greetings wizzerds, i hope you are doing good. i am currently in south africa for a holliday because i was hoping to find nice places to live in case europe becomes uninhabitable and unlike many of you i generally do not feel hatred towards the negro but i am willing to admit that there is truth to the common criticisms.

>rough place to live
>everybody lives behind automatic gates, high walls, except for the people in the slums, i walked through there which was nerve wrecking. it is very difficult to avoid them because there are always just few roads to choose to go some place.
>infrastructure is far behind though the most important stuff functions
>water could be drunk from the tap in theory but the system often is often brekaing down and dirty water comes out the tap until they fix it.
>no toiletpaper or soap in the library bathroom
>the university is built like a prison, security checks everywhere, cameras everywhere
>people give me dirty looks, they are way more scared of me then i am of them (thanks to meditation, i kid you not, i repeat i kid you not)
>people do scam me every chance they get, it feels awful and it is so obvious but i don't know how to deal with it i just give them more and don't mind but it demoralizes and saddens me
>guard dogs everywhere, barking all night, human guards everyhwere
>i have seen less then 10 white people in the whole town and they were all fat and dead inside
>there are a lot of aggressive females the same way i know it from europe but there are also quiet peaceful succubi, many of them wear the fake hair which looks ridiculous
>there is an abundance of affordable food but the people eat stuff that is very bad for them, a lot of overweight people

still my heart goes out to the the people and i gently smile at them. they did not deserve to be colonized by english people and now they have all the typical disadvantages of an english speaking culture.
the one nice thing is that the weather is real. there are no chemtrails in the sky and no strange looking mechanical demoralizing cloud formations.

Why did you choose South Africa for tourism in partucular? From what I've seen online it must be one of the countries with more animosity towards cumskins out there.

White South Africans are some of the hardiest Calviniggers alive. If they can survive in South Africa, they'll be fine not that some of them wouldn't thrive elsewhere like Elon and Belle Delphine. They have anime cons in South Africa. You should drop into one of Prof. David Benatar's classes lol. I would have brought some tech hardware to sell to people on Carbonite.

>Why did you choose South Africa for tourism in partucular?
was a long process to choose it. i don't need a visa, the weather is not as extreme as in other parts of africa, turns out i would have really enjoyed very warm temperatures and right now i am too cold most of the day and there is no heating in my room. from what i have gathered no american military bases, decriminalized weed, not too expensive (unless you consider the white tax everybody tries to scam me to pay)

>From what I've seen online it must be one of the countries with more animosity towards cumskins out there.

there is this dude malema who openly called for violence against white people which only made me more interested in the place because obviously he is talking sense and white people have been robbing africa for generations.

a little but but looks like i have bitten of more then i can chew. though i did learn a ton already. i commited the number one white people sin. i'd be very surprized if anyone could come up with a bigger sin, which is i did not adequately prepare for winter. that's white failure right there.

The recent mass deletions from this thread didn't happen because they were "schizoposts". It was because they were posted in unrelated threads, deleted, posted again by the same guy, deleted, then posted again by the still banned guy with additional insults to the userbase tacked on to his copypasta. The poster had no involvement with the site beyond his single repeated post so he was deemed an outsider.

The geopolitical posts made above are unique, on-topic, and the user seems to engage with the site in other ways.

…I'm just typing out shit 'cos I've got nothing better to do at work. There's nothing an accountant does these days beyond tapping 5 buttons every 20 or so minutes, and that's the life I've chosen.
Well, glad the posts aren't getting deleted anyway.
Here's the overall global map for everything typed up above.
As can be seen, Greater Israel is contrasted/mirrored well via Greater Iran.
The bantu expansion swallows and turns black everything till there's nothing remaining whatsoever. In fear the same might happen elsewhere, North Africa unites fully and conceives a 'roadblock', so to say.
India's a dangerous zone but will be barricaded and concealed well after the War in 2034, whereupon it'll no longer, in any capacity, have global relevance. North East India and Kashmir/Ladakh and Sikkim and South Tibet and just a bit more are the only issues after all. They'll be returned to their rightful owners, they'll be made independent, and that's the end of that. Many Indians might end up dead. Many here meaning millions. But, that's just what happens in war.
ASEAN will strengthen further to contain China.
Greenland will go to the EU since it'll be boring if only 2 powers are up in the Arctic.
Cuba and the islands therein will be part of Mexico. In this way, Mexico et al serves as the in-between of two powers.
North America -gap- South America: gap 1, Mexico
China -gap- Australia: gap 2, ASEAN
Madagascar becomes sorta civilized and nice via Chinese aid.
Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan.. end up uniting, and become an autonomous federal subject of Russia.
China's largest expansion concludes with annexing Mongolia.
Korea A and Korea B become KoreaAB.
Islam gets banned/outlawed in Greater Iran. Or well, they begin mechanically purging any Arab influence 'cos the Arabs will begin transparently making clear their allegiance to Israel, specially after they create Kurdistan for them by taking from Turkey's east which'll be a port foundation ferrying along whatever Khazaria brings, and so the rest of the world will probably not like that. So, Zoroastrianism returns.
Stuff like making calls to prayer gets banned. If people are to attend for prayer, let them know it on their own account.
Stuff like building 1 million mosques gets banned. You're only allowed 1 Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

