any good philosophy that discusses these things together or separately? not looking for stoicism or anything like that - more like gass's book about the color blue, or adam phillips on tickling.
russell has a book on idleness, but it's not good plus he's a cuck.

Heidegger briefly discusses anxiety, boredom, and other negative states of mind in Being and Time. His ideas that they should be held onto for as long as possible in order to reveal the existential possibilities available to us, in my opinion, has been a very powerful insight in my day-to-day life. Getting through the abstractions and the terminology to appreciate Heidegger's discussions on mood and how they reflect upon the ontological state of affairs requires a lot of philosophical dissection at first, but I think it's well worth it even if you decide that Heidegger isn't your cup of tea.

I have to preface this recommendation for the likely retarded /pol/tard OP, however, because Martin Heidegger was also a cuckold despite being a prominent member of the Nazi Party. Even though Heidegger ended up closer to his bastard child than his biological child, who later ended up passionately managing his estate, you may not find his philosophy worthwhile as a result of his dysfunctional marriage.

i liked the first 1/4 of being in time and then lost the book and never got it back. will definitely go back to finish, sooner rather than later now.
boredom less so, but it just seems like almost everyone takes laziness being an unpardonable sin as given. i can speculate why, but would be cool to read somehow who has looked into it, no matter what they think of laziness in the end

I liked the first book of Being and Time, and while I found the second half of Being and Time interesting and appreciated where it was trying to go, I felt that it was too convoluted and self-contradicting to make any sense of its direction. Definitely finish the first half and then find a better Heidegger scholar to inform you of how to go about understanding Heidegger's philosophical project.

laziness is a sin to the religion of liberal capitalism. protestant work ethics are unfortunately firmly lodged in the prevailing authority in our world.

Oh, you're an idiot.
Rot in boredom, bore.
fundamental concepts of metaphysics has the longest treatise about boredom out of all heidegger texts.
