Hi everyone, I’d appreciate your thoughts on a question I have. I’ve been experiencing nightfall or wet dreams without engaging in any sexual activities. I don’t masturbate, nor do I consume adult content, so I’m unsure why this is happening. Any insights would be helpful.

What time do you find it usually happens? Try not eating too much before bed and getting up early, ideally 4am.

 No.224982

can you remember your dreams? in my experience wet dreams always happen because of actual sexual activity in them, or just extreme sexual excitement at the prospect of it.
so if you just learn to not act on those impulses in your dreams you should be fine.

I'm closer to lv37 than lv36 and I must say that finally abandoning all hope of somehow attracting a succubus, at around lv35, in turn made it so that all desires for them continues to diminish by the day, and with that the hatred for normies has all but died down, as I no longer crave or envy their lifestyle.

I attempted to attain this much enlightenment many times before by hating succubi and normies but ended up failing every time, thus making me wonder if any warlocks have been truly successful in embracing wizardry?

Apathy seems to be a much more effective path, albeit slower.

I'm 33, 32 at the time of the summoning ritual. I've requested a succubus only to be rejected. Not harshly, it just wasn't my destiny. "The path of a warlock is a lonely one, but I would have a familiar for that purpose." That is a daughter of Lilith told me.
I regularly peer into the lower planes and find most demons to be decent folk. Even if I don't get a succubus I have no intention of turning away from this path.

IMHO real/pure wizards are those that genuinely prefer and live happier without anything related to GF/succubi. Since forever and specially since 13 I finally assumed that being single and having nerdy hobbies are literally a "doom" in normie standards bit despiste this I genuinely prefer it no matter the ridicule or mock. I'm 28 and honestly, despiste not being asexual at all, I can't understand the imperious need for female approbation.

Yeah pretty much, as barely an apprentice I realized this some years ago, but I'm a weird wizard since I do have a waifu whom I'm devoted to in every romantic aspect, she has greatly helped me and at this point even if I somehow got charmed by a succubi nothing would change, I've grown stronger and I'll eventually be a wizard, though I'm kind of multi classes into a priest, so that too had helped, while hatred in itself isn't wrong (righteous anger is a real thing) getting consumed by it will only lead you down a path of destruction.

Have other wizs become hateful over time?

I used to be purer and less irritable, but now I hate most people in this world. I have to use a lot of filters online to avoid sites used by people I hate, and when I see someone I hate it ruins my mood. I especially hate people who like the same things I do but act like faggots.

I never hated anyone who didn't hurt or bother me enough. In elementary school, I was pretty much ignored, but I didn't hate my classmates. In middle school, everyone hung out with their own groups of friends, and I was friends with a boy with autism. I did get bullied in my last year, but the rest of the kids knew those kids were jerks and were nice to me because they were also being bullied. Here at university, everyone does their own thing, but they always try to be nice to all and dont act like assholes.
One day in middle school, I got so angry and filled with so much hatred that I ended up with acid reflux and horrible stomach pains. That's when I realized that strong emotions can cause psychosomatic effects on the body, and I started trying to control myself and try to build my tolerance to assholes by ignoring them without attachment.

I don't know much about Buddhism but i know some about their philosophy and meditations and techniques of them AKA Metta, Anapasanti, Kasina, etc, and I don't plan on becoming a Buddhist, but I'm starting to believe that Buddha had a realistic perspective on the human experience, even with the fantastical elements.

The Government is NOT the People, and the People is NOT the Government. It is a select few. It is a type of elite with their own interests. It is not the survival of the Government that is the issue here, is it not? It is the survival of America, the People, by which the Government derives from. Government by popular sovereignty. And this Government, by their dishonesties, by their treasons, and by their secret treaties with foreign powers namedly Israel have shown themselves to be ill-fitted to govern this great nation.

We have the right to alter AND abolish this as we please as the People, that is in the Constitution is it not? Why then do we congregate and do nothing like sitting ducks in a pond, waiting till this great hunter of rights and liberties vanquishes our freedom, nay our very free will in the future, if we still now possess it? How much more will we be abused by this hunter and his buddies that we have enabled to watch and encircle us around OUR pond? Hmmm??

