Living on Earth is not worth Anonymage 05/12/26 (Tue) 17:27:23 No.307749 [Reply]

I'm an isekaist, I believe I'll get reincarnated in another world as I please. I don't think living in this world is worth, like this world is not what I wished for. I might have committed serious sins in my past life. So, I basically did nothing wrong in my current life and God/Deity/Goddess doesn't punish suicidal people as the bible doesn't mention condemnation to those who kill themselves.

>living is not worth it
I agree. I'm Christian and it's evil to say God sends people to Hell for suicide according to the Bible as it nowhere says this, in fact several Old Testament figures game ended themselves.
Isekaism, that is being forced to live over and over again sounds incredibly depressing to me.

Canada got rid of the D-glucuronolactone in the original Monster and Monster Zero Ultra. How does this make you feel wizzies? Imo that was one of the defining ingredients in the Monster energy blend, and taking it out makes Monster not too dissimilar from every other energy drink on the market. (It was what caused that specific feeling of stimulation in your cerebral cortex that you don't get with other beverages.)

Also energy drink general I guess

Why does society benefit wrongdoers? Anonymage 10/12/25 (Sun) 06:00:19 No.226669 [Reply]

Some news portals were talking about employing ex-convicts by providing shelter, food, a job and other opportunities, while many people my age have difficulties finding a job at McDonald's or any other shitty job to start their career (I'm 22 years old), dealing with mental health issues and so on, because we are treated as lazy even when no one wants to lend a hand.

because ex-convicts are dangerous, if they experience homelessness and don't have money to buy food (let's not even talk about drug/alcohol addictions) they're going to rob someone.
having a job also keeps them busy so they don't get involved into gang business.
>>226672
prison is indeed useless, it should be replaced with labor camps.
only people who are disabled or seriously ill get sent to prison, the rest have to work 12 hours a day, 6 days a week, that way it would save taxpayers money, have them repay their debt to society and it would serve as an actual deterrence.

True. Any wizard who doubts that should check out female oriented fiction, especially the one amateurish writeressesses write for other succubi online. I've beat my meat to lots of different shit throughtout the years but even the darkest creation of japanese bastards who create smut for perverts pale in comparison to all the rape, torture, sadism and other gruesome shit they shlick to. Like gangsters killing off fMC families, kidnapping them, torturing them but it's alright thought, the gangster falls in love and simply chokes and beats her lovingly.
If you realize that this is just the average female fantasy, then all we see in this cursed society makes perfect sense.

People don't understand that callousness, yelling and indifference to others are signals of status, because historically, displaying that behavior got your head kicked in if you were low on the pecking order. Most normal people still have instincts that keep that behavior in check because we're wired for a different society, but the punishment is gone. Some unemployed druggie sadist can go fuck with a wagie for sport, mistreating him, and the wagie can't do anything back without risking his job. Despite on paper the wagie being above the delinquent, succubi respond to the person doing the berating.

Being too friendly and too agreeable is also a signal of low status, because that behavior is typically only done by neurotypicals if they're at risk of expulsion. Even in real life, when I see someone non-autistic who is TOO nice, he almost always is either planning a backstab, is in a precarious position with employment or has some filthy secret he's kept hidden, typically a sex crime.

The egalitarian play-nice leveling that society has attempted has just exacerbated the situation and made it worse, and lead to the blackpill. Obviously succubi don't find agreeable and over-socialized men attractive, and while socialization to society's values was once a good trait that lead to positive results, now it leads to deleterious results. The end result is that people turn to cynical and cold explanations (the blackpill), and shred their pro-social outlook.

Society was a lot worse and a lot more brutal not too far into the past, and it was typically pro-social people that survived. I feel like blackpillers and crabs can't really look past the specifics of the modern era. Part of the reason white and east asian societies are so relatively safe and corruption free is because the anti-social elements repetitively got pruned.

Want to die but afraid of dying before living. Anonymage 04/10/26 (Fri) 21:02:04 No.306959 [Reply]

I have a lot of faults of my own, perhaps my current predicament is entirely my fault. I have no friends. No one to talk to. But things are worse, I was born and currently live in a really hated country on this planet but regardless it could've always been worse, I could've been a prisoner in North Korea or on the menu in Africa for a good hearty meaty meal.

