i finally found a way to manage dealing with the flood of information of this age and be able to focus on things, which felt almost impossible to me. it is a simple system of textfiles. when something interests me i press a hotkey, simple script runs, which is the fastest way for it to get a textfile. then when i am bored i press another hotkey and one random of these textfiles from the main folder opens. why random? because it is faster then trying to decide when i don't have a plan. i tried systems of priority and accounting for available time, it sucked and slowed down the flow. when a random file gets opened, i write one entry with the current date (hotkeyed). i do this dozens if times per day. i noticed that this uses more of my brain, the conscious AND the unconscious because i get stray ideas throughout the day about files i just glanced at for a few seconds. i never try to solve a file, i only care about the next step, which eliminates most of my stupid habits of procrastination, overwhelm, gridlock, perfectionism, overplanning and more. when i feel a file is done, i move it into the discardfolder via another hotkey and a celebration video or audio plays randomly from the celebrationfilesfolder. i wish i had this all my life.

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.

good health to all hermits and neets, may all of you find the male strength inside you so you can live your dreams.

>now i still feel somewhat dumb and unable to wield this much energy

this is no longer true, after many years of failure and less then 2 years of trial and error i found so many little things i can do to make the most of my time that i feel no longer overwhelmed by it. whenever i would do things, i would run into the same bottlenecks and dead-ends and i finally took the time NOT TO BE FRUSTRATED AND ANNOYED BY IT but instead investigate each i could perceive (so far) and build it into an approach of doing lots of things at once so that i can spend this much energy when that time of summer heat, exposure to sunlight and juice fasting hits where i have infinite energy and but no idea what to do next. i wish i knew how to do this when i was younger.

is this sustainable without losing weight and muscles? where do you get all the nutrients, proteins, calcium, omega fats, b12 vitamin, etc…?

>>325464
>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.

Wagies when they get a 1 buck raise

I haven't had access to my main PC (almost made homeless and it is now in a storage unit lol) and I miss having adblock, even had that extension on Firefox that skips ad-reads too.

Ads really do just shit all in your mind. At least before, ad breaks were considered in television, now it constantly breaks the emotional immersion. If I am doomed to only feel while watching shit, it'd be really nice if that was still sacred.

Anyone watching the solar eclipse today? NASA will stream it.

>>325453
It will be visible where I live, but I'm not interested, I only found out about it from local internet forums. I'm glad it's happening if it means the summer heat will go away for a few minutes.

>>325453
Are eclipses localized or something? I've never seen an eclipse my whole life despite seeing news reporting it many times.

>>325455
They are, but people in every continent can experience a solar eclipse, but not every part of every continent sees every eclipse, so you have to look up when one is going to be visible where you live.

The Recent Popularization of Wizdom and how a Wiz can survive such dark times.

By Anon the Doomer (Random name of a wizchan user 6 August 2026)


We are living in a gynocracy. This is the thesis has been widely discussed in online circles for a long time. However the recent popularization of crab culture, especially memes about hypergamy in jewgram reels and twitter, has seen normies adopting and romanticizing facets of crab and BP culture.


While many online voices approved what seems to be a wider acknowledgment by the normien1gger public of the BP, one must be cautious that a closer look at these voices would reveal that they are likely to be "enlightened" normies themselves. This suggest either of the two:
1. They have never experienced the bitter experience that develop the philosophy of BP, and thus these ideas aren't their own since they never have the need to cope.
2. They are grifting and take from BP culture to generate financial and social benefits for themselves.


A brief read on wizchan reveals that this recent upsurge of popularity of their culture is not received with enthusiasm nor acknowledged. The general mood on the phenomenon is grim: We are seeing the gentrification of wiz culture.

We have seen how gentrification of various culture and subculture, previously a space for wiz and crabs to thrive, being invaded by succubi and normien1ggers, and how these communities died.

While we are facing the same prospects, one must remember that the nature of true wizdom meant that it is inherently individualistic. Communities, when such exists, serves as outlet and dopamine source echo chambers. A wiz can get good advice and information from these communities that serves to further elucidate his experience, ultimately however, a wiz become a wiz due to his own experience.

Do not deceive yourself. Whatever prevailing views take place in a community, you must be wakeful to not adopt this views subconsciously, let alone consciously. Such practice belongs to the unwashed feminine, a lower existence, not to the aristocratic wiz.

i write a lot like that and it invigorates me and helps me distribute my time wisely on the things and people i care about. writing to me feels like doomscrolling but only with things that are positive and interesting to me. like granny in front of a slot machine i do it to enjoyably pass the time when i am uninspired. it feels like a scaffolding which i use to climb from thing to thing throughout the day, helping me to make good use of the short human life and (g)row enjoyably on my own stream of content consisting of nothing but the things i believe deserve my attention. no bloat, no spam, no advertisement, no propaganda, no psyops, no degeneracy, just puzzled stares of people who wonder why this man as unkempt as someone who is genuinely homeless can type so fast. it is both peak adult discipline and pure childlike exploration. based on that i am expecting that you are probably experience your capabilities growing.

