Currently, I’ve watched quite a bit of NGE, I’m on episode four. I was wondering if I should finish it, or if it’s just overrated garbage. Please let me know. Thank you.

It's not life changing if you're over the age of 13 but it's a cult classic and I think being "in the known" can't be a net negative. What I would do is watch the original run, then End of Evangelion and finally move on because the Rebuild sucks and isn't worth your time.

There's a certain time in your life to watch anything, and it's probably been overhyped to you.

what does your body 'think' about you?
>about your management of your personal human organism.
>about your decisions on what to put in it, or on it.
>about where you take it and when and how often.
>about how you use it

i reject the normoid idea that the body can not think or have an opinion. electricity flows into every cell, not just the bracrabls. life and emotion are all over the body except for in those people who believe their body is just a machine used to park the brain in front of screens.

i do think the body is it's own thing and ideally it is in a mutual loving relationship with the brain. i guess many group-minded people who know nothing but war will have a hostile relationship between body and brain.

i take good care of my body and i love it. it has been so good to me and i always give it enough sleep and put good food in and exercise it and then when i am doing something, it is so accomodating, supportive and helpful. i can not help but suspect it knows me and happily helps me through life. i am fully aware that this is not most people's experience. but it could be most people's experience.

the body has it's own path too and if a brain can understand the path the body tries to walk, decisions can be made to help the body along which then lead to benefits for the entire organism.

i guess i am trying to say the potential for harmony within the organism exists despite so few people stumbling upon it. i guess the obstacle in reaching this state is the corruption process that seeks to consume everyone. those who can see the corruption in others have an easier time dodging it.

>I think what goes wrong here you are simply able to feel your body with your central nervous system, and somehow you anthropomorphise these sensations in a person which is not you, while you are simply feeling pain or pleasure, illness or health

what you dismiss as mere personification of the body rests upon the fact that i am basically software that is running my body. i am an operating system that runs the conscious voluntary part of this biological machine. you could replace me with the operating system of someone who lived 500 years ago and then it would not be me running this body, the body could function though.

however this perspective i am thus humoring assumes that i am not the ultimate best answer to the question "who should run this body, what should be his abilities, priorities" and i am wondering if i might be. i may have been grown to be the best possible operator of this machine because the consciousness of this machine (that you are in denial of) groomed me to address problems that occured in previous iterations of the machine. i have solved the problems that limited my father, i figgured stuff out by learning from him. he did the same, he improved upon what his father did. i suspect this process has been going for a while.

i have to go afk, i still wanted to adress the first part of your post.

>Organisms without a brain do not really seem conscious to me.

assuming you are correct and the body is not conscious then explain to me how the body knows when a good moment to poop is and when there isn't. when it is the worst time to poop, the body pauses until a better moment arrives. this is stuff the body is running in the background but it is running it so good that it can coordinate with your schedule. if now is a bad time to poop, your body understands that and my question is how. i assume it reads your emotions and the information you collect with your senses. does that not sufficiently represent a form of consciousness? your digestion knows what is happening in your life enough so it knows when to poop. do you know your digestion enough to know what to eat? because if you don't then i could argue your digestion not even IS conscious but is even MORE conscious then you are.


>I don't think plants, fungi, invertebrates think or have opinions.

i heard trees coordinate their airspace so that other trees are not in competition with each other for sun and rain. some say they communicate and share resources with each other. i have not looked into it too deeply but this is what i would expect of something that is alive and unable to move.

ants are an empire.

fungi have their own internet.


>Further animals with consciousness like cats, while they have consciousness are not intelligent and don't have any more complex thinking than "in this place I can find food" or "I like this human".

i think you are not privy to a lot of information that would lead you to believe otherwise. i think cat's live a crazy life, they are strong, dangerous with impressive movement ability and sense perception but they also have the worst digestive load. they have to digest flesh which requires strong acid and a lot of time. i am so thankful to have my digestion and not that of a cat.

>Your post reminds me of this untrue belief plants and flowers can feel things and are self-aware, while any significant consciousness starts at animals with a small brain like mice and birds.

I don't see how this post refutes my argument or advances your own.
When something goes wrong or well in your body your nerves connected to it create these pleasant or unpleasant sensations. You somehow claim there is something intelligent hidden behind hunger or pain while it's just blood sugar dropping, nerves picking this up, and sending this info to the more voluntary part of your nervous system.

