my only escape is to find a work of fiction so rich, so layered, so voluminous, that it can sustain my immersion for an entire lifetime, thinking of some extremely long Anime, Manga, TV series or, Light novel.

I second this.
Writing longform fiction and doing worldbuilding is very satisfying. Plus even if you get tired of a particular story or genera you can use the same world to build new stories and keep going.
It is truly something that can keep you immersed for a lifetime.

No one starts out good.

You are correct that with practice you will gain what it takes and get better with time.
Treat your early stuff as just getting into getting your ideas and imaginatings out of your head and into a concrete form you can build on, revise, and return to.

I tried joining a few AVPD discords and it was… Underwhelming.
Most of them are already formed cliques and my experience was just monitoring the chats, expecting an opportunity to join in when it seems appropriate, but the opportunity never came.
What's worse, most of them seem to be pretty social. I'm not a complete NEET shut in but I struggle with basci social interactions. People on those discords had more or less vibrant social lives. And there are of course were succubi who, despite their so-called AVPD, maanged to date. I don't understand them. Are we on different levels of functionality? What's the point then? There was some fuck who told that he visited a concert. How? On some people who claim to club, even being DJs. A lot of people are even married and with children.
Are we having the same personality disorder?
Frankly, I also see a lot of posters on the AVPD sub who scratch their heads at those people too, so I'm not alone. Still, I wonder what's wrong with us vs them.
I also check other personality disorder subs for time to time to see my cousins, so to speak. I wonder why nobody in the narcissism sub bemoans the lack of social interactions if they are the worst out of all personality disorders. Makes the old noggin' thinkin', huh?

Likewise 10 years ago or something i came across a forum with people that had "AvPD" and all i remember they were all married and talking about their relationships and shit. It makes no sense to me. It seems like im in a whole different category and nobody else in the world has real social anxiety

>It seems like im in a whole different category and nobody else in the world has real social anxiety
i thought this too, but people see right through you.

at a job i had, i was acting in a way that seemed - to me - extremely crazy and alien.
but to my coworkers, they always just knew i was shy and anxious.

the people that seem the most normal to us, can relate to us to 100%.
it's just that we cannot relate to them AT ALL. how can this be?

we have some more walking to do. and time is short. when people get to know your age, acting like you do, they just smile.
they cannot take you serious. you're this age, and still like that? I REMEMBER HAVING BEEN LIKE THAT! THAT WAS WHEN I WAS 12!

very embarassing for us wizzies. let's do our best.
we keep postponing it. we keep going on the computer, we keep jacking off, we keep taking drugs/getting drunk.
we keep getting into arguments, we keep consuming media.
postponing the fall.

the fall from what?
into what?

 No.319633

>>319632
for me it's the computer. i go on it and feel warm, safe, secure, protected from the world.
if the computer wasnt there (very rare), it would have been alcohol or my phone, or masturbation, or theorizing, day dreams, fantasizing.

youd think homeless people have nothing to protect themselves, this is wrong.
i was walking through the city and saw a homeless man crying, standing alone, very timid, but with his phone to his ear. something there was playing (it was not a call). that would have been his safety, place of warmth, protection.

we cling to these things in order to not fall.
we must fall.
as long as we keep clinging, we are perpetuating our suffering.

>>319631
>>319633
You are completely on the wrong track here. There is no value in engaging with real life and the world at all, there is no value in enduring hardship and suffering. People do what they can to lessen the pain and they must hope for the best. By "falling" I guess you mean some nonsense about facing our problems head on. But we are already doing it, that's why we are using things like masturbation, alcohol or anime, to survive the battle. Without your safety blanket you will indeed fall but you won't be able to get back up again. You will fall to pieces and rot.

From a scientific point of view, i think it makes sense as simply a way to try to categorise and group people based on shared characteristics. Somehow society completely fails to actually achieve this goal.

