Number 3, or is it 4? Who's keeping count, anyways?

Last thread hit bump limit, so now here's an all new Trashchan edition of the thread. I like this place. I think it will make a good home for us.

What's on your mind, tonight?

>What's on your mind, tonight?
In the midst of the chaos, I'm searching for a soft pillow that works for stomach sleepers, doesn't get hot, and preferably not too expensive for nice cozy nights.

I've found many candidates, the one I'm probably going to get is the Serta standard down alternative at Lowes. I stumbled across it by chance and have my misgivings with its low $15 price tag and its polyester filling, but it feels great. The fabric is super soft and cool (whether or not it stays that way while in use is still in question), and it's not too firm.

A manager at my previous employer tried to issue me a work phone for such a reason once.

I used to listen to old-time radio as a kid before bed. My dad was really into it and had a whole bunch of shows downloaded.

Sorry for being predictable, but there is a lesson in there. Courage is scared shitless, and usually rightfully so, but he always does what he has to do, even when he's so anxious and afraid he can hardly breathe. The terror will pass, and your emotions cannot force you to do or to not do anything.

I just wish I did things properly. I got no one to talk to, imageboars get tiresome, and I can't be entertained by most of what is the current web nowadays.

Brother you gotta venture out into the world. Find a hobby, put yourself out there, spend time in social settings like bars, cafes, clubs.

Got any coworkers that pique your interest a bit? Well talk to them. Making friends isn't hard, but finding someone thats got your back and is trustworthy takes years of friendship to develop.

You know these answers already, so this isn't the problem. It's your mindset about the whole thing that's probably fucking you over more than you realize. Get outta your comfort zone a bit
>>1979
Imageboards are great but spending too much time devoid of person will wear on your mental health. It's good to have somewhere you can go where you can be somebody real. Even if that's just somewhere online.

>I got no one to talk to
Talk to people. Talk to people from whom you can afford to be told things like "No" or "go away"'.

If you are particularly autistic, then you will have to change from asking yourself "what good can come of it?" to the question of "what bad can come of it?" instead.

>Imageboards get tiresome
Good. They are supposed to.

>I can't be entertained by most of what is the current web
The current web can afford your ennobling as well as propagate your sin. I'm learning about an-priv herbs and pharmacology. Would be harder to do without internet.

>What is one supposed to do?
Seek out God and shelter your flock.

>How do people find partners and friends?
I tend to wing it anon. I don't have many. But take an interest in people and be prepared to deal with their unfriendliness.

>Am I stupid?
You are autistic, which reflects upon low IQ... But you're self-aware and capable of restraint. You've a lot going for you there frankly. Most people of the world don't have either.

So much left to do, but not a lot I can. Is it odd that when I fight with someone I care about, I hate it more when I'm not the one in the wrong? I'm used to being wrong. I like being wrong. I have a reason to feel like shit when I'm wrong. I get to apologize when I'm wrong. Did you know chewing ice habitually is a sign of an iron deficiency? I think I might have one now. Need to get a blood test, but I'm broker than Hotwheels' bones. Everyday I want to get closer to my goals, and every night I feel further away than ever. I don't see how I'm ever going to get ahead like this. Just one of those nights, I guess.

I've been thinking about the large amount of nostalgia for the "old internet" recently, and I just realized that people aren't really nostalgic for the "old internet," they miss the feeling of discovery, which was more prevalent on the early web as now things are more centralized, but it's nothing exclusive to the early web.
I guess what I'm saying is if you feel bored with the web the way it is now, you should just try randomly searching for stuff, go on an adventure and see what you find.

This was kinda how I felt for a time, but I went down an immense internet Lain rabbit hole a year or two ago and realized there definitely are plenty of insane discoveries to be made if you truly search for them. That's how I found the original /late/, which was such a feeling when I first stumbled onto the board.

I think that most people just want to feel nostalgic. It feels so comfy living in the past, but it really wasn't anything special and those feelings you miss are still very much attainable in the present.

Of course it's not "just nostalgia," the web has become quite corporatized and because it's profitable to mine data and whatnot that's what big companies do.

What I'm saying is that the good parts of the internet have not disappeared, they're just buried beneath all the shit, and you need to find them.

It's sad because some people feel that the internet is just completely dead and they just give up and go onto these corporate platforms because they feel there is nowhere else to go, I just encourage you try to "surf" the web and try to find the good parts of it before giving up.

I think I will spend my entire life alone, and I'm feeling less sad about this fact as time goes on. sometimes at night I look out into the city skyline wondering if there's some random guy out there among the millions of people I'm looking at that I'd like to meet but this doesn't happen as much anymore, there's probably like less than 10, if any, people in the entire country that I could share a meaningful connection with and I'm not sure that it's worth continuing to look for them

I've been giving serious consideration to moving to some quiet, sparsely populated city in the midwest with low cost of living and no income tax.

