i keep wondering if all fiction could be unhealthy for the brain. human life is so short, a day has so few hours. how can you take one or more of these hours and flee to a place that doesn't exist and disconnect from your own reality.

places that don't exist have begun to repell me. my own reality has so many projects i would like to attend to that i feel gridlocked by not knowing what to do first. desire for fiction might be nothing but pure idleness.

i assume i understand the impulse, though i could be mistaken. when i was a child and were forced to attend child prison (school), the idea of no longer being able to explore the world at my own pace and instead had to spend time with the violent conformist was completely depressing. have them judge my intelligence based on how hard i could force myself to care what they thought was important in their desperate attempt to turn me into a mindless soldier and stomp all my dreams and interests in the process.

i'd flee into video games and at least videogames are interactive. in a video game i can make decisions, in school i was but an inmate without agency. but in a movie about a super hero, there is no interaction, the poor fool who watches this is but the passive recipient of centralized propaganda. i don't see how someone would accept this premise and spend time on this.

thought of a tiny detail i'd like to add to the mountain of ideas that is accumulating against this unhealthy vice of fiction, which even though i gave it every opportunity to be defended starts to look like a puddle of tears to me.

a guy who meditates i believe will be infinite times more interesting then a guy who watches popular contemporary fiction. doesn't that mean it is better not to watch the popular slop? fiction seems to me like fast food. it is designed to seduce you but even though you pay for it with your most precious currency (time that is), it still puts you at a disadvantage and you would be better of eating real food. real food i believe to be living an actual human life in physical reality.

I was about to write that you don't need meditation in the other thread, that it's a moronic, misguided, idolistic practice. But it's the only tool for most people to realize you have no ego. (Even so, it doesn't seem to be an aim or the end goal of meditation of most. It seems like a mini cult)
Without an ego, you can offer them certain offers which potentially are not benefitial for you (like fucking them up physically). Then depending on situation it's either deescalated, or they chicken out, or it's escalated and they realize you can stand for yourself, or it's escalated and you end up dead / in prison.

A person without an ego doesn't fear defeat, death, or prison.
Obviously he still has his attachments.
So it's usually preferable to handle that in a smart way. But having an image of a complete nutcase can also yield good results.

When you have that shit sorted out, one might find oneself to be a side kind of person, one less included in common affairs. For me it's a nice bonus. I can do my shit while they do theirs.

Few years ago. Watched a anime about it and got curious. Learned a bit more about the rules and basic strategy then played online a bit. Found it kind of boring and full games tedious so just stopped.

At this point I am pretty sure I forgot all the strategies I learned and most of the rules.
Also never played once in real life or even knew another person in real life who knew how to play it.
With chess it was mainly a way of bonding between my father and me, so it will always have that connection even though I have fallen out with the game. But with Go there is zero connection for me in my personal life. No strong memories.

anyone here into studying carl jung by any chance? there is a lot i find fascinating about him but what impressed me the most is that he condensed his mental health strategy into a single word: integtation. implied in this is that each person has unconscious parts and by making those unconscious parts conscious, they no longer sabotage.

to me this is amazing and ballsey. i image most other mental health practitioners would not give you a one word answer to the question of how to have a healthy mind. i image they'd say that this is impossible to answer and that it depends and that an expert is needed.

Yes I've gotten very into him in the past couple years. Active imagination has been the most useful psychological thing I've done.

>>310064
There is no general rule because it depends on individuals. Things like ethnicity, culture, familial background impacts the specifics. As an actual technique the most effective one is active imagination.

The essential thing is just having those situations where you can encounter the unconscious content so you can actually engage with it and come into proper relation with it. Historically this would have been through things like local folk practices and religious rituals, and cultural practices generally. Jung's idea is that the human psyche has things which express those ethnic/religious ideas (archetypes) and that because we are alienated from the traditional means there isn't actually a great vehicle for doing it. He attempts to provide a way for people to do it on their own stuff like:
>Oh well she's trying to find herself and integrate her shadow of course! If the said husband is hurt by this then well, he's got an unexplored and neglected anima!
Largely comes from people trying to simplify it or make it accessible, ultimately you are the only one who can ensure your relation to those complexes is harmonious. There are many ways it can go wrong, inflation because you identify with the unconcious or collective conciousness. Possession by the archetype and having your ego sort of shadowed over by it. Projecting it onto things around you (the most obvious thing for this is succubi liking abusive/domineering men because that's a vehicle for animus projection, and men liking attention whore succubi because they are a vehicle for anima projection)
The opposite is also the case, the butch dyke identifying with her animus, or the fag/tranny identifying with their anima.