Its called "prole drift"

the erosion of the middle class is tossing mid/low tier normies into working class excess maledom where they are more receptive to these ideas.

grifters know that harping on these ideas will bear fruit because their is now a large audience that is psychologically primed to recieve and internalize BP ideas, whereas, say, in the 2010s, mid-tier succubi were democratized through unique and real-world social subcultures and individuals so that even band geeks got to bang band geek succubi, goths, jocks, scene/emo etc. everyone had a mate.

now that social media has destroyed that and made a horrific monoculture, where succubi can swipe endlessly on a globalized pool of men, crabdom, virginity, and poverty are more commonplace. These are ripe times for the distribution of BP propaganda, even through a contrived, normie lens like clavicular

>now that social media has destroyed that and made a horrific monoculture, where succubi can swipe endlessly on a globalized pool of men, crabdom, virginity, and poverty are more commonplace.

it is easier then ever to meet them, i am surrounded by unwanted succubi that no man will ever want. males can live without females easily but females depend on males, as they are collectively about to learn as soon as science stops being blind to gender differences and the first studies will come out that will confirm the female idiots what is already obvious for everyone with eyes to see.

how'd you know, you did not even know what inflation was, meanwhile the boss of your boss of your boss of your boss of your boss of your boss is ruining your life with it. i guess you don't mind as long as there is beer and wrestling.

this seems like a growth that far outpaces any inflation but then again, monopolies don't have budget restriction like every fair/honorable/competitive company that is not owned by billionaires for a plethora of reasons different from the ones that are obvious to the clueless surface people involved, the bunker people have defacto infinite resources. to compare this with an actual company that is subject to markets and the economy with real competition owned by non-cannibals might me ridiculously short-sighted and unrealistic.

i ran your retardation through chatgpt for a bit of refinement

>If attention functions as a currency in the monetized internet, then it is being exchanged within a monetary system whose nominal unit—money—is inherently inflationary. But attention itself is not obviously inflationary in the same way. A person has a finite amount of time and, therefore, a finite lifetime supply of attention.
easier to understand

>This creates a tension: the internet continually produces more things competing for attention, while each individual’s total supply of attention remains strictly bounded. In that sense, attention may actually become deflationary at the level of an individual life.
i wholeheartedly disagree with this

as attention is more aggressively sought after, given people's finite capacity for it, more people will turn away/inward and stop paying attention to anything except what they've decided to psychologically silo as important.

>As time passes, the amount of attention a person has remaining decreases, potentially making each remaining unit more valuable.
again, completely disagree with this retarded premise concocted by the Gippity
Youth and beauty are instrumental in driving attention. Old people, especially single men after the age of 35, are economically irrelevant.

I would only argue a persons attention is deflationary the more valuable that person is economically, whether its wealth, connections, fame, status, ie something to offer you in increasingly exponential amounts.

so you are not inexperienced, lazy and unable to think, you are a refined scholar because you use the the solution finder for dummies that the tech-cannibals made that creates a file about you based on everything you admit to it you don't understand and sells that file to the highest bidder.

I found a Linux OS that is based off of Serial Experiments Lain. https://lainos.net/ It looks cool, but for me it's a bit of a pain to work the UI. I was able to snag all the wallpapers and use them for my setup though.

A Jeff Hardy Swanton Table someone made…

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!

there was a lain-themed window manager (based on blackbox) like 20-something years ago, older than me, I remember fixing it to work with modern linux during covid but I threw away the code because… I don't remember, but it was an in-between the copland aesthetic and the DE that her father is seen using in one of the episodes

lately I have been having this feeling of nostalgia (laziness maybe?) I have been reading computer science papers from the 80s and 90s and things back then seem easier than they're now. like, you find phd theses that would be considered sophomoric these days

>I already suffer from hearing voices so I can't try it.
why do they make you suffer, is it because they insult your hair? probably.

>But even if I could, I don't think I would, the one stoner I knew complained about weed making him dumb and forgetful all the time.

how often did he do it. there is no need to become one of the people who when they try something and they like it, they make it their everything and build an identity around it.

you know you can smoke a tiny doobert smaller then a cigarette once a month, sit on your bed and meditate or walk through nature and not have it negatively impact you.

if you do it more often then once a month i wouldn't smoke it because the smoke is horrible for your health even if you inhale through a filter with the utmost care and gentleness. (i tried). rather bake some weed in the oven gently and then gently simmer it inside a pan of coconut oil for 3 hours so you can just eat a spoon of the oil instead of smoking it.

Smoking weed, daily, is very bad for you, now if you smoke ocasionally there isn't much problem. Point is: avoid becoming a pot head because makes you literally retarded on the long run.

>>323636
The voices are extremely unpleasant and I already hallucinate stuff sometimes. It's well known among schizophrenics weed makes this dramatically worse.
The stoner didn't really build an identity around it but hearing his complaints really convinced me this isn't a fun drug

>>323642
There's no convincing evidence showing a casual relationship between weed and long term IQ/cognitive decline. If you use weed heavily you'll be slower but it reverses with abstinence, similar to getting rest after chronic sleep deprivation. Studies showing IQ loss are confounded by those who use weed also being more likely to be cognitively impaired or low SES to begin with.