>assuming you are correct and the body is not conscious then explain to me how the body knows when a good moment to poop is and when there isn't. when it is the worst time to poop,
My argument is that consciousness is strictly located in the central nervous system, which makes most of the body a non-conscious flesh slave to the brain. As for defecation there are tiny nerves wired up to the digestive system which monitor and control the entire pooping mechanism. If you damage the nerves but leave the bowels intact you get incontinence, loss of voluntary control of digestive functions while there is no pain, meanwhile if the digestive system is damaged but the nerves are intact you actually feel pain.
>i heard trees coordinate their airspace so that other trees are not in competition with each other for sun and rain.
I'm not saying it isn't alive, I'm saying these organisms are not-conscious. There is no "passenger" or soul stuck in a plant or fungus. Ancient Greek philosophers used to discuss which creatures had souls and which has not. Forming complex structures by itself is not exclusive to life, I wouldn't say mineral crystals communicate with each other because they compete for resources.
>i think cat's live a crazy life, they are strong, dangerous with impressive movement ability
Their life experience in the wild is characterised by struggling to hunt for food their entire life. Nothing like human beings which have language, abstraction, religion, complex social structures. Their primal animal "intelligence" which makes them remember where there is food or get sad when one of their kittens dies is nothing compared to a human's mental and emotional capabilities.

I know there’s nothing wrong with me. I’m perfect. I’m skinny, kind, and thoughtful. But the isolation from everyone around me has been getting to me. Nobody has ever put effort into me. I changed my style just to receive barely any compliments, then proceeded to get ignored by everyone. No whore has ever thought of me as a man. They’re gross creatures who look at me and think I’m homosexual. I’m not. Just because I look like a slut doesn’t mean I am one. Then I am being secluded for not being manly enough. other male seems to think of me as one of them either, shouldn’t I be given respect from my fellow peers and colleagues?

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.

Security is actually not a bad gig for your typical wizzie and it can very rewarding, but you do need to get lucky with finding the right job I feel. Yea, you can probably just accept the first security job you come across if you're really desperate, but it might consist of you being forced to stand on your feet the entirety of your shift in some retail store or public facing venue dealing with NPC normies all day who want to fight you and cause trouble, and it would drain your wiz-battery pack quickly and then you would end up hating it. Here's some wiz-tips for finding an ideal security job:

1) Don't just accept just any security gig that you're offered, always try to ask around to find out exactly what the job consists of. It'll also depend on the security company you apply to, some of them will be clear and upfront with you about the job requirements as well as the locations you'll be working at, while others will be very evasive because they just need to fill the post and don't really care much about their workers. I would recommend avoiding those type of places. A decent security company will be upfront with you about their expectations as well as the work environment. At the same time you can't be a floor mat yourself and just accept whatever job post you're offered, if you don't think you'll like working at a job site - don't accept it.

2) Try to do some research on the security company that you're applying to and what kind of sites they staff, for example some of them will focus exclusively on public facing venues like security at concerts, retail stores, normie social events, and if you're just looking for some easy sit down on your butt do-nothing jobs, then you'll obviously probably want to avoid those. Try to get some previous employee feedback about the company that you're applying to, you can google the employer and their reviews and read what previous employees said about working there, whether if it's a good place or not. An ideal wizzie security job is one where you'll be mostly working by yourself, isolated from the general public and your duties mostly consisting of sitting down, occasionally doing some patrol rounds or watching the CCTV cameras on a monitor. Places like industrial areas, warehouses, after-hours medical facilities, etc. when all the normies are gone, etc. those can be good environments to work at.Post too long.

Landed a machinery maintenance job In a factory about a year ago.
Was incredibly hard at first and thought about quitting multiple times, somehow I managed to survive.

This shit is still hard to me as I'm not handy at all, and most of the time i don't know what the fuck I'm doing, specially now that I'm alone at my shift. Some days I don't know how to pass the time and others I don't even have time to eat. The only upside is that's a job in high demand (basically every company is short staffed because they literally can't find anyone), and once all the genX retire it's gonna be in even higher demand because very few millennials took this career path. I highly doubt Ai or thirdies will take this job.