The whole idea is these things are at work in us anyway and by getting a clearer relationship with it rather then it just harvesting your energy you can have a proper relationship with it and see how it effects you.

A very simple practical thing can kind of be seen through the popularization of jung through the psychological type stuff.

>I mean, conceptually it seems logical, but like all if this psychology shit, it falls apart in practice.

you could have taken responsibility and said "i don't know how" but instead you have chosen to make it a theater production and the more unconscious you are, the more you feel the urge to frame reality in terms that would imply that you can not be at fault for it. that immediately jumped at me. even on a somewhat anonymous website you don't feel comfortable being vulnerable. the voice in your head that said "wait no, lets write it in a way where it doesn't sound like i did something wrong!" i believe to be your unconscious.

>How do you "integrate" your subconscious, your shadow, become an "individual"? Jung never really made that super clear, it all vague wishy washy shit that can map unto anything.

-_- well it's a process that takes time, effort and present-mindedness. you keep learning about it, fiding out new details, wondering how it could make sense. you try to find out what the part that takes control of you is trying to tell you. you are asking for a pill, for a code that you just have to execute, you are asking for someone to do the thinking for you instead of walking as far and as fast as your own thoughts can carry you.

there is something inside you, heavily suppressed by education, normality, culture, fear and all kinds of other social mechanisms of violence and you are trying to find out what it tries to tell you. one way the the subconscious tries to communicate with you is through dreams so one part of it is to make a dream journal. i use a simple open source notepad app on the phone were i just have to write the end of the filename and hit a button and it is saved in a folder of my choice.

>Why is the succubus cheating on her husband? Oh well she's trying to find herself and integrate her shadow of course! If the said husband is hurt by this then well, he's got an unexplored and neglected anima!

anything can be made to sound stupid.

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.

Thank you for participating

Martial arts only seems to improve very specific movements which I guess requires a fight in the first place. Maybe higher level techniques will grant similar benefits to skating, but skating day 1 is improving your fundamental balance which is such a great skill. My mother needs it, she is short and overweight and leans forward when she walks like an anime character, this leads to her falling over once a month or so. She gets seriously injured and I freak the fuck out on her for it. She doesn't learn. Sorry tangent.

>She gets seriously injured and I freak the fuck out on her for it. She doesn't learn. Sorry tangent.

you can teach her by holding both her hands while she tries to balance on the skateboard and pushes and rides. you just walk along holding her hands that way when she falls, she can either catch herself or you can make her land so slowly that there is no injury. i did this with my father.

another thing that i did also works: i threaded a rope through his belt loops so that i can walk behind him holding the rope, that way he can use his arms for balance while i hold him close so when he falls i can decelerate his fall by just pulling the rope backwards.

>Goodness I'm so sorry to hear about that. Is there a particular reason people are so awful there?

when you can do something that is difficult and impressive in public, people have a wide range of needy nonconsensual behaviors that they feel a compulsion to exhibit. they want to meet, they want to stare, they want to ask questions, they want to get to know you, they want to impress you back, they want to have sex, even gay sex, they want to create monetized internet content, sometimes as hidden camera content from in the bushes, they want to follow you home because they want to know where you live, they want, they want, they want.

>that youth gangs will harrass you etc.. Hard to catch a break in this modern world.

i have not encountered many youth gangs here, where i live the young people are drowned in artificial problems and are carefully kept depressed by the compulsory education system. young people who aren't camera-assholes usually don't mess with me, they are too busy recovering from being traumatized.

