Recently I feel like the large corporations that run everything have really been dropping the ball. The end user experience for shopping at walmart of Amazon or wherever used to be almost flawless and you could understand how they got to be practical oligopolies. Today though? The experience is so amazingly shit. You can tell none of these corporations gives a shit about the day to day. They have some apps managing everything and they just punish the slaves when some app tells them to. It is such a lazy form of decay.


Anyone else noticing this? Almost across the board in every realm of life it seems like the system is more full of bugs and random failures. Everything works just barely well enough to still keep functioning but at the same time it's decaying and degrading. I think there's not enough actual competition anymore in society. All the power structures are set and all the lowest worms in society have wriggled their way to the top of them.

Well, we live in an overpopulated world so low quality is a consequence of mantaining billions of people.
If corporations had barely enough customers to sustain themselves they would put effort in what they do.
Decades ago you were lucky if you owned a car, now the poorest immigrant owns multiple smartphones.
Humans are considered cattle by companies today malpractice is the standard and warranty is a joke.

This is a deeply flawed take. It's not the number of people in society that is a problem, it's a lack of competition. Businesses in a competitive environment literally do have barely enough customers to sustain themselves. It's optimal for a company to grow to the point that it can't grow anymore due to lack of customers. There can be only 1000 people in society but if there is only one store then will it have just barely enough customers to sustain itself and try hard? No obviously not. It will only try hard if there is another store it has to compete with for customers.

Everything that is happening right now to our economy/society is basically what they told me would happen in econ 101 when monopolies start to form. The whole egg price increase was found to be down to price fixing by the major players in the market. They just used bird flu as a way to sell it to the public. If you look at actual production numbers, they were producing the same as always. There are more examples of price gouging in the wake of covid when companies used that as an excuse. Some of it was due to real supply shocks, but we know how much was thanks to economists doing studies and more of it was due to corporation price gouging than it was actual supply and demand. This is only possible in a market lacking in real competition.

People think we have more competition than we actually do but most of the companies people think are companies are actually just brands and are subsidiaries to larger corporations. It's wild just how few companies own stuff like our media, and mergers are still happening. Just look at paramount acquiring warner brothers.

Oh and just to add to this, China has overtaken the west in terms of technology when it comes to car manufacturing despite being way behind not very long ago. They did this by creating an insane level of competition. There were literally thousands of car companies and most of them failed and burned into ash. They can produce cars for a third of what they cost in the west. They did all that with almost 1.5 billion people. So clearly the number of people is not the important factor here.

Should I take the Catholic pill?

They seem to genuinely respect Wizards and have a tradition of hermits. Their priests are a celibate ruling class.

I didn't grow up around Christians but it seems like the difference between them and other Christians is that they're the original church together with the lesser known Orthodox Church.

I don't get all the rules they have though. You shall attend Mass on Sundays and holy days of obligation and rest from servile labor. You shall confess your sins at least once a year. You shall receive the sacrament of the Eucharist at least during the Easter season. You shall observe the days of fasting and abstinence established by the Church. You shall help to provide for the needs of the Church, each according to his or her own ability.

I'm overwhelmed. I get why people just go with the DIY protestant approach but it seems like if the Catholics are one of the original churches Jesus said was legit then it's a safer bet.

Look I don't get how there can be a miracle like resurrection either and frankly all the Abrahamic religious miracles seem really underwhelming compared to the wild stories of Hindu gods. But so many people believe in Christianity from a Pascal's wager perspective it seems like I might as well consider it.

At least it'll make me feel like I'm less LARPing some fantasy wizard and instead I'll seem like a faithful religious hermit which gets more respect points

>COVID was a jewish depopulation
Call me crazy, but I think that was not the case. It was merely a compliance test to see how many goyim are actually willing to obey them in this retardation and how many of them are unreliable, plus a plethora of other goals to achieve. But not the culling. Not yet.
They roll out a mysterius substance, 'leak' videos with people fainting and even dying from injecting the substance, thus saying to the masses 'It's a bunch of crap that is likely to kill or harm you'. Those who injected it despite the risks are reliable, good goyim cattle, those who reject it despite the immense pressure, are unreliable. The goal was statistics, setting a precedent for future control, preparing for a next pandemic that will actually kill people en masse.
Since those who didn't buy propaganda and didn't inject it will not inject anything in the future as well, they will die should 'the elites' roll out something drastic and dangreous. Those who are trusting the jews will happily inject themselves and survive, those who don't - won't do it and die. Artificial eugenics, selecting for the ultimate serfs.
At least that's what I see in it. Maybe I am wrong. Hopefully. I didn't inject this shit and won't do it no matter what. Either way, this world awaits mass death. Buuuut it's Hitler who was a baddie!!!!11111111111 Good goys won WW2!111111 REEEEE

I had that thought, way in the beginning, that maybe it's an engineered virus that escaped a lab, the elites testing a virus perhaps realising they may not have total control or something to that effect. I'm 50/50 on whether it was, because I do remember a preamble when it was just the "chinese virus" and that it was nothing to worry about while certain groups and people were selling off shares that would be negatively affected by pandemic among other things.

