Do you read much? I find that people who read a lot tend to be able to write more competently.

My biggest problem is that I'll mispronounce the most basic things (incognito as indigo) because I've only read the words.

I also have a severe speech impediment, it's sometimes worse some days than others and I have 0 control over when it flares.

>>159031
I get the sudden pitch changes as well and sentence screw ups. I'm pretty sure it was the a combination of the mold in my home, being beat way too much, and being exposed to one too many toxins throughout my life.

Try speaking fairly slowly and thoughtfully, taking short pauses. Normans hate it, but they won’t hold it against you.

I took up journaling everyday, then a poem everyday, then a story everyday. Cultivation is, by itself, a worthy pursuit.

I really don't think there's any good reason to let yourself decay. Death comes for all, but before it does I know wanted more from life. I'm taking control back from my mind. I won't let myself be some victim or blame people anymore.

It's not like I can do it all the time, but that doesn't matter. I do my best, I got results, and it feels like I'm living in a different world.

Leads to Cultivation:

tl:dr- use words and images that make you feel good whenever you can, the repetition wires it into your brain overtime. You'll get results eventually, painful thoughts wire twice as fast so the natural state of man isn't that great. It can be overcome by letting go of the words you ascribe to as 'you' and finding new words/images to associate with. This alters your personality- the old you no longer exists. This is growth.

https://www.kapilguptamd.com/kapil-gupta-podcasts/

tl:dr- see reality-as-is instead of trying to build imaginations around what reality 'should' be. Two illusions of humanity:

1)We believe we can control the mind

2)We think we have time

I do not consider you to be mentally healthy right now if you are just going to feel worse because isolation.

Your psychological needs are worrying.

i don't really try to do anything…

I dont

How do you stay mentally healthy while having people or really anyone to talk to? People around make me feel like hell. No people around and I'm fine.

None because I'm not a traditionalist my dude

2010s were so terrible I can't even think of a real top 5 list of "best video games" and that's before getting into the exponential increase in feminism and other antisocial "do whatever feels good" liberal bullshit.

Antisocial and asocial are different.

Utilitarians are usually vegans. Those with that much time to think about it at least.

>>161848
If the utilitarian moral framework is being motivated purely by individual pragmatism why not just act as an egoist? Or are these people taking the position that the ends of their utilitarian beliefs don't really matter and it's just an elaborate way to gain self-righteous emotional satisfaction?

>>161851
You just do whatever makes you happiest like any other entropy slaves. For people who have high levels of empathy that's helping people, for people that are narcissistic psychopaths they go into finance or something and steal old ladies retirement checks to glorify their own egos. People just do what they do, believe what they believe. There's no reason a belief in the mechanistic nature of the universe should dictate those people all share their other beliefs.

Religion works best when others also follow the religion. As we live in a "do whatever, fuck everyone else" time, religion is a pale imitation of its previous self.

Two things I should add and clarify. There may be treatment in the 900-1500 range, but they're considered inferior and prone to breaking. It may be needed as a last resort.

The other is that my mom may end up caving in and paying for it due to the unexpected nature. My parents are financially secure and my dad saved pretty well. My dad will have some understandable resentments about his wife paying this, and my mom is very generous and loving in nature (says the neet, go figure), so I think she will end up simply paying for this, leaving me the opportunity of playing nurse during the crucial recovery phase where new bone has to grow without dangerous exertion or falls interrupting it.
Still, I don't want to put this strife between my parents, and even if mom does pick up this hefty tab whole-hog (younger brother, technical owner, may contribute some but tl;dr isn't in a good position either) I want to make sure there's money set aside for his other knee.

Maybe you could say you've been taking care of a sick relative all these years. I had great luck with a temp agency (back in 2006, USA). It was general, unskilled office work. I worked at the same office for years. Also, night shift jobs are often easier to get into.

