  1. No way, the universe will implode if I do.
  2. Liked the post for proper use of the semi :PP.
  3. God, I don't know how this kind of behavior would go through here in Slovenia. Fine, I guess. But it's not common at all, and if a random stranger approaches you on the street it's understood that he's either trying to sell you something or asking for money/disturbed. I've been told multiple times that people in the US are far more open, and that talking to strangers isn't a big deal there. Here, it doesn't happen. A stranger chats you up, and what the hell you want from me. Your journal is fun though^^.
  4. I'll throw most of my time & energy into article writing. I know there are other ways (some of which more black hat-y than others) though; I tried stuff like promoting adult webcams through Twitter & re-uploading amateur videos, etc :PP. I was surprised to learn that, even with such dodgy and relatively simple stuff, there are right and wrong ways to approach things ... and I kinda did every possible mistake, lol. Guess the world will have to get by without my mature ebony ladies. I just thought I'll give it a chance, but there's ofc no actual easy way of making money online. None. Pool results I got on the WoW forum I still post on (I know): Would you read my blog?
  5. This is a little too minimalistic even for me. I was thinking about going with something like this at some past point, but I eventually realized adding some pictures isn't a big deal, and widgets are too useful to skip. Thing is, reading requires more effort than anything else, so I want to at least make it look pleasant. I added another post; it's gaming related even though I stress at the beginning and end that WoW is a satanic drug thing that you don't need, and I no longer play. I don't expect there to be many such posts, but it's just something I wanted to write about.
  6. So I thought I better just start instead of stalling. I'll switch to a proper website soon enough. https://uncannythoughts.wordpress.com/ Will make a few posts in the following days; after that, it'll probably two posts a week on Mondays and Thursdays.
  7. Well, things may get worse, but you only have 10 days left. After that, you're pretty much over the most critical part.
  8. This fucking forum manipulating me into setting tangible goals. You guys are terrible. :^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^)
  9. I have to to come up with enough extra money to go see The Cure in Austria in a little less than three months. The band is doing fine, but they're hardly getting younger, so this may be the last chance for me to see them. I basically need circa 100 € for the the package that includes a ticket and a bus ride plus some extra money to look like someone who's going to The Cure concert. 200 € should be enough, and it's very achievable. This will be my goal for August. You people are so big on sharing goals; here's one.
  10. Oh, thank you. Interesting, since the post on Lana got ignored completely when I wrote it, but then again, what do you even say to something like that. I'll get a proper website once I learn how to build one; I hope that to happen soon-ish. I'll probably get hosting on Dreamhost (free ID protection and I'm told they're known for supporting free speech) and buy Genesis Framework, and after that I still need to learn enough PHP to do anything. It's not going to be anything special though; a big part of it is just learning how to make a website. Until then, I'll hang out on a free wordpress blog like a pleb I currently am :^). When you are ready to make the transition to a hosted website, wait for Black Friday. You can get like 3 years of hosting for about $150 at Hostgator. I am currently cleaning the dust from my own blog at Hostgator, I simply installed WordPress, ZenHabits Theme and was good to go. Ha, I actually did that last year. But I was in a different state of mind back then, and my ideas were a lot more limited & pretentious to be honest. Now, I just want to set up something that I like and can grow. I'm also going to use all my online presence, including that of my old WoW persona, to channel traffic. It's the only way. Checked the ZenHabits, and it looks fine. I do want a little more stuff though: a header and a sidebar for sure, comments and widgets as well. Care to share your blog though?
  11. Interesting. Me and two other friends did the following: in a highly social setting (basically an area full of alternative clubs with people hanging out outside, drinking, etc), we'd go and join different group by just standing there and not saying anything. Reactions were different and usually lead to rather fun conversations even though some guys reacted aggressively too, but that's to be expected for obvious reasons. (I'd suggest against doing this with women in your group since the guys in the group will just start talking to her while ignoring you. Also, I think this wouldn't work well solo; a lone guy just standing there and saying nothing is weird; two or three guys are also weird, but at least show they're capable of having friends and being a part of a group.) (We would also go around and ask people whether they know the band Kraftwerk. My assumption was that everyone will know them, which was proven wrong.) Are you still using a standing desk? I feel kinda skeptical about it; I've worked in two workshops before (both focused on producing different metal elements), and having to stand for 8 hours isn't as fun as it may sound. I'm unsure whether I can get excited over a lifetime career of this. I think there's something about leg veins and pressure, etc. As far as I know, you're fine as long as you sit up straight, using your back muscles to support your body instead of a the chair's back, and do a bit of hip exercises.