The true tragedy is I am significantly over than 21, I have a very rocky relationship with my parents, who abused the hell out of me, and I literally shake and tremble in fear when my parents are angry, I can feel pain in my heart. But guess what I am over 21 years of age and they are not bound by any law to take any care of me at all but they still do, they have also helped me a lot, while I don't wish them harm, I do wish I lived away from them.

And of course I am unemployed, to a great extent, I get talked down on daily basis, while I am grateful for what my parents have done for me, I am grateful for what normies have done for me by making wonderful things like mobiles and games. I do not like the fact that my father has a carte blanche to say anything to me and do anything to me, I am grateful for society for giving me mobiles and games, as I said. But I don't like how my value is only derived from what I earn.

If I don't earn, I am a pest, a drain on resources, my parents treat me like I am disposable, with no respect, at all. And why should they cause love isn't unconditional because if they loved me unconditionally, maybe I would've abused them instead. No such thing as that.

I just want to die but I am terrified of dying without living for once. I live in an honor culture mixed with Western Style liberalism and as an unemployed person, I am the lowest common denominator in them. Money has somehow turned out to be more important than I expected it to be, I mean money is water, money is food, and money is roof. I knew that but I didn't knew how.

I have never spent a day of my life that wasn't in constant anxiety and worrying about something, not a single day in my life where I could claim that 'Yes, it was a good day.'. Perhaps I am like one of those weird females who don't want solutions to their problems but they just want to be heard, when they talk, if you know what I mean. And it surprises me that I have an iota in common with succubi.

As I said a lot of fault lies with me, I have tried for jobs, and tried for online ways to earn. But pePost too long. Click here to view the full text.

An incident happened with me today because my father doesn't do proper maintenance of things and instead called some discount guy to do it and he ruined the appliance, he started to shout at me, as if it was my fault.

Never in my life have I wanted to put a kick right into someone's head like today. But I pray to the lord everyday that my father dies. That Pajeet has ruined my life and I have to take it cause I am unemployed. So the world tells me that I should be grateful even if he now has a carte blanche to abuse the fuck out of me.

I am nearing 30. I've been like that all my life. I have a friend but we share just the basic stuff, going to the same school, knowing same people, not that much in common.
When I was much younger I had several bouts of 'I can find myself friends and maybe even a cute girlfriend like in one of them animes'. It never went anywere. My attempts at finding friends get crushed by the fact most people i've encountered in my life are just plain retards with whom I can't discuss anything. We just don't share anything with them. I realized what's the point? I'd rather be in my own company that waste time and effort on fruitless relationships.

i remember when i was 20, my mom and a friend of her kept trying to get me and her daughter together. she'd suggest random ideas to me that were obviously just setups so we could meet and i'd always shut them down or dismiss them.
around this time she bought a little niche store, and since i'd dropped out of college recently she would make me spend the entire day taking care of it all by myself (she had another job). she and her friend made it so the daughter would also go work with me after being done with her college classes.
it was so awkward and we were both aware that it was just some contrivance by our mothers that we had no interest in. she didn't come back after the first week.
some six months later i went to a cousin's birthday party. the succubus was also there because my aunt, the cousin's mom, was also friends with her mom. some guy had gotten her pregnant and they told me he had left her. my aunt said to me, "your mom told me you guys know each other, why don't you go say hi to her?" i was like, "uhh… no, i'm okay."

my mom eventually got herself an employee for her store after 10 or so months, and i went back to neet'ing in my room in peace.
happy end.

the ironic part about all this is that their "go say hi to her" attitude is the very reason you end up as a lilwiz. first they fail to notice your libido isn't as high as television says it should be, then they crush the remnants of your self-confidence and self-respect by basically ensuring you fail at the most basic milestones of social life.

i wouldn't mind if it was just being a "failure" with succs, but this influence widely spreads on to other fields of social functioning rendering you a retarded neet.