>Wonderful I wish you the best and a healthy life, perhaps I should be more healthy.

i did it over the course of ~8 years, lots of experimentation with what to eat and what else to keep this body in peak condition. i would try to live a certain way and then go back to my previous lifestyle for the most part and forget how much better i felt. i was missing a good way to deal with information in this overwhelming state of infinite information, which i have recently found.

Oh my mother is basically disabled, she could never ride a skateboard. If she falls she will likely break bones due to her weight and 25+ years of being on a medication that weakens her bones (long story).

Ah I see. The typical jealous normie. When I was a kid/teen I got the same treatment, they would run in my way, throw balls at me to try and make me fall. It's all a gimic to provoke me which gives them an excuse to attack me 5v1 or even get their parents involved. Fucking savages. I haven't experienced much of that now but laregly due to local parks being a lot more of a ghost town compared to 15~25 years ago. I'm sure in the main cities it would be worse.

Have you noticed how much more important it is to eat healthy now we are older? I'm only 29 and I feel like shit most of the time. Had some very painful issues that scared me but a better diet fixed those. Pain in abdomen was killing me. Still need to cut out all the beer and junk food :p very dumb of me to consume so much of it.

my father bought one piece of exercise equipment used, an elyptical machine. he uses is every morning for 5-10 minutes until he sweats and it has ben a difference of night and day for him. the human body needs exercise regardless of age, find a way go get your mother to exercise if you want her to be around for a few more years, it's up to you!

yes! i was exactly your age when i finally realized. i wish i knew sooner. this was 10 years ago. when i was 29 i would gently dial down all the unhealthy stuff. and eat sandwiches that i put a boatload of cucumber, bellpepper and every other vegetable i could stand on. then when i hit 30 i switched to mostly eating fruit. you can tell by comparing me to the people my age who eat junk, i am a different species because of this.

you are well on your way to finding out how to survive as a prey animal. i just got better at anticipating where they are at what time, being ready to avoid them before they even made their first chess move. for example i can go anywhere around 9:00, at 16:00 i wouldn't go to the supermarket, supermarket is best at 7:30.

I've never considered it - maybe I've never been low enough even though I walk around thinking "I should kill myself. I should kill myself." on repeat. My life is still largely tolerable despite being completely empty and greyscale and meaningless so I've never actually made any plans.

There's absolutely nothing appealing to me about calling up some stranger who's only obligated to help because that's their contextualized role. The main reason I want to kill myself is precisely because of how instanced and contextualized and transient everything feels. It's all just vapid transactional junk.

After hitting 30 this feeling has been eating me and I don't know how to resolve it. I started watching different youtube channels and it made me realize how much time I wasted staring at a screen when I could be experiencing the world and creating things. The 21st century offers so many possibilities and yet all I did was sit at home play video games and read inane garbage online. Now I always had depression, anxiety, social autism, adhd, average iq etc. that lead to me being an underachiever but nowadays it feels like I was just the right self-help book and meds/supplement combination and some effort away from solving all these issues.

I could start now but after hitting 30 I feel this sense of hopelessness after experiencing aging. I felt like shit in my 20s but now I realize I actually felt good. Now I tire easily and years of sitting made my body feel rusty. I feel like the youth shield is gone and I can't take the future for granted anymore and expect it to make it even to 40. Every time I experience a new pain or sensation I imagine it to be the start of something serious.

How do you deal with this? It feels like modern technology amplifies winners so if you are a loser it feels extra bad because there is such a big contrast between living with your parents and riding the bus and eating mac and cheese and living in a multi-million dollar mansion with a beautiful view and driving a ferrari and eating at 3 star restauraunts.

I have a similar issue to OP, but still have a little less than a decade until I become a full fledged wizard.
Everyday is a battle of a swinging pendulum: brain fog and emptiness, or desperation and overwhelming ambition. Right now I am in the ambitious phase and want to lockdown a 'big boy' job before I turn 30, though it is demoralizing that the people who are my age and used to talk to me are now finishing university and getting internships or even getting engaged - it makes me feel like a confused old man in the body of a young one.

