>Descartes recounts that he mocked friends of his who once showed up at his home at 11:00am in the morning and was surprised to find him still in bed.
>"What are you doing?" they inquired skeptically.

>The group was stunned, but Descartes criticized them in turn for privileging often nonsensical practical tasks over the beauty of pure quiet reflection in bed.

Is this the most definitive argument for the maintenance of NEETdom there is? How will you transcend the superficial, materialistic societal orders and contemplate profound thoughts through the activation of the highest forms of knowledge and ideas if you actively participate in the system and pursue fruitless wage cuck jobs?

I think the trick is finding an easy job that pays you well. In other words, a sensical practice.
Laying in bed all day gets old, and depressing.

No, moderation is key. You can't be a neet forever, and you shouldn't wageslave yourself to death. Take the two extremes, and it's common sense that nothing healthy/viable comes out of them.

The problem with NEETdom is that most don't use the time for growth while getting dumber and dumber consuming shit. At least wagecuckery forces you to take care of the basics, and gives you experience to have something to contemplate about.

He was one of the most renowned erudites in philosophy and history, while also being a brilliant scientist. If anything, thinking in bed is working, to Descartes.
>>
was Descartes right? Could everything be answered with logic, even existence of soul and God?
He argues that perfect entity is going toward existing because existing is part of being perfect, and every entity wants best for itself. But what if God want to die, as a perfect entity he should have right to dying as much as he has right to existing?
Yes/NO?

Schopenhauer wrote stuff to this effect in his essays.

This meme that "the dumb normie masses think" HAS TO END. They DON'T think. They're NOT fucking conscious.

I always knew that my failure to socialise and have friends was completely indicative of mental faculties that I have but the masses don't have

You only hate "superficial materialism" because you don't have enough money.
>>
>>9726400
Not OP but not a big fan of materialism either. I had one year when I didn't have to look at the prices. Nothing overly crazy but basically middle class standards. Coming from a poor family and having one meal per day, it was quite a big deal for me.

Shit was fun at start with couple trips around the world (too bad I skipped Murica), drugs, shopping trips for me and my friends and generally being able to surprise/help people in a time efficient way. Just it wasn't worth having to work 60h+ for a company I couldn't care less about, and waking up at times I don't want to. Enjoying NEETdom for 2 years now and while I do miss the freedom money offered, it's balanced out by the freedom to live for myself. Wouldn't want to work for someone else again at any cost.

"Profundity" is a meaningless and valueless quality for a thought to have.

Simple, by means of the pineal gland.

tfw you don't know whether you act just like them, adapting to manage these social skills and therefore getting laid more (and other social bonus) or keep being indifferent for anyone, keeping this hate for society and be seemed as an autist.