Every personality test is like that. "Oh wow I'm X and look at these famous people they are X too I'm sooo coool" Most people have very boring personalities so they need these things to give their frail ego some feedback and encouragement.

>>319639
Psychology is just bullshit. It always was and always will be. It builds on wrong foundations, on some vague image of what a "healthy" individual should be like ideally according to the majority opinion. So everyone who doesn't care about human relationships and working get branded as dysfunctional automatically. But they don't really explain why everyone should be a worker drone who gets along with everyone else. So I just can't take it seriously. It's just the majority opinion getting forced onto everyone else who is a little different in some way. Tyranny of the majority indeed.

>There is no value in engaging with real life and the world at all
thats not the point
>there is no value in enduring hardship and suffering
there is no tollerance for suffering, suffering MUST disappear.
for this, we must face our pains and problems.
if you instead run off, you suffer. by not facing the things, you are suffering.
>we are using things like masturbation, alcohol or anime, to survive the battle
no, you use these things to shield the ego you're identified with, the causation of suffering.

Really don't want to but about to spend like $200 bucks on a load of 3 work jeans because all my work pants are falling apart one after the other because I have put off pants shopping for a year.
Normally I would just get cheaper pants but these ones have a groin gusset so they should be more durable in that area and be extremely comfortable. That combined with the heavier fabric and much more robust seams means these pants should last me for years. Which means I won't have to go pants shopping for years.
If they don't work out I will go back to buying a new couple of sets of walmart pants every 6 months.

Gonna go out on a limb here and say that you're waiting for someone to ask "Then what is?" so you can say some shit like "The demiurge and the nature of humanity itself imposes permanent suffering on all life and death is the only escape!"

Sleep apnea isn't an issue to take lightly. It's suffocation, it inhibits proper sleep which afflicts every aspect of the body, and one of its peculiar side effects is substantially hightened cortisol production as the body believes someone is trying to murder it every night. It is a result of the wizard's physical characteristics and so surgery can rectify it.

Checced video descriptions of one YouTuber and now the Google Docs links on Android are clickable. On PC and I'm sure on Android, long links that weren't even shown in full in the description couldn't be opened the past. Either Google changed something or the author changed something. My reply to someone's comment with link to the file (it was tests) also vanished. I found the link on Facebook (using relative's account for research). Removing replies to comments by the author of the channel themself — seems unlikely even technically. But who knows, lazy to search. Don't know if it's clickable on PC now. Time to archive these links and put them in word file to my future pdf file upload with other tests found on the other topic elsewhere. So that if videos are deleted, instead of finding links to YouTube videos in archive with test links in the description, someone would stumble across them on archive.org, maybe even through Qwant search results. Putting links in the description of pdf upload on archive.org may give illusion of piracy, even though the author shared them for free. Two of my uploads of Pokemon books got deleted for copyright. Though I've put long descriptions with videos from the social media that I've archived and no problem. But it was more self-explanatory.

Decided to upload a mixtape I had on my HDD to Internet Archive. DatPiff: site dead, no direct link to look at the year of upload, compiler's YouTube channel: link to his site that doesn't work, archive shows such mixtape wasn't there. Then I remember seeing one song with the mixtape's cover on YouTube. Search the name, voilà. Another YouTube channel affiliated with the compiler uploaded it. However, no year. I know about further volumes, about MySpace being on the back cover. Project of DatPiff being uploaded to Internet Archive stopped after a virus was found. I looked at the rar file — downloaded by myself in 2013. I looked at the cover metadata — it says about 2010 as creation year. Back cover has no year, Google and Qwant — no info. I played Saya no Uta and some files said 2003 or something even though I installed the game like 15-20 years after. Guess the image data doesn't lie. MP3 files data are empty.

