What in the Alabama is this thread about Actualized at it's finest, trully -
I mean like, both of these responses are valid, but kinda miss the point of what I was trying to get at. Which is that ambition only has meaning within the confines of society, and all the money you'll ever make and all the stuff you'll ever create is only usefull as long as people continue going to their jobs, providing services and creating goods. This is kind of a common sense but if you're the type of individual that is hyperfocused on your goals and ambitions, you'll forget this and take it for granted. People working jobs = your lifestyle
-
All people from that other forum are complete lolcows, not worth paying even a second of serious attention to, other than for pure entertainment purposes. Although to be frank, it's the kind of entertainment for a more refined tastes, that's for sure
-
People on this forum have a very infantile view of regular jobs. Probably cause they are only looking at it from an individual perspective. However, even then, remember that all these people are collectivelly and directly responsible for YOUR quality of life as well. Without all these "slaves", you'd become a slave to nature, having to fend for yourself, for literaly everything. Stone Age style
-
Nothing for me. I'm perfect. Things can (and will) only go downhill from there
-
Yeah there is reason to be poor whatsoever, other than probably 10k of them I have realized lately btw that absolute majority of people's ambitons could be ended if someone just gave them a million or 2 dollars. I bet most people here are like that as well, including you lol
-
This is all true, mind and body always naturally find their ways to cope, forget, shift attention to something else and generally survive. But the default state is always lack of some sorts or pain, which then needs to be taken care off. That is one of the main factors fueling my belief in philosophical blackpill. LOL
-
I also live a pretty easy life materially speaking, compared to other countries, but my point was that life sucks in general. No matter which way you look at it. You don't even have to compare your life to the worst existence has to offer. Althought I do think it can get pretty tolerable once you get majority of your needs met, and also better moments definitely do stand out in the sea of shittiness
-
My experience of life is that life mostly sucks. Sucks ass, in fact, therefore is it any wonder that we attribute these qualities of wonder, excitement and curiousity to children, a group of beings that haven't experienced anything yet
-
I used to think the same, but actually it wasn't harder to survive 100s of years ago in pure economic terms (I'm not talking about overall living standards), it was actually easier. Don't get fooled by all the technologies we have, we can't afford shit nowadays. The only times that were economically worse off than the times we're living in, would probably be the Great Depression.
-
That's BS. You don't really actually control your life. I know that stating this on a self improvement forum makes me look like a sore thumb, but it's true. Lol
-
It probably is for many people. Maybe most people. I don't know. But I think it's not for me, and I think most people are just conditioned to want it. You could be commited to your partner and commited to raising children even without getting married. Many things we think we want are really just slowly massaged into our heads since we're born, without us realizing. I don't know, I kind of feel like it's not my choice to make whether I go out this world alone. People make it seem like everything is your responsibility and in your control, but some people are more suited for long term relationships and having kids than others, people's brains are wired differently. I don't personally feel like I am really suited for that, so yeah my opinions could change and how I view things could change of course. And I'm not saying your reason isn't valid. But the fact is, whether I change my views or not, me not really being up to the task mentally will most likely never change. Much like this economy and other factors. Like, these are probably constants, not variables. If they really do want the children more, I don't really understand why, since they are the ones bearing the brunt of all the suffering that comes from bringing the child to this world, child rearing and all that other stuff. Yet they are the ones who want it more? It's very ironic, but could be true. I do. Can't really help it, it's just how this world functions makes me this way
-
Yeah I would say that's what I think. Otherwise people wouldn't be making so much fuss about this whole marriage ordeal. But it clearly serves an important social function (as a show that it is), and it is a goal to be checked off of many people's life goals, especially for women apparently since it's mostly them who put this stuff on the pedestal. Dude you know how many kids are still being born? There are and always will be plenty of fools having children they can't actually afford (and might never be able too), us not contributing to this mess of an experiment we call a society changes absolutely nothing. Lmao
-
It's not an accident that you feel an urge to share your goals to others. All goals exist within society. If they didn't, they'd be utterly devoid of any meaning. And most of them could not even exist in the first place. So it's not about whether telling them matters or not. It's all about what kind of people you are talking to
-
I couldn't imagine being married. Sounds like just a show for others, all these ceremonies, legalities, the whole attires and stuff. All just for others to see how "happy" and "fullfilled" you both are, or just to check off some goal from the list you were conditioned to want. I don't feel any jelaousy or longing when I see boring couples with their screaming children, on the contrary I feel relieved that I don't have to deal with that shit. Especially in this economy. Like what the hell
-
Bro at this point, you are the Jordan Peterson of this forum, on God, you are like an alternate version of him that is all woke 'n shit
-
That's pretty insane levels of hard work and luck, I got to say. Every once in a while you get a special case of people like you, who really make it out the mud and even get rich. And all that in such a short time, that's spectaculiar. I don't care about this world nearly enough to be able to work as hard, even in theory

That's funny. Perhaps you should have consoled yourself with the fact that at least you're not the one who's slowly frying your lungs and your brain for no reasons no other than a temporary high. I wouldn't be too concerned about the second hand smoking effects at all. As a matter of fact, I'd probably feel a smug sense of superiority wash over me while looking at these people -

What a bunch of bollocks. Go talk about your random imaginary issues somewhere else. Mentioning porn along with a climate change. I guess Ima be another one of those people you "don't take seriously", whatever that means -
I honestly don't see much wrong in what she did, not gonna lie. Some of you guys like to talk so much shit about women, women this, women that. So what if she was someone's side chick, half of yall would wish you had a side chick yourselves. Lmao on God, don't even attempt to lie about that one. And so what if she has a fraudelent psychology degree or whatever. Psychology is kind of a BS field anyway lmao oooh no, she's a fraud, she's not a real psychologist, unlike all these other real "experts" like, come on, guys. And of course, all the vulturish reaction channels waiting for a fresh piece of online drama carcass to feast on is entirely predictible and tiresome, oooh no, a woman who's opinions I've never listened to nor ever taken seriously is actually a fraud, oh shit, that changes so much. Not

It's all BS nonsense, both sides. All sides for that matter. Just the nature, and by extention humans, doing what they know best. Ideally the best course of action would be to left them all to their own devices, just let Israel fight it out with an entire middle east since they feel so brave, but you can't do that can you, otherwise China, Russia or fucking whoever will attempt to fill up that vaccuum. It's all just a never ending game of thrones -
Well I don't think eating meat only is going to help you with those issues. If anything, it's just going to create other problems due to various deficiencies. Same as veganism. Eat everything and figure out other possible causes
-
I've been practising this diet lately. And by lately I mean for 2 and a half decades. It's called "Eat whatever I want" diet, perhaps you've heard of it
-
Stuff's nasty as fuck on God, let's be real here, if you got even as much as a shred of conscience, you can't really rationalize away the negative feelings associated with this "profession" and indulging in it, in whatever form we may be talking about it. Direct contact or not. Doesn't matter. But people will always attempt to rationalize it anyway, even on this thread, both prostitites and Johns, and it is a hilarious sight to see indeed lmao

No country would be able to convince it's citizens - men or women - that war is a good idea. There are too many ways to get informed now. Historically and today (20th -21th century) country leaders/dictators had to spend a lot of time and resources to convince the citizens of these countries that war was a good idea. You can't do that anymore