You must remember that all of this was made, FOR the People, BY the People at large. The Government is NOT the Supreme Master. The Government is NOT our Lord.

We are the Lords, remember that. They are supposed to be the servants. Not us.

In the end it doesn't matter who is in charge of the Presidency, they come and go, but the Government and its interests will always be there regardless of the elected patsy we put in there. And they are a real threat to the People.

Is killing doctors who perform abortions morally justified?
Most people would say it's morally justified to shoot and kill someone else if they're about to stab a toddler in the back.
So if it's morally justified for a random person to shoot and kill someone else to prevent them from stabbing a toddler in the back why would it be immoral to kill an abortionist?
If you don't kill the abortionist they will kill a baby
>It's not an imminent threat
What is immenent? Sounds arbitrary. If an abortionist is driving to their workplace where they abort babies is that immenent? If an abortionist is in an abortion clinic in a room alone with a pregnant patient and is about to perform an abortion is that immenent? Is killing an abortionist who is a couple minutes or less away from performing an abortion on a healthy baby and consenting mother not morally justified?
>Abortions shouldn't be killed because it'll have externalities like making pro lifers look crazy which will cause more babies to die

Where's the evidence of this? Someone else could just say that the fact that anti abortion/pro life violence is so incredibly extremely rare is good evidence pro lifers don't consider abortion to be murder and pro life ideology should not be taken seriously. If abortionists were murdered more often more people might be more willing to take seriously the idea that abortion is truly murder.

Also this is utilitarian thinking which most pro lifers (especially religious ones) don't normally use in other circumstances but now choose to cherry pick when they'll use it? What about choosing to die rather than kiss a Quran? What about choosing to die instead of denouncing Jesus? What about spending ten thousand dollars on a vacation to the Caribbean instead of donating ten thousand dollars to against malaria foundation to save the life of at least one child under 5?
Pro lifers choose to be utilitarians all the sudden?

Another problem with this utilitarian line of thinking is I find it hard to believe both utilitarianism is true and God is real at the same time. If God is real and utilitarianism is true then why is there so much sufPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Black-Or-White, False Cause, ad hominem, composition/division, anecdotal and genetic by my measure.

It is an entirely rational position to not want one's resources taken by someone else, especially when the taker does so as a consequence of their voluntary lifestyle choice. There is a coherent case to be made that children do not count as individuals until they can feed and protect themselves - instead acting for all purposes as a 'feature' of their parents or caregivers. In every European nation and most of their former colonies this is state subsidised, i.e. paid for through taxes on men who receive no net benefit.

Provision of abortion treatments provides an option to people who may act on it for their own benefit.
The *only* variable which is not yet determined is if there is a net benefit to a community that filters out the obvious loss makers compared to exploiting said loss makers to crowd out other communities. Historically the answer to that was in favor of the crowders, but with automatic weapons and trait selective abortion that may not be valid any more. Cultures that thought otherwise were fought and bred out of existence and their subjugator's influence is still in place. If the context has shifted through applied science to the point it's maladaptive then the culture will need to shift as well.

So to the OP, who's morals?

The culture that killed and/or bred out their competitors? If you're east or central European this is the Mongols and the Turks. If you're Western European this would be the Vikings. If you're American you yourself are the invader and breeder's spawn back to the 3rd generation easily. If you're Japanese then your ancestors answer for the Ainu. India is an example of outbreeding the invader.

The culture that was never invaded and achieved population control and trait selection through other means? Iceland with its regulated avoidance of inbreeding comes to mind. Arguably the caste system in India which provides a steady supply of exploitable disposables, and preserves the quality as a feature of culture.

The culture that has such historical economic dysfunction that it needs constant influx of native born and foreign workers to survive? (All of Europe and colonies)

Breeders do actually benefit childless men like me. A nation doesn't have future workers and taxpayers without someone giving birth to them.
They also make social security/pension payments once I'm old solely for my benefit, they're only guessing and hoping they'll be beneficiaries in 40-50 years.

