they're still in good health.

Are there any wizards who are uncomfortable when there is a succubus? even around female family members. when there's men and succubi in the same room and I'm here, I try not to look at the succubus's body but my brain can't. it puts me in very uncomfortable situation for me and for other people around because I know they know and they know I know. whenever it happens, I want to kill myself. must be because I'm a virgin and a pervert. It kills me for real. I can feel the tense and feel the men/man of the group/family wanting to beat the shit out of me or talk and give hints. I wish I wasn't a pervert or a creep or a weirdo.
please help a wizard who's in big trouble. I wish to never exist, I'll say it again but it is really that: it fucking kills me inside so bad. I'm so scared

Are you actually autistic, though? You can’t resist looking at their bodies because your sexual attraction to them is just that powerful. Being driven by primitive instincts is a very normie-esque thing. Your wizard nature is just preventing you from having the necessary charisma and looks to act on these desires.

Uncomfortable yes but not in the way you are. I did have a similar thing for a while where I would avert my eyes from succubi out on the street because I had internalized the messaging that succubi think most men are ugly creeps and I didn't want to get in trouble. Nowadays I can look at passersby. Not staring or leering obviously just passing glances that happen more subconsciously than anything else, then looking at something else.
Interacting with succubi is a different story. Even though it's just cashiers, service workers or coworkers or whatever where there's a predetermined social script to follow I often get uneasy, especially when they're attractive. I wouldn't even say that I yearn for female companionship or anything but I guess it's just a biological instinct that reminds me I'm "failing at life" because of my lack of sex or contact with succubi outside of professional situations.

My taste might come off as really generic, but after reading grim manga for years I have come to enjoy light hearted shonem like kagurabachi and dandadan.

I firmly enjoyed the purity culture in dandadan, with emphasis it puts on virginity. It made me happy, many series would shy away from placing that moral weight. Kagura bachi was a nice experience, it's a shame it will never reach popularity demon slayer did, despite actually being decently written.

I enjoy dandadan because it has yokai and Shinto faith integrated in it quite well. I am neutral on sci fi element, but I have loved yokai stories since my childhood. Truly enjoyable.

i've seen a few wizards who don't seem healthy.

is too bad because being healthy is easy once you know what matters.
the practice of being healthy i have reduced to managing of habits:

you constantly manage your habits. you find out what they are by doing the opposite of being in autopilot. manual flight. then you imagine the long term consequences of each habit. then you decide if you want those, the development of a desired state. keep the desirable habits, reduce all those you don't want through constant attention on your habits.

as you do this you might stumble upon ways to improve upon the desirable habits. this is almost already doing the next thing, which is finding good new habits to practice and slowly wondering when you have time to do them.

it is up to you to be healthy, it is an option, you can make this happen if you so choose. health is one choice away.

last week i have only been eating watermelon, mostly juicing it. i can tell you exactly how many i ate. 7 days, 14 melons, 4,5kg each melon on average.

this week i am only eating grapes and since those grapes i am buying are not all that tasty (especially compared to ripe sweet watermelons) i am juicing them. i am on day 3 of the grape juice fast and despite having so much energy that i found it difficult to sleep, there is nothing to complain.

i find it easy to concentrate on stuff, i am barely wasting any time on stupid entertainment/doomscrolling/videogames/lurking, i am making progress on the things that are important to me, the summer heat is very easy and pleasant to endure and not a chore, i find it easy to go exercise, when meditating i find it very easy to establish nervous system connection, my breathing is better, my sinuses are moist despite the dry air, i can hear better then usual, my sense of smell is improved, i can smell what my neighbors are cooking even when their doors and windows are closed. i emptied an expired jar of peanutputter into my trash and the smell is very noticable to me despite being weak. i have done this so many times that i no longer have cravings for food but i do look forwards to eating cucumber and bell pepper that i dip into a paste i make myself in the blender from seeds, orange, herbs, spices and onion.

>is this sustainable

-depends what you are looking at
–eating only fruit: yes without a doubt, the longest streak where i have not eaten a single thing that wasn't a fruit was around 3 months. the body gets used to it, cravings subside as the loud microbiome in the gut gets starved of other food. requires eating big portions which might be unusual but not difficult, it is easy when bowel-transit time is high.
–not even eating fruit but just drinking fresh fruit juice: yes but it requires quite a lot of juice. possible but more difficult. when 4-8 liters (which is not necessarily pure juice, i like to do 40% water + 60 % juice) are drunk every day, then the body gets enough calories as to not lose weight or muscles, legend tells.

>without losing weight and muscles?


i have always had a bad way of organizing it and and then getting busy and letting it slack a little and then not consuming enough for a few days, so i have always done with losing muscles and weight but i don't worry about muscle loss in the slightest because i am not vain. my muscles function all day, i am active, i haul stuff, i build stuff, i skate, i dance, i run, i do study, i do research, i travel so i don't mind my body and muscles getting thin in the summer. it is annoying in the winter when living in a cold region because i don't like to put on as many layers of clothing as i should, fruit cools the body a lot, which is why i believe humans originate from very warm climates and have no business living in the cold.

