It sucks. It really really sucks.

I wish we had the old internet back, like back when I was a teen in a basement. BBSes, IRC, warez, spam, and everything in between. The net is so... cushioned, now. Everything is ultra-safe, ultra-polished, and backed by some shadowy megacorp. And I think the worst part is that nobody cares.

I'm getting those feelings again. I don't have the most stable mind to begin with, but with every new job, I slowly go like this:

>coworkers like me at first, quiet, occasionally funny, hard worker
>they start to learn more about me
>find out I'm a huge fucking loser with no friends and no family
>and who would want to spend time with a loser
>can't get out of this constant feeling of dread and desire to just quell my needs, so I just buy things I don't and won't ever need and eat to the point where it hurts my stomach enough that I don't think about my problems

I hate this life, I don't want it. I wake up every morning and wonder why god just doesn't kill me already. I have tons of money made to give to the only person who ever gave a flying fuck about me in this world, my brother, when I die, so why the fuck doesn't god just kill me? I'm not happy, I can't make anyone else happy, and I won't ever be happy.

"Met" girl online while playing a strange game. Didn't even knew she was a woman, we just got along very well and talking all kinda of shit.

Little by little she starts to get Into me always appearing all the time to talk and being super sweet. Start to get attached and return the feeling instead of just talking shit, she is starting to get detached very quickly.

I don't even have a reaction image for this.

How did you do that? A common reason for this is you coming off as needy/beta.
>>
>>54066156
I wouldn't say beta, but needy is possible.
She didn't appear online a lot, but the more we talked, the more she appeared and not even to play, just to talk to me for hours. she would even get worried thinking shit if I didn't reply back rather quickly. She is also kind of needy.
The biggest problem i think is have cut down on talking shit with her, that's when things started to seem more adrift.

31 and virgin here. Almost 32.

Getting fatter by the day, have type 1 diabeetus, little to no motivation for anything anymore. Can't even play casual games. All my friends are married or doing their own thing and I barely talk to them anymore. Living with mom because she has no income and she divorced dad with no alimony over a decade ago. Work indoors all day dealing with customers. Plenty of people worse off than me but I still wallow in self pity. Not sure where to go from here other than just keep doing what I've been doing for the forseeable future. Can barely bring myself to smile.
>>
I'm in my 30s. I got a 6 figure job but I'm not really happy or even satisfied.. I'm just bored.

no gf, video games are boring now, programming has lost its luster, all there's left is to save and invest money until I have enough to live off the interest and that will take another 15-20 years.

Used to be pretty happy with my life. Played drums in a couple of bands and did MMA and kickboxing.

Went from fit to very, very fat when I started university (because I got really, really tired of exercising, I hated other /fit/izens with a passion). Stopped playing drums because lack of time (uni + part time job took most of my time). But still pretty happy, had a couple of gfs.

Then I started doing my masters. Got a psycho gf who basically wrecked chaos and havoc in my personal life, she moved in with me and it ended up with her fucking my landlord behind my back (in my own bed) and got me thrown out of the apartment over night. Got seriously depressed, had to start working full time as a programmer in order to support myself, did my job at day time and tried (but failed) to do my master in evenings and in weekends. Got completely exhausted and after using four years on what should have taken two I finally completed. Started in a new job as an embedded developer, the boss was horrible and I quit after 6 months.

Did however start doing a PhD, and now a year into my PhD I'm actually feeling quite happy again. Still obese as fuck, no gf, shitty diet, shitty backstabbing friends and my salary is shit, but I still managed to scrape enough together to buy an apartment and I do a lot of exiting things at work and get to travel *a lot* because of conferences and shit. Started playing drums again, and I'm now playing regularly every week in a band.

I still eat shit and I'm broke all the time and tired/exhausted half the time, but meh. At least I love my job.

Oh, and I picked up tinkering with some entry-level arduino shit and minor soldering stuff as a hobby, which is fun to do.

Is this really considered crazy? I throw away old books all the time, stuff I either didn't like when I read it or books that I've read too many times.

I've also thrown away almost all my old CDs, except some I consider collectibles. Why would I keep around hundreds of CDs when I can just play from my media centre. I don't even think I have a CD/DVD/BluRay player at all anymore.

I know. I am seeing it every day on the friend I mentioned. He got married, she pushed for it, then pushed for a baby, they have a 10 month old now. He hates everything about both of them, avoids their apartment like plague (and it's a nice one that his somewhat wealthy family paid for) and overall does everything in his power to not have to be home. Despises weekends too.