I've accepted that I might actually have adhd that fills my head with noise that makes me forget what I was just thinking about or doing, but there has to be something else that has absolutely fucked me over and led me to the bad route.

How do I push myself one last time to secure a decent job or my own place before I am done.

I think the physical war games depends on the certain rulesets and how seriously people take them. From what I've heard there's often a couple books and a judge involved in serious matches. Seems very confusing. I just like to collect and paint - though struggle to find motivation. I will encounter one hiccup building a model and mess it up slightly, which kills my enthusiasm to build more. Especially for the more expensive stuff. If one regular 10 piece soldier gives me grief, how will I build those 100~200 piece flagship models? It's very overwhelming

when you mess something up, you can correct it through lore. when you paint one eye too low, that's an unfortunate accident in the cybernetic surgery for the occular augmentation one particular soldier had the misfortune of suffering from.

Its even smaller stuff too, the book ttells me to make 85% of the model and I do, then it asks me to place a tiny piece in an awkward spot. Idk wtf thte retards are thinking when designing the instructions. too me 30 minsutes and a messy result to glue one dumb piece on

>It's just a mean spirited racism where they flaunt superiority and laugh at others for being different. One of them even employs jeets and has them doing yardwork for him.

This is basically how the instinct manifests. When people develop attitudes of racial superiority/inferiority, it justifies treating minorities worse and gaining more from doing so. It's very common for racists to employ minorities and to pay them less than the market rate for labor. They say, this person is no good, they aren't worth paying a normal amount. The more people who do this in society, the more the prices that minority can charge go down. The "true" market value of minority labor is thus effectively reduced through racism and that ends up benefiting the racists who are in the majority. A non racist may end up paying a rate that is higher than what they actually have to pay because they don't buy into the racism and believe that person deserves to be treated fairly.

You will often see that the less successful someone is, the more racist they are. This is because the untalented need to rely on such instincts to get every benefit they can. This instinct is naturally expressed higher in people with low intelligence because it's what works best for them.

I cannot shake off the impending sense of death, NOT doom mind you. More like a sense of finality, like a "that's all folks" in the back of my head. Not pain or joy. Just owari da. Of having hit a wall and knowing that there's nothing back to walk to, nor a forward to look to.

I remember reading this book together with the Hagakure when I was a teenager and going through that classic samurai phase. I guess I was hoping for some life advice, but instead I got a pretty straightforward manual on swordsmanship. There's some good (but basic) advice on things like footwork, etc. more than there is advice on life in that book.
And don't even get me started on the Hagakure. I was hoping it was going to be the Japanese equivalent of Meditations by Marcus Aurelius (although I cam to dislike that book too) and instead I got a bunch of nonsense about the extremely contrived social etiquette of 17th century Japan written by a bureaucrat LARPing as a samurai.

I feel like a lot of people, especially older normies overestimate the abilities of the average guy and the problems that are out there to be solved in real life.

There is this old guy I listened to for the past decade now called Eli the Computer Guy and he often repeats this mantra that a tech professional should go out there pick themselves up by their bootstraps and solve problems for money.
Solve real world problems for money. Provide solutions using your skills. Over and over again while teaching people about making toy cars with a microcomputer or whatever.

Issue is there aren't any problems the average guy is capable of solving that people are able to pay enough for to make it worthwhile.
Maybe I'm low IQ and not creative enough, but that is the point I guess.
The average guy that got a CS or engineering degree and is now doing menial tasks at a big corporation isn't going to create groundbreaking solutions because everything worth doing, all the low hanging fruit and obvious problem/solution pairs have been done to death, patented to death or worse.

Big tech is so big that they offer a solution so refined, so solid, so cheap that no mom-and-pop shop will ever give you the time of day if those even exist.
The average normie is quite content with a phone which is basically a toy-ified computer gadget.
They don't need more.
Most even run their own little business from it using a handful of cheap/free big tech tools that if you were to offer a homebrew solution for it would cost an arm and leg to maintain without economies of scale.

What does a network tech that wants to "solve problems" do aside from running cable? You could lease a 10G fiber line from a big ISP and sublet it by wiring up a small village I guess?
Then the government gives a huge fucking grant to big ISP and they just wire up every small village themselves leaving you with nothing.
If you are lucky you can become a subcontractor doing menial tasks for the big ISP in a set region.

