Come to think of it, it's not that I feel trapped by others. I could tell them to shove their expectations for me up their ass and walk away whenever I want. Instead, I feel like I'm trapped by the obligation to see things through, when it comes to rewriting a story idea I haven't considered good for a long time. I know I don't care about their opinion of me, but I want to prove to myself that I can impress them anyway.

>>3135
You have placed judgment on yourself to see whether your time, effort, learning, knowledge, wisdom, and skills are capable for the task at hand.
That benchmark is this:
Creating a work that provides something (possibly something impressive) of value to those that read it. As your proof of self growth and development.
Use this as your training weight to exercise and become more. This will squeeze you and constrict, but at the end you will be more refined and capable.
This isn't a small task, and taking it lightly will be a mark you'll remember. That is why you've posted this here, as the pressure increases.
This isn't just for them or you right now. It is also an achievement for the you in the future as a tool to utilize.
This is heavy limitations, and limitations can either drag you down or be the well spring source of your strength and improvement.
Do with this as you will.
Good luck.

A long time ago, I used reddit. I started out thinking "I'll get a high score, and then advertise my fanfics" but I got distracted. I was a teenager back then, after all.
Anyway at one point I met this guy who fucking hated me. I don't remember what it was that made him a hater, just that it was pathetic. Pretty sure it involved pony opinions.
So naturally, he stalks me on the site and downvotes every post I make for a while. I know everyone on the internet calls each other pathetic but I can't imagine caring about reddit numbers so much that warring with someone else's reddit numbers seems like a good way to spend an afternoon. Censoring someone and yelling "Take that!" is pretty low, and caring about reddit numbers isn't quite that low. But it's still low.
I decide to go to a subreddit for asking old people questions, because it's said some hilariously stupid things to me before. I ask... How did I word it? Something like "Have you ever had a small argument and forgotten about it, and then found it the person you talked to took it personally and hated you for years?" was the question I wanted to ask.
Anyway here comes a legendary dumbass, posting in full view of everyone,
>"I don't know what you did but it must have been pretty shitty!"
when what I did was call the new season of FIM boring. That's what got his panties in a bunch, I remember now.
Imagine "vaguebooking" about your reason for hating someone, hoping some confused onlooker assumes it's a valid reason and joins in on the dogpile solely because there is a dogpile.
The old person's sub locked the thread. Old people wanted nothing to do with this twitter beef. I wanted nothing to do with this twitter beef.
I wonder how that guy turned out sometimes. Did he grow? Did he change? Does he cstill go by that name? Did he ever find inner peace? Or is he on some other website right now in some other fandom, yelling at someone with Eren Yaeger opinions he wishes were illegal?
>>3136
Makes sense. While I'm here, I should ask for advice regarding a friend of mine who doesn't use this site.
He's been bluepilled while I wasn't looking. One day we were talking about writing, and he said he wanted to "tackle toxic masculinity" in this story idea he described to me. It sounded like shit. He even ships gay characters on twitter!
There's so much shit he doesn't know about the world, and I don't know where to begin when it comes to teaching him. He used to be a "lmao who cares about politics? I have decided to never vote, this makes me a rebel. haha sjws are silly and harmless" kind of idiot, but now he's a fucking beta cuck.
I don't want to come on too strong and lose this friend. But if he becomes brainwashed, he's lost completely. What do I do?