I am not in a position to move out and I always have to listen to complaints about everything I do
Its affecting my happiness quite a bit, its a good day when I dont have to interact with anyone for a day
As if I dont know im a failure
The complaining never stops
I was a Neet I got cried to alot for that, now im a student and I still get talks about finding a part time job the same way, despite me getting money
Its so tiresome
I once worked full time for over a year, it was such a bad time to me, I dont have the energy like normies do
The worst part about it all is my mom telling me I should move out if I dont like it
I want to move out very badly, but how can I when the few hundred I get a month is barely enough to live?
Even with a part time job it would not be enough
I dont see the situation changing anytime soon

I am unemployed after college now, and don't remember a single skill that I learnt in the college, and it's heating up these days. The house is constructed in such a way that a few rooms don't heat up that much. One of that is mine and the other is of my parents, both have an AC and I use it sparingly though, like about 3 hours in 24 hours combined.

And since I am unemployed and since it is not my house and my father's house, he now has a carte blanche to anything he wants so of course he moved into "my" room under the guise of "We all live together like a family". And slept there yesterday on the damn bed and was acting befuddled as to why I wouldn't sleep there.

Which prompted me to go to another room with AC where my mother and brother was, and with a third bed, I tried to sleep there but the mattresses were so hard because my mother's got issue with her backs, so she bought a pair of hard mattresses. And my father did it intentionally he knows that I value privacy and personal space which is why he moved there cause he can.

I honestly am terrified by this summer time, I will now have to sleep in another room entirely where I will sweat all night on bed. And I need to sleep because sleep deprivation is a severe killer of mind and body. And I have no idea how I am even going to do that to be honest tonight, he knows what he did was a shit move, he knows he's being inconsiderate, he knows I have no option so he'll abuse me whichever way he can.

Fuck this world man, I literally only wish I had money and I have tried so much to earn money but to no avail at all. I cannot wait for this moron to collapse as quickly as possible and the thing is this heat terrifies me because it heats up my laptop and my phone. It is going to kill my electronics prematurely and of course knowing the environment in my family no one will buy me another one. The sheer fucking heat is unbelievable to be honest it's like it's not even survivable and you can still go through the day ironically because you're not trying to sleep. At night just being able to enter sleep is hellish to be honest.

Honestly, it really is quite crazy, not only that it's just while it gets very bearable outside in the night (although not anymore due to urban heat island effect) but the houses made of RCCs radiate heat till the morning, honestly, sleep deprivation is the worst part of it and has cumulative effects like while driving a car or riding a moped or simply the fact that you're not likely to pay attention when crossing the road. I have just come to terms with the fact that most important thing in life is just money, it's now how you look or what not, it's about having money.

I mean you try to sleep at night and you somehow manage to sleep for 2 hours and then you wake up and your entire neck is drenched in sweat and the t-shirt near the neck literally feels like someone poured water on it and no matter which position you sleep in it starts eventually burn your body and things get so bad that even if you do go to AC after it, you still feel incredibly hot and it feels like heat is literally in your bones. And it makes you angry and pissed off which further makes it extremely hard to sleep. Heat really is the biggest killer. I just hope some magic happens and heat goes to 60C wet bulb and I die instantly.

It has become extremely difficult to earn a good amount of money in a short period of time, you can't just go around selling stuff and become somehow wealthy everything is saturated including social media and marketing if you're lucky they will just give you an average income, it's like the entire world has been enslaved and accessing wealth is similar to accessing an exclusive legacy of privileged individuals who own real eastate, businesses and positions. Expect every summer to become hotter and southern states to become like desert in the future as we go through the hardest climate crisis the world has ever experienced since ice age.

