Have you ever thought of living in a car? I think it is very wizardly as you can live alone and travel wherever you want. You don't have to pay rent only car utilities and insurance. Of course you don't have a bathroom you will have to rely on gyms to wash yourself but still it sounds comfy. You also need to tackle the weather and other people but it is possible to do stealth camping.

I remember some pig screaming at me for having pulled over on the side of the road too many times in a row at a visible spot. You always have to have a rationale for why you would pick the spot you are in, otherwise that shit can happen. My mistake was picking areas for which there was no logical reason for someone to park so the locals got anxious

One time some cops came to ask for my ID and shit when I was camping somewhere. They said that they were checking out this spot because one of the dudes who used to camp here did some sort of political shooting.

>you obviously aren't familiar with this phenomenon of hearing voices which aren't your thoughts, which you can't turn off or control what they say, or realise what this is like, this will easily wreck your life

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.

>I remember back when I had rookie tolerance.

advertisement is repetitious. most people don't understand or make use of repetition themselves for their own benefit. they do live in a world where others repeat things in their face without their consent though. it annoys them but they think nothingn of it… consciously. whatever gets repeated the most to someone, automatically wins the attention of the subconsciousness.

i look at people who don't use adblock like they are an inferior species to me. like they are the dying last few survivors of a species unfit for survival.

I haven't had access to my main PC (almost made homeless and it is now in a storage unit lol) and I miss having adblock, even had that extension on Firefox that skips ad-reads too.

I use Linux on a laptop and I actually like the desktop environments, so no text-based distros for me. I don't think using GUI's to do certain stuff like distro installation is necessarily a bad thing, but you really need to know how to use the terminal if you want to experience the freedom and flexibility of Linux.
You can't use Debian-based distros on a lot of ancient laptops anymore with them having dropped i686, this was really bad for retro tech. Well atleast you can still use the Thinkpad T60.

i'm not saying switch to a text-based distro, i'm saying once you stepped into the arena (on a virtual machine or on a spare laptop for example) you will be glad you did it. because once you felt how nice text-based is you can cherry pick situations on which to choose text over graphics. i wish i did this sooner, don't repeat my mistake is what i am trying to say. text-based is awesome i regret staying so long on graphical. graphics are bloat!

"Everybody wants to write a book. The end of the world is evidently approaching."

I think we all would benefit and enjoy a little bit of writing. Consider this thread as a meant to discharge and simultaneously improve intellectual capacity. You are allowed, and encouraged to write ANYTHING, on this thread. However there is several things to consider:

1. Good prose
2. Structured and well intentioned.
3. You are encouraged to treat this as an intellectual exercise, the proliferation of AI compels me to warn you that whatever you write here would likely be read by them for whatever purpose.

I find myself more and more at a loss for words (literally speaking, no pun intended), less structured, less capable in communicating, less refined. People in real life is degrading at an even worse rate, and it would be unwise to attempt a good practice of language with normies.


The general parameters stated above are standards set for yourself, the goal is not to be good in all three, but to improve in all three and more (these three are all I can think of at the moment). I'm from a thirdie country, and I enjoyed those reading assessment that requires you read those passages on random things. It just feels authentic in a way.

The Recent Popularization of Wizdom and how a Wiz can survive such dark times.

By Anon the Doomer (Random name of a wizchan user 6 August 2026)


We are living in a gynocracy. This is the thesis has been widely discussed in online circles for a long time. However the recent popularization of crab culture, especially memes about hypergamy in jewgram reels and twitter, has seen normies adopting and romanticizing facets of crab and BP culture.


While many online voices approved what seems to be a wider acknowledgment by the normien1gger public of the BP, one must be cautious that a closer look at these voices would reveal that they are likely to be "enlightened" normies themselves. This suggest either of the two:
1. They have never experienced the bitter experience that develop the philosophy of BP, and thus these ideas aren't their own since they never have the need to cope.
2. They are grifting and take from BP culture to generate financial and social benefits for themselves.


A brief read on wizchan reveals that this recent upsurge of popularity of their culture is not received with enthusiasm nor acknowledged. The general mood on the phenomenon is grim: We are seeing the gentrification of wiz culture.

We have seen how gentrification of various culture and subculture, previously a space for wiz and crabs to thrive, being invaded by succubi and normien1ggers, and how these communities died.

While we are facing the same prospects, one must remember that the nature of true wizdom meant that it is inherently individualistic. Communities, when such exists, serves as outlet and dopamine source echo chambers. A wiz can get good advice and information from these communities that serves to further elucidate his experience, ultimately however, a wiz become a wiz due to his own experience.

Do not deceive yourself. Whatever prevailing views take place in a community, you must be wakeful to not adopt this views subconsciously, let alone consciously. Such practice belongs to the unwashed feminine, a lower existence, not to the aristocratic wiz.

