>gave me the most disgusting smile, then crudely said take care.
what does this mean, she smiled at you and greeted you goodbye? what more do you want, you want people to not say anything?

embrace it. be comfortable with being loathed. why do people always feel like every single person in the world has to like them? why are people always doing everything to avoid tense situations?

turn that resentment and disgust that they harbor towards you into fear. then they will begrudgingly respect you.

>>277817
I cannot know how to guide you through situations I ignore, but this has been my usual method.

>reply to sarcasm while being completely oblivious to sarcasm
>know that these laughters are intetional, trying to make desist from being or doing something: remember, they attack because of mainly being butthurted and they attack with what hurts them
>do not answer to questions deliberately, if you feel awkward because of answering such
>sometimes is more opportune to not even look at them, wonder about their real intentions
>never fear their laughter, instead of that, make them laugh as much as they might be able to. If it's because you are wearing pink, then wear pink everyday in front of them. Until they get tired, and let it clear you want them to laugh. Walk towards what hurts you, as if gently offering thyself for their happiness (if their laughters are out of cruelty, they will soon feel their own idiocy as a burden)

Listen. You are playing too safe. Walk your into pain, your fear. What do they say exactly? Let you know that such attitude is mostly a way to hide their butthurt about something you have or do.

You can't hurt their egos unless you're much higher status then them. They can only become vulnerable to attitudes of those they desperately want to fuck and gold dig, otherwise succubi's egos can't be affected by anything an ordinary man can say or do. Just give up on this one, I know it's hard to simply bear it but trying to fight it is nothing but trouble. Avoid them as much as you can and think of doing something that makes you feel better instead.
I know experiencing their assholery will always hurt but the best way to cope is to disengage and limit your exposure to their shit to an absolute minimum. If you have no choice but to deal with them at work then streamline and optimize all of your interactions with them into brief, technical, detached, professional, to the point exchanges while projecting an air of the most unshakeable indifference towards all things that aren't related to getting the work done. If whatever business they may have with you can be finished quickly and efficiently they'll probably shut the fuck up on their own and leave you alone because in the end cutting the bullshit and getting things done as fast as possible benefits everyone.
These days people are much more interested in looking at their retardphones than interacting with anyone. They still socialize and play the workplace games but they do it more out of implicit expectations and perceived obligations than for fun. Truth is in 99% of cases succubi would rather go back to their cubicle to watch Netflix than flirt with Chad at the water cooler. The trick is to give them the free, consequence-less option to fuck off. The hard part is actually getting them to choose that option.
If you outright tell them to fuck off they won't and it's only going to get worse since they'll try to use all the other workers against you. If you try to go with a simulated cordial normie routine they won't fuck off due to oversocialized female impulses compelling them to engage in all available petty social maneuvering opportunities even thought they hate you. Usually staying exceptionally dissociated, focused only on the essential tasks and doing it until they notice and choose to pursue the wide open option to fuck off seems to be the best method. It requires the patience of a saint, a thick skin and the ability to deal with the pain inside but it worked for me.
Disclaimer, note that getting people to mostly leave me alone didn't make being around them all easy and peaceful. AftPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Treat them like air, don't acknowledge them as people but as laughing demons that won't lead you astray. succubi need attention to live, don't acknowledge their existence to destroy them.

lol this is pretty telling i think
there's also berezovsky and mogilevich, khodorovsky… impressive how many of these shady men who got filthy rich as the soviet union collapsed were jewish

>>277864
I'd hardly put gangs and the mafia in the same category. Seems to me like you are just looking for a chance to be butthurt about jews.

>>277886
well I guess successful criminals don't count

>>277910
Organized criminal groups are totally and fundamentally different, from the reason they exist to what motivates their crime. Organized crime is (functionally) an illegal or immoral corporate enterprise, while a gang is a manifestation of a group's primate impulses.

I don’t do anything. I spend my days speculating on stock market indexes for money.

>>277831
Want to know how I know you don't actually do that?

it's actually nice being away from computer and internet. i spend my time on breaks and lunch reading old space operas

>>277831
Just sit and hold; reap dividends in the mean-time. Sheesh.