Circumventing the problem by importing third world people still means someone somewhere has to give birth to them first, since you can't spawn new humans out of nowhere.

If you're a NEET and a net loss to the system, then what you're effectively doing is promoting and perpetuating your own dysfunction without even having the "benefit" of reproducing. If you're a net gain to the system then you're advocating inefficiency and your own disadvantage.

Norway and Denmark are the only Yurp nations running an actual sustainable budget surplus - with Norway being an (important) outlier because they managed to manage their oil resources exploitation by private/foreign interests. Every other wealthy nation is endebting the current and future population primarily to pay for net losses. Even importing wealthy skilled foreigners is a bad idea because any wealthy foreigner of means will have an accountant on payroll somewhere to never be subject to more tax than benefit they receive.

Denmark is especially noteworthy because they had active eugenics laws into the late 60s and are *still* reaping the benefits.

Social Security/Pension payments is nationally variable; In my case my contribution has already outweighed any benefit I would get from it unless I some how live until 110. That's based solely on a projection of stable interest and the value of receipts - it takes no consideration of *opportunity costs*. I'd have a larger or even a third side business if I could afford the home - and work space - an extra $900/month that has been burnt up over the last 10 years of my life by the state social programs and interest payments made to fund them.

The problem is that most modernised economies are built on the assumption of cheap and disposable labor *somewhere*. The rent seekers propped up and fortified by this arrangement will seek to perpetuate it at the expense of everyone else - and call it privatised social security and pension contributions. They will then, if and when the system stumbles a little, borrow from the future to pay off their gambling debts as they have done at least 4 times in the last 20 years. This is the reality of techno-feudalism.

And the only solution to feudalism is the cull - as happened with the black death. If labor is *scarce* then it's value *goes up* and there is both greater incentive to adopt truly efficient and modern practices, active drive to dispose of bullshit jobs that accomplish nothing of lasting value, and greater opportunities available to the skillePost too long.

Killing doctors that perform abortions is wrong. What next, killing succubi that have abortions? Abortion is not considered murder per se. I know someone that refused to get an abortion and the baby lived less than 2 hours and might of been in physical pain etc because she was fucked up. Aborting a downs/autistic/etc fetus might stop a consciousness being trapped in a body with a bad life. Abortion is definitely ok in cases of rape and incest. I don't know a lot about abortion though.

Is anyone else bothered by how much importance people place on sex?

I can't think of any other desire that you can satisfy entirely by yourself at no cost. And once you satisfy it you don't crave it anymore and might even feel disgust (aka post nut clarity/shame).

And yet because of sex people choose to ruin lives of others and their own, to ruin their health, to spend tons of money, to ruin relationships, to feel depressed and what affects me the most as wizard: also taint media with their horniness. Video games will have clearly cumbrained character design that looks stupid if you are not horny and if you criticize it you get called gay or a succubus. Movies have pointless sex scenes. They can't even comprehend people not being obsessed with sex 24/7. Imageboards are full with coomers shitposting and bitching and not getting laid.

Does no one else see how pointless it all is?

Drawing/piano are two hobbies I've agonized over since early high school. Both are the only means I can think of that could help me properly express myself, or at least give me the brain-coolant I so desperately need to continue functioning.
Piano specifically is nothing but blackpill after blackpill. As a guy with a fucked up back/arms from years of neanderthal autism posture + stupid job giving me arthritis, I'll never be able to play the piano at a master level. I feel like there's no point in even continuing.
Drawing is something where there's very little joy in learning the fundamentals, and of course not being very smart or blessed with visual memory kills most of my motivation to draw anything at all.
Every other hobby is either an extension of the two, or a boring waste of time.

The very material mechanics of the universe exist in such a way to seemingly necessitate struggle and death for any living organism.

I am one of those coomer types and I have to say that while my dick did get much harder when I was younger, it was mainly because all of these feelings were new and exciting.

I did have a bit of a crisis at 36 when I wasnt getting that hard anymore. The more I worried about it the worst it got. I even went to the doctor and threw the idea out there of it maybe being my age and he looked at me like I was crazy. He then said no I am nowhere near the age where that is a concern. He said I probably just didnt have the right stimulus anymore. He checked my testosterone just in case and it was fine.