Absolutely, and there is this weird thing that even if you do get a job, the employers act as such that you have to prove your loyalty to them and their test is to give you a wage where you can't live, I mean just to give you an idea, I would be more than happy if I could earn just 200USD a month from the internet. But I mean earning online is honestly a race to the bottom and even there you have to grind and even after that there is no guarantee, but yeah I mean it's actually kind of crazy how heat feels like it feels like my bone is heating up and pricking up the meat around it. Death can't come sooner tbh.

I thought that at 44 years old this stuff wouldn't get at me anymore but I was wrong.

All those cute couples rollerblading. Young mothers pushing strollers and smiling. People laughing in the park. People playing soccer in the field. Everyone is so happy, so content with their lot in life. They are so well-adjusted to this life.

People talking in upbeat tones. Groups of people socializing, laughing, smiling.

Everywhere I went today it was like this.
Its amazing how easy life is when you are neurotypical. It's like everything falls into place without much struggle and effort. You are always pre-programmed to get the most out of life without having to do anything special to make it happen.

This is just a small visible percentage of social reality that mainly consists of well thought out, intentionally demonstrated „personal well being and a competition of showing to others how great and awesome (your) life is“. This is not representative of truth, it is an aspect of one part of reality and it has some biological evolutionary functions and it is not a bad thing per se but it’s not necessary to live a good life. Have you grown up in a family? Have you witnessed neurotypicals being in a bad mood, angry, sad etc.? In my family there was so much dispute and troubles but I always was silent one, the person who witnessed all the problems but never took part in these interactions. But even in public sometimes you can witness the stress and dispute families and other gatherings go through, I'm glad to not be part of that. People in public normally make a good job of hiding all the suffering, the imperfections, the socially incompatible side of life. In fact you can find solace in the insight that you don’t have to pretend, don’t have to act as if everything is great, you don’t have waste an ounce of energy to participate in this showcase of socially acceptable behavior. Mind you, a sub-percentage of the displayed behavior actually is people being happy without having to pretend. But don’t think this is permanent or the usual case. Most normier suffer because they have been part of this percentage of social reality and only then know what it’s like missing that, the work you have to put in to keep it going, the fear of losing touch, the knowledge of how fragile and often times dishonest, artificial, superficial this whole thing is. We have none of those worries. So that’s nice.

They are well aware, they probably have thousands of applicants emails lol. This is why they can treat us like shit. My boomer dad sometimes tells me stories about how his workplace treated people. They used to get DOUBLE pay on ALL holidays and overtime, the day after/before holidays was also double time + an extra lieu day. Bonuses were handed out every month which was like 2 weeks pay. Every Christmas they had a raffle and gave shit away like BBQs, 500 dollar vouchers, and the main prize would be a brand new car.

My boomers would tell me same crap from back in 1980s. Job Application was: walk in, can i work here please? One page job application, start next day. Bonuses Bonuses and more Bonuses, and actual money, not a $20 gift card BS. And i remember my boomers flippin out in early 1990s it was all bein discontinued.

Yeah, at my company it feels like every good employee is doing the work of 2 to 3 people, partly because they constantly under-resource everything to cut costs (increase profit for the owners), and partly because there's so many shit employees that don't pull their weight but HR refuse to do anything about.

I want to talk to you about fate: does it exist or not? Honestly, I don't know. I won't claim to believe in it unconditionally, but I looked at my natal chart (Shoutout to my astrologer friend from the other thread! I know you're reading this). During this time, I've talked to magicians, psychologists, internet freaks, and even talked to AI. And, of course, I've tried to start my life from scratch many times. I've tried to find a job many times, but I've lost it. And now I'm 28 years old, guys. I just want to throw everything away. I'll be 30 in two years. I have no education, I've never really learned anything in my entire life, and I've spent half of it living off my parents. I'm literally a loser, a nobody. The older you get, the more clearly you realize: trying to start over doesn't work when you're in poor health. Let's be honest, many of us have lousy health; many of us rarely even go outside. Besides, there's no money for education, not to mention the strict regulations, the need to pass exams, and other difficulties. And I ask myself: did I even have a choice in how to live? Or was my life built from the very beginning according to some divine plan, a supercomputer, or something similar? After all, if you think about it, all my decisions have always turned out to be wrong. I constantly did the wrong thing, made mistakes out of stupidity or naivety. So, is everything predetermined? I'm still tormented by this question. If I were to get up tomorrow and say, "That's it, I'm leaving this life and I'm no longer a burden," I still wouldn't be able to change much. I won't become a doctor or a scientist at 30. External factors influence us too much. Does that mean that even my decision to change something tomorrow was already made not by me, but by someone else? And I just play out this scenario over and over again, and there was no real freedom of choice. But you know what's the scariest thing? It turns out that no matter what we do, we can't jump above our heads. As the saying goes: "Play stupid games, get stupid prizes" or "You can't teach an old dog new tricks." Actually, I want to ask you: do you believe in fate? Are we really destined to suffer our entire lives? I looked at myself: I'm 28, I haven't learned anything, and I just wasted this life. I wish I'd never been born.