I got summoned to jury duty. I am depressed and socially anxious, probably have avoidant personality disorder. It is asking me if I have a disability that prevents me from completing jury duty and I honestly don't know how to answer that. If I couldn't handle college and I can't handle employment because I'm too mentally ill, why would jury duty be any different? I kind of feel like it would be possible just unpleasant, but then I also wonder if I can physically force myself to show up and that I'm less sure of.

I have to ask my doctor to tell them I'm disabled though and then that would be weird. How are you supposed to know if you just have mental illness or if you are disabled by that mental illness?

 No.306063

>How are you supposed to know if you just have mental illness or if you are disabled by that mental illness?
If you're cognizant enough to ask this, then you're very likely not mentally ill. The entire prospect of 'mental illness' is not being able to introspect and be concerned with ideas related to your own capability or the consequences of being placed in an uncomfortable situation. You can try to claim some sort of social disorder such as social anxiety, but that's a learned disorder not inherent to some sort of physical ailment of the brain, so the government might not care. Don't fall for the "I'm forever helplessly mentally ill because I don't particularly enjoy being in crowded places" ruse. By all means fake it to get out of jury duty, but don't willingly lower your own expectations of yourself because some memelords online have convinced you that you're braindead in spite of you proving yourself able to communicate functionally.

Never go to the psych ward or be blatantly honest with a therapist. These people are quick to deem you mentally adjudicated (incompetent) and will fuck you over for life.

Just because society socially ostracizes you doesn't mean you're mentally ill necessarily; it's a negative feedback loop.

All they'll do is gaslight you and project onto you. If you do need to seek out help from them, attempt to be as relatively neurotypical and politically correct in a nuanced way as possible, and pretend that their shit advice is somehow a groundbreaking revelation of self-awareness.

Never look for psychiatric help, expecially as an addict. It was the worst mistake I ever made in my life. I got addicted to ultra high doses of xanax 8-10x over maximum, and when I tried to get help, instead of tapering me which is what they do in every civilized country, they took me from 30 to 0 in a day. I had stroke symptoms, 60/40 bpm, i was teleporting in real life, i couldnt talk think or know what day it is, function or do anything. I spent 3 days falling on my knees under the doctor's office in the psychiatric hospital and got treated like an annoying fly. I wanted to call an ambulance to take me out of there, i called an ambulance on myself because I thought I had a stroke when I ran away out of my drugs, but nobody ever checked nor was interested in anything. My doctor was an ukrainian piece of shit that treated me like shit under his shoe. After 12 days in psychiatric prison i barely escaped by pretending to get better, and spent 3 weeks in a psychosis despite taking antipsychotics and antiseizure meds, i felt 24/7 heart attack, stroke and epilepsy symptoms. I also lost feeling in my body, i had visual, auditory, time perception problems, became and invalid that couldnt move or pick up a paper, eat, swallow, feeel thirst, pee, lost ability to control my muscles. If i took a bath i would swallow all the water and not feel it, i hit my head on everything and didnt even feel it, i could punch walls and not feel if i broke my bones. When I went to a private psychiatrist to get help, she saw me and said she doesn't deal with this and kicked me out the door after 30 seconds without letting me explain a single thing. I lost my mind, it has been completely destroyed and ruined to the point there's nothing left. After 5 weeks of this treatment and choking on water I thought i'll die anyway so I went back to my drugs and after taking 1 pill I got a better remission and improvement than over a month of their psychiatric treatment. I could actually feel things and i wanted to cry from happiness. But it was all temporary, and in the end i went back to my old habits, but now, they ruined it so that I get every single side effect from the drug that I never had before despite taking the same amount for a year straight. My physical health has also completely collapsed, I was unable to take a bath for a month, shave, eat, think, time moved 100x times slower and I experienced hell on earth worse than being torturted alive with worst cia methods.