Have you never tried any stronger stimulants? Modafinil is pretty weak in my opinion, I had energy issues like the OP when I was in university and only managed to finish it on stronger stims like Ritalin and it's RC variants. If it's the first thing you ever take it will probably be god tier like that but I would recommend something stronger for somebody in OP's position for sure.

>>307711
>>307689
Which ones did you try? And the effect gets stronger with higher doses, not lower doses. Ritalin and 4F-MPH are the sole reason I was able to finish my university degree despite having a severe lack of energy due to my sleep apnea.
I would recommend you to go visit a doctor if you are constantly fatigued, you are most likely experiencing some medical issue, but in the mean time the right stimulants might be able to keep you functioning.

>>307710
Sadly, some people just need to take them to keep functioning in this gay society. It's not ideal but they can seriously save your life. I would rather achieve something with the help of jewpills than dissapointing myself and everybody who cares about me to stay sober.

Anonymage 05/12/26 (Tue) 08:56:06 No.307733

Also, one more thing, are you motivated to finish your courses and where did you take those stimulants?
I used to take them in a bathroom stall while at my university's library, and then immediately go sit in the library to do all my coursework / assignments. I found that taking them like that helped me be way more productive since if you're at school you're gonna already be in the right mindset to work on things. Stimulants don't really help that much with motivation in my experience so you gotta be smart with your situation around it. If you take them at home it'll be easy to just jack off and play videogames the whole time, even if you do have the energy to do your schoolwork.
Going out to a public spot where you can do your school stuff without too much disturbance can help even without the stimulants. You should try it some time.

>im such a failure
School itself is fail. To drop out of it does not make a failure out of a man. University only exists to exploit the needs of hypersocial humans who have developed a dependency on being surrounded by their peers 10 hours each day as a result of being forced in to such an environment since kindergarten. If you've ever spent a day at primary or secondary education sometimes thinking "man, school sucks, I'd rather be at home playing Gamecube", then you've still maintained some of your humanity by not rewiring your brain to revere the concept of being at school as a form of Stockholm syndrome. You're the normal healthy one.

If you don't wake up every morning excited about how you'll get to spend lunch break talking with friends, about what new hot 3DPD you'll be able to follow around campus, or by what new ways you can impress some old balding teacher… then university isn't for you. Because that's all it is: an adult daycare meant to make the schoolchild's way of life persist in to adulthood as a way of cementing them as an obedient office worker. How to maintain relationships with employees in a closed building while impressing your boss. That is what they teach. Is that the life you want to live? Are you willing to fight tooth-and-all to compete for it among every other university graduate? Can you not imagine any better lifestyles that don't involve keeping up an act every day so you don't get booted out of it?

University's completion is not necessary for 95% of jobs and there's no cultural, fundamental, or artistic skills you can learn from it that can't otherwise be learned for free off of the internet. You have nothing to gain, while giving yourself artificial deadlines and standards which you can fail. A degree means nothing to most employers and people in general. Does it mean anything to you? Does beating a long, arduous video game mean anything to you if it's not a game you enjoy? If the feat of completion isn't even revered by those who you associate with? Your lack of drive despite being in the most energetic point of your life is telling of your incompatibility with school as a concept. You should quit before it breaks you, and maybe clog all the university toilets with paper before you do. Watch as the janitor gets payed a living wage to come out of his private janny cave to pour blue chemicals down the toilets before spending 40 minutes pushing around a cool cart wiPost too long.

Anime just mesmerize people in a way cartoons don't, because anime allows the creators to tell whatever story they want, while cartoons must be family-friendly for some reason.
It's not that cartoons can't do the same as anime, most cartoon teams and studios shoot themselves in the foot with arbitrary limitations.
Ever heard of "Hartman Hips", cartoonists invented it because most publisher didn't allow them to draw boobs. Boobs on their own isn't nsfw, but whatever.

Because Anime has the tendency to deal with themes that aren't as commonly found in Western media, for the simple reason that Japan has very different cultural roots. For example you will have a lot of shows deal with the idea of periods of your life ending and having to move on to a new chapter, especially in any kind of slice of life high school type setting. A lot of Western media also seems to be more prone to adapting the political/social messaging of the week into its content, which is unappealing to many. Now kindly leave this site and don't return.