I think fate is something kind of like momentum. There's a natural result given the current state of things, but it can be changed if someone uses their free will to do so.
However, the closer you get to an event or a condition the harder it is to do this. Sometimes you are too close and it becomes impossible to modify, but I think the general case is more that you can steer it a bit.

Thinking mistakes lead people to believe in fate.

Well then I'm glad to see that gatekeeping isn't even necessary if this is the level of entrants we're dealing with. You can't even find the gate. Not that the gate protecting bad-on-purpose garbage like Evengelion is worth keeping, but in time actual good anime may fall victim to the "suddenly popular with gay emo normalfags" treatment and when that happens I'll be thankful that most of them don't actually know how to use a computer well enough to acquire anime.

My mom is already LDAR'ing due to the debt and she's already lost one child, so I think either by suicide or stress she would die. My dad? He didn't seem to care that much when my stepbro died, but I am his firstborn. I don't know really. My little brother would probably just turn into me. That's my only concern. Everyone else, would cry for a day maybe.

Thesis:

Engagement with structurally advanced texts and excellent rhetoric trains and temporarily optimises the mind into recurring modes of organization, attention, abstraction, and inference; repeated exposure can temporarily or semi-durably bias cognition toward those modes independently of propositional content.

Or in simpler terms, in the same way that algebra & calculus trains the mind towards logical and methodical thought in the long term, I believe it's possible for works of illustration, music and literature to do so in the short term. If this is true, then it's advantageous to catalogue such art-efacts and optimise exposure to them.

I'm not talking about the first order; "no duh, I read something that told/reminded me of facts and now they're at the front of my attention" or involuntary emotional responses, I'm talking about the temporary mental structure. Meditation or such like, if it works, seems to work by selecting for facts and details, voluntarily emphasising inputs to get desired outputs. It should notionally be possible then, to exercise the mind in such a way that one or more patterns of thought and emphasis can be either cold stored, or reliably reconstructed with inputs on demand. I think genius lies in being able to do this at will and not rely on outside props, but i'm not a genius.

The inspiration for this idea came from reading Robert Carlyle in the morning and consequently having a very organised and effective day at work, but I've noticed it much earlier in the second and third novel of Kai Lung. In the later case, the pleasant but none-the-less non-trivial effort of very complex English usually leaves me in a "well spoken" state for quite some time. I originally put this down to simple mimicry but perhaps there's more to it.

Thoughts? Examples of useful material?

If this is true, consider the darker side - that it's possible to artificially construct and reinforce dysfunctional frames of mind, not just overloading the memory and attention with noise and conflict, but actually implant a structure of thought - at scale. If this was so, how well does it explain modernity.

I mean, that might have literally been me. I remember posting something about how pretending to be a ninja in training helped me do my calisthenic exercise like push ups and pull ups(and also how that same "pretending" did not extend into motivating me to for example lift weights in the gym, because that doesn't fit the conceptual framing).
Yeah, interesting threads for sure, but I never really ended up figuring out how to fully utilize it. The biggest issue I faced is the constant back sliding. It's like when you watch a movie and start acting like the main character; it usually lasts for a week or two, then you're back to your old self. When you use your imagination to conceptually reframe your self-image you end up with the same problem of short duration.

Not I, but this sounds interesting too. A decade or so ago I was reading the egoists with a view to brute force a change in perspective away from thinking of myself as a subject seen by others and instead a self actualising subject. All it came to was the big 5 and practical applications but perhaps I was just too young.

Which is why i'm looking for external tools to solve the problem. I've reached roughly the point of diminishing returns on CBT and so on, and I'm "better" after having had such external interventions but now - after not being in a constant state of disaster management for the first time in my adult life, i'm aware that altered mental states can contribute to a useful end, if managed effectively.