Best of luck from a fellow thirty-something NEETwiz!

this post reminds of a time when my brother-in-law turned me down for a programming job because he didn't think I was competent, only to later sit at a table with him and one of his employees who he was stressed out was leaving him for another job. This guy was 10 years younger, married, and had all his hair still. fml

too bad that will be automated soon according to business leaders, but then again I see Wanted adds on the back of trucks, buses, and fast food, and retail stores I go to. I'd take one of those jobs but my dad would be angry at the money he wasted on my education for me to take some wage slave job. Instead I got to find a wage slave job that has some semblance that it will evolve into a career.

>>161828
Yeah but.. should not person do what it wants to do to live happy life? like.. why I should so something only because other human being thinks I should do it? Fuck that shit. I need to go my own way

There's so much demand for developers that people fresh out of a two-week bootcamp are hired with premium wages. There are housewives writing react applications and zoomers in high school making mobile apps. Anyone that isn't taking advantage of the tech bubble is an idiot. It has never been easier to learn and to make money by typing text on a computer. I seriously feel bad for the poor saps that do manual labor or stack shelves because they're too stupid to work with abstractions.

During the fairly early heydays of the YouTuber era, there was a time where I somewhat toyed around with the idea of doing similar not just for monetary gain, but for a sense of purpose & to perhaps establish my own little community. It wasn't until 2013/2014, where I'd often find myself daydreaming of how it all might work, but before too long, even back then, I'd then remind myself of the simply cold, hard realities of the matter as described perfectly by these two wizzies, >>161690 >>161705

>I follow several Youtubers who have been pretty active for a decade and they never make it because they're fucking boring and only burgers like myself would ever watch some ugly guy playing an old game, giving sparse comments on a monotone voice.

Yep. With my startling lack of personality or original ideas, this is all it would have amounted to for me. On top of this, I live in quite a small home with my parents and, as a result, never really had the space necessary to stream and or make let's play, even when I still entertained the idea of doing so. I've got that sort of space now, but, beyond simply ditching the idea ages ago, the anxiety of putting myself out there is just too much to get past. Even if I did, like you said, I'd just be another boring asshole droning into a mic, while playing some uninteresting game or two, so there's really no point in expending the effort to just be another forgettable cunt adding to an already far oversaturated landscape. Even so, in some sense, it still feels like I missed the boat on my generation's "thing", in the same way I feel like I missed the boat on bitcoin, similar to how older people feel like they missed the boat by not investing in Microsoft. Even in the early days of streaming & lets plays however, I would've never made it. Perhaps I would've managed to attract a small & committed base of fans had I actually possessed the means of doing it back then, but beyond that, this sort of thing was never meant for a wizzie like me.

As an aside, it still blows my mind how much Youtubers, and such, actually get paid for doing nothing more than sitting around and playingPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

It isn't luck that determine what is and isn't successful.

Got to learn the rules of the game to play it will.

It might be doable, but it's hard nowadays. People expect to see your face and you need to present yourself as sociable, funny and such. It kind of annoys me how the internet got so tied to real life in every sphere.

This. You would need to consistantly draw people in. With either luck/memes, mad skills or by being their internet friend. Possibly all.

One day you will realize that everything material and even immaterial is /pol/. This is a political, ethnic and spiritual war you find yourself in. The understanding of /pol/ is the understanding of life and the divine itself.

>>161756
I realize you are shitposting, but the idea that /pol/ is anywhere near actually spiritual in any sense is laughable. That would be the equalent of calling someone who knows 2+2=4 an actual bona fide mathematician.

Based. This means wizards are being made.

>and young people are fearful of marriage having seen so many fail
They're right on that but I fail to see how that would increase the number of celibates as normans have more sex outside marriage than not. But anyway, we can't expect an honest explanation from the washington post.

IMO, the obnoxious r9k faggots have it right on this matter. Now that all moral sanctions on succubi have been lifted, they're free to pursue the most attractive men with no commitment and leave the others behind. Almost any single succubus can get a harem of orbiters of her own with relative ease these days and select the more attractive men, especially with the internet. And dating apps just make it easier for succubi to just go straight to the more attractive guys looking for easy sex.