Lolicon is a highly controversial subgenre within anime and manga that centers on the sexualized depiction of young or young-looking fictional characters. The term is derived from “Lolita complex,” which itself traces back to Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov, though the original novel explores very different literary and psychological themes. Discussions around lolicon often revolve around the tension between fiction and real-world ethics. Some people argue that because the characters are fictional and no real children are involved, it falls under artistic expression and freedom of fantasy. Others strongly disagree, expressing concern that sexualizing childlike imagery, even in drawn form, can normalize harmful attitudes or blur moral boundaries. Legal approaches vary widely depending on jurisdiction, with some countries regulating explicit drawn depictions and others focusing strictly on material involving real minors.

Culturally, lolicon exists within broader debates about censorship, artistic liberty, and the social impact of media. In parts of Japan’s niche otaku culture, certain stylized or exaggerated character archetypes developed within specific subcultures, though acceptance is far from universal even there. In Western societies, the subject often generates intense criticism and emotional responses, reflecting different cultural norms about sexuality and protection of minors. Conversations about lolicon frequently expand into larger philosophical questions about whether fictional media can influence real behavior, how societies should define harm, and where the line should be drawn between personal freedom and safeguarding vulnerable groups.

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.

Auditory hallucinations kind of voices or endless inner monologues kind of voices? It's not my field, just kinda learned a factoid recently: "auditory hallucinations happen in 4 out of 5 SCH havers".

I'm pretty lucky I'm such a total lightweight. Liqour is prohibitly expensive due to taxes but I'm able to get properly drunk on beer, doesn't even take a lot. It's probably in large part due to weighing only 57KG (180 cm tall). I just skip meals by sleeping 14 hours a day.
Anyways, I strongly recommend homebrewing. Super cheap to get into and you're able to get ~15% abv drink and get wasted for a dollar or two (less than a dollar for me).

MEDITATE
Wizzies, meditation is highly famous but seldom practiced seriously. The results from meditation takes time. It's like exercise. During the first day it will be hard to stay still and concentrate, but as you practice it, your body and mind start getting used to it. The benefits are immense. To mention a few:
>it improves concentration a lot
>it quiet your inner monologue, reducing it to 96% or even 100% depending on how well you are praticing it
>it increases the size of your pre-frontal-cortex which is responsible for making decisions
>increases gaba, which is the chemical that makes you calm
>it sharpens your sense making colors look brighter and sounds sound more vivid
>it gives you insights
>it makes you live in the present moment, since you are not ruminating the past or thinking about the future
>it reduces anxiety

And if you want to make it more meaningful, I advise practicing Buddhist teachings, even if you don't indetify as a Buddhist (that's irrelevant). You can still continue being a Christian and still follow Buddha's teachings for a happier and sober life.

I speak from experience. I've been meditating for 5 months almost everyday and now I'm starting to reap the fruits of my efforts. If I could dedicate my life 100% to spirituality and become a monk, I would, but where I live there's barely any monasteries. I don't mind though. I'm happy. I could be happy anywhere as long as I could practice meditation and the teachings of the great Buddha.

Just do it. Do it today or tonight. If silence is a problem, put on a whine noise sound on your headphones (I do that). Do it for 20 minutes. If it's too hard for you, reduce it to 10, but no less. You first session is always special. You will get out of there thinking: "what the hell, this shit really works".

Good luck, guys!

I like to sometimes listen to sad music and have a good cry. It feels cathartic. When I search for sad songs understandably a lot of the recommendations are songs about heartbreak which I can't relate with and I feel like there is too much focus on lyrics only and not the overall mood of the song.

For me this is my favorite because the overall mood is very melacholic and the vagueness of the lyrics, like the trick psychics use, lets you apply them to your personal situation For me for example:

Oh
1.Can't anybody see
2.We've got a war to fight
3.Never find our way
4.Regardless of what they say

1.I see myself in being isolated so no one sees what I am going through
2.being at "war" with myself, feeling like everything takes so much effort
3.not fitting in society, not finding a path in life
4.people saying "it gets better", "you will find your path eventually", "you will know once you get older" etc.

"I got nobody on my side
And surely that ain't right"

Again very relatable the feeling of being all alone and no one truly understand you.