I don't know, I'm 24 years old and basically I haven't done anything but stay in my room. I'm usually on the computer and reading books, although lately I've let myself go and just been eating snacks and using Steam. Being flooded with strange thoughts, I've tried to write to you all, but the writings are even stranger. I also know I'm very slow because I'm contemplative, and in general, I find it hard to adapt to anything or do anything. I don't know how to do anything particularly well, and feeling like everything outside is such a rushed, chaotic, dangerous world… I don't know, it scares me. I feel worried about my future. Although I feel good walking in the woods, I don't even know why I'm writing this. I don't know, like many other things, I just wanted to write it, maybe with a hidden reason inside me. I haven't been feeling well lately, although it's been an interesting and incredible trip. I'm sleepy. Hugs to everyone, I love you all.

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.

It's a great hobby! I bought my first board (cruiser) last summer. I remember the first time I came back from the skate park I felt the most joy in recent years. It also helps you stay present in the moment and get some exercise - I was into lifting prior.

It took me an entire month several hours a day learning to ollie, that's when I was a kid and was extremely motivated and had the energy for it. It is the hardest trick to learn as it's the first "real" trick you do. The falling aspect is scary, especially with age. I've fallen a few times recently but luckily they were controlled, and I did that roll. A sudden impact might take me out for months at this stage.

Very nice! I bet the cruiser feels very smooth and amazing to ride? I will be getting one soon as all of the parts are cheap enough, very slim variety of soft wheels for sale which isn't very nice. I'd like to get really good at doing manuals, and potentially being able to carve bowls later with slash grinds.

I'm playing Jackie Chan: Stuntmaster on PS1 and it rocks. It's a simple 3D beat 'em up with a few platform elements, a product of its time for sure, but I don't see any issue in that, beating people up is satisfying and that's all a beat 'em up needs to do right, it needs to feel good when you hit things and it does.

Its pretty fun, I like how they blended in the rouguelike/soulslike elements hat they chose to put into their shooty game. Id call it doom but with souls mechanics. Most of my time is spent running through the same 2 levels shooting he same guys trying to git gud and to unlock what secrets I can, and grinding for souls before getting filtered by the next level.

I've been playing Darkest Dungeon. I didn't care for it when it first came out but now I'm enjoying it enough. I like the fact I can play it with one hand and since it's turn based I can take my time to read items descriptions, comparing characters, analyze trinckets, effects, etc. I like games that let me take my time.

Canada got rid of the D-glucuronolactone in the original Monster and Monster Zero Ultra. How does this make you feel wizzies?

What is everyones thoughts on leaving a suicide note? Is it necessary for closure for others? A way to get everything off your chest before you ack? Or just a waste of time?

I have been staring at my .60 cent retirement plan, and am not sure if I would just like to go out and just have everyone guessing. Or if its right to leave a note. Most of my family thinks I am useless or lazy. However they have no introspection on that they are the ones who raised me.

Ok i gonna give you some advice around hypnosis and mind (the thread of magick tech have some info books and etc around this)
>how its works?
Just imagine a kid waking up by her mom/father/tutor in the morning yelling out him with insults while maybe hit the kid, this kid will have the day ruined maybe with bad humour and negative ideas (imagine this everyday, of the childhood) and it will feel like a total piece of shit, the other personal thing of this kid doesnt matter for now but get the outcome.
now compare this to a kid waking up by her mom/father/tutor with a warm -good day, today is a good day!- in a soft loving tone voice while try to maybe hurry the kid a little or help the kid to wake up (or even try to wake up the kid with more time to not hurry you too much)

These two kids in the waking up (even adults) are incredible suggestionable, just imagine who of the two will have a more good outcome in the day, and even in the next day if the first phrases they listen when wake up and enter in the mind are like
-Wake up little piece of useless meat-shit asshole fuc…! hit and yell the kid*-
and
-Good morning, honey, kiss in the forehead while some family touch* its a warm day, wake up you need to go to prepare for school!-

This book around Clinical hypnosis and CBT and the books of Michael D. Yapko are interesting, these have some good tips for self-hypnosis or methods for treatment for deppresion for lay people and therapists.
The Adam Eason book is still a good book for start.
>Also
Yapko focus is non-drug-based therapies in the treatment of depression, his focus is Process-Oriented Hypnosis for some problems.

>The New Harbinger books
The New Harbinger books have a lot of books around self-help method based in techniques around therapies like CBT, DBT, ACT etc if you want to investigate more techniques or skills training that have some scientific support that help.
>Its just a worksheet with instructions to write bullshit and learn nothing like a dialog of a NPC?
No, its not just a worksheet like these for help during therapy session working, these books are like manuals with explanations of methods techniques and training in skills.
Good luck, Wiz.