I have a much easier time finding old video game music that jibes with my tastes  than other styles for whatever reason. I think in a lot of way there was just a higher standard of composition to it, and the limitations bred creativity. It's not hard to find games from the '80s or '90s with tunes that are more memorable than a lot of what you'll hear on the radio, especially given the abysmal state of pop music today. Even "classic rock" stations play their share of garbage though.

I don't know that Sioux Falls is all great. I heard from someone who lives there that Rapid City is considered the better place to be. I saw someone on the Internet who seemed to be familiar with South Dakota recommend that people don't move there, but I don't remember what the context was.

Yeah, the radio's a non-starter.  You have to look to genres like neoclassical, prog rock, and jazz fusion to get anywhere close.

Lately I just try to picture a band taking the stage and playing something like songrel.  They're not a SNES nostalgia band and don't even know what MAGFest is.  They use actual instruments, not synths.

Come to think of it, maybe Level 42 isn't too far off the mark.

I think today is day four or five.  Feeling a good level of discomfort as I overcome the resistance of bad habits.

I can definitely hear the influence jazz fusion had on Japanese musicians back then, but most of the songs I've heard weren't anywhere near as tuneful. "Asayake" by Casiopea is an exception. It might actually be my favorite rock instrumental of all time. I'll have to do more listening though.

I should maybe give them a shot. Is there any album in particular you'd recommend? I'm not sure if I've ever heard their music or not, but I definitely know the name from seeing advertised at the end of this video:

Not everyone has to be everything. Almost every single little dude out there in the world living their life has something worthwhile inside of them, and has something you can enjoy from them. A family member came into town this week for a couple of days, and it reminded me to be social. To reach out to people and make connections. I'm trying. I quite like people, but I like solitude too, and it's easier. I was raised in fear, but there's nothing to be afraid of, and little to worry about now. People, people who think too much that is, tend to make the assumption that you need to have loads of stuff in common with someone for them to be your friend, and that's not true at all. Often the most enriching relationships are those that doggedly take you out of your sphere of comfort, teach you about, and expose you to new things you didn't even know you didn't know. Those also often give you the opportunity to share your stuff fresh and new. Gaining new insights and a new level of mastery while you're at it. It won't happen all at once, so just shoot the shit with somebody now and again. It could pay off.

Was also suprised to find out that Duvet is the opening, since i have a .webm of it from ~2013 (that has survived 3 phones, 2 laptops, an SD card and an external SSD), though I am unsure if I found it independantly or if I sought it after hearing it when I watched the first episode so many years ago

It's definetly a show which reputations gotten away from it. Reminds me of the first time I watxhed Evangelion. Expected a literal harem show witg big robots. And the most prevelent memes at the time came from End of Evangelion andnthe remakes, so there were many scenes I was looking for that just didn't happen. What I got was much better than what I expected though.

do you guys like camping? whats the meanest animal yall got in your woods? other than humans.
here its the myhtical black panther.... supposedly im too far south for any of the big jungle cats to live. all extinct 200 years ago,the science says, but theres been hundreds of sightings since the 1900s, rumors that they still exist in small numbers. 
crocodiles are terrifying, not much i can hope to do to one except run away. but i usually stay away from the water. wild boars can be pretty mean too. same for wild dogs, or tamed dogs off a leash. i always cay my hunting knife on me even if i can get in trouble.

My work take a lot of my time and I can't find a way to keep a routine of reading them.
I started SubaHibi when I was on my vacation, and stopped since them, if I come back to reading, I think I need to start all over.

This morning, I had a very vivid dream about the things I want most in this world right now. I choose to believe that this means these things will happen and are already on their way to me. I will not allow anything to convince me otherwise.
It's late. I'm again in this weird state when I can't stop scrolling. I need to sleep, but... What's with the spell checker? Haha I turned off computer only to keep doing this from phone. Honestly something's very wrong with me. It's like I'm so afraid of looking around that I absolutely must scroll until exhaustion overtakes. I have no life and there is nothing I can do about it, literally. I just... I don't understand it. What, you really just go outside and talk to people or what? No heck you don't. Life is a dragging emptiness of screen time and wage slavery. At least some people see some meaning in this pointless ride. I don't, I guess that's why I'm so afraid of loosing my distraction. I am too weak to stare in void for too long. And my life is void. I've had enough! Stop it! Honestly I think I should have been killed. Why did I survive? Why can't I be left alone?