Finding a song you can emotionally relate to is obviously something personal so I am not expecting someone to relate to my experience and I am not asking anyone to post an "objectively" sad song. You also don't have to analyze or relate to the lyrics. Just share songs that you personally connected with.

this whole album really. paradoxically it's my go-to depression album but it's also the kind of album where if it's speaking to you, that's a major red flag and a sign you're not okay. Manson wrote it at his absolute lowest point of self-destruction and self-loathing, ideas that he flirted with earlier in his career in the 90s but didn't truly experience/live out until this point. he's described it as being (paraphrasing) "so low that when I look up all I see is shit, that's how low I am" – one of the songs even has the line "I have to look up, just to see Hell". it's one of the least popular albums of his discography and part of that is that most people who listen to it aren't in the same state of mind and can't really understand what he's talking about or trying to convey through the music. that's also a fair criticism to levy because most artists are capable of translating their emotions/feelings like this in a more universal way to where even if you didn't go through the same thing they did you could still feel the same thing. over the years listening to it i think Manson was just so low (and the periods i was so low i could finally not just hear but understand what he was talking about) and trying to capture that specific feeling he didn't care if people got it or not. it probably would have been more critically received if he had done that, but he was creating art, not so much a product, he was trying to convey how he felt, he didn't care how well the album charted or what music critics thought of it.

Every time I think of death, the end of my self I can feel my brain fighting it, pretty much actively trying to shut down.
It's a weird sinking feeling, thinking of the unimaginable.
People have died around me and I felt nothing, but then again I'm not an overly emotive or emotional person.

I still can't cope with death as a concept. I don't want to cease experiencing. I'd genuinely prefer hell to oblivion.

I screwed myself, my health because of a lack of attachments and care for things in general and I'm at the age where recovery is getting harder even if I try.
Mitigation is a more realistic goal if I don't already have something terminal, hopefully. (29)

How do you guys cope? I see so many people here talking about suicide and I just can't fathom it.
I suffer from many chronic ailments, pain, tinnitus (really severe) and much else. I had many absolutely horrid experiences during childhood and youth.
I have no real connection to my broken family, no connection to pretty much anyone or anything. Never loved or felt loved by anyone, not even family.
I don't pursue hobbies I'm a man of inaction. I can't even force myself to do things I supposedly enjoy.
I have one friend I talk to online exclusively in text and meaningless time wasting activities, consuming media, manga/manhua mostly.

It's a pointless life. Wasted.

Based on all of this I should probably be suicidal, but I'm the opposite. I'd be content being a specter just observing things too. I just want to persist.
I don't want this to end, I don't want to end.
I'm terrified. Sure I'm sick, in pain, constantly depressed or anxious, generally a failure, but I don't want to be gone.

I'm a Christian and I don't get why you connect my view with buddhism and paganism. St Aquinas describes the souls of evil people as wanting nothing more than meaningless torment even saying the tears they shed in Hell is because they can no longer torment good people.
This judgement by Christ is still involuntary and permanent and could be seen as punishment by some people.

Back when I was 14 or so, I had a following idea: consciousness halts at the moments of your death, but if you cannot remember your dream because you dont wake up, there is no dream then. So the last thing you feel is the feeling that stays with you. Forever.


Death row convicted people have it easier than anyone else, drugged into not feeling a thing and such.

I reduce it to numbers. I really shouldn't, quality of life should be the goal even if I die this week. I guess the thought is having thousands (or maybe 10's of thousands) of days left on the planet is plenty of time to see interesting things and challenge the mind.

I'm Failed Low Tier Normie (3.5 PSL Rating), utterly autistic, haven't had friends for a decade by now (I'm just 20), can't function in any way (work-related, socially or even just within my family; I'm even too scared to talk to my biological dad or e.g my grandmother when she comes here) and every day I feel more and more angry that I have to bear this existence every second I'm alive. I can't even simply laugh at things, I'm just a manchild chud who can't be entertained and who doesn't have motivation to do anything. It's like I've been already dead for a long time now but I'm still haunted by my consciousness. I just don't have the courage to end it. I feel like a lot of you experience the same, why haven't you specifically done it?

Not fitting into society brings a lot of practical problems with it which can be intolerable. If you can NEET it up and somewhat insolate yourself from other people, you can be fine, but you will be reminded every time you go outside that you have a target on your back and you will be surprised to see that literal strangers will go out of their way to bully you for no reason. Getting a job or moving up is impossible because your apparent Otherness is so obvious to other people that they will either consciously or subconsciously aim to put you down in your place and not allow you to exist in peace.

Make no mistake, alienation can be quite intolerable. It's not an abstraction, it's very much real. The hivemind can detect you and you will have problems having any kind of life at all.

