Every time there's a Cloudflare outage I hope it's permanent so that the blackout from Blade Runner actually happens and love is real again

Being under the sun when the UV index is 'very high' is one of the worst things for human vanity (wrt skincare) and possibly mortality (wrt skin cancer) but it's also a laser cannon that discharges pure Apollonian optimism and instantly evaporates all your suicidality

Living with parents who have antithetically extreme personality traits is like being a vegetable constantly being blanched and cooled

'How do you gain the strength of character to appreciate the pure instrumental capacity of llms without falling into resentment about the extensive and immediately visible social ills they cause'

I need to remain continuously aware from this moment onwards that my happiness depends on either being moderately to intensely industrious or resting in the immediate aftermath of such industry (without this rest overextending)

We should actually annihilate normies regardless of their political beliefs. The edgy right wingers of New York, and their leftist transsexual counterparts. We must disintegrate anyone that feels at home in this world, all who feel the need to be part of any community.

It is difficult to be a misogynist in a world where women are adamant on humiliating themselves

Bedrotting is a counterintuitive term to me, it's the world and not the bed that rots you, the bed regenerates you (and even if this regeneration goes to nothing teleology has no place in biology)

Being too physically incapacitated to engage in any remotely vigorous physical activity, homebound, (and too strapped for time for vidya) means the thing I look forward to the most every day is dinner, I understand the gourmandism of old people now

Every conceivable piece of music is either too beautiful, too stimulating, or too boring to study to

'Chronic pain like inceldom like suffering in general does not actually offer you any greater insight into the nature of things nor improve your character'

'I am calm now why did I even tweet this pure vantablack coal'

The conversations resulting from this thread have only reinforced my total disdain for anyone who tries to browbeat others about duty and virtue. There's a reason Aristotle justified his ethics as creating happiness. The motivation for all behavior must be at bottom self-interest

@LordIxabert Wow, you've had girlfriends - in the plural !!! - and you're the kind of man's man who's lived a life such that you can casually drop a reference to being hit in the face with a crowbar and I see your bio has as much Latin crammed into it as a f@&&ot's anus has dick on a Saturday

Hard to overstate the extent to which dreaming has been preferable to waking recently

The lion refuses to go to the 'physio' and do those exercises involving metal bars for incontinent arthritics because the lion is only in his mid-20s and the osteopathological problem he has been suffering from for the better part of a year might yet be 'slept off'

Enough to make you wonder whether certain animals became nocturnal for (at least partially) superfluous eudaemonic reasons rather than 'selective pressures'

Impossible to feel in your element during hot days/seasons unless it's very late, past midnight even, and you have your window open to let in the pure and quiet air that few are awake or sufficiently receptive to appreciate

The present organising principle of my life is the purely theoretical conviction that I will like having money once I actually have it but it feels like cupidity of the aspirational (as opposed to pettily accretive) sort is impossible to develop after reaching cognitive adulthood