>>3137

This is a vent thread, not a discussion thread

>>3137
Because I want to get back on topic here's the spoon feed.
You substitute that wolrd view with one that makes sense in the real world.
I recommend the bell curve because thinking on that accounts fot all possibilities. Useful for those stuck in a spot.
And ROOT PROBLEMS what is a symptom what is generating the problem.
Here's how you do it.
Remeber to be a listener first and foremost. You are constructing it with him. WITH. You want them to get somewhere, but yoy want them to walk to the water themselves so they can bask in victory and drink the water.
This is a Collaboration.
Ask what he knows about _THINGY_HERE_.
Probably not a lot.
"THINGYHERE sounds like a problem, and I may sound (arrogant, obnoxious, pompous, whatever) I think I have something that might help, but it'll take some time to cover."
Here is where you go to the root of the problem switching world views.
First foundation of truth, the fuck is a bell curve and why statistics is basically everyone for different sets of people.
This is to expand and 'compliment' that world view because yes there is a teeny tiny small part of whatever description a 'THINGYHERE' is.
Second with the bell curve you can now give it context. That 'THINGYHERE' applies to this subset of people with these subsubset of problems.
Remeber you on constructing it WITH him. That means he has to do some work too.
Third you get to the root of the problem(s).
For 'THINGYHERE' it sounds like from a point of view of (SCIENCE, PSYCHOLOGY, SOCIOLOGY, GENETICS, MATHEMATICS, FUCKIT) that some of those problems stem from there BECAUSE in (WHATEVER FIELD) common symptoms are _____ while it isn't always the case that can be helpful in remedying the root problem. At least getting closer to root problems.
Four How root problems connect and what can be done about it.
"So 'THINGYHERE' will go away or at least be more easily dealt with when ROOTPROBLEM is addressed."
Part of the path to the problem may be other people don't get what the problem is so they do solutions that aren't 'fixing' the right problem. So they make ripples too that don't actually work.
Having the tools to find the truth is paramount. That means both BOTH parties have to listen and work togther.
Make this FUN and EXCITING. It has to be fun talking together and working on fixing the fucked up thinking and 'problem'.

Take breaks every five to twenty five minutes for at least five minutes to just have some good quality friend time. Unless they are really invested and is having fun doing this.

>>3137
>I don't want to come on too strong and lose this friend.
What is there to like about this 'friend'? Is he a loyal and kind person or is he the fool who throws caution to the wind?
>But if he becomes brainwashed, he's lost completely.
Nothing of value was lost if he is not worth saving, why do you feel it is your duty to help he who doesn't know you are trying to help? Is he a willing traitor?
>What do I do?
Confront him about it and see what he does if you care about him, let things happen as they do if not.

>>3141
When I talk to that friend about important things he clams up and retreats into himself. Then he goes about a week without replying to my messages. Its not like a cute chick shy about sex. Its like a faggot afraid of being wrong.

>>3142
Tact is important too. So how are you bringing up that sort of discussion?

>>3143
I have no tact or social graces. It all feels too manipulative. To make myself feel better about it I tell myself I'm too honest for that stuff but I genuinely don't know how to do tact.

>>3142
ask himwhy he does that and if you can help make it better for him. my redpill journey began when someone cared about me even though they shouldnt have, remind him you care and that youre worried,

>>3137
You can't give someone balls if they have none, anon. If he still has any semblance of balls remaining, you need to guide him to realize he's being stupid. Instead of pointing out that it's stupid, get him to actually think about it himself.

Most importantly, be a friend to him - don't push it; cults like SJW rely on ostracizing people and replacing their support network so they can't leave - humans are social animals and really don't handle ostracization all that well (unless autist or schizoid), and if all your friends are SJWs, you'll become one too just to not be ostracized.
>>3137
>Anyway here comes a legendary dumbass, posting in full view of everyone,
>>"I don't know what you did but it must have been pretty shitty!"
Sounds like a beta cuck like ciaran all right.

>>3145
>>3183
That makes sense. He's surrounded by bad influences as an artist on Twitter. Maybe I could show him some innocent artists that got attacked by twitter?

>>3191
I think it's working
I think I've shaken his faith in SJeW

>want to talk about my improving health to make people feel like the advice they gave was worth it
>don't want to sound like I'm bragging
what do?

>>3232
>advice they gave was worth it
>my improving health
That's all that needs to be said.
<Thanks everyone for all the advice. My life is turning around positively, especially my health. Your advice has been crucial for this to happen.
<Have some good poners
That's all. I'm sure someone else will say something else that would be good to say as well to express thanks.