Helps to remember that you are mortal.  The monotony of daily life turns weeks and months into a blur, but eventually the wheel stops turnin' round and round and there are no years left to reel in.

I have this problem, too, and there isn't an easy answer for it.  There was a period where it wasn't a problem, because I had a sense of purpose, to which this decade's nihilistic circus sideshow are profoundly caustic.  It's like I have to "transvaluate all values" to achieve a sense of purpose again, because the values I inherited turned out to be as worthless than zimbabwean banknotes.

Toughest part ab being in a phase like that is feeling that your life has always been shit and any positive feelings come from you fooling yourself

What helps me get through it is knowing that at some point in the future the pendulum swings back, and one day for no particular reason I'll wake up and go "damn I was really bugging fr"
Can't sleep because of intrusive suicidal thoughts. It's very late already and I need to wake up very early. My sleep schedule is broken and I can't fix it, because otherwise I won't get all things I need done. On the other hand with broken sleeping schedule and suicidal thoughts I no longer feel like I need anything except a hearty headshot. I'm going to have terrible headache when I wake up if I manage to sleep at all. Another day of agonizing misery. And then another. And then one more. I'm not complaining, but I am so incapable of handling this I think it would be fair to kill me as in natural selection. Why I am alive is bizarre to me. I am not even a human being actually. I can't help but deeply despise other people. I am a coward and fear gore, but still I often end up fantasizing about torturing and killing other people and get aroused by this. I think if nothing changes it will not take forever before I seriously start considering planned murder. I'm afraid of prisons though. My mental health has been steadily declining for a few years now. I just know it's over. Angel won't descent to me to lend help, and I can't manage it on my own. Hatred is too deep in me. Too bad. I have been despising other people since childhood, I always thought them stupid, incomplete and disgusting. If I lived in normal environment perhaps I could go by, but now it's over. There's no feasible way to set my mind straight again. I just wish I get myself killed before I actually harm somebody else. It feels so bad honestly. I mean when you experience pleasure and disgust at the same time. Murder is disgusting. But seeing somebody else suffer is so pleasurable. No I do not watch gore or violence videos, because I am disgusted with them. I think remnants of a human are still considerably stronger in me because I'm a coward. But I'm just too damn afraid of watching me deteriorate with every day. I'm loosing it. I need to get killed. I just don't know how to go about that.

After a round of Space Station 13 it was 5 AM. Yippee.
Being human is a terrible torture of worthless existence combined with sheer dread of death. You just realize that it was unironically better when you didn't exist, but you can't quit because you're afraid. What the fuck. Life is a cognitive prison. Can't fully comprehend it, but it seems it is a certain establishment, akin to hell but with a different purpose or something. For some it's hell, for others it's something else. Don't understand it fully though. Rationally wanting to die and at the same time irrationally being afraid of it is a torture. Also I noticed that I am not happy being NEET, but I am equally unhappy being wageslave. Meaning I just don't pass natural selection and are not reasonable enough to be happy. I really should be just killed. Why does it have to be so complicated? Back then in medieval times people were dying left and right and everyone was OK with that. Industrial revolution ruined it all. It made dying psychologically complicated. Just one more day, bro. Yeah, just one more day. Anyone here remembers what for? I can't even build up my fantasy world like I used to, because I feel too dull. Why does nobody remember why I need to endure day after day without ability to improve my mental state? It's just going through it all with clenched teeth and closed eyes hoping for a quick death somewhere along the way. Somebody told me that back in the day people had it worse. How worse exactly? They were mercifully killed by hunger or whatever. Agonizing perhaps, but death is better than life. They weren't "forced" to live. They had it better. Absurd, but somehow brutal environment with minimal age expectancy is better than this dull, empty and gaudy world.

I posted on this board a year ago that one thing I'm looking forward to is my first day on the job. 13 months later my boss didn't extend my job contract, but it's okay, since even if he was willing to I wouldn't sign it. I think that one word that would wrap it up nicely is "disappointment". I expected to learn more, to do more of what I liked and to (obviously lol) get paid more. What I thought would be a job that required me to fix PCs and maybe make a website or two turned out to be a mix between a call center worker and a salesman. Meanwhile I could've worked at a production line of some candy factory and I would've gotten way more for less work. Oh well.
I've got one last semester to go before I graduate, I've saved up enough to pay for the tuition. There aren't many IT repair shops in the area, and none of them are looking for more technicians, so until my government gibs run out or I find a new job that I'll be willing to work in, I'll play some vidya, watch some videos, and jerk off. For someone like me, there aren't any good connections to land a cushy job, and the economy isn't the best at the moment. I became 'depressed' again after getting laid off (the sort of 'feel so bad you would rather just lay down in the bed until you grow old and die than do anything' type of depressed) but I think that I've realized something: While getting a large paycheck to afford all the things you want is nice, the pain of going through with it is not worth it, and I'd rather look back on my life when I grow old and think "a lot of it has been rather shit, but I think I've managed to have as much fun as I could, so I didn't waste it".