To rip someone more eloquent off;

You can't cross certain mental barriers and turn really <<Funky>> until you've watched the first season of K-On!

The revelation embedded in CGDCT SoL moe shows is not the plot or the characters, but the presentation of the world. These shows take place in worlds of safety, security, happy homes, living traditions, and full employment. The worst thing that ever happens is a pet dying or someone's family moving away. These stories from their very outset reject the proposition of eternal struggle, suffering, degradation, corruption, collapse and globalism.

as per >>228490
they reject the *framing* of Christian culture in the first place. For an in-depth treatment of this, I recomend https://www.unqualified-reservations.org/2007/09/how-dawkins-got-pwned-part-1/

with the key insights being, the framing of American->Anglophone->Protestant/Capitalist->Christian->Greco/Roman sets basic structures within which ideas are shaped either by conformity or by opposition. If you were brought up in such a tradition, your thinking and conceptualisation is essentially tainted by the framework and archetypes.

Anime, quite possibly uniquely in economically viable art forms in the world, comes from an insulated tradition, which absorbed some of the superficial elements of western animation but applied it inside the Nippon/Shinto framework.

As a particularly strong example of contrast, in a <Western> presentation, the way a problem is resolved is with tools: more guns, more horses, more food, more succubi, whatever - it's essentially an economic race or the application of existing resources more effectively. In .jp media, it's participation in a system which rewards mastery first, status second and resources some point after that.

And it's that last part which I think appeals to us wizards - it certainly appealed to me long before I recognised what it was. It's not "I won over someone else and got more shit" as the premise, it's "I just kept doing what I was already doing until I got really good at it, and it solved my problem."

For failed normies and proto-wizards, that's *enormously* comforting.

For us elder wizards (40+) we start to see the dovetail/horseshoe where the two join together in maturity, but your starting point and whatever form you had the most experience pursuing gives context benefits.

Escapism. It was and is daydream fuel to me. Nowadays mostly manga as anime is too demanding to consume.
Also online communities used to be full of kindred spirits escaping their reality as well.
Nowadays it feels like anime is made for normies and the online spaces are also inhabited by them.
Not saying this in a "hello fellow wizards I fit in right?" way, but lets face it it's nowhere near the same.
Just by virtue of multiple generations having grown up by now it can't be the same.

How much do I have in common with a 20 year old "wizard"? Hell I feel like a retard for having posted at that age in hindsight.
A world has left me behind that I never managed to be a part of.
Of course I'm attached to escapist fantasies…

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.

running for a couple minutes isn’t so bad, although there are run backs that are truly miserable but those are the minority and mostly a DS2 problem. The game allows you to summon NPCs and people or get severely overleveled before a boss fight so the run backs just balance things a little bit

Why is this game treated like a hidden gem? Skylar and Plux is just discount Jak and Daxter. The game is very janky, you can get stuck on a plane that is just elevated 5cm from the one you currently standing on. You have to jump up on it.
This is the equivalent of seeing a person not being able of walking up a doorstep, and have to jump up on it to reach the door. You can clip trough a lot of objects that you shouldn't. They couldn't bother animating pots breaking when you punch them instead they just become dust. level design is just okayish. The story is so cringe. Many people complain that the game was just 2-4 hours, I wouldn't mind it if it was the most amazing 2-4 hours platforming ever. But it's not, it's just something you play if you want something similar to jak and daxter but you already played all of them. Worst part is that this could had been a good game if they had polished it more. Yes there were only 4 devs working on it, it's impressive but the game by itself isn't a gem. Do PC-gamers have very low standards when it comes to platformers?

I liked Banished but like most GOG games there was a software bug that broke the game for me. I had a village that was almost dead and had to be brought back to life through incest.