>Weird how this, ie ancient software and computer users are common on wizchan and adjacent sites. I hate modern tech so much it's unreal.
I'm in my 30s and must have spent at least a third of my life in front of a computer, but recently I've realized I'm not particularly interested in technology, and never was. If what I have just works, then progress, change and new features don't appeal to me, and are an annoyance more often than not.
I too was a windows 7 user until last year, when I made the switch to linux as my main system, with a windows 10 virtual machine to run that one piece of software I need for work.
Not sure why this is common among people like us. Most of us spend a lot of time using computers and the internet, so maybe our preferences are more specific than the preferences of a more casual user, and there are less pressures in our lives forcing us to let go of those preferences and switch to something else.

It's a T520 with a sandybridge quadcore i7 and 16gb of ram (max). It does indeed play mkv and 10bit files smoothly as long as they were encoded in 1920x1080, not 4K because it's being all software decoded. Surprisingly it's not as slow as you'd think it is, but it does heat up quite a bit (I get 65-75 degrees temps when playing modern anime files) and that's with turboboost disabled already. For general web browsing and light usage I think it still holds up pretty well, beware of singlecore depending applications like most websites javascript (Pixiv is a perfect example, with more than 10 pixiv tabs it does start lagging a bit)

>low-end/retro games you enjoy on it?

Last I played many years ago was Rabi-Ribi and some rally game, Dirt 3 and GRID Autosport. Also TF2. It played them all at playable frames.

>as a backup Computer

They're cool if you can get them for cheap ($50 or less). Even older Thinkpads, pre Sandybridge era are even cheaper but the jump in cpu speed was noticeable, and those older ones use ccfl tubes for backlight so they'd be pretty worn out by now. I don't think there's much difference in real world speed between Intels 2nd gen up to 10th gen, they only catched up to AMDs Zen 3 and 4 around 12th gen (and later had the well known controversy of early failure oxidation for higher powered chips). But if I were you I'd go for at least >>320007 or something with a IPS screen. I had to upgrade mine to a TN 1920x1080, cost an eye and it's still nowhere near good enough as an IPS.

I want you to know that it is possible to get out of that habit and find another way to be. It will be difficult but it isn't beyond what you are capable of. We are creatures of habit. It is great that you know the cause of your overeating, the reality is that it takes a perspective shift to really make any lasting changes. I used to be an alcoholic and depressed wanting to die and the rest but change is possible. Educate yourself on proper eating and be aware that sadly there is a lot of misinformation out there about maintaining a healthy weight.

Do you need hobbies? You have to try break out of the cycle of falling back into the trap of just entertaining yourself with food and try to actively push yourself to try new things. You could learn to grow magic mushrooms and become acquainted with them. You could learn how to make natto and kimchi. You could make kombucha, that is a NEET hobby.

You could try look for music you like as it is possible to spend months just doing that. You can try be creative.
You can do anything but as schopenhauer says we want what we will but we cant will what we want. I say however that if we come to learn our nature we can steer ourselves in the right direction.

Have you read all the good manga? there is lots to do but as I said originally perspective shift is what matters most as the solution isn't just giving you something to be occupied with- the real solution is for you to walk along your path until you find a way to simply be content with existing.

Death is rest, not punishment:

However "misere" should be "miser" as the adjective miser in the singular vocative is miser, not misere. Misere in latin means three things: an adverb meaning "wretchedly", the active indicative perfect 3p of mittere (they have sent), the active imperative present 2s of miserere (pity!).

New neighbors from whom my parents buy potatoes left their auburn male cat for 3 days while they paid a visit to their village (internal migration). He had some food in their apartment building near their door and the door to the hallway was open/mostly open. Still, he was meowing, looked thinner, and even followed my mother to our flat (he got food). I remembered how one cat was tore apart by homeless dogs at night. Next day I asked my mother if those neighbors knew about it (it's more difficult to help a cat when there's more darkness and most people sleep — common sense). The cat was often left outside for the night as the owners would forget. Mother said they should know, at night I heard some cat sound for 1 second. In the morning, I asked how long have they been here, what's the chance of them knowing about that incident? My mother said she would notify them upon seeing. Today she has told the owner and it was new info for her, she started searching at the summer evening for her cat. He was on the tree at the very big height, using big ladder he was rescued by his male pet parent. His ass was wounded, somebody bit him.

