Why do normies have such a hard time accepting that life is just pointless and void of any meaning?
>>
I don't know why people think that's something depressing, life not having any meaning doesn't mean you can't try to enjoy it at least

Because they aren't intelligent enough to conceptualize such a reality, to them everything has to be in a conceptual box lest they go insane.

If your life is meaningless then it's because you haven't given it meaning. I live to enjoy myself. I used to think being a NEET was all I wanted and I wasn't wrong. What I didn't realise that was that to even live that kind of basic life, I needed money. Which is why I decided to study and get a semi-decent job so I could enjoy life the way I wanted to.

Eating food, drinking alcohol, playing video games, watching movies. All things I love, that make life worth living.

If you don't enjoy these things then figure out what you do enjoy and then figure out how to enjoy it forever. If you don't enjoy anything then maybe it's time to leave.

What was the purpose of putting the school/job part in that post?

>>25637357
This is true.
I've grown tired of being a NEET, and doing all those things.
At some point, I thought the only things that mattered was friends and love, but those things are impossible for me.
I want to leave very soon.

How does somebody support themselves without money? You need a job to get money. If you can get a good job without a degree then you're better than me.

My retarded brain completely disregarded the foreshadowing in your post which was the NEET part.

Don't mind me, I'll just leave now.
>>
>>25637242
Because many normies have realized and accepted the human condition. There is no external benchmark of meaning because the universe is absurdly incomorehensible. As a result, they determine that the only meaning that matters is the internal subjective reason. After all, when you die all of this ceases to exist, so all that matters is how you view yourself while you're alive. It's not intellectually honest, but who cares. No one is going to finger wag at you later if you believe a bunch of shit about yourself that isn't objectively true and it sure beats wallowing in pity.
>>
>>25637489
It's okay. The school and job part was to explain how I could enjoy the same things I enjoyed as a NEET, but forever instead of until my parents were gone.

The delusion is that death is the end. Renewed life awaits. You will find a chance to attain it whether you want to or not, but the choice is yours. Follow your desire and never give up on it. The fate that others have taught you is false. You will know a happiness unknown to normies or robots. I wasn't able to find it until I was made plans to die, I wonder if it's always the same for others. I hope not.

Objectively speaking a single human could be considered insignificant, even hundreds or more could be according to various perspectives. However from the human perspective it only seems that way. A humans' true potential is so great that the majority of humans can hardly imagine it at all. Your belief that your life lacks meaning is born through the "fate" that others have taught you. You have a fundamental misunderstanding of the way that the world around you truly works. While many (normies) have already accepted that fate even against their own desires the people here are generally far more reluctant. Many deny it entirely and resist it at every turn, but without knowing an alternative they fall into immense suffering born from their fear. Their narrow view of future possiblities entraps them. If they would only open their other eye they would see the truly blissful possibilities that await them. The only problem is that no ones ever told them that they have more than one eye to open. It will happen though, there's a right time for everything. The only question is whether or not you'll believe the truth when you hear it. Keep an open mind, otherwise you may reject that possibility that you have two eyes altogether. You'll likely have more than one chance, but continued rejection will lead to a certain death. The death that you desired.
>>
>>25638103
Well it really depends on your perspective. We only have ourselves so its hard to put a quantifiable "value" on a persons life. This is one of the main reasons even I believe in a god type thing. That and i have seen some anomalies that allowed me to see past our reality

It'd be more accurate to say that everything possible is currently happening, but of course that would just sound nonsensical to most people. Even if you explain that there is no end or beginning. That only the current moment exists. Hell even I don't really understand it yet. I have yet to experience it.
>>25638451
It also proves that non-irrelevance is a possibility. It's up to you to choose life or accept death. Technically not a hard choice, but it requires changing your mind. That becomes far more difficult the older you get.

Existance is literally meaningless

Unless after you die you get put in the brain of one of your offspring and/or after your initial birth, life literally has no point

Trying to get a high score doesn't matter. Whether you do a lethal or non-lethal run doesn't matter. Whether you just have fun or become a RP faggot doesn't matter.

Yep, it was actually really freeing for me to finally come to terms with it, I always knew along we are just lying to myself but now that I can actually say it and mean it, it's like what now? Well who cares because I'll do what I like, other people are not my concern and not my problem. Especially since I am so young, I still have many years to goof off and fart around and get my act together, as if that's the only thing a person can do with their time. I draw, I'm learning music, I smoke a shit ton of weed, yess but it gives me amazing dreams. I'll become something when I figure out why I would want to, right now the only reason I can see would be to try to fit in and serve a purpose, which frankly I find a bit insulting. My ancestors didn't die so I could get a shit job at starbucks and die for the dollar just to feel fulfilled with myself.

You staying with a cheating bitch has nothing to do with society's lies. You stay with her because you feel like you can't do better, or that you don't deserve better.

We're not meant to see ourselves as individuals. We are happiest when we live deliberately as part of a group, and are unable to comprehend living without it. This is the normies' advantage over us and why they will always be happier.

lmfao
>>
>>25642579
Well we're not doing anything instinctively. We're not capable of acting by instinct, that's why we're here.

All humans are capable in theory of thinking the thoughts that we think, but because others act instinctively they never have need of thought.

We don't have any exceptional 'abilities' or insights; we're discussing these things because we have no alternative but to.

You're putting the cart before the horse. More intelligent people, for example, are less likely to be socially adept. We see intelligence as a gift but it's really a failure. It obstructs us and means we can't live deliberately.

Intelligence may be an ability, but I think it's an inferior one compared with the ability to live deliberately.
>>

I agree with almost everything you said. It's true that we unlike 90% of humanity (normies) have no instincts. It's true that we are more socially inept etc.. but I disagree on one thing.

>Intelligence may be an ability, but I think it's an inferior one

No. Just no. Better living a miserable life on the red pill than living a "happy" life on the blue pill.

Mind over matter my friend. Mind over matter. Or mind over instincts.

We may be bitter autists but we are also far better equipped to do shit normies can't even fathom. For once we aren't as emotional as normies and can endure isolation far better. The other thing is when you are smart enough you can hack/cheat the whole system and either get rich or if you want to be just as hedonistic as normies go to the darknet and get all the 'feel good' chemicals you want. Or get the best vidya/entertainment you want for free. Or enjoy plots which are too complicated for normies.. and the best of all: We can connect to and UNDERSTAND other intelligent people. That's a whole universe that is totally closed for normies. They can read philosophy but they don't understand it.

Intelligence is never a failure, no matter how many downsides there are. Fuck living deliberately and fuck mindless hedonism. Some of the most brilliant people were the loneliest/most bitter/most miserable fucks you could find. We are simply a part of that glorious tradition.

But if I were given an option to choose whether I should be born or not, I'd have probably chosen the second. For me, it's hard to imagine a death like something non-materialistic. I assume that neurons are decaying, you wouldn't even know that you ever had a life once. Meanwhile, I hope that there is nothing after death, and an ability to think rational is much more valuable than knowledge about fundamental questions and answers.