Far cry isn't as fantastic as people tell you. Story is just your typical action movie plot. The gameplay is pretty fun, could even be amazing, unfortunately ubisoft drop the ball here. Planning out and attacking outposts and fortresses is where the main fun is. But they AI sometimes ruins it.
The AI's detection system is pretty wonky. sometimes you can stay right behind a tiny tree that just cover your face, in front of the enemy and they won't notice you. Other times they detect you because a tiny portion of your body is visible.
The difficulty is also very lazily implemented. Ubisoft just increase the enemies damage output and health depending on mode.
Side missions aren't even fun for the most part, it's just busy work. Drive here within the time limit, kill an animals using a specific weapon, climbing radio towers to reveal more of the map and etc.
The games aren't all that optimize or polished. Far cry 3 on modern hardware set on 1080p ultra? Unstable 50-90fps, PC sounds like an jet engine.
Keep in mind this game is 14 years old. Their other titles in series aren't much better. not to mention Far cry 6 takes up 180gb on your hard drive.
Just imagine how much worse it will be for console players. The games are also ridden with bugs. It crashed a lot when I played it in 2021, when I asked around people told me to set it to DirectX 9.0c because DirectX 11 was unstable. Heard that they fixed it now. So it took Ubisoft more than a decade to fix their game!?

If you start playing these games and expect an 10/10 experience, you will be disappointed.

I watched "Redux Redux" two days ago. It wasn't terrible— just kind of a turn-your-brain-off movie. You throw it on, kick back, and let it wash over you. It's about a succubus with a time machine who keeps jumping between parallel universes to track down the guy who took her daughter away, over and over.

Conformity and imitation drives human behaviour Anonymage 05/09/26 (Sat) 06:07:08 No.307650 [Reply]

I have become increasingly depressed at the state of discourse about almost any subject. Look at the opinions of most people and discuss their reasoning with them; they do not really have reasons based on experience or logic. They are just saying things they think are normal to say. They imitate others. They understand the world through memes. Zero actual curiosity or critical thinking skills when it comes to discussion of politics/culture/history/science/art. Everyone just parrots what they think others think. They think in memes. Partly to fit in and achieve social acceptance and partly just monkey see monkey do like a child or animal.

Democracy is a failure because most people have no idea what they are voting for or what the consequences will be. They just follow the cultural memes. The internet has exacerbated this. Most people’s political views or views on the culture are just glorified SIX SEVEN repetitions - people have no good justification for any of the ideas they follow.

It might sound arrogant and supercilious to say these things. I worry that I am not that different and I just copy things sometimes by instinct. Makes me wonder if the self even fucking exists and we are just biological self replicating robots copying things.

Depressing. Enraging.

Anonymage 05/09/26 (Sat) 06:37:26 No.307651

it's true, but it's worse than you think. most "people" aren't even human, they're bio-robots that react as if they have inner experience but there's nothing there actually. they're part of a hivemind and most of the time they're in idle mode where they just sync up on memes, but sometimes they operate as a unified whole and cause wars and revolutions. i don't know who or what controls them but ever so often it happens and the results are disastrous.

a good litmus test for whether you are dealing with a conscious human is any signs of internal conflict and "neuroticism". this implies that the body and mind (soul) are separate and want to go in different directions. the zombies on the other hand, operate in reality with zero friction because they have no soul and it is trivial to adapt themselves to any arbitrary conditions that they might find themselves in.

>Magic explanation
Crowley in a way in some book was into some psychological explanation of things
in another was into a religious belief in some way pagan
in other was more into the way of Duquette everything its in your mind but you dont know how big its is
but Crowley actually told a student that in magic you call outer occult forces like gods, angels, spirits and etc.
Who fuck knows, the dude changed from that his genius or HGA was a psychological phenomena to a magical occult third party entity out of control of him that make a possesion of his wife and write a damn religious book like an spiritist.
in some text he says that demons of goetia are just part of the brain, i dont know.
or maybe the two posibilies even if are a contradiction are valid.
Crowley was Agnostic, later more Chaoist, later more pagan, and later more religious and later who fuck knows maybe just trippy dude.
>fringe belief into psy
Some guys of chaos magic have some fringe belief beyond agnosticism or atheistic view in a sense just to open something to a psy-powers thing or something. its a kinda rare belief, its more rare than the typical that magick is just doing material things or not to achieve objetives or things, like hypnosis (yep, magick with K is more related to material world than the old paranormal magic)
in some way you can call that everything is just hypnosis or maybe in the more fringe belief this hypnosis with ritual open something to a psy-powers or who knows.
>RAW and mind powers, maybe
Robert Anton Wilson sometimes was in the middle between paranormal and agnosticism and the dude have a lot of fringe-paranormal maybe explainable experiences into a cosmic schizo shit. you can call it that view into quantum things but the dude sometimes was more into something weird is happening and other times that's its just something materialistic psychological.
He first try to relate it to scientific knowledge of its time like the brain waves, alpha state, altered state of mind, drugs, hypnosis and etc (he in some book tried some experiments with this around sound, waves and etc and he says that in some waves he know itPost too long.