I don't wanna get there. God I wish there was contraception for men to make sure she doesn't "forget" to take the pill...

>>54067097
And I did the same when I got my drives. But you didn't just throw out all the content you ever had. You only gave it up when you found a better way of storing it. All my media is kept in the same amount of space as a shoebox. I can't see how that makes me a hoarder.

Don't, dude. Don't, just don't.

If you never want to have a baby in your life, get a vasectomy. That will fertilize you, although you may not want that.

Use a condom every time, or make it clear to her that you think it's way too early and that you still want to enjoy life.

You've seen how it goes once you have a baby. Right now, you can still move away and forget everything. Once the baby's here, you'll be stuck for 18 years.

>>54067144
Well, for books I don't read e-books. I hate reading on computer screens and I can't afford a Kindle right now.

As for music, I mostly stream which is good enough for most cases. I'm an audiophile when it comes to playing music (as in making music), but for just listening to music the quality of streamed music from Spotify and Wimp is good enough for me. Only in rare cases, where the band I'm looking for isn't on any of the services, do I torrent shit.

It's the same for movies, I threw away all my old DVDs and I do download movies and series I watch, but I don't keep it laying around on the disk. Why would I, I could always re-download it if I want to watch it again.

Maybe. But "working out", read the traditional "lifting things up and down" is mostly done for aesthetics reasons. And when it comes to aesthetics, the face is the only thing that matters.

Now give me a single valid reason to "work out" if you don't get the aesthetics gains out of it because your face is painfully average or below average.

There's absolutely none.

I just can't imagine any way of life that doesn't suck, even if i would win the lottery or something i still wouldn't feel better. And yeah i want to kill myself, but i don't want to make my mom sad. Yup - That's the only reason.

It basically boils down to Maslow's model. Most people ITT have issues regarding self-esteem and self-realisation/actualisation. I'm depressed because I'm buried in debt and the last day before every single fucking pay day I can't even afford food.

I don't need a qt3.14 average looking korean gf or an expensive gaming rig or even a fancy six figure job or to look like some mix between brad pitt and zyzz or have a lot of friends so I don't feel lonley.... I just don't want to struggle to make ends meet so I could for example afford taking a vacation for the first time in 12 years.

>And I don't think the 1% owning shit is what's making you feel depressed.
No, but I'm just trying to point out that even if I got five billion people to hold hands and sing cumbayah, it isn't going to change anything.

For fuck's sake. You need an uplink technology, correct?

WWW is an application for the internet (it's even incorrectly referred to as "the internet" in those cartoons), correct?

The cartoon clearly states that the internet doesn't exist anymore, correct?

So assuming he gets a HTTP 404 because there is actually something that replies, there must exist at least some sort of web server at the other end. In order for him to have an end-to-end connection to that web server, he needs to have a network connection. In order to have that network connection, he needs some sort of uplink technology, correct?

Now, since the internet doesn't exist anymore, it is unlikely that there would be some shadow-internet that still exists with the infrastructure and servers and routers because that all consumes power and power costs money. And even if it did, he would still need some sort of uplink to it.

Do you really think you can just take an ethernet cord and stretch it to your closest IXP and everything would just work? The internet is basically made up of a bunch of autonomous networks, each using their own technology. ISPs are the consumer-facing end-points.

My only hope is pretty much this: one day machine intelligence is finally developed,it rapidly solves all our (objectively small and stupid) human problems. We get to live in an utopian society where we do not depend on wageslaving to survive, where there are no illnesses, no crimes, no need for wars and politics because post-scarcity and humans don't control the infrastructure anymore anyway. Humanity will probably split into thousands of self-interested groups pursuing their own ideas of ideal lifestyle. All the present wreck of the world will be quickly forgotten, like a bad dream.

I hope that will happen some day, so I continue to live. I have came to the same conclusion again and again: the world is too complex now, humans just can't control it anymore. Some more advanced form of intelligence is needed to fix all the wreck we have created. It is not impossible, after all...

My point is more deep than that. You see, humanity is ridden with problems. These problems can only be solved by applying science and engineering.

Only a small part of the population does science and engineering. There is this whole burden of FIRE economy - lawyers, financiers, accountants, rentiers etcetera. They don't push progress forward, instead they just leech off productive people (scientists, engineers, programmers and workers).

You chose to be a leech too. You could develop cool stuff that helps people. Instead you chose to become a digital lockpicker into a career. idk I wouldn't like to end like this. There is a cool example of hacker becoming brilliant dev though: http://www.bloomberg.com/features/2015-george-hotz-self-driving-car/ but it's an outlier.