Thank you, everyone, for the help. My health is improving and the advice given has helped immensely! My life is turning around positively when it comes to my physical and mental health.
Here is the best poner

>>2676
Some people will call you a faggot to make themselves feel better, or to express that they think you're a faggot. And that's ok.
Some people are faggots who will hurl every insult/accusation/buzzword they know at you, hoping some will stick if enough are thrown at once and they're repeated enough.
They'll call you toxic or salty or racist, insist your words are wrong and baseless and wrong and stupid and smelly and wrong and wrong and insert-word-here without explaining why they think this, or claim that by disagreeing with them you're actually sealioning and gaslighting a red herring, whatever the fuck that word-salad means.
They don't have legitimate complaints or reasons behind their actions, or an argument for you to intellectually engage with. They just have a pool of words they've memorized.
They won't feel good after throwing those words at you, but they'll feel good if someone else just assumes at least one of those labels and accusations must be correct.
All the labels and accusations are just attacks. But is there a way to defend yourself from blatantly false attacks on your character without giving those faggots the satisfaction of a response? Or is your only option to just hope others can see through this leftist slander tactic?

>>3259
Actions speak louder than words.
But it's all context dependant.
In a work place evidence (if you can get it) is nice. Such as witness testimony, being generally kind and helpful (within reason just enough) importantly useful and a key component.
>But is there a way to defend yourself from blatantly false attacks on your character without giving those faggots the satisfaction of a response?
Does your percieved actions thus far seemingly align with that false accusation?
<If No you're good to go
They look crazy. Don't back down, but addressing it is not recommended because that means you give whatever the fuck they said weight and validity. Unless someone actually asks for clarification. Then that has to be to the point, unless they want the long and full story.
<If Yes there's a problem
This is where it requires nuance and guile. Brevity and wit wins usually.
The point is to have a foundation that is supreme in durability and flexibility. This is where one makes a pinpoint observation of the statements, the content of them. If it's character attacks that lean on statement interpretation correct with as few words as possible leading to the point you are trying to make.
If it's simply character attacks they are meaningless. Your actions thus far will speak louder and others will pay closer attention to what you do.
If it's a buzzword for the sake of a buzzword without the proper usage determine if their statement is against you or the message your trying to say. If it's against you it doesn't matter because your actions now have a spotlight. If it's the message ensure that is communicated clearly and precisely.
Someone who shouts randomly to no one doesn't get attention. Engaging deeply on their terms on whatever the fuck that is in no relation to the job at hand tends to be bad.
<Actions are looking funky wat do?
Stay the course continue doing as has been done. (Usually good: Saying fu to censorship as a publisher, nicely but firmly) (Fails: Woke company Staying SJW losing at everything as it all crumbles.)
Or
An alteration is in order to what extent, and how so and where is the key but that's highly context sensitive. (Usually good: Addressing legitimate concerns and practices with a plan of action to redress grievances) (Fails: Going Woke in fear of backlash.)
>Of oh fug there is a real problem technically a possibility
This is when analysis and picking through yourself and the situation is necessary. To diagnose what is wrong, where, how and why.
>Or is your only option to just hope others can see through this leftist slander tactic?
If it's blatantly false who ever is doing the sladering is ruining personal credibility in the future. That it demonstrates a fundamental failure on their part. When appropriate a simple refutation, maybe with solid evidence will shatter them.

I got psyopped into being a communist tranny for years until I broke out of it and shit and my past still drives me mad and haunts me.

>>3260
That makes sense. Thank you for this advice, brother.
>>3261
Did you do anything bad to your genitals, or just tell people you were tranny until you stopped doing that?

>>3262
>Did you do anything bad to your genitals, or just tell people you were tranny until you stopped doing that?
I was never gonna go through surgery because it literally does nothing, it's absolutely stupid. It's also cosmetic but I almost did HRT. Which would've been terrible.

>>3263
What is it like to go through that?
Do lefties surround you and try to egg you on?

>>3261
Dont beat yourself up about it anon. We didnt start out redpilled.
Years ago I participated in the info campaign to push gay marriage in California. I legitimately thought it was about tolerance and equal rights and all that.

>>3261
What made that appeal to you? I'm not trying to put you down. I'm asking because I want to prevent that from happening to my future sons.