I went beyond but found out it's fucking horrible (nofap,semen retention). It's like the soul stands bare before the almighty. This spehere is brutal, took me about six months of this shit to give up. So went back to Lilith,Naamah,Babalon, Ishtar and all the other aspects of Venus. Beautiful, warm pleasure But i gotta go through this sphere to cross the abyss and become that black diamond. Free from the loop, free from the wheel doing whatever the fuck i want. Warning though, once you start this journey there's no getting off, you either burn or ascend. Horrible things will happen to your soul,mind and body. The alternative is coming back to this shithole. The other way, is that dark soul piercing evil that child molestors do like that guy from The True Detective or Epstein. You entrap souls in that awful awful loop and you get more free everytime you do it. The dark side of indian mages know this, they eat the dead, rape their sisters/mothers and know they ascend.

Alcoholism Anonymage 08/11/25 (Mon) 14:25:02 No.302164 [Reply]

Does anyone here struggle with alcohol, or have managed to quit?

It used to be a good coping mechanism for me, but it seems the older I've gotten the worse it feels, and it's become detrimental to my health and the way I behave around people. Easily annoyed, constantly starting shit, tired all the time, strange pains. And I was still getting worse, fast.

This has been a wake-up call and I'm realizing I need to quit before it's too late. Though that's easy for me to say now when I'm still feeling bad, and I fear the cravings will come back strong, but I know I've got to try.

Curious to hear others experience with this.

habits are health Anonymage 01/14/26 (Wed) 19:21:19 No.322725 [Reply]

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.

developing the running habit currently.

i did this when i was younger and i remember that i got runners high from it. i forgot about this. at some point in the run, the body just starts to feel good and usually the good feeling carries itself for a while after the run.

i've been running about half the days in the last 1-2 weeks. around half an hour each time. in the last few days i noticed that i had difficulties exhausting myself and i noticed the presence of this nonsensical barrier that would make me want to stop running after 2 minutes even though i wasn't tired.

today was better. i stopped running only after 5 minutes maybe and i though i had an easier time sweating. one thing i am doing now that i did not succeed in previous attempts was doing it early in the day, at around 8 or 9 in the morning. i tried running late at night and every time i did this, i could not sleep for hours so it would always fuck up my sleep schedule. in one way running costs energy but it also generates nervous system energy (piezo-electrically or however you say it) so believing i would have been able to sleep soon after running may have been futile.

no running early in the day is way better, the entire day gets better! i never knew, never did it right. seems trivial like something i should have known; i didn't.

unfortunately this attracts the females.

>The power of now by Eckhart Tolle
Pls, sorry my Engrish, I have that book and i read it.
I never like the new age and quantum mysticism bullshit in Eckhart Tolle Books.
He talk alot about old greek-roman, Stoic and buddhist philosophy etc but he shit a lot in the practices and just paint it with pop psychology and new age and techno-psychobabble shit made up by him, a lot of people critized this guy bacause he talk alot of erroneous philosophy views from Descartes, Nietzsche, Sartre, buddhist, Christians and just take quotes out of context from these people for self-help guru babble into the path of pop new age guru self help bullshit.
If you have interest in original philosophy and practices, stay fucking away of that dude bacause he use a lot misquotes or quote mining.
But if you just like new age and new thought things mixed up with new age gurue babble, read it without much problems.
>Also
He has a total erroneous perspective of Buddhist concept of suffering and attachment and about the psychology concept of Ego that in a lot of ways is more egoist and dehumanizing than illuminating, typical of cultist of new age. He just ruin the concept of attachment of buddhist and just make a loop-hole of feedback of think-think ego into consciousness, there's zero philosophy of stoics or buddhist or any type of focus in a practice here just cultist shit made up by him.
Even for the Gnostics this is bullshit, you can call it spiritual materialism focused in ego building and destroying the humanizing process. damn new age guru.

