How are you doing? - Kiwi Farms Wellness Check

I hate it especially when it's a part of an assignment and there's all these rules and shit that kills the motivation to even look at someone else's work. Like isn't this the teacher's job to check for all these consistencies and this other bullshit?
But it's to "foster a community" and "inspire others and inspire yourself"

Professor, a chunk of my classmates are loony troons writing about tranny relationship drama, religious trauma for being a gender special visiting a church, weird uncomfortable childhood incidents that I don't know if we should be privy to and gore porn.

No thanks.
Worry about what? She can always make another crowdfunding campaign if this one fails. She can present her manuscripts to a publisher, etc. I don't think it should be that big of a deal for you.
Chiming in here. It's an empathy thing. Some people get disappointed and saddened on their loved one's behalf. It may not affect the other guy directly but they can still worry and be upset by how it affects their friend.

Besides, we don't know what else she has done. Maybe this is the final chance?

Thread tax: The people living across the street from me have decided to renovate their house and it's one hell of a project. The entire interior has been ripped out and the house is getting gutted like a fish. As fascinating as it is to watch, I wish they wouldn't work till midnight.
 
Ok now you're pissing me off.
How does it not occur to you that I could be worried about how the likely failure of this campaign may affect her?
Do you not worry about things that happen to your friends?
If my friends are in a healthy state of mind and encountered a setback they'd just try a different avenue. I'd be a little concerned, but I wouldn't post on an anonymous forum using vibes that sound like I think she'll off herself if she fails.
 
Jesus Christ you people

No she's not gonna kill herself

I am a bit worried about her being sad if it fails, so I posted about it in the "How are you doing" thread.

Because that's how I am doing, currently.
I think I see the problem. When you were posting here did you want solution finding or sympathizing?

Sounded like the latter, I thought most of the time we just give hearts on this board and only give solutions to specific posts. Even though there is no rules here.
 
I was hauling a trailer of tools to a jobsite a few counties over, today. It was nice, since I mostly do what I call office bitch stuff anymore, and that gets dull. Listening to tunes and generally enjoying my drive and the weather and my thermos full of coffee. And then I saw it. A license plate that said "MEMELRD." I then had what I can only describe as a visceral hate reaction.

I'm getting too old.

Fortunately, I have not come across that kind of bullshit in my class, but I see too much of horrible below grade level writing that it makes my head hurt. You're in college. Please act with some form of dignity when you write for an English class.

I can’t speak for anyone else, but I know that when I don’t feel good about something, sometimes just telling someone, anyone about it can help, even if it’s just fellow shitposters on a forum. I think it’s just human nature and part of processing emotions.

Oh I’m a dolt and didn’t get to ask you this yesterday, did you know about this page? You could make a little in memoriam about your cat.


Sorry for your loss too
 
I was talking before about burnout and mental fatigue. It got me to thinking psychologically there's probably a connection between people working tech jobs and having degenerate fetishes. My theory is that high stress work creates mental fatigue that people resolve by introducing high dopamine stimulus. This is why you get rich furries who have loads of money to drop on expensive fursuits and shit like that. Well either that or they engage in dangerous activities that pump up their adrenaline levels.

So anyway my thought was that perhaps I just need a new exciting hobby to get into which is why I was looking at Kawasaki Ninjas for sale in my area.

Just expressing the concern I felt.

And I did say I didn't have intentions to shill the campaign, so not trying to solve it either. Beyond the technicals of the platform's limitations about international pledges, I wasn't about to come to the Farms for a personal army (of gibs).

Sorry if I got snippy, too.
 
I, like i think most other males do, just assume everyone is a dude on here.
The Nina Hagen avatar is pretty good, never knew she was known outside of Germany, though i don't actually know your nationality.
The amount of people who recognized Nina Hagen in my avatar on the Farms is a mindfuck. I do not meet people that recognize anything I like in real life, and chances are if I do they're going to be woke as hell.
She isn't generally known to normies but weirdoes definitely know she exists.

She's one of those artists you seek out when the culture in your own country is such cancerous shit that you're disgusted it's metastasizing to the entire planet.
You couldn't have put it any better. A complete and absolute summary of my attitude, rage, and disgust at other people for the dogshit they willingly roll around in. Movies, music, media...