I have a similar feeling, I got this job almost two years ago and it's been, to summarize it, ok. It has a lot of nice benefits (fully remote, little actual work to do, great benefits) but a lot of really shitty tradeoffs too (dealing with employees/contractors bitching at you (internal IT job), management that really doesn't care about anything beyond line must go up, inverse-imposter syndrome where I feel I'm the only one that actually gets how things work around here). In a weird way I sort of miss going into an office and interacting with people, it's damaged my social life more than I thought it would. But I get lots of time to work on my own personal projects and fuck around. I can lay down on the floor or in my bed when calls are slow, try doing that in an office.
If I were you I'd look more at local repair shops, I worked at one for about two years on and off and it was pretty nice. Most days we had fuckall to do, while others you were running cat6 cable through grungy attics filled with cobwebs and probably venemous spiders. Also didn't help that boomer boss didn't understand anything about modern computing (used the same admin password for every single client and kept every customer's login info in plaintext files on his server, including government contractors) and there were two occasions I should've just quit on the spot. But it did give me enough practical experience to work my way up to this "real" job I have now.
But I've figured out that I hate IT. More specifically, I hate the people involved with it. The fun I had from fucking around with Win98 shitboxes a decade ago is gone, there is only password resets and users complaining they can't find the Start menu. It sucks, but I'm working towards becoming self-sufficient and seeing where it goes.

I'm the opposite. I come back to life once the warm weather comes and get moody once the signs of fall are evident.

I apologize for blogposting but I need to post this somewhere and I feel like this is the least likely place to piss people off with a short post where it won't just get buried in a /b/ thread instantly.
I pined after a girl from 16 to 21, foolish, shouldn't have that long. She was very confusing, would wrestle with me and initiate the kind of play you'd expect from a girl before wanting to take things further. Anytime I'd try kissing her she'd pull away though. It made me insane and contributed to rejection problems I have in general. I did finally give up but still remained friends for some years after. Fast forward to being 24, dumb bitch gets pregnant with some random guy. Me and mom help her through it all for the final few months because she hid it from everyone. Now a few years fast forwarded from there she treats her kid like she doesn't exist and takes no responsibility at all. The grandparents are raising the kid now essentially. 
It's so fundamentally gross that I'm the only man who ever actually cared about her, so much so that I even valued her after having given up on romance, and yet, I am now pushed away all the same and she's a complete train wreck of a human being.
I guess karma is real, she's generated so much bad karma that now it controls her. I don't think I'm important cosmically, but the action of treating me like shit for so long seems to have lead into a pattern of being unable to form proper relationships or value what truly matters in life, I think there is something cosmic about doing bad things and then creating a cycle of bad behavior and having it consume you.
I don't know what to feel anymore on the end of it other than that things could have been different and better for everyone involved if one person decided to just get over their own damn ego. Only now at the age of 26 am I finally ascending into having a real relationship with an unrelated girl after over a decade of pain.

A few of us sent out the scouts, fought off the indians, blazed a trail or two, and here we all are here in our new home, thanks to the kind generosity of Trashmin. Some of the back-and-forth are contained here, Anon : ( >>>/meta/64, >>>/meta/538 ) .

Hope that helps. Glad to hear you found your way back!

>Only now at the age of 26 am I finally ascending
I always had the real notion but i ended up "getting it" at 30 very recently, now as a wizard i have given up and my end of pursuits has given me time and effort to make money and hobby results but i feel i took too long to get it, although some people never get it so to say.

What do you mean so what? I still care, I wish I could have some magical spell to make things work when they could've worked, but I've done it all wrong and there isn't a going back
There is nothing I care about in my life besides getting a job than her. I want to die.

So this: 3 years isn't that long of a time, especially when you're trying so hard to hold on to something that you wish was there, but isn't. Focusing on an absence makes the void sting more. Easier said than done, but just know this too shall pass, should you allow it to.
Ok, so you've done it all wrong and there isn't going back. Then why sweat it? It's done. It's over. It's okay to take a deep breath and let it go. Assess your mistakes, sure. Analyze if they were really mistakes or the consequences of things beyond your control. Try not to make the same mistakes in the future.

If you wait long enough, hedonic treadmill brings you back to average. So, why should I care if I'm happy or sad in the present? It'll go back to average anyways.