>>323859
>The voices are extremely unpleasant and I already hallucinate stuff sometimes.

what if those are unconscious parts of you who are trying to reach you through your stubbornness and group-allegiance to save you from perpetuating a mistake? because that is what weed usually does to people. weed tries to get you to be less of a phony and make you question your narratives. but if you are so far gone that you accepted the narratives and they become load-bearing part of the personality you have chosen to identify with, you might be too far gone.

what else is the subconscious supposed to do to reach someone ignorant and stupid who is being tricked? how to shake someone who is being tricked when everyone around is in on the con and affirm his tricked personality…

>It's well known among schizophrenics weed makes this dramatically worse.

why you are people schizophrenics though? there is no need for that. i don't think people become schizophrenics because of genetics, bad lack or pure outside influence. people become schizophrenics the same way they forget to bring a jacket in the autumn, because they are stupid and they make mistakes. and while anyone can make a mistakes, people who are willing to learn only make mistakes once or twice.

>The stoner didn't really build an identity around it but hearing his complaints really convinced me this isn't a fun drug

it's a fun drug for people who are surrounded by idiots and need a break from all the evil and degeneracy. it's not fun for the idiots who make the lives of others hell because weed tries to be like "hey, yeah you, what are you doing? this isn't fun, would you like when someone did this to you?" and the idiot is like "SHUT THE FUCK UP WITH YOUR RACISM AGAINST ME!".

I don't think I've ever had an energy drink, one of my science teachers used to say that it messes with the metabolism so I just avoided them

Look, caffeine only gives you a short time boost continued by hours of being unable to sleep.
You should try blasting music before sleep (shower radio/mp3 device or anything similar) to keep showering yourself before going to sleep.

Going out for a run in the morning is much better than a dumb energy drink. It gives you energy for the whole day

>>325397
thas rite! when i exercise i have to do it early in the day because when i do it in the afternoon or evening, i am pulsating with energy like a lightningbolt and i can't sleep. when i do it early, the whole day gets more inspired and i use my energy better and 9/10 times i sleep good.

how does not having energy feel like? i'm not weak of will like you itt so i only eat the healthiest food i can find and then once every few months i go to a restaurant where i eat the least of the evil they have to offer.

yes i say it for fun to be arrogant and troll you but also because i genuinely do not remember the feeling. i ate too little a few weeks ago while taxing my body way harder then usual so i just couldn't move and felt weak but took me but a few days of sitting in the sun and eating more calory dense food for me to recover to my old strength. of course i did not go to the doctor because, i just did what i thought is best, which i also include in my arrogance against you because clearly whoever drinks energy drinks DOESN'T.

Where do you believe consciousness comes from?

>>325235
Orch-OR.
brain probably collects / receives consciousness from upper dimension(it's literally impossible to access to other dimensions if it exist, so talking about "scientific" findings about it is stupid) like a radio receiver. so consciousness does not come from material universe but our brain's condition can affect our perception of consciousness because it acts like a receiver.

>>325430
What makes you believe in dualism and not idealism?

>>325431
consciousness and existence itself. if something exists, it exists. absolute singularity is only possible in nothingness. since there is no nothingness, existence already carries distinction within it. consciousness is the directly known face of that distinction.

infinite composition is impossible, no matter how far down you go, at the end there must be a structure that cannot be broken apart, cannot be divided, that is one within itself.
you can call it a monolith, the absolute, the fabric of the unlverse, or the most fundamental law. the name changes but the necessity does not.
evverything that is composite rests on something more basic than itself. this chain cannot go on forever. in the end there must be monolith/foundation/structure/rule.

we keep searching for this monolith outside, further down. we go beneath the atom, we look into quantum fields, we chase more fvndamental particles, more fundamental structures. as if that monolith were hidden somewhere in a depth we have not yet reached. yet the only real oneness we have ever directly and immediately touched is the nonduality of experience, consciousness.

consciousness can appear fragmented, it can feel scattered, it can even seem divided in certain states. but there is still a oneness that lives that fragmentation, that scatteredness. without that oneness, there would be no such thing as a "part". so the apparent division does not cancel the underlying oneness. on the contrary, it presupposes it.

the point that goes unnoticed is this. we are not separate beings who have stepped outside the monolith and are examining it from a distance.
we are inside the monolith. we are the monolith itself. consciousness is the monolith, and we are that consciousness.while we chase the indivisible structure out there, we fail to see that we are already inside it, that we are identical with it.
trying to break the physical world down into more fundamental parts is a pursuit of oneness/foundation. but oneness is not something that will be found at the end of the process of division. unity / foundation / oneness is what must already be there for any kind of division to be possible in the first place. and the place where we know that unity most directly is our own experience.

the indivisible structure we keep searching for out there is already present in the very nature of our own experience. we just don’t realize it.

even if we were completely separate, individual consciousnesses with no connection to any higher single consciousness, that would change nothing.
each one of them would still be a monolith in itself.

for a brain in the physical world to produce consciousness, it would have to be a genuine Post too long. Click here to view the full text.