Telling them beforehand only lessened his time there for a few minutes/hours. I have asked earlier whether there were some dogs outside. The answer was that it was not like during that tragic incident. If I knew about him being outside earlier, I would intervene earlier. But did I knew? Or it was said to me together with the 3-day info? I was told about it in the evening, I thought about common sense and my knee and leg was hurt giving me troubles to shit without pain in the leg. Thanks to sitting awkwardly and obesity. Head was with plenty of thoughts, so I've remembered about in the night. Then I was reminded about it next night (cat noise) and my second attempt to ask about the cat. I could've asked about writing through Viber perhaps even with the links about such tragic cases). Though I didn't know of they would write about it plus it would be common sense either way. I also remembered something similar when my mother said being too pushy could result in the owners thinking some services of watching for the cat being offered.

Cat's health is the priority. But I thought about common sense and my mother reassured my the cat is not sleepy outside like our cat of other owners (internal migration). Strong de ja vu and I still feel guilt. In broad daylight, cat's ass got hurt, some medical liquid was used and he's fine. Their neighbors were closer to that tragic event and didn't tell them. They've been for 3 months here. According to them, their village dog is like Hachiko. He's barking and waiting that the next route vehicle would have his owners coming from it. As the village people say, if he's barking and moving around energetically, then the route vehicle has arrived. Obviously, without his owners except for that one time (maybe there were others).

I was afraid that some hysteria would ensue and nothing would be done (like when my father goes into his ad hominem accusations frenzy mode). Also didn't know if they had their number. Asking further: see previous sentence. My mother also said to our neighbor (who died from cancer later on) about cats under the engine, they also could be near the exhaust system but there's no way to know about it. No opening the hood, loud noises by hand on the hood. Except for special blocking devices, but looks like nobody makes them. Nissan had a campaign in Japan about this and that's it. Sometimes I see such info in the local Telegram channels in this non-Asian country. Cat can even get serious burns. Looks like physical stuff and grief from human loss is the concept that my mother cares about. But not mental pain from art, toys, books complete wipeout. Hence, something deemed unworthy was thrown out without any memories about my warnings, any sufficient analysis, leading to mental trauma from irreversible material loss (in this plane).

day 1: thought about common sense and forgot about it; day 2: remembered about it in the second half of a day; day 3: asked about it in the morning taking common sense into consideration and possible complete decline of asking more; day 4: woke up from some cat's (perhaps another cat) noise, asked again; day 6 or something: mother gave the info which promted the owner to immediately search for her cat who happened to be in trouble. I had different experience with asking about some stuff, so who knows how often irrational people would react.

Nostalgia is probably not the right word. It's like a sadness adjacent feeling that you only get when you're suddenly aware of the passage of time. I just thought it's interesting how as someone with no societal interaction or life experiences computer files has taken the role of photos and memorabilia for me. I have comfy anime pictures, editing software I thought I'd use but was too lazy to learn, screencaps of imageboard posts I thought were deep then but is idiotic to me now.

Pros are they can handle the rain like a champ.
Cons are they could make my feet ultra sweaty and stinky.

Bait but I'll take it.

If you can't afford a home that can accommodate a large freezer, you pay more for "fresh" food and have to buy it more often.

If you then don't have a car, you are limited to transporting what you can carry or what is supported by public transport - meaning lower bulk savings.

If you then have to schedule specific shopping expeditions for food instead of having the option to fold it in to a return commute or other value creating task, you are wasting potential labour hours on survival.

If you then have to recover from the physical exertion, you are consuming more food and resources.

If you then have to pay on demand instead of by standing order for utilities, you pay more for the same service.