>where do you get all the nutrients, proteins, calcium, omega fats, b12 vitamin, etc…?


-when it gets colder i do eat raw vegetables, nuts, seeds, herbs and spices and if you saw me irl or saw me skate, you would not consider me malnourished even though i have been doing this for almost 10 years.
–proteins are a beliefsystem and i don't believe in it, the stuff i eat has plenty of amino acids, which is the stuff that the body has to extract all complicatedly from proteins. proteins are just zip files for amino acids and i eat those directly. if i want to shut up someone who believes in protein a little too much, i ask him how much protein is in mothers milk. because if protein was important, mothers milk wouPost too long.

in a few hours my second week (well 6.5 days to be precise) of a loose juice fast is over. i only drank fresh grape juice with a small amount of lemons, oranges and grapefruit. i ate nothing with the exception of maybe 500g of grapes once every other day because i wasn't near my juicer at all times, ideally i wouldn't have even eaten that but i did it perfectly so many times, i don't sweat small imperfections like that anymore. the juice is precise manual fueling and then when the juice doesn't come, my body gets tired so i rather just eat a few then feel too tired to do much of anything.

>>325464
>is this sustainable

i still have my doubts about it because this time i did feel tiredness throughout the day that i normally don't have, because i tried to have more of a normal life and have the fasting just happen in the background. i guess when i say this is sustainable when i have the freedom to devote most of my day to making sure i am staying on top of the fast but if i had a fast-paced life where i had to respond to shit immedeatly, this might be different. or maybe i should just incrase my efforts of manifesting a mobile juicer already, like i have been wanting for a while. juicers are tricky though. i am on my third juicer and i like it but it was a cheap one and i wish it was more quiet… because i use it so much.

anyways it was exactly 19kg of grapes and about 18 grapefruits, 12 oranges and 12 lemons. i did not have cravings for food but i could smell what the neighbors were cooking very intensely. when someone would fry something i could smell that when usually i never do.

It's almost impossible to have a destroyed reputation in today's world. People are too damn distracted to keep track of everyone's scandals. Just move somewhere else and people who know whatever you're worried about won't know. Only way that doesn't work is if you're famous, and if you're famous you don't need to worry about reputation even more. Famous people can get away with so much shit and people will still worship them. You just can't also be ugly or else you end up getting harvey winesteined.

social status is an illusory game. you are somewhat pre-programmed to mind being considered of lower social status but the world in which this cultural system made sense has not been existing for hundreds/thousands of years. this is industrial mass consumerist cattle dystopia and you don't have to mind being unpopular or lonely because those states merely represent the opinions of fools and your only concern should be not to be one of the fools. if you ever felt being popular and in high demand, you'd hate it so much that you would not lament the absence of it. most people don't know how lucky they are never to have been popular because it would invalidate their entire social framework. they would hate it so much, they'd wonder why they ever cared about anyone if this is what results from it.

Any ideas on how to commit suicide by hanging? I wonder what sort of rope, knot, techique and place would be the best. I heard that with a good arrangement you can snap your neck and die painlessly, but honestly since it seems to involve so much technique I tend to think that just regular hanging could be better. I'm only afraid of fucking that up too and ending up as a veggie or suffocating for two hours before passing out.

I have experience in this. I've successfully killed myself several times via hanging. You need to read "The Peaceful Blackpill Handbook", "The Art of Not Living", and "Fun With A Razorblade by Big Gay Andrew Loomis". Once you do that you can ask ChatGPT for the best rope and height configuration for your IQ. Then you'll need to apply for a suicide license and pray to g*d that your therapist hasn't told your psychiatrist anything that would suggest you're only suicidal for a reason that SSRIs could instead cure. There is 0% chance the Demiurge will let you die if you don't hang yourself exactly as prescribed. You'll end up as a vegetable, or worse, a fruit.

Does anyone here have tinnitus? This might be what convinces me to end it. I can't even focus on my thoughts. It feels like I have lost an entire section of my brain. I can't sleep.

The older I get, the narrower my taste in games becomes. It isn't for lack of trying, either. I constantly download new shit, but nothing ever sticks. I've come to the conclusion that there is an incredibly small handful of games actually worth playing and almost all of them are made by Nintendo, Blizzard, id Software or Capcom. If I had to name a few in no particular order:
>Diablo 2
>StarCraft
>WarCraft 3
>Ocarina of Time
>Resident Evil 4
>DOOM
>Quake 3
All of these games are 10/10 solid gold classics with endless gameplay and lively communities. Playing anything else just feels like buying store brand, what are your eternally playable games?

I just don't see it, usually competitive online players obsess over a single game, even finding someone who actively plays something like LoL AND Dota 2 regularly is harder than you might think, let alone Starcraft/Warcraft and a totally different genre like Quake. Personally I think it just comes down to the fact that eventually the competition is what drives you, and you'll get better faster by focusing on one single game. Realistically I don't think loading up your 20,000th game of CSGO is "fun" in a normal sense, but testing your skills and getting better than others might still be fresh and exciting.
