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've been seeing this stated over and over again where people are saying large swaths of the kids these days are literally illiterate. Do you buy this? Is it really that bad?

If it is, what do you think will be the implications for future life? Are we wizards actually going to be better off simply because we are literate, or will that not even matter anymore because AI will now do all the thinking for society? I feel like people of all generations are becoming even more like cattle just being herded around by the tech companies these days. Are the zoom zooms and alphas their final product? A permanent underclass for the elites to exploit and rape? Really if people can't even read anymore, I shudder to think what might happen.

Bro even in the middle ages scholars emphasized memory because books were so expensive. They had mnemonic "mind temples" they utilized in their imagination to better retain legal information.

Oftentimes the specifics of law was rote memorized because the actual legal charter was 100km away and you couldn't just pull a book out from your library. They were chained to desks.

Mnemonics only seriously declined in the 19th century, exactly when books proliferated exponentially, and coincidentally right when the university system first dumbed down. Thats when actual specialized degrees started instead of students being expected to learn on their own.

Maybe they should have been working to amend the bodies of their civilizations with sounder systems of religion and government and economics that the memorizing of the details of the old systems would no longer be necessary? Wouldn’t this have been a wiser course than setting into memory the antiquated commands of old legal codes that from within a better society would have no place? I forgot where I found this latin sentence, but it is from a medieval author, and its sense is relevant:

Quorsum requireretur legum prudentia, cum abessent mali mores, ex quibus haud dubie bonae leges prognatae sunt? Whereto would be required the prudence of the laws, when evil habits would be absent, from out of which not doubtfully good laws are derivative?

And even (((Thomas More))) in his proto-communist Utopia makes his hero Hythlodaeus (a greek pun meaning: distributor of nonsense) speak the following regarding the Utopian islanders:

leges habent perquam paucas. sufficiunt enim sic institutis paucissimae. quin hoc in primis apud alios improbant populos, quod legum interpretumque uolumina, non infinita sufficiunt. ipsi uero censent iniquissimum; ullos homines his obligari legibus; quae aut numerosiores sint, quam ut perlegi queant; aut obscuriores quam ut a quouis possint intelligi. They have very few laws. For thus do very few fit their purposes. That this firstly near other peoples do they disapprobate, that not even infinite volumes of laws and interpreters suffice. They themselves however account most wrong, any men to be bound by these laws, which either may be more numerous than so that they may be able to be read; or more obscure than so that from whomever they may be able to be understood.

These were nearly medieval writers and in them we find disesteem for the structure of the old traditional legality then surviving in their own time. I wonder what they would have thought at hearing of scholars being “chained to their desks” copying to mind sentence after sentence of older legal decision? And here in conceptual sympathy with them I can ask: what is the purpose in rote memorizing almost infiPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

I'm curious what the covid-19 vaccination rate is like among wizards.

Personally, I was the only one in my immediate and extended family to not get the vaccine or boosters. No doubt influenced by the normie propaganda, I faced a lot of harassement and pressure from my mother.

Knowing my family, I would also probably have been uninvited from family gathering for not having the vaccine but since I stopped seeing them 2 decades ago, it was a moot point.

>During the Battle of Khaybar, Hazrat Bishr(ra) also ate the poisoned meat alongside the Holy Prophet(sa), which was given to them as a gift by a Jewish female. When Hazrat Bishr(ra) swallowed a piece of the meat, he had not yet moved from his place when all of a sudden, his facial complexion changed and became like telasaan – a cloth which was predominately black in color. The pain was so severe, that for an entire year he was unable to turn over in bed without assistance and eventually, he passed away in this painful state. It is also stated [in other narrations] that the poison was so deadly that he had not yet moved from his place when after a short while of eating the meat, he passed away.

>The Prophet, in his ailment in which he died, used to say, "O `Aisha! I still feel the pain caused by the food I ate at Khaibar, and at this time, I feel as if my aorta is being sliced from that poison."
>Aisha reported: I saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, as he was dying and he had a cup of water, which he would dip his hand into and wipe his face with water, then he was saying, “O Allah, help me with the agonies of death!”

Hazrat Bishr and the Holy prophet. Two men who ate poisoned meat prepared by a Jew, two men who died as a result of trusting them.