I feel so bad for the nice hot meal I cooked having to go immediately in to the cold fridge for tomorrow's lunch. I also feel bad for myself for having to go to work. At least I will have a nice, albeit cold, lunch to eat. Wizards love to put in a little effort today to make tomorrow's slavery a little easier. I hope that if I fall off the scaffolding and die, It happens after I have enjoyed my lunch.

Creatine Monohydrate should be supplemented because to get a full working dose one would need to eat an entire chicken dinner's worth of beef. It's vital in the human body's functions that relate to not being unhealthy. I've been taking it for years and I'm very strong and smart and large.

>>307661
That seems like a lot to take in but many men's health support supplements cover much of that in two doses. Ideally much of this shouldn't be supplemented but rather acquired through an actual balanced diet, but that would probably give a caloric surplus for the average NEET.

Might just be one of the myriad of things from health issues to shit life syndrome, but I've been thinking maybe my small living space is affecting me.

Still live "at home" in a flat with my mom at 30, my room is 2.5m x 5m so 12.5 square meters. (134.549 ft²american)
With all the furniture I have a usable space of about 0.8m x 3m maybe, so less than 3sqm. (25.833 ft²)
Spend all day sitting at my desk anyways so whatever.

Been wondering if maybe this tiny space is part of the reason why I just don't do anything.

Every animal on Earth feels this way. Cooped up, stir-crazy… It's a widely accepted fact that being closely surrounded by the same scenery all day has negative effects on the psyche. For decades now office and learning spaces have been designed to mitigate these effects of feeling enclosed. A human sitting tightly in his small cave is not a human who will eat, rest, or grow well that night. He must go out and hunt, stretch his legs, and keep himself reminded that the world still exists. To be frustrated in confinement is human. Those who relish in it can be picked apart, but you're not one of those people so why bother?

Even just changing up the arrangement of your furniture can be enough to buy you some comfort. Downscaling your possessions, moving things to storage, or clearing up floor space by moving some items to high wall shelves could help. Above all it's important to go for a walk a few times per week. Open the window. Give the walls two bright coats of paint. Install a plant. If there are rats, throw them at your mother.

I was rereading the original run of The Avengers to keep boredom at bay, and yet again I'm impressed by John Buscema's artwork. I checked his wiki page and there's this passage in there:
"Buscema's passion for drawing was such that he continued to draw and sketch in his spare time, often on the back of comic book art pages, and these images form a considerable body of work in their own right. His brother Sal Buscema recalled,

This guy used to eat, sleep and breathe drawing. It didn't matter what was going on around him. He would get bored with it and start sketching. … He just couldn't stop drawing. [His back-of-board sketches were] better than some of the stuff that he did on the front. … He'd get a spark of inspiration and turn the page over and draw whatever was in his skull"

How nice it must be to have such passion and drive for something.

How do you genuinely just stop caring about everything shitty in your life? I just want to become numb to it all. People always say you shouldn't, but whenever I let myself feel any small amount of happiness the feeling of sadness/depression that I'll inevitably feel later is so painful it makes me wish I just didn't feel anything at all in the first place. Meditation has gotten close to this and I like the peace it gives me but I wish I felt that peace all the time.

I feel like if you're poor at one point or other you have to contend with realities of life, you slowly do, like as a kid I used to draw a mountains, rivers, hut, with me and my future wife.

Overtime, as I hit puberty, I realised, that I am an involuntary celibate, and my wife is limited to animated Disney movies, that hurt me a lot, to the point that I just constantly went around internet posting drivel about succubi and how they are heartless and lie about personality. And I was really hurt, while I still believe that, I am no longer hurt cause I don't care about them.

Same goes for being a child, as a child I was growing up thinking that I will one day own a Red Mclaren with Golden Stripes, I grew up a bit more, and I thought that Audis were cool when I reached Middle-School, in the non major metro parts of my crapholenation that was a rare sighting.

Then I came into High School and I thought man, Camry is really cool. I grew up a bit more in college, where I thought, a second-hand Corolla will be a dream come true. And of course, at this point, I am looking at what's in your currency 250USD used mopeds, about 7 years old, second-hand, pre-abused.

Sometimes, you have to do nothing but settle, maybe commies are right, when they say you are a capitalist because you dream of becoming a millionaire. I always thought it was baloney, but I was so upset that the Lexus LS was discontinued in my country, and I thought about it, I was dreaming to own a Lexus when in reality, I can't afford to move out of my parents' house.