  12. Time to wake up and face the truths, sheeple. PS: I'm also noticing several camouflaged pentagrams in the chemtrail pattern.
  13. There's a thing called "a pink cloud" that's common in quitting all sorts of addictions; the initial surge of increased energy, elevation you get when you first quit. It can give you a false idea that you've now beaten your addiction and life will continue to be awesome forever though, of course, that's not exactly what happens, lol. In my experience, it's more about having ups and downs with downs getting progressively less bad, which then turns into some kind of stability & steady improvement after day 60. At least that's me, and others seem to have a similar experience as well. While I don't like telling others what to do, I really do believe it's massively important to post every single day even if it's just a few words. If nothing else it helps you remind yourself of what you're doing.
  14. Very good. Relapsing is really just a part of the process, and I'll be forever suspicious of a person who hasn't relapsed at least once. I mean, it's probably possible, but it's not what happens from what I've seen in both gaming and drink addiction. Most people, if you look at the big journals here, have relapsed at one point. So don't feel bad and welcome back ^^. (If anything, you should be glad that you've come back since a lot of people drop out and disappear forever.) This is one of the major reasons that keep me from relapsing. I'm still willing to maintain that 80% of gamers are miserable on one significant level or another.
  15. I've only read small bits of your journal so far, but it figures that someone with 34 pages has had a few relapses, ha. (Same here obviously.) My takeway from this would be that it's generally best not to state your goals unless it's to a person that can truly offer you real, practical advice. In that case it's worth the risk. It probably also becomes less of an issue once you're more successful in general.
  16. Oh, thank you. Interesting, since the post on Lana got ignored completely when I wrote it, but then again, what do you even say to something like that.

  17. This post is "the red pill" as it's commonly understood, or at least how it was understood at first: red pill on gender and gender relations. Funny thing is, the fit and attractive male and the protector and provider usually are not the same. How would a woman handle this situation? Depends on the woman and her environment. Right now, some go with alpha fux, beta bux. This doesn't end very well for most women, but I bet it's hella fun until it lasts. There are actually heaps of great guys who could become fairly alpha with some proper training and encouragement, but most women have an inane idea that men either "have it" or they don't. I can't say why exactly that is; maybe it's something to do with the fact that women are given free attention and resources by simply existing (if they're at least decent looking) while men have to work to gain value in society. So the concept of bettering oneself may be more foreign to women, or at least foreign in a way of applying it to others. ("I can improve myself, but other people are stuck where they are.") Some of them are too focused on themselves to even think about how men feel. Idk, what do you think?
  18. Lets pick one topic and focus on that, Hitaru. This right now is a bit much. You decide.
  19. Actually I would and I did in the past, so the topic is not about me as an individual. What I say is, if giving is voluntary, given the choice, most people will not give. Does that justify "gun-point robbery" as you say? No, I don't think so. It would be equal to say "I'm robbing you to give it to the poor because you won't give by your own". Yeah, so altruist of you, thank you. How much of taxes goes to the poor anyway? Public health, transport and schools (the only services worth of taxes imo) are not so expensive. Most money is wasted. Becoming the only one! What will happen is that a conglomerate of charity agencies will form and play God with the poor. The Nestlé of alms. Delightful. Not that taxes are doing a better job, to be honest. In the end, nobody gives a fuck about the poor. That makes free schooling and formation all the more necessary. It's the only realistic way to climb the ladder. Again, money gives power, and power is addictive. And in the case of wealth, hereditary. Capitalism as free trade and competition is not oppresive. Capitalism as permissiveness is. The state is a necessary evil. The state as institution should be small and handled by the most number of people possible with the less difference in authority as possible. The state as a concept of community we are all a part of is an absolute necessity. We should encourage individual progress while defending our interests as a group. That's the only way we can really thrive. See, you would donate, I would donate, and it's fair to say that most people on this forum would donate too. If someone doesn't wish to donate at all, that's a choice they're entitled to make. However, that choice can also be made public, and it's then up to every individual to decide whether they want to associate/trade with a person who won't donate anything at all. Even in the current forced taxation system, people still donate to charity in great amounts. It's reasonable to assume that that would only increase in a free society. You're so worried about the unlikely scenario of one company controlling everything, but this is exactly what the state is! State forces you to pay taxes and follow all its other regulations; if you don't abide, they send no a bunch of letters, then they lock your bank accounts, and then they pay you a visit in person. If you resist, they will use force, and if you fight that, they will kill you. The state, or lets just call it the corporation, the company that claims to protect you and work for your best interest, will literally murder you if you resist it. Now imagine a cable company sends you a letter, informing you that your monthly bill will increase by 50%, and that you'll be killed if you don't pay up. The company would go bankrupt overnight. State is evil. it does nothing the private sector can't do better + it threatens you with violent murder if you don't submit yourself. It's mafia. Yes, money is power and power corrupts. So why support a system which gives potentially dangerous people even more power? We've covered this before. I like that you think the state should be small; we can work with that. But why would it be necessary in the first place?