Does any of you get irritated with family gatherings or when guests come to visit you in your family's house?
I am 24 years old, little to not school education, no job, whenever I am with some relatives or in some family gathering I can sense how much they look down at me for being a massive loser, even if they almost never express it directly at all, since I was a child I would always be asked by them questions like "how are you doing in school?" or "are you getting any good grades" Of course they no longer ask me such question, But I still feel a lot of shame when I am around them, I try to avoid sitting with them like the plague

I'm a NEET so I have to continue living with my parents. I'm a turbomanlet at 165cm and having to attend the social outings in the last few years have been painful. I spend ninety-nine percent of my life in my room, but the times I do go out I witness the world I was supposed to be a part of. If I had to do that every day, I would kill myself which I think is known because I'm not pressured too much into getting a job.
It never gets easier on my psyche knowing everything was stolen from me because of something as simple as growth hormone. I wish, I really do wish, that I could blame my failure on my own mistakes - it would indicate that I had enough control over my life at some point. Instead, my entire life is a show theatre.
I teeter between feeling nothing at all, and feeling complete revulsion and anger at my abhorrent unnatural state.

I know exactly how you feel and I know what the cause is for me: inflammation. My whole body remained in an inflamed state from eating plant matter and carbs for years in the past, preventing me from growing, being healthy, being happy. I lost 7-8 years of my adolesence doing things I could've stopped. I could've eaten better. I could've said no. I was 166cm aswell for several years but I'm 169cm now after making some improvements, but I feel that it's all too late. I'm 23 years old.

The past was an act of robbery against me, I know everything that I lost, all my dreams, my time, the happiness, the opportunities, they are all gone permanently. There is nothing that can be done to compensate for them, nothing that can be done to replace them. I suffered emotional distress and pain from abusers, on top of poor habits built from the kind of environment I was forced to exist in, just to lose the most crucial opportunities forever. I'm angry, I'm angry at my family for giving me garbage to eat and abusing my metabolism, I'm angry at myself for being so weak, I'm angry for being poor. I'm angry.

I hated NEET life so much, to the point I somewhat prefer being a full time wagie. After 18 my parents would nag me nonstop, wake me up in the middle of the night to remind me to look for jobs in the morning. I was already going too. Then they'd walk away muttering how useless I am. I was ready to end it all. I've estranged myself from my entire family now aside from my parents as I live with them, and we've come to terms now. Hopefully there are no future hiccups, but I'm sure there will be.

I think that today, autistic and witchy people have a huge advantage over neurotypical people. We have extensive knowledge on a wide variety of subjects, we are determined in the face of adversity, and even if we are socially awkward or find it difficult to talk to people (this is my case, I am socially isolated) we can come together in these spaces and stop forcing social contact with neighbors or parents who ask us for the umpteenth time why we still don't have any friends or a girlfriend. Personally, I'd rather go online to investigate the Epstein case than have friends, and I think that's the case for many of you here. The others are completely ridiculous with their social codes to follow. They restrict themselves in terms of intellectual capacity in a completely stupid way to appear socially acceptable because the norm prefers a dumb athlete to a brilliant intellectual. That's why most people prefer athletes like soccer players or basketball players to Gregori Perelman, who solved Poincaré's conjecture. This whole circus is completely ridiculous. People make fun of their neighbors when they themselves are stupid, but to reassure themselves, they say that others are stupid and criticize us because we are not “within the norm.” We do not accept the social contract imposed by popular dogma, which wants us to we criticize to reassure ourselves without accumulating knowledge. Also, do people really compare their time spent on TikTok or Instagram to the knowledge in books, articles, and other sources before criticizing others? Maybe we should look in the mirror and accept that we are trash in order to change and follow a virtuous path that respects others. That's why we're here discussing this: we need to create a close-knit community and distance ourselves from the idiots who criticize us, keeping only those who understand us.And besides, it's not AI that's going to save these idiots. They need to rediscover what it means to read books, to dream, and to use their brains.

Let me clarify my vision. I think that weird people, including autistic people who are rejected and anyone considered strange by neurotypical humans, should unite to overturn social norms and make humanity as a whole think. I'm talking about a cultural revolution of “social misfits.” Of course, I am aware of what this implies, but for me, social media allows us to socialize with people who are similar to us. However, the problem is that there is still this very democratic idea that Alexis de Tocqueville described in Democracy in America the idea of the tyranny of the majority against minorities and, even more so, against people who are excluded and isolated. I think we need to unite and create real unity and cohesion in order to spread this idea and replace the idea that people are weird, because these ideas eat away at us from the inside.