If you then can't afford a mortgage down payment, because you're spending more on survival costs, you will pay more in 10 years than a 10 year mortgage, without any real estate at the end of it.

and so on.

There's canned fish, you can easily have a serving of canned fish with vegetables and rice. You can do two grocery shops a week, having one fresh meat meal, one preserved meat meal and one canned meat meal.

Cars are expensive and require repairs. My battery will cost $300 to replace, you need a new $100 tyre a year typically, there's other parts that need replacing. You should put aside $1,000 NZD a year for car repairs, registration, WOFs, etc. You might save $10-20 a week on bulk item savings.

Mortgages are always more expensive than renting in the short term. If you invest the difference between mortgage and rent on the stock market, it comes to about the same as buying a house with a mortgage. And again, there's repairs with homes, and property tax, and insurance.

The advantage of having money is with dealing with problems before they get out of hand, that's where you save money. Getting a filling prevents a dental cap, stopping a leak prevents water damage. Getting your oil done on your car prevents the engine from burning out.

I'm right about boots. A good pair is $300 NZD and a cheap pair is $60 NZD. The cheap pair here lasts like half as long as the good pair. I know this because I go through many pairs of boots, you burn through them working demolition.

NZ has rents *lower* than mortgages?

Well congrats, you're the minority.
default in EU/UK is anything up to 50% less on a 15 year term mortgage with a 2 year fixed rate for the same grade of property (trust me bro, i've been working to break into landlording for the last year). Even factor in repair costs you come out ahead on mortgages - and can then do your suggested stock market idea.

Public transport - in most of my experience so far - work out more expensive than private car ownership. This is a big reason why big cities are having to artificially hinder car ownership since they cannot or will not reduce rail fares.

Boots in your case are a consumable then - clearly. Work boots in the context of, say, warehouse work would select in favour of quality, especially if there's an orthopaedic advantage. But fair enough - if you've got a consumption profile that genuinely doesn't benefit from a premium material/design, that's legitimate.

As for canned fish, that's highly geo dependent. The same weight of meat for the same fish can vary wildly depending how close to a shore you are. Having the option to exploit whatever is the optimal for the local economy is the relevant wealth advantage.

 No.320607

Yeah, probably, but "female autism" is not real, I don't even understand how it's a thing and why it's a handicap if it doesn't affect the succubus in question. It seems most of them can manage to work, have relationships and fulfilling social life, which begs the question how severe their autism is, and if it's autism at all.
Now, there are succubi like wogglebug love productions or whatever her name is. If she isn't a SSS tier sperg, I don't know who she is then.

Yeah I went to autistic support groups with them. They're typically more spergy than male autists, they'll just talk at you with a stream of consciousness.

>It seems most of them can manage to work, have relationships and fulfilling social life, which begs the question how severe their autism is, and if it's autism at all.


They can't manage work, they burn out trying to work exactly the same way men do. They try a few times and then retreat to NEETbux. They have a very high suicide rate too, not as high as the male autist suicide rate, but it's very high. Euthanasia providers have started commenting on how they're getting a lot of autistic succubi killing themselves through them.

What they do is typically just lounge around all day watching make up tutorials and reading books. They're often unironic husbandofags too, and they're total sex pests. They get off to the most horrendously vile and bizarre sexual fetishes exactly like men do. They get stuff like fetishistic attachments to cartoon characters or even physical objects.

They'll live with their parents until their 20s, at some point start living with their grandma. They get boyfriends because of course they do, but those boyfriends are the most soft coded guys you'll ever meet.

What happens eventually is they often start dating the elderly. In their 30s they'll get a boyfriend that's in his late 50s or even 60s, and as their partners age into a rocking chair and go to a retirement home, they'll get a new one. These autistic succubi functionally live and act like old ladies from the age of 18 onwards, and like that slow pace of life, so it works out for them.