i've read your entire post twice. the heavy urgency with which you insist to only see negatives about eckhart tolle does not match the light, substanceless criticism of you decided to bring forward.

why warn me of him when he is but one author of many who decided to share their perspective about it this topic of mindfulness, meditation, nervous system awareness, consciousness or how ever you choose to approach this different mode of relating to life that his books merely point at. why only throw the buzzwords at him as if he did something others did not? the mountain of guilt you ascribe to him seem suspiciously unjust. maybe you are just against people sitting quietly

the eckhart tolle books are basically "spirituality for dummies", dudeman tried to make a very easy approach for stressed-out struggling people who i believe can greatly benefit from some of the concepts he talks about. i thought him bothering to create his own lore and inventing words to grasp more complicated ideas is something that would help a reader. none of his ideas are unique, i believe his intentions are to make it easy and stripped of traditional baggage, which i for one greatly appreciate.

This is the classic "Suicide General", where we discuss methods and say farewell to our fellow wizards.

but considering brain is a computer it is the most realistic answer i know. if self consciousness was real then "i" would be a solid concept instead it's very vague and many even argue that "i" doesn't exist and that ego is an illusion.

Not the fella you're replying to but I don't think the brain can be boiled down to something as "simple" as a computer. I know this sounds woo-woo but my feeling is that the brain, like everything else in nature, has a lot of intuitive wisdom built into it. A computer is designed with a purpose within the limited mental constraints of its designers. There is a vastness, depth and interconnected-ness to things that emerge from natural evolutionary processes that simply do not map onto things made by humans. Perhaps the reason it is hard for us to pin down what "consciousness" is or "where that elusive I is located in the brain" is because we lack the language to even describe these sorts of things because we always get bogged down trying to dissect everything into atomic units.

>i just want to kill myself
That statement needs to be questioned because it's pretentious and presumptuous. Hence philosophy.

Now I'm with you as a pretentious and presumptuous person myself. I think it's obvious that nature and society are based on principles that guarantee suffering and I think it's obvious that any attempt to change yourself and others can never be more than marginal, temporary and superficial. Non-philosophically speaking: it was over before it began. Life sucks and will never get better unless you're a delusional npc.

Now if that's the case, it seems reasonable to assume that there is a force making it so. Do you believe you can defy that force by ending the body? Perhaps you can because that force selects those who are willing to put up it with it. That's the irony of the antinatalist desire: soon countless single men and countless single succubi are going to die without children and the world will go on with an ever increasing number of delusional npc's. Say rope-chan, do you like that thought?

but this is the suicide thread, not the philosophy thread
idk about “defying” the force behind it by kms, but at the very least this life will end, so even if i have no absolute knowledge of whatever comes afterwards, i’m sure it won’t be a repetition
and yes, that final thought does bring me some comfort
we can’t leave this world without a smile, wiz

I am really tired
How can I find happiness independant of other people?
I cant deny I feel the need for connection, but it always ends poorly for me

realistically what you really crave is just validation. connection is when you're validated by another person's existence because they share your world view or identity. that's difficult for wizardly types because we are more unique and less conformist than others, so it's difficult to find and meet such people.

>>307582
this is a good impersonal way of getting validation that might work for wizardly types. do something valuable, provide a service to a community of people and receive good feedback for it. you have to find a community that isn't completely anonymous and where content isn't transient, so that your contributions can compound and you increase the chance of your work being recognized by others.

i spent a good part of my teenage years just answering people's questions on tech forums and it was actually quite a good source of validation. even though i never made any "friends" in a traditional sense, helping people out with their questions and problems was rewarding for its own sake.

there's tons of ways of getting positive feedback from other people. probably easier than ever now that you have the internet. you just have to put yourself out there, create something interesting, help other people, provide interesting opinions and "takes" that mirror what people are already thinking about etc.