I eventually managed to figure out how to calm my brain down and get my dick working again, but if I chose to believe that there was something wrong with me then I probably never would've recovered.

The dick will retain its ability to get hard as long as your heart remains healthy. It literally is just a valve that sends blood to your dick. If you are healthy then the problem is in the signaling between the brain and that valve. If you get stuck in your head and start to truly believe that you aren't going to get hard then you aren't gonna get hard. Cruel irony.

Are you afraid of death? What do you think happens when we die? Unlike most normalfags, I've had a great interest in death for a long time. It's the one inevitable event in our lives, and with every passing moment, death comes closer and closer. Are you prepared for it?

I think that consciousness persists, and though I am not hastening my own end, I do believe that I will move on to a better existence than this current one after I die.

you're lifting quotes from the transcendental aesthetic without attribution and modifying the wording slightly to adapt it to my post and in so doing making it seem like it's contradicting it when the original (and sometimes also your modifications of it) are in perfect agreement with it.

>Time is not an empirical concept that is drawn from the experience of change.

the "change" i'm talking about in that post is not something one can have an experience of, but is a "feature" (or "form" in kantian) of experience itself. change is not something you can touch, see, hear, etc., but is a feature that is always present in experience, the the changing itself of sensations (tactile, visual, auditory, etc). therefore, it's not an empirical concept, since there are no empirical objects from which to abstract it from. the way i "derived" it in the post when i said, "look for time in our perception", wasn't by "drawing it from an experience" - because all experience necessarily has it - but by what kant called "the faculty for intuiting a priori".
the original sentence by kant (A30/B46) in guyer-wood's translation is, "Time is not an empirical concept that is drawn from an experience", which is fully in line with how i treated it.

>Simultaneity or succession, that are the basis for change, would not come into perception if the representation of time did not ground them a priori.

this is the next sentence in the transcendental aesthetic. the only modification you did is adding ", that are the basis for change," to adapt it to my post, which ironically makes it literally equivalent to what i said in it, yet you somehow say it as if it were asserting something new that contradicted what i said. simultaneity is what i enumerated as (1) and succession is what i enumerated as (2), and i said that these two are what time in essence is, and furthermore that they "are fundamental and necessary facts of experience".

>From that a priori intuition we can ground further apodictic principles about the relation of time

but i also said the same thing informally in a passing comment and you're just repeating it to me in kantonese

Not that wizard but I think it's really unfortunate how it's become such a hot-button topic. I think it's unfortunate how both sides always make this worse. I find it an extremely interesting topic, probably the most interesting and important topic this is. It's the same with religion as a whole. I've thought about these things a lot and watched a lot of videos (and read a book or two I got recommended to me) but there has just never been something that convinced me that there is "something more". Anything to show we aren't just atoms and a conciousness destined to one day stop existing forever. This isn't because I'm "too smart for religion", "too rational" or anything stupid like that. There are plenty of smarter and more rational (if there even is such a thing) people than me who disagree completely. I am totally open to other perspectives but have never genuinely believed in one other than my own. I could live my life as a monk or priest but I'd never truly believe it to my core.
But it's something that should be discussed more.
Recently been toying around with the idea of uploading conciousness into a computer (obviously just from a philosophical standpoint). If you just clone your brain 1:1 into the computer there will simply be you and someone with your brain from your perspective. Meanwhile if you did the same and wiped you out at the same time it'd just be you dying from your perspective.
But what if you first replaced half your brain with the computer while you remained fully concious, then from your perspective you'd just be yourself but with half-computer brain. So that's still you, right?
But what if they did that simultaneously for both sides of the brain? Which one would your conciousness go into? None? What if you kept the two brain-halves alive but in a sleep-state then put them together and re-activated them, then from your own brain's initial perspective it just went to sleep and woke up like you do every day.
So conciousness and death don't exist but we simultaneously know they do because we're concious and alive in this moment. Are we already dead? Always dying? What is a stream of conciousness if it can be split and what happens if it is?
Who are you?