I just can't believe someone so pretty, someone so smart, someone so virtuous could exist.
Worse, someone like that could exist, give me the light of day, and for a few weeks make me feel so alive. Like never have I been in my whole life.
I don't think I'll be able to let this go. I seriously wish I could just die. I hate so much. I wanna go back to thinking I'm an unlovable stinking piece of shit, that was a more comfortable life than this.

Considering others are blogposting I'm going to blogpost a little. Everyone on dating apps seems utterly insane the problem is that I don't know where to find people around my age irl as someone who is self-employed online and who doesn't go to college. I wish we still had ethnic clubs, churches, etc that weren't only filled with elders. This society is dying, there is no community space to meet humans as a human anymore. 
So far I have had 3 girls from these cursed apps use me as an emotional platform for months only to tell me they were lesbians. And I've had 2 girls also build up a similar rapport only to tell me they were getting a divorce with their current husbands I had no idea even existed, at which point I cut things off.  
These are people I'll talk to for a while online, meet in person, even get a hug or two, and they they pull something cruel out of nowhere. If it were one or two people perhaps the problem would be me, but it really doesn't seem that way anymore. 
I know that even saying I'm talking to women is going to drive some people insane, but honestly guys the grass is not greener over here for me. I'm just emotionally drained, still touch starved, and feeling angrier than ever. 
It's all just too much to handle. I feel less mad the 5th time something like this has happened compared to how devastating it's been in the past but I really don't know where to go from here I've been trying for years. 
You can self-improve and self-improve, and put your best self forward, and even know that the problem isn't you at a point, and yet the crippling sadness of the reality before you doesn't change despite taking the best actions you can.

>I don't know where to find people around my age irl
Mostly, I just want to be near people for a few minutes, and even that seems impossible to manage.
>>2592
Yeah, to know things could be better, but you'll never have it is far worse than to just simply never have it and know about it.  In the latter case you can suck copium, but in the former, you have to just kind of live with the fact that the rest of your life will be terrible.

You have any idea for how you're going to cope with the rest of your life being absolutely miserable from here on out, dude?
>>2593
Yeah, dating apps are basically just institutionalizing females scamming men.
Most success I've heard from from guys comes from arranged dating.  E.g., people's parents hooking them up.
>>2593
Dating apps are a black abyss. Stare too long into it and it will stare into you.
I feel kinda good tonight... How are yall doing
All good here. Bittersweet.
All nice, late at night.

Hi, I've just been thinking about how fun going online and talking to people from all around the world is. I like to imagine it as this sort of cafe that no one knows about except for a few cool people.

Hi Anon, I think you're right!
> Welcome to downtown Coolsville. < Population: us.
qott: reminiscing on years past, the first time I played pokemon platnium, and the bart baker parodies I used to listen to, it makes me feel simultainously too old an too young
I wish to blogpost about doublechan, and the trifecta of /liberty/, /monarchy/ and /fascist/...
2019, a few days after saint tarrant killed those muzzies, I remember thinking "huh, there must be something the government doesn't want me to know if they banned the manifesto this quickly" I became a nazi quickly after reading the 'Great Replacement' and shitposted on 8/pol/, sturring up the adl and other faggots, fun times, a few months later I became a libertarian after spending some time on /liberty/ than I went to a monarchst, spent some time on /monarchy/ then spent a good six months as a fascist, even did a project defending fascism and the efficiency of a benevolent dictator, though I would later become an anarcho-capitalist for the remainder of 2020 and into late 2022 when I reverted into a Hoppeian Libertarian and have more or less been one since
I lost contact with /fascist/ after julay got glowed on, we lost 80% of the userbase each time we moved, and with the failure of hoppe-sama.xyz after less than a month we were more fractured than ever
/moarchy/ and /liberty/ were welcomed into the cafe, but /fascist/ was not, cast aside to fend for itself, it went from bunker to bunker before disappearing altogether
/liberty/ and /monarchy/ found a home on moe, but /facsist/ is lost to me, but /liberty/ and /monarchy/ are dead, no more discussion, not even /abdl/ bulling them like on julay anymore, the trifecta is dead and nearly forgotten, I wish 8chan could have weathered the storm, just so these board could have survived...

RIP 8chan, my favourite website

Long time no see. I went for it. I almost made it that time. I mean I did it, but I burned out a little. Fizzled. Sizzled a little, even. I'm going to go for it again, but right now my head hurts and I'm damn tired. Like usual sleep never seems to help.
at this point in time, i alone exist upon this board, i could post anything i want and yet i never feel more powerless, knowing that it is possible that it could be the final thing anyone ever posted