And this shit effects people. People have just CONSTRAINED imaginations and ideas these days. Like you know, when I've complained about being lonely, it's not like I'm crying about having no friends, it's that I go outside and absolutely everyone is reveling in a Salo shit stew of culture. Like one of those screenshots Lidl Drip tried to mock me with, one of those posts I made in rage-disgust that someone recommended me the Super Mario Bros. movie that came out recently, they told me it was my kind of thing and I'd like it. I tried watching it with family during Christmas, we turned it off a bit into it because it was clearly more franchise-starting dogshit with the very obvious plot skeleton of a superhero movie, you know, this shit all follows the same fucking format. I don't even wear logos on clothing unless it's a band I really like or own console, I don't know why I'd be recommended this shit.

I really just want to bash this big cultural blight that has spread out from America onto the rest of the world. I was watching a documentary on rural Mongolia on youtube and even the kids there were slinging their hands around trying to be rappers, and it's just so horrible to see... especially seeing how this kind of music has influenced people, the ghettoization of middle America.

Normies in real life will tell me I listen to "weird" music or even "Halloween" music when it's just fucking Sisters of Mercy (thanks again @Syaoran Li!) because they ALL listen to the same superficial pop or autotuned stuff with no diversity to the sound. It's like the music industry has tried to suppress anything that used to be good. And now nothing (a bit of hyperbole, I know) in American culture is organic at all. It's all planned by these big machines. If someone is musically successful, they just filled in a slot that they were already looking to fill and they had all the right qualities.

I hate remembering the times I've argued with people about autotune. "BUT IT SOUNDS SO COOL!"

Thankfully between the 60s-80s there was so much good cultural output that I probably could get lost in it for the rest of my lifetime.

I didn't grow up with anything that influenced me this way. I just felt wrong about all this shit when I was young. I felt like music was a missed opportunity, like musicians could do so much more but they just didn't. Then I got older, the internet into our homes opened up this shit up to me, and I found out people really did have the right kind of attitude towards creativity and diverse influences and styles and stuff, it just wasn't being shown anywhere I could see it then.

I just got up from a big nap so I'm really groggy, end rant.

Have you ever been interested into making works to change the the zeitgeist? I’m not saying you’ll completely change the culture but maybe if you put out a piece of media you could help improve a life who feels similar to you? Maybe focus some of your frustration and knowledge of the past into making something you and other would like?
 
didn't even like lifting, working out and adhering to a strict diet just put more stress on me
Ironically I love lifting and working out, and I don't have a stict diet. I literally eat whatever the fuck I want within moderation which is just a universal concept for literally anything. Be it drinking, eating, etc.
i judged people hard on what they look like
I do this a lot too when it comes to fat people, though I've been trying very hard not to. And for me it stems from genuine jealousy. Because when I was fat, I knew I was fat and fucking hated it. So when I see fat people who don't care and/or are secure in their self image, it fucks with me because I wasn't like that when I was fat and I'm still not, and i cant comprehend what that's like. So my judgement isn't even from an "I'm better now than you are" angle. It's an "I wish I was as confident" one which makes me spiral even more. Fucking weird man.
A good therapist, emphasis on GOOD, may be able to help by giving you coping methods to help train your brain away from those kinds of thoughts. Unfortunately, finding a good therapist can be aggravating and extremely hit-or-miss. But it's possible!
Yeah I know it's possible, but I just really struggle with the idea of shopping around for therapists to help me deal with something that, objectively speaking, isn't causing me any real harm in life. Especially when I look at the people in my life who do have actually harmful issues whove seen numerous shrinks over 10+ years and still aren't any better. I just think of the thousands of dollars they've essentially wasted on constantly dwelling in their problems with no progress and shudder. I can do that for free

Thank you, I will post him here. I know a lot of people would say he was just a cat, but when he came into my life I was an extremely jaded and bitter person due to how difficult my life had been in the prior years. He helped me see so much good in the world in how kind he was to every person he met. It seems silly, but he changed me for the better.