I never got or was able to earn money to fulfil my wishes, I coped with not having a car by looking at constant reviews of cars on YouTube. Delusion is very necessary for someone like me to live, I spend consciously 5 hours of my day, day-dreaming, maladaptively, of course. About how I have a fixed life, how everything is fine and dandy and I am driving into a sunset. Cope is the fuel of heart, because reality is too brutal, too hopeless, too life-sapping.

You will be poor, you will be broke, you will eventually daydream, you will be happy.

>emote executables you could launch with JavaScript
You need to have those executables on your system, the script on the browser needs to know their exact path, and all modern browsers ask you to confirm before a script on the page can communicate with something on your system. If those executables communicate with the internet they need to have Windows give them a firewall entry which is asked upon the first time they're launched.
>You gotta bend over and let your privacy be fucked

The day of Armageddon has inched towards me in just 2 hours. I completed a worthless degree in IT, by completed, I mean gave the final exams of the final semester just 2 hours ago, and I returned home, which is in a third world country. And the results are as I expected, as a matter of fact, when I came back I could literally feel the tension inside my house mounting.

I was expecting one day or another, for this to happen but it's surreal how quickly it has happened, my parents had a massively heated argument with me, and honestly, it took me a few years back when my parents used to abuse the hell out of me, I can for some reason, literally feel the terror of abuse in the lower half of my spine and in my kidneys.

The question is obvious, which is what will I do next? Because I am about to graduate completely unemployed, in this little third world country, and of course the parents aren't happy, as it is in the nature of everyone maybe mine as well to be pissed seeing a man wake up at 9AM and ask for breakfast, and take it back to the Air Conditioned room, the resentment is off the charts for obvious reason of what my parents would consider "stealing" from them because I am not paying back in any meaningful labour, seems like I will have to wake up at 6AM in the morning tomorrow and not use Air Conditioner at all.

It was honestly, a massive argument, I just few hours ago got back to my house from a scorching 42C temperature and now I am being cooked internally. At this point, I have started to prepare for the worst, any day in "my" house could be my last, I am trying to gather all the IDs, gather all the documents for eventual kick, and a kick in a country like this is extremely close to death. Certainly slightly different from other countries where you can live in your car, given that in this country the car ownership rate is 8%. So there goes living in a Honda Fit out of the Window.

I must get a job, I have tried getting a job online, from microtasks, to annotation for OneForma, to trying to act like an agent for PornStars online, to chat on their behalf, and I have earned no more and no less than 0 in any currency of this planet. The jig is coming to an end. While I am not familiar with the thoughts of life in the Christian Theology because I wasn't born in a Christian Family, but my Judgement, rather Execution is near.

Are there no local labor jobs that just involve shoveling dirt? Even in developed nations, fresh graduates of oversaturated degrees such as IT still need to work menial labor and service jobs until they land one related to their degree. You've done the responsible thing by preparing for the boot, but a crappy labor job would not only give you money to save but also get you out of your parents' hair. Just keep telling them that once you land a good job you'll pay all of their bills (lie).

Nope, a crappy labour job here, I hate to say this would make absolutely no dent at all in my finances. However, I am looking at other jobs which don't require degrees. Like in surveillance and everything. But here's the catch with them because employes know for a fact that anyone who will do 13 hour shifts of patrolling in heat under the sun (currently the top 50 hottest cities in the world are in my country) would like to leave job as soon as they can if they get another one, so we have something called bond period and that too in the north of 3 years, where if you quit before 3 years you will have to pay 6 months' salary to the company. I am still looking at them as the worst case option while applying "aggressively" (as my LLM would say it) for beginner roles in IT. And I do think being here in my parents' house for a while is prudent as to gather all the resources that I can.

But I have to say it should have been obvious to me and maybe it always was but it seems like I, or, men, or maybe all hoomans don't really have any inherent value and must earn just to have a right to some dignity.

