>who the fuck am I supposed to talk to when I don't have any friends?
my friend told me that smart people talk to themselves. she was randomly talking to herself loudly, it was good fun.
>I would never think there is someone who has the same problem
I guess it might be pretty common, I don't know. My bigger issue is really that I just need to be alone a lot otherwise I'm exhausted and the other person feels it. Then gf asks you that classical "what happened to you? you changed. you don't love me like you used to?" which is pretty childish and stupid question but answer is flat out I'm just tired, see you few months later. The few contacts/friends I still have, they are used to me not responding or meeting them for half-year to 2 years just because if I don't feel like talking then I just avoid them whenever it is possible. I can be very open and socialize easily but that the same time I'm comfortable alone, not even opening my mouth for days at all. It's always this duality of my personality in every aspect that truly kills me, I'm not 1 complete person, I'm as if you would ripped two completely opposite people and glued them together.

Ah and I remember Tarek the pakistani guy.
He took his playstation portable to work and played entire morning on it. He opens a drawers with material and holds it there. Then when somebody comes to see him, he just lets it fall down and closes the drawers. Worked every time.

Yes, it's sort of this way. My brother also did it. I remember asking him if anyone came to our house because I heard him talking but he was alone and making jokes like 'well if i don't have anyone smart enough to talk to, i have to talk to myself'.
>for me it feels like I have 2 sides inside me. one rational and one emotional. both of them in eternal jihad with each other
Mine are both ridiculously ruled by emotions but are opposite in everything else. It brings these weird situations when I'm inconsistent in some of minor views (and receive hate because people expect you to be 100% consistent forever) partly because of this and partly because I question everything. I'm fucking glad I'm not alone in this because people don't get it and it's destroying me from inside. I don't even fucking know what the hell I want, I can't make finite decisions, I always feel like nothing is 100% right, you know the drill.

I did not say that any sane people SHOULD marry and create more children (as bringing more children into this materialist globohomo world is foolish at best and evil at worst) I meant that one with a small modicum of sanity either WANTED to, or still WANTS to. Having an intention to do something =/= actually doing it. Sometimes I still have some voice in my head telling I should find a young qt girl and give her a football team worth of children, but I think I can count on one hand how much I talked with a girl my age outside when it was some kind of official business.

that is an oversimplification.
We exist to benefit our genes, or,
We exist to make our genes as common as possible.
I remember reading at some point about some isolated population in africa where those implicit associations tests things showed that the men care more for their (probably half-)sister's kids than their own kids. I've already just given you a hint as to why this is, they are extremely promiscuous. There is more genetic benefit to look after the genes of your half sister than the genes of what has a very very low chance of being your kid. In other words, family has genetic value to you, so much so that in some cases it directly overpowers your drive to raise what even modern medical practices determines to be your kid.
Ethnicity / race is just a broader shallower family.
You can still to a lesser extent have your actions be genetically beneficial if they are for the benefit of your race.

I think I should adress this with a post also
The profession I originally wanted to learn was doctor.
Even today I sometimes ask myself how my life would look today, if I followed the original plan.
>go to academic high school
>enter college
>find some shitty students part time job
>or mooch off govt for studentbucks like my parents would suggest
>travel every day in craped train to uni
>spend semester break learning for exams
>finally get your diploma
>only to start as some underpaid assistant doctor in some shitty hospital
and mommy could tell everyone that junior is doctor
Knowing that I was a fuckup, it would have probably been the same shit as now, just perma broke and without technological knowledge. But I really wonder if I would have found friends in high school or college. When I was younger, I was not that pessimistic about everything. Around 18/19/20 I was pretty bloomer kind of guy with high hopes for the future, optimistic and everything.
I honestly think that peers are the only thing that can prevent you from becoming a total failure in life. Imagine if you had some people everyday asking you to come to college, study with them, help them with work and essays and stuff like that. Even if you wanted to be a lazy shit at home skipping uni, there would be people that depend on you and you cannot dissapoint them …
Maybe I would have been a doc in a hospital by now. Permanently stressed with patients and 60 hour weeks with no time to question my existence or sorrows at all. I read doctors are the profession with highest stress, drug, alcoholism and suicide problems in most countries. Ironic, isn't it …

They didnt decided shit, thats the biggest irony of all this. They just wanted stuff and when you can't create wealth what you do? you steal it. The middle class is going extinct all over the developed and semi-developed world, why? because their wealth was siphoned into a small number of hands by deliberately shady banking practices and opaque financial instruments. Meanwhile most of the social upheaval caused by social media is just a consequence of the pursuit of profits, there is no secret plan to keep you down nigger, you're just a bump in the road and you're getting run over.