  20. If they buy them out, that's a voluntary agreement. Sabotage can lead to social shaming, hurting the offending company's profits. Would you support a company that's known to sabotage its competition, especially if there were other options available? They can be removed, but at what cost? Why give them a way to gain power in the first place? Corporate magnets are subjected to free market and have to either play by its rules or lose influence. But after all, if your products/service is truly superior, you surely do deserve to rule the market. Sounds good to me. In that case, I'd set up a small cheese operation myself and collect millions after a few months :^). So you're saying that people are capable of evil acts. Fine. But why give them additional means for doing that? Government only gives said rich people more power -- power to gain unfair advantage on the market. If rich people truly are as perverted as you say, why give them a government as well? I didn't say that. I'm saying that using violence in order to defend yourself isn't a violation of a non-aggresion principle.
  21. Nah, good looking women are just more arousing to men. Beauty is objective in certain traits like facial symmetry, quality of hair, etc. There are certain cultural elements to it, but it's generally well established how a beautiful woman looks like. So women are just leeches. As I said before, if that's the case, fuck women. I don't see how that follows. I'm absolutely certain that there are still ways to find happiness for unmarried women after 30, but it may be a rough ride for most. Agreed on fuck women part :^). They are and they always were in a sense. High status, successful men will always surround themselves with gorgeous women. Giving birth to children and raising them isn't being a leech; it's as close as a human being can get to being a god; you almost literally get to shape a living human's brain. It's a great thing. I think it's down to every individual to decide whether having children makes sense for them, and that the choice for having children should always be made from purely selfish reasons. But it's something most women enjoy and find fulfilling, so instead of telling them that they can still have kids at 45 (very hard and risky), fuck a football team and pursue meaningless degrees in bullshit social sciences with no market value, we should promote a lifestyle that benefits both them and the society. I'm saying "we should" because that's what raises everyone's quality of life, which is, again, my only goal. I don't care about what's right or wrong; I care about individual freedom and quality of life. Dear modern women: Dogs are not your children
  22. Yes there is. Blacks in general are far more inclined to commit crime, including violent crime like rape, than other races. That's not even controversial. What's controversial is why they do it; some will explain that it's due to social circumstances, even "institutional racism", some will argue about the racial differences in IQ. This is another huge topic, and I think everything I've listed plays a role. I'm not sure about the violence part. I'd say men are more violent overall, but there's also data that suggests otherwise. I'd perhaps say that women tend to be more indirect in their violence and perhaps harder to deal with for that reason. A man will fight you, and you'll be friends after, but a woman will focus her life on ruining your reputation forever. And this is, of course, a simplification. (The insult was calling my views childish if I remember correctly, and there was also something about racism before that.)
  23. I think the issue may be the lack of data, and there's also that fact that it's ultimately the mother that gets to decide who to have sex with & whether to have an abortion or give up the child for adoption. They are the gatekeepers. At least in a reasonably civilized societies. Yes we should. We are aiming for success in life & higher quality of life, and two parent families with both a mother and a father are the ideal way to achieve that. The best ideas do naturally settle given enough time. That's why we the two parent families are the norm and everything else is shunned for the most part. Traditional family values are far from perfect, but they're what works best for most people. Most women are happiest when married and with children. More sexual partners a woman has, lower the chance that she'll end up in a happy marriage. Therefore, it makes sense to urge women to marry young instead of having all sorts of different partners and probably ending up pregnant and unmarried; contraception is an extremely recent part of our cultures. Entire human history versus a couple of decades. Most women are also passive and submissive by nature and happiest when they have a man that leads them. Most men, at least when it comes to relationships with women, are not, or at least they aren't happy when they aren't in charge.