Do you think we will ever have a breakthrough moment of mass adoption of robotics like we did with smartphones, computers, AI, cars?
Like the beginning of a new era where all kind of robots are embedded in every facet of society? I don't think a lot of people could imagine today back in the 50s or 60s.
Then again the tech might just stay at it's current level for decades.
Maybe the cost is just too high, mass adoption of smartphones only became possible when very cheap low-power computing became the norm.
I don't see robotics hardware dramatically dropping in price anytime soon. Maybe we'll see some attempts in the future to lower the price by mass production and standardisation, but then there have to be cheap makers and sufficient demand of robots too.
Anyway everyday tech did not have any dramatic breakthroughs since the mass adoption of smartphones.

happy new year and all of that.

treat yourself to some sesame paste if you never head any. i regret learning about this so late, i can't help but want to warn others on not missing out on this goodness. it is just one ingredient crushed industrially into paste: sesame seeds.

when you buy it in the store it is separated and the separation is strong. when you stick a spoon in and try to stir, the bottom is so strong that the spoon can not stir. and you have to shake it and keep it in a shook state.

the sesame paste hides behind a bit of effort but the reward is worth the extra work.

the taste is amazing. mild and nutty. the nice thing about this is that it has a high fat content but it is not as impossible to digest as oil is. it still has it's fiber.

i use this to make sauces without oil. i just put tomatos and herbs into a blender and then i add a few tablespoons of this stuff and it turns into a nice creamy sauce but a sauce that the human organism has the chance to actually digest reasonably.

this stuff is so good, i wonder why it is not sold in regular supermarkets, i bother to go to the muslim markets just to get this goodness.

if humans weren't addicted to live above their means, they wouldn't have to enslave all the other creatures.

domestication of the dog i believe to be another mistake. dogs have ruined humans, made them boring and industrious team players like they are. riding horses was also a mistake.

>Then our belief systems changed with it, from living in some form of forced-harmony (due to a lack of influence over our environment) to nature and its residents being part of our dominion. And from there on we just got better and better at exploiting and ravaging the natural world, dividing it into what is useful to us and what can be exterminated.

economical thinking (which is just a collective form of living above the means) created a system that rewards the utility maximizers, which i believe the world would be much better without.

That's how I saw this for a long time as well but I heard someone explain this "metacrisis" as a bunch of prisoner's dilemmas / multipolar traps essentially. Let's say people like us are a tribe and we do our best to live simply and in as much harmony with nature as we can manage, so maybe hunter-gatherer plus what little agri/horticulture can be managed without animal husbandry. As soon as any other tribe begins to engage in agriculture and so on, they will radically increase their population, manage to specialize, increase their offensive technology and so on. Basically everyone else now is forced to also engage in these actions if they want to survive against this other tribe. Of course this leads to a race to the bottom type dynamic where the state of the whole gets much worse due to the increasing burden on the natural world, conflict between tribes and so on, yet nobody feels like they can afford to not use these new technologies, otherwise they will get destroyed by those that do. And dynamic applies in all aspects of life and the ratchet-effect-worsening of things year after year.
The issue is that those people who want such power and are good at acquiring it are usually the kinds of psycho- and sociopaths who should least have it, yet they are the ones driving the larger changes in the system due to the mechanism above.

Like you I try to do small acts of intentionally limiting myself, consciously going against this constant propaganda to consume more, be more comfortable, not think about any of these issues and so on. I'm quitting coffee for instance, since I don't live in a place where it grows naturally and habitually drinking something that requires multi-continental supply chains is no longer something I want to engage in, no matter how normalized it is in industrialized nations. I'm doing similar things with the rest of my diet as well.

yeah this is why we can't have nice things, maybe this would change once people realize that every form of technology is automatically a weapon but this would require responsibility and responsibility is the thing people built weapons for in order to avoid it.

race to the bottom sounds like an awesome name for a band or a podcast.

it is quite difficult to carve out a little space to survive while the race is happening indeed. when keeping in mind what you just succeeded in expressing, everything that is worth capturing will eventually be part of the corrupting efforts of competing groups which is why human progress can only happen in the realm of maximum insignificance. as soon as you get popular, some group tries to turn you into fodder for the cannon. the difficulty of the age in which people refuse to understand that competition is the problem (and not the solution) is to remain underneath the threshold of detection as to avoid otherwise inevitable corruption.

>And dynamic applies in all aspects of life and the ratchet-effect-worsening of things year after year.

it is quite challenging trying to keep up with the rate at which things are enshittifying through self-sufficiency but what else is there.

sometimes i wonder about the power of it- is it from the retention itself (like chi or life force) or is it more of the act of discipline, like training yourself to hold your breath, you become more efficient at using oxygen in your body, you train past the pain (with sex the 'pain' would be that 'itch' drive force that produces urges etc)

Curious how practicitoners here utilize the practice. Do you have any conscious practice around it?