>>277804
sounds fine. Does it pay any good?

tfw can't enjoy vidya because of aphantasia and no imagination anyone know this feel

>>275065
Isn't that the whole point of using media? Most games provide enough visual/audio feedback that you don't need imagination.

real men play games with guns

>>273339
But I think the people into retro gaming are almost all SJWs themselves, and wouldn't be against ranny leftist politics being in games anyway, and you're misquoting the prices, there's tons of old games which are worth next to nothing on ebay. I think it's mostly the youtubers driving up prices.

It's time for you to look for your dreams in real life. But wizards usually have no dreams along with the brain fog that consumes their lives.

Your unconscious, anyway, won't care. It is a sign of that, and there it can remain until death

>Certain scenes are better in 4:3
No they aren't.
>I am gobsmacked
*smack smack smack the gob*
>Have you not watched films with shifting aspect ratios or non standard ones?
I have seen damn near every aspect ratio in every context in nearly every situation.
Some are universally shitier then others. There is no context where 4:3 isn't shit compared to other options. Which is why you can't give a single example and instead keep talking around vague hypotheticals.

>Look at how in anime now in order to show a close up of the face it is zoomed in too much or has a lot of background showing compared to what can be done with the earlier aspect ratio.
What you said doesn't make sense.
Only shit formatted for small tv screens was in 4:3.
Anime wasn't natively in that format.
Or are you seriously going to get your butt blasted as I use this shit thread as a thin excuse to go full oldtaku on your contrarian ass as I rant about old anime for a few hours?
Because I rather rant about old anime.

>>276135
Only if you don't mind a gap in the middle.

>>276157
>rant about old anime
What does this mean? That you're going to rant about old anime being bad? Because that would confirm that the contrarian here is you.

>>276203
He didn't say he was going to rant negatively about old anime Mr zoomer.

Whatever works best. Ratio is irrelevant.

>anything from the sea is fair game
Whales and pinnipeds are mammals in the sea. Also octopuses and squid are highly intelligent and clearly feel pain but no one seems to care about killing them.

Sugar Gliders

Cute but aren't these gliding possums nocturnal?

a few weeks old i saw the Nicholsonian portrayal of the joker and decided i would be a gamer later in life

about 4 years old, driving in the middle of the Inland Empire with my dad in his red miata, starting at the cassette player in front of a train stop with a small cargo truck either in front, next or behind us. We were east of the setting sun.

>>276846
maybe im retarded but this story is nauseating to follow

>he was gonna get a beating for eating part of a 6th graders ear in a fight
so it was the principal who ate the 6th graders ear? how the fuck does a principal even get in a fight with a student?
>the 6th grader was 'connected'
no idea what the fuck this means
>the little guy had known nothing but abuse all his life and and when the fat fuck pedo came for him he grabbed a 9" brass letter opener off the desk and jammed it thru the pedo's left eye
why would the pedo principal try to attack the 6th grader when he was supposedly just shitting himself earlier?

My earliest clear memory was when I was 3, walking to preschool with my dad. I knew it was my first memory and told him. At preschool I thought about how awesome it was that I already knew things like how old I was, who my family members are, basic facts, even though I was having my first memory. I remember some time later looking at photos of my third birthday and thinking about how I don't remember it at all, and wondering where the cool bugs life toy that was in the photo was.

I *may* have an earlier memory of almost drowning in a YMCA pool but it might have just been a dream I had while young. I remember just deciding to jump in and I sunk to the bottom. I looked up and just accepted that I was going to die, knowing how short my life was. But my dad came in and got me, assuming this was real and not just a dream.

getting circumcucked. i am permanently traumatised by it

You gotta be more specific than that.

>>274762
do you mean this?

