Nice pic faggot

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" or something along those lines.

Just remembered that quote when I saw this thread. Been battling depression pretty badly lately and I thought fuck, maybe I can't get better right away but at least I can start going forward rather than backwards. Even if I make slow as hell progress, it's still better than regressing isn't it?

>>40473450
you have to move forward. you have to. i know so many people with depression who spend their lives rotting away.

it's easy to sit back, wallow in self-pity, get the occasional pity bullshit, but fuck that. that's not living, that's not life.

"WHATEVER IT TAKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! C'MON!!!!!!!!!!!"

-Rich Piana

I went to the gym yesterday and dropped my gym shorts in a puddle in the showers. I also forgot my shirt so had only a long sleeve pullover. And I forgot my towel. And a change of underwear. My only other pants were not suitable for working out in so i was about to say fuck it.

But then I remembered it was B day and two days of rest afterward and I would fuck up my gains if i skipped. I sat there for a good five minutes in my underoos before I said 'Fuck It' , suited up and did my whole workout of heavy sets looking like I peed my pants and wearing a sweater. them i showered, drip dried in the sauna, and went home commando.

Look to the men of the past anon, that's what I, and I think you could say many of the posters in this thread did. There are plenty of people who are gone now but have dealt with the same things we are and I think there's even enough ITT to get you started. As a martial artist I was especially interested in what the progenitors of my art were like. If you have any similar hobby you like to do, maybe you could look at the people who did it before you. Between all of that you should find something.
Also having a social life is fine if you manage to get one, but are you sure you really need this
>to get acid or whatever and trip.
Perhaps you should try life and social interactions without drugs. It might be beneficial for you to quit, especially if you're just using it as a crutch

This thread made me put down the booze I was drinking and made me take a long hard think about my life.

I'm not gonna provide a quote. I'm gonna tell you all a short story about a man named Alexander.

Alexander the Great conquered the known world and beyond three hundred years before Christ. He never lost a single battle. However, after rampaging through the middle east for a year, he came to an obstacle.

That obstacle was the city of Tyre. See, Alexander had an unbeaten powerhouse of an army, but he had a slight problem. Tyre was an island city, a mile off the coastline, with walls 50 feet high above the sea.

Problem was, Alex didn't have any ships. He dismantled the ones that he used to sail from europe into asia, and used them to make siege engines.

The Tyrians knew this. They denied his request to worship at their temple, and killed his delegates when they came to make terms. They threw the bodies of Greeks into the sea.

Alexander spent the next SIX MONTHS constructing an earthen mole towards the city. He scoured the earth dry to make his bridge.

Tyre used to be an island. Now its a penninsula. Alexander the Great literally changed the world. The physical geography of this planet. Just because people said he couldn't.

Alex was the first one through the breach. He depopulated the city. Ten thousand men were crucified on the beach. The women and children were sold into slavery. The city was depopulated.

Be like Alexander.

The point is even if don't pray to the gods as long as you're sincere to yourself, honorable etc. they'll have your back. The whole "death is the only sincerity" bit is like the saying that the only things that are certain in life are death and taxes and 'you've got nothing to loose' combined. Death is the only certainly so, live like you're already dead, with conviction and without fear. If you're already a dead man nothing can kill you. "Being a dead man" is also often compared with/substituted for a similar concept that waking life is just a dream and when you're going to die, like in war, or otherwise at a critical moment of action, you're awake or alive.

Silent as the footsteps of a Navy SEAL

>>40499339
Yes

It's a bunch of faggots with their dicks in their hands posting Facebook tier quotes from people they've never heard of and thinking it's productive

Gyarados isn't even that good of a Pokemon. Shit moveset, and hyperweak to the electric Pokemon EVERYONE has to deal with all of the goddamn flying types.

Better to be Blastoise. Better stats, better moves, still weak as fuck to electricity.

>>40487801
why are you even here if youre putting someone down whos getting motivated

No need to get jealous hes going to start doing something with his life

>>40499851
Mega Gyarados is a great pokemon in OU, especially with dragon dance and the Water/Dark typing.

Mega-Blastoise has a niche but isn't that great besides providing rapid spin. He'd be amazing if he got Shell Smash

>>40500505
Is Mega Gyarados natty tho?

>>40500566
He gets boosts to his attack and speed, and gets bigger so probably not

OP here, they aren't bad, until the comic fags get here.

>>40499851
It's more about the difference in power between magikarp and gyarados. I mean, mewtwo is goat, but he doesn't really symbolize reinventing yourself all that well.

>>40504911
How's recovery treating you, junkie?

Not that guy, but he didn't say anything bad about it. When you're here for almost a decade you realize how you wrote when you started and how you do now and can recognize the age difference in some posters. It's just strange.

I started here when I was too young to be on the internet and got called a fag for it and turned out okay. I pray the kids here that are experiencing the same thing will find what they need to turn out well too.

>>40503046
I second this

>>40489211
Tbh, I don't mind living that second life. I imagine it gets very lonely though.

>>40476844
This statement is fucking stupid.

>>40510203

Dammit, man!
Does anyone have that screencap where some anon lays down all the way Socrates and his Philosophy buddies were all into the perfect male form and how fucking ripped they all had to be to fight in the militia? I'm gonna try and find it on my other hard-drive

They were already fucked by Thebes a generation beforehand. But Phil, for whatever reason, kept his hands off of them.