I don't believe in chi or vitalistic ideas and all that stuff because I experiment with what I believe maybe and it seems to be hypnosis, beliefs, and mild altered states of consciousness.
Kinda materialistic approach if you see it like that way.
Maybe nofap, abstinence, and holding back make you more susceptible to suggestions/hypnosis.
Or maybe it opens you up to some kind of magic, I don't know, I have no idea.
Maybe it change something in your head, neurochemicals, i dont know, or maybe its just for discipline or sex control.
>Also
Right now I'm trying the 50-day challenge just to see what it's like. I did it last year, but I never actually had orgasms I just fapped without it. Basically, I was just “gooning” (I think Genesis P-Orridge recommended this method in one of his books or something lol), although there are several authors who replace the no fap no sex with something else that's just as bizarre in its own right related to sexual activity.

No, the gooning tech like p o-rridge maybe suggested is just fap without orgasm climax for 50 days or more.
The eroto-comosatose was more into total stimuly of all the senses, never tried it. But i remember reading somewhere that use abstinense to enchance pleasure sense.
>how long were your sessions and did you reach an altered state of consciousness with them?
I know its not the topic of the answer but sometimes i got a lot of focus and visualization just by focusing and feign having sex in my head in my bed. It even enchanced orgasm feeling so maybe the thing of visualization and acting was into it.
In a way is like playing before sex for succubus maybe. The focus exchance the orgasm and pleasure maybe.
In the Tibet the buddhist do something similar but with deities and visual power.

Guys, i was reading, i asked a AI about Semen-retention around 50 days (not Nofap, just semen-retention but same) around neurochemicals and brain etc and the AI cited me interesting articles that i lost now but look like nofap in a way enchance suggestionability based in a production of a neurochemical in head (ignoring the other good effects of taking a good healthy routine in 50 days) in the 50 days
>in 7 days get the peak testoterone (i tested this and i can confirm its true for my experience)

>after 7 maybe, the testoterone to the in a way middle or like Regression toward the mean

>after 14 or 17 days supposed get a light change in brain

>but after 50 days something change in a way reset and some neurochemical improves suggestibility

So… ignoring the Gooning Magical technique or the nofap technique for more pleasure later or even placebos and beliefs/bias, maybe the old pagan Greek philosopher, Chinese taoist/daoist, Roman philosophers, Vitalist, Victorian mages like Papus (this guys say this is the first thing to magic but 40 or 48 days i dont remember), Aleister Crowley and maybe Golden Dawn around abstinence, and Robert Anton Wilson around the secret of sex magic of 50 days in sexual abstinence and other modern ceremonial magicians etc maybe that's the secret
>what?
improves suggestibility based in reset of the brain and production of a neurochemical that improves suggestibility to self-hypnosis or rituals, like RAW book around sexual imprinting we are making a new opportunity to imprint one of the circuits? who knows? like a pavlov dog or a peak or trauma experience?
Maybe the AI have bias or i go full schizo but why no try? maybe its just a placebo but why not try?
>Also
Yeah, this is probably pseudoscience, but as I recall, the AI cited studies mentioned humans and the chemistry of sex, masturbation, and addictions, as well as animal experiments—which doesn’t exactly make it very credible but I still think there’s something odd about ceremonial magicians placing so much emphasis on 40, 48, or 50 days of sexual abstinence. anyone know same practice and days in chinese or oriental magesPost too long.

Only at level 30 so far. Wish I could slowly come to terms with the end like >>307521 mentions buddhism, but time and deaths closeness just drives my anxiety further.

I'll be honest and say one of the worst aspects of this is that there isn't anyone I can consider a nemesis or evildoer to avenge my lot or something.
Nobody to hate, can't even hate myself really. I consider myself a victim obviously, however lame and loserlike that is. Well I'm a loser so hey… it's in character.

Really though? I was already set on this path by the time I had any real "free will" or even cognition.
Ironically my first 4 memories are in order (all at age 2-3), me drowning, grandma dying, starving at home alone because my father wouldn't feed me and getting the shit beat out of me.
Further formative experiences ensued of course.

I can not say I appreciate your honesty. I wish mods would just ban or at least warn posters like this.