Its called "prole drift"

the erosion of the middle class is tossing mid/low tier normies into working class excess maledom where they are more receptive to these ideas.

grifters know that harping on these ideas will bear fruit because their is now a large audience that is psychologically primed to recieve and internalize BP ideas, whereas, say, in the 2010s, mid-tier succubi were democratized through unique and real-world social subcultures and individuals so that even band geeks got to bang band geek succubi, goths, jocks, scene/emo etc. everyone had a mate.

now that social media has destroyed that and made a horrific monoculture, where succubi can swipe endlessly on a globalized pool of men, crabdom, virginity, and poverty are more commonplace. These are ripe times for the distribution of BP propaganda, even through a contrived, normie lens like clavicular

you think attention is behaving inflationary?

since attention is treated like a currency in a monetized internet and the money is inflationary on it's own, i would wonder if the inflation from the money is infecting something that in it's own would not necessarily behave inflationary (as in getting more and more worthless as time progresses). human life is finite, maybe this forces attention to increase in value the older someone gets. i'd call that deflation.

this seems like a growth that far outpaces any inflation but then again, monopolies don't have budget restriction like every fair/honorable/competitive company that is not owned by billionaires for a plethora of reasons different from the ones that are obvious to the clueless surface people involved, the bunker people have defacto infinite resources. to compare this with an actual company that is subject to markets and the economy with real competition owned by non-cannibals might me ridiculously short-sighted and unrealistic.

i ran your retardation through chatgpt for a bit of refinement

>If attention functions as a currency in the monetized internet, then it is being exchanged within a monetary system whose nominal unit—money—is inherently inflationary. But attention itself is not obviously inflationary in the same way. A person has a finite amount of time and, therefore, a finite lifetime supply of attention.

easier to understand

>This creates a tension: the internet continually produces more things competing for attention, while each individual’s total supply of attention remains strictly bounded. In that sense, attention may actually become deflationary at the level of an individual life.

i wholeheartedly disagree with this

as attention is more aggressively sought after, given people's finite capacity for it, more people will turn away/inward and stop paying attention to anything except what they've decided to psychologically silo as important.

>As time passes, the amount of attention a person has remaining decreases, potentially making each remaining unit more valuable.

again, completely disagree with this retarded premise concocted by the Gippity
Youth and beauty are instrumental in driving attention. Old people, especially single men after the age of 35, are economically irrelevant.

I would only argue a persons attention is deflationary the more valuable that person is economically, whether its wealth, connections, fame, status, ie something to offer you in increasingly exponential amounts.

For the longest Time i had none other than my Parents to share my problems with and they Would Always say stuff like:
"Everything Will be alright, just be positive"
And for The longest Time i believed that was bull shit, to think our thoughts could influence reality and our outcomes in life, and lately After another conversationv with my father where he said the usual stuff of "everything Will be alright for you as Long You remain positive and optimistic"
I thought to my self why don't i become positive and optimistic just in order to relieve my present anxities? even if maybe it's all dogshit and the universe is indifferent about your thoughts and such, but of course when you are a life Time pessimist, it's not easy to change your mindset, even if it's just wanting to delude my Self.

positivity that's something you chose. it's choice. your genes don't limit how often you are positive, your habit does, which you can override with something else and if you can hold it long enough, it will replace the old.

i would start like this: be in optimism for 1 minute every day until it becomes easy, then increase to 5 minutes.

Damn, I wish I had parents that were like that. My parents are the most negative people I know. They always think of dozens of different ways anything might go wrong and just talk about them as if bringing them up is somehow helpful.

My parents and I got invited to go watch some music performance where children who were learning to play music performed and my parents just sat there criticizing every little mistake these kids made loudly and in ear shot of everyone who was watching them. I was mortified. I wish my parents could just be positive for one second of their lives. I think their constant negativity is one reason why I feel so much healthier when I'm not living with them.

This is going to sound like bullshit pseudo science, but I wonder if it's like an addition problem.

The most important thing that modern ethos gets right is that gratitude is the key to eternal happiness.

I'm thankful for having been given a life. I'm thankful for having 2 arms and legs, and I'm thankful for every day that I'm given a new day of life to wake up in the morning. Every day I'm given the option to make my life a little more beautiful, and every day I'm given a new set of challenges to overcome. I'm thankful for the good that happened in my life and I'm thankful for the bad that happened in my life. I will never lead the life of a normal person but that's OK, because I'm me and I have been given a cosmic pen to write my own story.

You have to really dig down to some central core in your being to get to this true point though. I went through a lot of suffering to get where I am today, and I'm not sure if it's possible to get there if you haven't gone the flames yet. I suppose that is the story of life though. First you're given it, then you hopefully learn to appreciate it.
