I can not stand it anymore. I'm done. I don't know what to do. It's over for me. My whole will be shit and then I'd die and finally I'd be at peace.
When you think about your life, you must think the whole thing (your 40s, 50s, 60s, etc…). A thing that young people (29 and less) don't do.
secretly, your parents still believe in you. You just want to be cool. Are we posers?

 No.292825

>>292824
What is the meaning of even wanting to be cool or being a poser at this point ? The end goal that we have submerged into ourselves have became unclear and we're just living and thinking that we're living, But the problem is we are not content with what we have so we strive for an illusionary Endgoal that it automatically becomes a Mean when we're done with it.

I don't know anon but I know deep down within you that you want to remove celibacy but you were unfortunate and that's why you want to find resonance, Unconsciously trying to stir up emotions of love and longing away from your core in order to portray a "I don't give a fuck about love" outter image but deep down within you want to.

But still you must understand that love is not essential in life, It's only a means, we must treat a person as an endgoal rather than treating them as a means for our endgoal, Why do you think your life is over ? Have you been mutiliated ? Are you dying of excruciating pain ? Are you living in India or some remote 3rd world country ? Are you living in 1979 Cambodia ? Are yo so poor that you cannot afford food ?

I don't think the problem is that you must see others as a means to justify your happiness but to see that others are accepting their lives and fighting through the pain of life that was presented through them, They are struggling and they're not wasting their life away unlike people who are completely blindedsighted on the gift that they posses.

the Modern world makes people think that they wasted their whole life but in realtiy it's just the beginning whether you're 40 or 30 or 20 because in every day there is a beginning until you die.

determinism is a joke and does not even have a plausible scientific proof only some vague speculations

world is likely deterministic only in limit and intermediate results are to some degree stochastic

i think determinism is a way for modern philosophers to gatekeep people who can't agree to a false concept because they are not fun

 No.292934

>>292929
The world has both determinism and free will.
Take a million people with the genes for down syndrome or heavy alcohol abuse, and 99% of them will have the same life outcomes in 25 years.

But there is the 1% that can fight their circumstances and genetics and instead of dying in a car crash or living in an institution for the retarded, they escape their fate and do something worthwhile.

are smart people more risk takers and low iq people less adventurous because their instinct tell to not be near danger. what do you think, is it true?

 No.292937

>>292935
Smart people throughout history took calculated risks or tried to rig the game in their favor so their risk of losing is very low.

Dumb people just go with the flow and trust "destiny" with zero preparation, and usually fail financially or die as a result of their risk taking.

 No.292938

Whether determinism is true doesn't matter, because you have to live as if it isn't. Even if you think it's true you have to live as if you're directing your own actions. Perhaps that's just an illusion created by your brain, but if it is then so what? It doesn't change the way you have to live.

>>292934
>Take a million people with the genes for down syndrome or heavy alcohol abuse, and 99% of them will have the same life outcomes in 25 years.
that's exactly what i'm saying, in limit you have predictable result, but how exactly this result is reached is far less deterministic. that means that your life outcome is likely already decided, at least for the most part, but how exactly you arrive there is likely up to you. this is why i maintain that you should arrive there happy, regardless of what you have to go through
>>292935
it's hard to tell and largely depends on nurture. if you grew up safe you won't be much of a risk taker, even if you're smart.
>>292938
i've been thinking exactly same thing. i find it healthy to add here what i've said above. this way if i fail i don't care because that was decided for me by God or Fate or whatever you call it. i only care about maintaining happy disposition regardless of shit

why let fate decide for you? if you let so happen to you, fate will put you in whatever situations he will and you'll be draged like an donkey here and there and you will complain what this happen to me. BE the one who tells fate/destiny what YOU wants and not the other way

are you being retarded for fun's sake or should i unironically treat it as a genuine reply? you only can defy fate in your opinion at the price of misery.

>>292947
Of all the things in the world, some depend on us, others do not. Those which depend on it are our opinions, our movements, our desires, our inclinations, our aversions; in a word, all our actions.

II. Those which do not depend on us are the body, the goods, the reputation, the dignities; in a word, all the things which are not among the number of our actions.

III. The things that depend on us are free by their nature, nothing can stop them or obstruct them; those who do not depend on it are weak, slaves, dependent, subject to a thousand obstacles and a thousand inconveniences, and entirely foreign.

IV. Remember therefore that, if you believe free those things which by their nature are slaves, and those which depend on others are proper to you, you will encounter obstacles at every step, you will be afflicted, troubled, and you will complain of the gods and men. Whereas if you believe that what is yours is yours, and that which belongs to others is foreign, no one will ever force you to do what you do not want, nor prevent you from doing what you want; you will not complain about anyone; you will not accuse anyone; you will do nothing, not even the smallest thing, in spite of yourself; no one will harm you, and you will have no enemies, because nothing harmful will happen to you.

XXVI. When the crow makes a croak of bad omen, let not your imagination carry you away, but immediately make a distinction within yourself and say: “None of the misfortunes presaged by this omen concern me; these misfortunes concern either my puny body, or my little possessions, or my little reputation, or my children, or my wife.

Epictetus
The quote I showed you is one of my favorite among all quotes from all philosophers (for now haha). I like it because he's right. Like you wouldn't prostitue your body like a whore to any passerby; as your mind,you will not let it be troubled by strangers.
I am someone who is easily hurt when I receive a comment or when something is supposed to hurt me, so this quote by epictetus helps me whenever something happens, I remember this quote and try to not be hurt. I like philosophy and want to be a philosopher but I'm just amateurish haha.

this quote?
>XV. You have acquired many beautiful things, you have many vessels of gold and silver, you are rich. But you lack the best good: constancy, submission to the orders of the gods, tranquility, freedom from trouble and fear. As for me, poor as I am, I am richer than you. I don't care about having a patron at court, I don't care about what people will say about me to the prince, and I don't flatter anyone. This is what takes the place of all goods for me. You have vessels of gold and silver, but all your thoughts, all your desires, all your inclinations, all your actions are of earth

here it is: https://mediterranees.net/litterature/epictete/pensees.html
sorry it's in french but you can translate using google trad or translate the whole blog. so you have les pensées (thinkings) and then book 1 to 4. for now I've only read the thinkings

frenchwiz? you seem oddly familiar, just can't remember where i'd seen you before.