>>3269
> not sageposting
As OP I request this thread be loved to /sp/ for purpose of shitposting
faggot nigger
Apply Dave Chapelle's Nigerian accent from his special about Juicy Somoulier

>>3264
It's sort of like brainwashing, they convince you this AGP fetish is a genetic thing and it goes on.
>>3265
I thought like that too, until I got turned into a homosexual and then tranny, turns out it's just perversion disguised. Sexuality isn't real. Gender isn't real either it was a term developed in the 50s to differ people from their biological sex, it's propaganda, you have a sex and you deal with it, anyone who says otherwise is a liar. The first ever "non-binary" person literally came out and said "Being non-binary and transgender is mental illness" and got cancelled for it.
>>3266
As for the faggotry: They tell you it's natural and that it's human they twist the truth into this big satanic lie it's disgusting, a work of evil even.
As for the commie shit: they just parade it around like oh everyone will be a community together but it's really just one giant slave fest.

>>3272
I hope you got it out of your system. Until this thread is moved to /sp/ it is clearly not a shitposting thread

>>3271
How did you break free from that shit? These days it seems like those that become indoctrinated are completely hopeless. Is there anything that can be done to help other people that are trapped in the situation you were in?

>>3279
It's a matter of snapping mentally and completely. I honestly have no idea how I did it.

>>3280
Perhaps if you will, describe what about you mentally and completely snapped? This seems to be at the crux of the equation. In my case (with the gays and their info campaign) I quickly lost interest and stopped responding. Your experience could shed more light. In what way did you snap?

>>3281
Imagine everything in your room becoming dark, going completely schizo and then screaming at the top of your lungs while you seek out to destroy everything in your path, you break a bunch of shit before your brain snaps and you see in your mind what has been causing it this whole time as if it was something of pure darkness and you kill said thing as if the darkness you fight is inside you. Then you look around and snap back to reality as you stand above a knocked over monitor and broken shards of glass and plates. And you go to lay down and you stare at the ceiling. And your next goal is to put your life back together.

That site's CSS is cancer, it won't even let me zoom out.

Today is Wednesday which is the day of Mercury, the 3rd day of the week, it is the full moon tonight and it's the last super one until next year. La Luna is so beautiful, many nights have been spent upon the observation of her rise and fall, the 28 days of constant waxing and waning.
>>2784
Eh, I didn't really need to get rid of that video but whatever, I know where she is but it's fairly far away. Still miss her.
There is another clandestine equine that's caught my eye anyways. Albeit, more moodier than she ever was, their hormones change the way they behave like it does with women but this one is extra bitchy in heat, sometimes it appears as if they have split personalities, though it is merely the estrus cycles that change their mad mare minds. Lessons can be learned from these ponies.

Seems like it's somewhat smooth sailing from here onwards, perhaps by the 3rd quarter of the moon it shall be sunnier ahead than it is currently, the clouds shall dissipate and there will be a golden glow before long.
That's it for todays forecast.

A weird old prick insulted me today with the nonsensical stock insult "you think you know things but you don't. Uh... *points to head* knowledge" right after I fixed his computer for him. Clearly I fucking do know things because I just fixed his fucking computer for free. I'm not mad, I was surprised. Still surprised. You'd think a guy like that would want to be a holier man considering his age. He's related to a friend of mine who asked for help today with this. I don't think I gave the old fart any excuse to get butthurt at me but there are many reasons why his generation loves niggers. Oh, those wacky pseuds. They'll never change.

They took my foreskin.
I want it back.

>>4012
Don't they make creams to promote foreskin growth?

A woman flirted with me in the supermarket until she saw the healthy apple juice I was buying and then decided to fuck off halfway through the conversation
you should have seen her reaction to the juice
she looks at the 2 liter apple juice in my arm and the 2 liter coke in both her arms cradled like a baby and then walks off to a corner of the store to pretend to keep shopping even though we were both in the queue.
what the fuck. She was cute aside from how fat she was and if she ate healthily she would probably be a solid 6/10. I know an apple a day keeps the doctor away but she didn't look like a doctor unless they were forced to accept fatassed diversity hires from Mass-achushits.

I have realized that all of my hobbies, from art to roleplaying characters to writing to horseback riding to ponies to fantasy books, have been derivative of a person who died 15 years ago.
Now I feel haunted as fuck.
I didn't believe repressed memories were a thing...

>>4028
This needs elaboration

>>4029
I'd rather not go further than that, tbh. I just got over an existential crisis.

>>4030
There's nothing wrong with picking up new hobbies from friends whether they're dead or alive. Hell I still celebrate the birthday of a friend of mine who died years ago.