What does the average coder do now? Especially with the future of them limiting hardware/software access? Every app is made that a normie needs. Kinda like with websites.
Every normie uses less than a dozen of them, mostly through apps…

The totality of American life can be provided by walmart. Pretty hard to compete with that. The USD is the world's reserve currency so we can import goods from abroad cheaply as our currency is always in demand abroad and inflates more slowly due to the high usage globally. You can't outcompete giant corporations exploiting third world wage slave labor.

The only real options you have are for jobs that we would have called "domestic servitude" back in the day. IE, taking care of the grounds/lives of rich people. You can be a landscaper or a house cleaner or a dog sitter or some other service catering to rich people.

60% of the spending in the economy today is done by the top 10% of income earners. This means we are all literally serving the wealthy. Trickle down economics has been cemented as the status quo economic policy going forward. They give the working class the bare minimum the working class will accept. Always have, always will. This means it's a perpetual race to the bottom for the working class as they attempt to climb over one another like crabs in a bucket to get the scraps being handed out by the wealthy.

can you (or one of your personalities who is currently driving you while you sit co-pilot) explain how does this differ from just being unconscious? i say it doesn't. unconscious people refuse to question things so they don't question themselves. they don't question their behavior or even pay much attention to it, so they will never catch themselves doing things they didn't plan to do.

>Set and setting seems to be extremely important to me. I also need to basically take a dose intended for a baby or a toddler, which is difficult when weed becoming stronger and stronger.

i am looking forward to do it in the winter again. for the longest time i didn't do it around people because people get very strange when you are in tune with your unconditioned self while they are not. they unleash all the evil on you that was done to them, act like they are friendly while making fun of you and purposefully violate all your boundaries. if you don't have a lot of life experience in dispelling evil it will be awful so i'd do it alone as a beginner.

and to get the dose right don't smoke it, smoking is unhealthy anyways. buy a small jar of coconut oil and turn the weed into oil:

i do it by first baking the weed at low temperature for 40 minutes and then put the baked, ground weed into the oil where i keep it at a low temperature for 3 hours, then after letting it cool a bit i pour it through a tiny strainer into a glass jar where it can remain while i discard the remaining plantmatter.

i make a very weak oil from it and then take a teaspoon and it will be consistently weak, perfect to do creative stuff or enjoy music or take it easy after a while or walk through nature. i am so glad i chose weed and not alcohol now that i am a bit older and have seen plenty of people who went with alcohol.

I remember back when I had rookie tolerance. It was something magical. I just ended up diving in and enjoying the ride and have been hooked ever since. I kind of miss when weed was illegal and I had built in T breaks when I couldn't get any.

I think I always just thought of weed as harmless. It's not like acid which can cause bad trips depending on the quality which makes it kind of a crap shoot. Bad trips are actually really disturbing sometimes because your concepts of what reality is get affected by the drugs and that can stick with you, but weed isn't like that. At most you will see some patterns with your eyes closed when listening to music or something, you don't actually trip. Your experience of reality remains unchanged, but your own thoughts may change in ways that are pleasurable and beneficial. Weed helps me feel emotions more strongly, and when I was first starting out I found it to be really thought accelerating and causing creativity. You might have bad experience because of anxiety, but honestly, most of my life has been bad experiences, I'm used to that, IDK about you but I'd be willing to chance it knowing in the end you will come out safe.

The algorithm i use:

If someone upsets you,
Tell them what they did that upset you. You dont need to explain yourself, you dont need to give a reason, you dont need to lie at all. Youre allowed to have boundaries. Youre allowed to have private reasons. To an extent- as long as youre not hurting anyone- youre allowed even to be a bit irrational.

If they continue to cross that line and disrespect your boundaries, then that person is habitually disrespecting you and should be treated with a degree of hostility until you get your point across.

A mediator would be preferable if you can get one, but usually with family and with parents especially, you need to stand up for yourself and fight for yourself. No one's going to do it for you.
