What is your philosophy on life?

you live to pay back what you've been given

My thinking always ends up with a focus on the divergence between natural life and the fictional "modern society" that has been created.
As humans we were in the world for millions of years - eating, sleeping and fucking. Now, all these modern societal rules have been conceived. Law, business, education, wages, ownership - it's all made up. Everyone else is caught up in this fiction - like ants with VR headsets. They hold huge importance to all these modern fictions and live their lives while under the illusion.
And taking a step back even further - reality is such a strange concept. We are living in a small flash of time on a small planet in an infinite universe. Our existence, in terms of aggregate human life, is minute in comparison to the grand scale of things.
Now, are you still worried about that exam? Are you still desperately sad over that girl?

With this kind of mindset, it is easy to fall into a nihilistic mindset. For me, I just feel like I see through everything - I can use this "fictional reality" to my advantage - but I also realise the unimportance of it all.

I don't think anyone "should" or "shouldn't".. what works for one person might not work for another

My normie view on things:
Existence is an insignificant stretch of time crushed between two eternities, the one before my birth and the one after my death.
Life, consciousness, intelligence and technological civilization are all rare flukes in an unfathomably large, empty and uncaring universe.
I drew two conclusions from this that constitute the basis of the philosophy through which I navigate life :
- since there is no overarching, intrinsic meaning to anything I am free to create my own, to give value to what I see fit and to seek fulfillment in the process.
- my existence is objectively and utterly irrelevant and insignificant, that means its only value comes from my subjective experience and that gives it an all-redeeming quality: it is unique, singular, once it's gone it's forever, never to exist again, there will never in eons to come be another me. This makes my existence precious and place my well-being at the center of everything.
From that a few things seem natural :
- I try to be a decent person, because it appears logical to me that the contrary would be to actively diminish the well-being of others, which I think ought to be at the center of their world-view. I have no doubt assholes think along the same lines but discard their fellow man's feelings as irrelevant next to theirs, the difference with me is I don't find it morally/intellectually satisfying, hence diminishing my enjoyment, so I try to be decent.
- Pleasure is a great way to reach well-being and it comes in many forms (good conversation, lazing outside during a nice day, regular and varied sex, relationships, food, etc), so I seek it as long as it isn't at odds with my continued existence or that of others.
- Considering the origins of intelligence here and our biological nature, one can't ignore we're social animals, I know it's hard to hear for /r9k/, but you're never right alone and you can't go through life alone, we need each other for our well-being to be ensured.

Hedonism and agnostic theism. Live life for pleasure and don't be too shitty of a person in case there is some kind of deity that cares about that morality shit.
There is no free will therefore everything has already been decided for me so I can chill through life knowing that everything I do is right

Nihilistic hedonism.
Coke, booze and hookers with nice feet.
If i dont get this job im going to kill myself, if i do im going to hate everyone who shat on me. FUCKKKKKKKKK
Being strong is fundamental.
Strenght comes from the possibility of change.
I should always be able to change to adapt myself.
Life is difficult, but happy. People complain too much.
There is no reason for which i am alive. That means im free.
One has to differentiate between good and evil by himself. At the end, its always subjective. You should live by your own rules.
There is no hell or heaven, only nothingness after life. And thats great.
It is important to know oneself.
God doesnt care about you, but you should care about God.

[...] All beings so far have created something beyond themselves; and do you want to be the ebb of this great flood, and even go back to the beasts rather than overcome man? What is ape to man? A laughingstock or painful embarrassment. And man shall be that to Ubermensch: a laughingstock or painful embarrassment. You have made your way from worm to man, and much in you is still worm. Once you were apes, and even now, too, man is more ape than any ape...The Ubermensch is the meaning of the earth. Let your will say: the Ubermensch shall be the meaning of the earth... Man is a rope, tied between beast and Ubermensch - a rope over an abyss...what is great in man is that he is a bridge and not an end..."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absurdism
Am I right?
>>28859546
Absurdism according to Camus is more of a "reaction" to the absurdity of existence. Camus calls it a rebellion. The pic I posted isn't about rebelling against the absurd as much as it's about embracing it with irony.
I want it to end because it's pure suffering but I'm not strong enough to end it myself.

>>28859569
There has to be a school of thought that covers embracing absurdity with irony.

There's a lot of us, go for a long walk tomorrow friend
>>28859652
(cont)It may help you think clearer
>>28859569
Yes it is about rebelling
The metaphor he uses is a rebellion against the status quo, most people would just enjoy the movie or watch the whole thing and then complain about it after. To embrace this "smugness" you have to rebel against the thought of being a normal person
>>28859652
>>28859670
If it was that easy I wouldn't have been struggling with this for a decade.
10 years without a happy moment and I just can't end it because I'm a bitch.
>>28859700
you could also try ketamine, its pretty legit
>>28859685
I disagree, rebellion against the absurd, as it is described in absurdist literature, is not the same thing as putting yourself above it. While rebellion involves action, the metaphor used in the pic is more akin to non-action and passiveness.