>>54068845
I think it's the fact that people who are trans tend to spend their early lives on the net because they're drawn to the fact that you can just *be* the gender of you see yourself as.

So trans people end up either as rabid SJW faggots if their internet residence winds them up on tumblr or some other hugbox shithole, or they wind up here eventually.

I would sooner kill myself than allow my brain to be raped like that.

>>54068931
Speaking as someone who refers to trans people by their birth gender for me it's just that I don't think of someone who was a woman and became a man as the gender they want to be. They'll always be what they were born as in my mind. It's got nothing to do with how convincing they are. In fact I saw a documentary where a woman who became a man went and hung out with a bunch of other blokes and they didn't figure it out. She was more buff and manly than I am, had children of her own and I still think of her as a woman.

Some people just won't do the pronoun thing anon, it's not out of disrespect, they just don't do it.

Also you should definitely see a psychologist. You may be genuinely mentally ill if you think you were born as the wrong gender.

>Some people just won't do the pronoun thing anon, it's not out of disrespect, they just don't do it.
If, theoretically speaking (and not trying to say I am), I was that convincing and there was no way you could sitinguish, as in the example you cited, what makes me NOT a woman?

I hope you realise that, on a physical level, the hormones running through you define your perception of the world, in the way of whichever's gender hormones you have in you. And, if you say chromosomes, I know you know that there's women out there with a Y chromosome, born as women due to genetic defect, and I doubt you call *them* men.

If you can't see someone that is a woman in every observable way as a woman, then what the fuck does being a woman even mean to you? I can't see a reason why you would refer to such a person by their birth sex OTHER than disrespect desu senpai. I'm not just saying this to call you names; I actually want to hear from you how can it be that two people, such as a normal man and a trans man in your example, can be classified differently despite being indistinguishable.

>Also you should definitely see a psychologist. You may be genuinely mentally ill if you think you were born as the wrong gender.
No shit I'm mentally ill. It's called gender identity disorder by modern medicine. The officially sanctioned most effective treatment is hormone replacement therapy followed by pursuit of life as the target gender. I hope that you're aware of that, just sayin.

>I hope you guys tell everyone ahead of time.
I do. I'm not delusional as to how what I am is perceived. At least i'm not into guys so I don't have to deal with the drama of how the idea of being with someone with a dick makes otherwise logical guys insecure. I don't want to be with someone who is vapid enough to dislike me for aspects of my life that I have no control over, anyway.

>dumping db and defacing websites was my hobby
Found your problem right here. You turned your hobby into a job/career. People like to force this life choice down everyone's throats but in my opinion that's not always a good thing. What you like will stop being fun and end up a chore and then eventually you just hate it altogether. I've seen this quite a few times including myself.

>Why do why only feel emptiness? Anxiety? And void? Why can't I sleep?
It's why you're feeling that emptiness is because you've been doing it(since high school?) for so long. Turning a hoppy into a job/career just isn't for everyone really, its why I keep my work life, home life, school life and, hoppies all separate from each other to the point where I don't want to even think about either one while doing the other. It's probably good for building up credits, reputation, job apps, ect. but that shit is a killer on the mental health. Moot was kind of the same way, when he made 4chan. It started out being fun but then it became a real job just trying to manage and maintain the site. He mentioned once that he barly had any time to even look or browse the site HE made. That shit was taking a toll on him.

Okay so you claim guys wouldn't want to be with a guy not because they're heterosexual, but because it would make them insecure?

Grow the fuck up you damaged tranny sack of shit.

If i told you faggots the whole story you probably wouldnt believe me. no one else has. I feel more alone than i ever have but i dont want anyone to know because they will just think i did it to myself and/or had it coming. And maybe i did.

>see pretty girl with pretty feminine features

Yes, insecure is indeed the word I was looking for.

Holy shit you actually believe it, you weren't just shitposting.

So what you're saying is that if I have a dick and balls, but I put on a dress I'm a woman?

You're fucking delusional to boot.

You need to spend less time on tumblr in your hugbox and more time in the real world where your asinine opinions are met with real discussion and not a sounding board of congratulations and comforting reassurance.

Go ahead anon. Even if nobody believes you it can't hurt to put it down on paper, it helps sort out your thoughts and put shit in order. You might even re-evaluate your priorities on your own.

Beautifully well-said...

She doesn't want the D anon, if she did she would have asked you out when you weren't NEET and spineless.

I think maybe you're just starved for affection and really want this girl to be into you.