I think you would like to read about gnosticism. One particular gnostic movement is the Catharism who emerged in France between the 12th and 14th century.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catharism

>>277748
>Cathars believed that the good God was the God of the New Testament, creator of the spiritual realm, whereas the evil God was the God of the Old Testament, creator of the physical world whom many Cathars identified as Satan.
This makes a lot of sense. Why isn't this just mainline Catholicism?

yes i agree.
i don't think it's personal though, that's where we differ.
i think God has hated all of mankind for a long time now and has decided to shit on everybody. i think it started showing up hardcore in 2013 and has only increased in severity since then.

the reason i don't think it's a personal attack or an attack against wizards in particular is because "happy" people who believe God is benevolent are actually leading terrible lives full of slavery and subjugation and surrounded by performing circus clowns, and they smile through it all because they're soulless. or perhaps these falsely "happy" soulless people are in fact agents of chaos sent here by the lord to make everything even more bizarre and uncomfortable for people like you and me who are awake.

it's one thing to live in literal hell. it's even more traumatizing when you look around and see people worshiping black celebrities throughout it all.

>>274035
Shut the fuck up, you unfunny nigger lover.

>>277775
It was pretty funny and cute.

>>277587
My guess is pretending to be retarded for attention. You can't be so stupid as to do a ton of mukbangs all the time and then act shocked and befuddled when you gain weight. I think the whole thing is some act for attention.

>>277670
He’s not pretending anything. His followers are mentally ill homosexuals who get off on seeing him get fat and destroy his body.

>>277584
He gone crazy aka mentally ill.

D.a.s.h. diet and walking 15 miles per week. Briskly walking. Also do as many pushups and stretches and situps (huts my tailbone so I need my hands under me) that you can stand every single day. I try to also sleep and wake up at the same time and for at least 9 hours I try to sleep. I fail often with this but not dieting. Schedules are so hard…

Basically I eat mostly lentils myself and never have even close to 100% of my daily salt.

Example of a meal plans randomly thrown together:

>250 cal of lentils
>50 cal of potato
>50 cal of part skim milk string cheese
>100ish call avocado in the lentil soup (also spices in that soup but no salt)
>bell peppers, raspberries, cherry tomatoes (that's three times less than grape tomatoes), etc
>32 cal, 50 cal ras berry, tom. 37 cal for ten of them or so (grape ones), etc
another:
>perhaps a small amount of dark, 95 percent dark, chocolate with decaff coffee of which has stevia (real stevia) and vanilla extract in it
>100 cal choc, near zero coffee
>also drink literally no less than one gallon of water every single day

And never have more than 1.5k calories. If not wolking closer to 1000 calories. I've went from 260ish to 205ish in 3 or four months so far. I was scared into eating this way by possible prediabetes and my foot fucking up constantly and knee starting to give out. I'm in my early 30s. Also I don't like taking a hypertension pill and would like to be off of it. I've managed to start cutting the pill in half after I started getting blood pressure TOO LOW but at times that was probably because I literally had nearly no sodium in my system, the cheese helps with that but I never have enough from it so I throw in 1 or 2 servings of chips as well a day. Other times I may have a treat of very fiberous sandwiches of morning star so as to avoid eating meat and gorging on it.
>fake chicken, bufallo, 170 cal for a patty, 11 percent sodium, etc

Dry fasting was good, lasted 60 hours. Was getting boners even 48 hours in. Cut it short because I had to deal with getting my cat out of a tree. Healed injuries from years ago that weren't even on my radar because they are minor. Didn't cure my lymphodema I got in my arm from laying down and eating too much after my hamstring injury from 2018. Was harder to adjust back to eating than I expected. Felt bad the first day after.

This morning I went swimming before dawn while it was cold, dark and foggy. The water was actually warmer than the air, which I got used to walking 2.5 miles to the river, so it wasn't so bad. On the way back my ears and hands were cold; wore my towel on my head and alternated hands in my pockets (cause I had to hold bag of breakfast with other). I got under all the blankets I have when I got home. Ate liver and salad on the way back, eating the rest of the salad, cheese and steak now. I was chopping up veggies for this salad at 4am and then used my meatslicer to cut a steak off of a big cut of meat.
The salad is: carrots, celery, cabbage, garlic, salt and pepper, a little olive oil, a little honey, pine nuts.