>>28859793
I used to be an egoist but then I realized that I was spooked by the idea of not being spooked, so I embraced spookiness.
>>28859851
that's some spooky shit famalam, that's why I'm an Ancom who likes Stirner
>>28859864
>that's some spooky shit famalam
Well, yeah, but I found it more rewarding to stop trying to escape the spooks rather than actively try to eradicate them. Stirner is right, but it changes fundamentally nothing to be an egoist. I agree with everything he says yet I've rejected the idea of consciously being a radical egoist.
>that's why I'm an Ancom
Ancom is not anarchism, though. It would inevitably require the use of coercive force in order to maintain itself, which goes against the most basic principles of anarchism.
Putting all opinions aside, it's obvious that an "anarcho"-communist society can't be achieved (just like ancap). The best answer is minarchism.
A true egoist would subscribe to the idea of illegalism, though.
yoooo if you were going to slay ur le self this board would encourage it. wtf?
For me, it is nihilism. I'm intelligent, nihilistic, and with a wicked sense of humor.
>>28856162
Can get away with ignoring concepts like names by being familiar and falsely empowering people with my tone.
Never had expectations for life so there's no reason to despair over meaninglessness of this short period of human consciousness in the entropic system.
Pretty nihilistic. I hate hedonists who call themselves optimistic nihilists though.
>>28856471
>>28859793
>>28859851
>>28859864
>>28859940
Life is too short to care about what is spook and what isn't.
Radical pragmatism is the only way.
Nothing matters. Everyone dies eventually. I just want to be comfy. Don't give a shit about "reaching my potential" or "helping the world." I have nothing against anyone who does though. I just want to feel pleasure and minimize pain, until I die.
Judgments, judgments of value about life, for it or against it, can in the end never be true: they have value only as symptoms, they are worthy of consideration only as symptoms; in themselves such judgments are meaningless. One must stretch out one's hands and attempt to grasp this amazing subtlety, that the value of life cannot be estimated. Not by the living, for they are an interested party, even a bone of contention, and not impartial judges; not by the dead, for a different reason.
>>28860060
I, too, am a nihilist, for my superior intellect makes me perceive this absurd and cruel world of ours with an overpowering intensity. Good day to you, sir!
you say you want meaning, but think about what "meaning" or "purpose" actually entails
wanna fuck off and play video games instead of stacking boxes in God's Ultimate Kingdom? too bad, you've got your fucking purpose and it's boxes
once you have meaning, you are enslaved to it, and everything else turns to ashes in your mouth. you're basically a bot.
divine meaning may or may not exist but my view is that it's fucking black magic and you should steer the fuck clear of anything that professes to recieve it, ESPECIALLY if they're legit, unless you want to end up getting fucking borged

that is better to live in your imaginary world
Always to me beloved was this lonely hillside
And the hedgerow creeping over and always hiding
The distances, the horizon's furthest reaches.
But as I sit and gaze, there is an endless
Space still beyond, there is a more than mortal
Silence spread out to the last depth of peace,
Which in my thought I shape until my heart
Scarcely can hide a fear. And as the wind
Comes through the copses sighing to my ears,
The infinite silence and the passing voice
I must compare: remembering the seasons,
Quiet in dead eternity, and the present,
Living and sounding still. And into this
Immensity my thought sinks ever drowning,
And it is sweet to shipwreck in such a sea.

>>28860472
The narrative gives people purpose. It allows them to view their actions as right and wrong from within the perspective of their narrative. People view events as having a beginning and an end, in reality there is no event just a point in a continuum of moments we call duration.
None of this matters, but having a job is better than being homeless. Trying to make the best of what you got is better than crying, wishing for it to get better. No one cares, no one is going to save you. Only you can save you, and only you matter. Weakness is unforgivable. Ignorance is unforgivable. Laziness is unforgivable. Only you, can create the world you so desperately want.

>>28860924
Well according to you, the "official" definitions of nihilism are just meme definitions?
Nietzschean nihilism is existentially pessimistic.
there is no higher purpose, no heaven, no hell, no good or evil, no morality
everything is just protons, electrons and neutrons, floating in vacuum for millenia
everything can be understood through watching these protons, electrons and neutrons interact
these protons, electrons and neutrons are our whole world and we have to deal with it
basically nihilism + determinism + common sense