God communicates to the Muslims and to all the rest of the world, that no matter what despicable acts Jews do, they are 'invincible'. Why? Because 'God chose them above all the world'.
He killed and laid waste to the Hamites, and he'll kill and lay waste to everything else. Why? Because he favors Jews.

The only conceivable way to change that adoration is by changing God's mind. But remember, the prayer of a Jew is superior to the prayer of a non-Jew in the eyes of God by virtue of the fact that he favors Jews more than he does everyone and everything else.

Canada got rid of the D-glucuronolactone in the original Monster and Monster Zero Ultra. How does this make you feel wizzies? Imo that was one of the defining ingredients in the Monster energy blend, and taking it out makes Monster not too dissimilar from every other energy drink on the market.

This is one of the most medically illiterate posts I've seen here in a while.In the age of free information we live in this stuff is flabbergasting. Carbohydrates do not cause diabetes, excess calories leading to obesity can cause diabetes. Also, protein and part of fat also break down into glucose. Finally, the saturated fat in bacon actually worsens insulin resistance. The only correct thing in this post is that starches and carbohydrates convert to glucose in your bloodstream.

i've seen a few wizards who don't seem healthy.

is too bad because being healthy is easy once you know what matters.
the practice of being healthy i have reduced to managing of habits:

you constantly manage your habits. you find out what they are by doing the opposite of being in autopilot. manual flight. then you imagine the long term consequences of each habit. then you decide if you want those, the development of a desired state. keep the desirable habits, reduce all those you don't want through constant attention on your habits.

as you do this you might stumble upon ways to improve upon the desirable habits. this is almost already doing the next thing, which is finding good new habits to practice and slowly wondering when you have time to do them.

it is up to you to be healthy, it is an option, you can make this happen if you so choose. health is one choice away.

that's amazing. currently i am not really running but doing 2 or more 30-60min walks per day but what you do i believe to be even better because when you go fora run you sweat more.

yeah i have noticed the same thing, when i exhaust myself a bit early in the day, i can make way better use of the day. i am in the process of slowly adjusting myself to getting up earlier to around 7am after being a nightowl for many years, i believe this helps too because the human body is somewhat of a plant and benefits from being exposed to natural sunlight. life at night is possible but i believe humans are meant to be up during the daylight to get sunshine on the skin.

i finally found a way to manage dealing with the flood of information of this age and be able to focus on things, which felt almost impossible to me. it is a simple system of textfiles. when something interests me i press a hotkey, simple script runs, which is the fastest way for it to get a textfile. then when i am bored i press another hotkey and one random of these textfiles from the main folder opens. why random? because it is faster then trying to decide when i don't have a plan. i tried systems of priority and accounting for available time, it sucked and slowed down the flow. when a random file gets opened, i write one entry with the current date (hotkeyed). i do this dozens if times per day. i noticed that this uses more of my brain, the conscious AND the unconscious because i get stray ideas throughout the day about files i just glanced at for a few seconds. i never try to solve a file, i only care about the next step, which eliminates most of my stupid habits of procrastination, overwhelm, gridlock, perfectionism, overplanning and more. when i feel a file is done, i move it into the discardfolder via another hotkey and a celebration video or audio plays randomly from the celebrationfilesfolder. i wish i had this all my life.

"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.

i write a lot like that and it invigorates me and helps me distribute my time wisely on the things and people i care about. writing to me feels like doomscrolling but only with things that are positive and interesting to me. like granny in front of a slot machine i do it to enjoyably pass the time when i am uninspired. it feels like a scaffolding which i use to climb from thing to thing throughout the day, helping me to make good use of the short human life and (g)row enjoyably on my own stream of content consisting of nothing but the things i believe deserve my attention. no bloat, no spam, no advertisement, no propaganda, no psyops, no degeneracy, just puzzled stares of people who wonder why this man as unkempt as someone who is genuinely homeless can type so fast. it is both peak adult discipline and pure childlike exploration. based on that i am expecting that you are probably experience your capabilities growing.

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.

what might help you is building systems that remember your worries for you and allow you to have worries and make decisions based on them without having to have them running in the head.

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.