Military to be honest. I sort of had pilot background because father was heavily into it and he used to fly with small civilian planes when he was younger but I grew up with it pretty much, he took me to air days or how it is called in english, bought me books about war planes and whatnot. Grandfather was also in military even though not a pilot but he supported me in this interest. Then when I was like 7 or 8, my sight got worse and it went downhill since then which made it harder if not straight up impossible to pursue this goal. To be fair, I never had any outstanding physical condition as well, I probably wouldn't pass tests on centrifuge. Those psychos who fly Gripens and whatnot have my respect.

Wanted to be a soldier as a kid. I don't feel like it's a good idea anymore understanding the politics of war a bit better now.
After that I wanted to become a programmer, but I don't have the discipline to self teach a language or I'll go balls deep, burn out and retain fuck all information. I don't want to go back to college and deal with bullshit classes that aren't related to the subject. I'm not that interested in having some soul killing office job anyway.

Office drone seems fun. I work in IT so I see them a lot when they need help plugging their usb devices in. They are basically like little kids playing adult. They dress up nice and clean and sit at their desks and fuck around on the internet all day. Printer's down? They shoot the shit with me for a half hour while I fix it. I've never seen somebody work. The coffee ritual is nice too. Honestly I suggest this route if you are lose and hopeless- most office drones seem to be. If you are worried about spending your days with norimes you can relax because normies don't even seem to exist. Everybody is weird under the hood.

I am an office drone and getting the fuck out ASAP. I do not recommend it. You are 100% correct about not doing anything. I literally work 1 hour out of an 8 hour work day.
This might sound nice to you but experiencing it, it is absolutely soul draining. You can fuck around on the internet for a while, sure. But you can only really access ultra normalfag stuff. Mainstream media websites, youtube and that's about it really. You wouldn't want to be caught on a website like this, that's for sure.
And you absolutely have to interact with normals all day. An office is a very social environment.

Downside and benefit of IT is this (if you are lucky to not work in total slavecorp):
>you can pretend that you work, 1/3 of time you are shitposting, 1/3 of time you are doing what you want anyway, 1/3 of time you are actually working
<suddenly you are facing the deadline or just something goes wrong: sitting behind PC 12-16 hours a day, sleep even less than usually, work during weekends, work during holidays, etc.
<if you can't not give a shit, you spend your free time thinking about work anyway, studying new materials and trying new shit
Good is that you can get paid very good for overtimes, also you can get bonuses after project is done and you can get pretty long vacation. The downside is that many people prefer rather more stable working environment, where you know you every day work 9-5, then go home and chill. Another downside is that, depends where you work, but part of my job is to be always aware of new standards and new features in APIs we work with, so it's maybe like being teacher or something, work where you should optimally have your knowledge up to date. I'd much rather prefer doing similar stuff for less money in some FOSS project which is living from donations and has its own foundation taking care of finances but that's just a dream.

I am so with you it isn't even funny. What the fuck is our society? A bunch of cattle more interested in a glowing rectangle than the people in the room with them? The most important part of the most vocal minority's identity is their sexual fetishism, which must be broadcast and somehow being lgbtwhatever falls under feminism and therefore national attention on an almost daily basis. Our "society" is presently intent upon destroying access to everything that made it e.g. home ownership, normal gender relations, occupation oriented education, the natural world around us, etc. People in this "society" are taken seriously when they say "women can have penises" and I am supposed to feel some form of obligation to this "society" of which I am a part? What the fuck is going on!