 No.320615

>>320605
Yes.
While there are less than males (in many senses of the word) they most certainly exist and I have met several.
Usually their autism is on the more severe end of the spectrum, like what used to be called low functioning.
Those in the middle level of functioning often have other intellectual and physical disabilities.
Female high functioning autist are rare and ether "mask" super hard until they can't take it any longer and kill themselves, or lack self awareness to comic extremes.

Regardless they are universally unpleasant to be around.

I got invited to Amazon "vine". It's that program where they send you free stuff (to keep) and you just gotta review them and make sure they're not going to explode or something. It sounds like a penny slave grift thing like Mechanical Turk, but it actually seems kinda juicy. For one you're only obligated to review 60% of the items you get and you have like 3 months to do it. Then the item selection isn't total crap. I got a USB HDMI capture card coming tomorrow and I know it's good because it's the same generic chip they all use. There's other stuff useful to me related to what I've been searching for, like bicycle parts and photo equipment. Just gotta click on them and it takes you to the checkout for $0.00. Now that I'm part of it I can see which reviews on the site are made by other people who got the thing for free from Vine and some people are getting microwaves and xbox controllers and stuff.

There's work and there's larping - i've done both and more of the latter than I would have liked.

Adam Smith made a point about how if left to monotony and rote repetition, the mind and aptitude actually decline as they become less flexible and exercised.

10k of work into a skill that is just manual labour? you'll hit the ceiling of what your *body* can achieve well short of that. Mental labour is slightly different but even then, rote memorisation, bland repetition and so on simply make you optimised for the procedures. If the whatever it is (lets say drywalling) requires the same procedure with the same physical movements, you'll achieve "mastery" of it quite quickly if you are paying attention and correctly measure your progress as actually doing the task, instead of the accessory activities.

There's some 3rd level of flexibility where true aptitude lies which can apply to multiple fields, but it's developed incidental to a given field. A well organised mind with a good memory, effective record keeping habits and the correct physical exercises *behind* 1k hours of rote memorisation and physical practice lead to success.

Conversely, if your idea of study is SAT prep instead of Theory -> Verification -> Consolidation, all you've done is develop rote memorisation, which is barely useful given in 5 years most of whatever it is is likely to be superseded.

You've reactivated an old memory about a news story that had some brief discussion on former Wizardchan.
A hospital janitor, I believe his name was Marc Lepetier or Lepeltier, working in Scotland. He was not a virgin, but an unfounded rumor began to be circulated by the doctors, nurses, and other respectable higher staff at the hospital that he was a virgin. So they began harassing him, including in physical ways involving intentionally making his job harder, targeted spills, I think something about some other staff members physically restraining him and subjecting him to something–possibly some kind of medical test, though I doubt even nurses would do something involving blood drawing or other direct physical harm leaving physical evidence. It would probably have been nonintrusive if medically related.

He foolishly tried to take his case to the British courts as sexual harassment, instead of taking his case to the 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution. So he was made a laughingstock a second time over, was unable to find work in the British isles and had to retreat to France.

I have no doubt that the real reasons for his social abjection had to do with some behaviors on his end, he's a fucking Frenchman after all, and hospitals are notoriously bully-rich environments.

As I recall there were two or three Jezebel-orbiting blogs that also talked about the case, and in each and every one of them the enlightened liberal feminists chose to pour additional scorn on it. Particularly vicious was one blog by a practicing female lawyer, though I don't remember her legal specialty and think it was unrelated to sexual harassment.

This took place about 13 years ago and I cannot find a single extant archive, but I did manage to find an old r9k thread with a now-dead and useless link to the Scottish newspaper announcing the case being thrown out.

>Present my chud ideas as a post, as a disinterested third party, asking the AI to provide commentary and its thoughts

>AI says the writer is psychologically projecting feelings of insecurity and status anxiety
>Ask it to give any evidence from the text in defence of that
>Admits it can't and there's nothing
>Press it on why it would claim psychological insecurity and projection
>Starts a long winded answer about "navigating around difficult topics in an ethical way"
