Personally, I worked on a coursera course for R. I also send follow-ups with a few contacts who might be able to help me move to a better job.

bump for /sig/

I applied for a job outside of Commiefornia. I cannot abide my tax dollars going to these fuckers anymore. Did pullups, pushups, and did good work at my job today creating wealth for the US of A.

also, here's the sticky.

what if im constitutionally incapable of improving myself?

Start small. Focus on doing small consistently, watch it grow.

Here goes niffin.

stop setting the bar so fucking low you losers

getting pretty good at rape these days!

Remember to beat your snake like it owes you money.

you have the cash for a car good enough for an uber? They don't just rent those out do they?
Get the car the freedom to go where the bus does not take you for a job is good.

I read today.

Qigong or Yoga. Even people in wheelchairs can use the motions to increase quality of life, though in extreme circumstances it may require slight modification. Every baby step adds up.

what if a facet of my constitutional inability is being unable to start at all? what if i cant will myself to care?

gotta start somewhere bro

do you have your porn addiction under control?

Self improvement is education as well.

Have you ever had a day that you wish to emulate over other days that you don't wish to emulate?

Since i work for a bank i get a good interest rate on an auto loan. A $10000 vehicle would be around $250 per month including insurance. Just gotta save a little bit of a down payment.

Good :)

Then you deserve what you get.

i shave my left leg because when im in bed and my legs brush up together it feels like a woman's leg and that makes me think i have a girlfriend sleeping next to me and it stops me feeling so lonely

The old black pill. Im sure here on this board you'll find plenty in the same boat. I got a new job to get out of it, new people new struggles new environment entirely always helps. 9/10 can gurantee youve only felt this way since you've been in a constant stream of the schedule you're in now. No major changes, no opportunity to grown and develop. Like a flower in a closet. Take a hike. Literally

If you're going to be negative why are you here?
Oh yeah, because you're a sad sadistic fuck.

I worked out harrd at the gym and my dick grew 2 inches longer

if this is true, you're a genetic dead end. try not to make a mess when you off yourself.

it's probably not true though. your genes survived 300 thousand years of survival through hardship.

your choice tho. stop complaining.

That's just you being a lazy faggot and going through mental gymnastics to reconcile "wanting to change" without actually intending to change. Do or Do-Not; There is no Try. Stop waiting around for a fairy godmother to wipe your ass and do it yourself.

i dont know

this hit me like a koan

>i shave my left leg because when im in bed and my legs brush up together it feels like a woman's leg and that makes me think i have a girlfriend sleeping next to me and it stops me feeling so lonely

Well done.

Anybody trying to quit drinking or drastically slow down?
Anyone that has done it have any tips ?
I forced myself to go the the library and study tonight but now I'm sipping on a beer.
I know the obvious answer is "just don't fucking drink" but idk

LSD, Shrooms, Ayahuasca. Pick one. Go from there.

What's the deal? Work hard, make money, import Ukrainian wife. Yes?

I ignored all of Monkey Tree's evil Chinese tricks 'n' lies.

I'm 2 smart for them!

FUCK U MS. EMMA!!!

I know u dumb gooks read this shit ; )

Question: I've done horrible horribly degenerate stuff in the past. Is there recovery from that?

It was a very nice day at the gym ;)

I recommend planet fitness its the best Gym

9/10 can gurantee youve only felt this way since you've been in a constant stream of the schedule you're in now.

not incorrect

...

I lost my wallet and someone went to town on my credit card.

What kind of beer? I don't suppose there's anything wrong with enjoying one every other day. If you were pounding hard liquor it might be easier to see it as a problem.

What helped me was just the fact that working my job doing blue collar stuff, when I drank a fuckton, I was just so tired. Falling asleep standing up next to a bandsaw tired. If you either exhaust yourself, or remember how off kilter you were from it all the next morning, it might help. That's more or less what I did. Shit wears you out.

I fixed my sleep cycle, want to start lifting

yes. confession and a willingness to change.

I'm Catholic. Confession is a God-send.

If you really want to put stuff behind you, you can actually make an appointment with a priest and talk it all over even if you're not Catholic. He might not give you the actual sacrament, but there is absolutely nothing like putting all your worst stuff in the open and taking responsibility for it. You'll leave feeling ten times lighter. It's free and he'll never tell anyone.

shit user, get your bank to recover some of it for you

i stopped drinking because i realized it wasn't actually making me better at anything, or making me less anxious, or enjoy anything more, or want to socialize more -- the healthy parts of your mind and body fight it off because its a poison that rots and degenerates. either your healthy mind will fight off the contagion of the poison and preserve itself or you will become another helpless drunk like millions of other people whose lives are wasted.

You can't fix the past so all you can do is work on improving the future.
As social mammals we're programmed to obsess over having beeb social shitheads because being ostracized was a death sentence back in the hunter-gatherer days. But you need to squelch that aspect of yourself and realize we've moved past that shit and we live in a bigger world now.
You can fuck up totally, fix yourself mentally and spiritually, and start anew, you couldn't do that when you 100 or so ape tribe was your world.
That is a luxury we didn't have when we evolved so our brains have a hard time grasping that. So know that we have a greater capacity for rebirth than our instincts tell us we have. Fight through the regret and pessimism and be reborn, for the good of all of us.

Thanks anons.

Feels good man.

I recommend going to the gym (it was fucking epic today!) Planet fitness is the one i like but either way today my once 6 inch cock got 2 inches bigger! Now i have a long stretchy 8 inch cock!

My mexican family

I work night shift and usually keep the schedule (for the most part) on my days off. What are some productive things that I can do into the wee hours of the night in a pretty small apartment space? Ideally something where I could also listen to fashy podcasts.

I've been lifting, reading, cleaning, and bulk cooking, but I need some more. I want to do something with my hands. Currently taking a video game fast. On day 35/90...

confessing that you've done wrong doesn't make you stop doing more wrong, and never has
>You can fuck up totally, fix yourself mentally and spiritually, and start anew
no, you can't. when you reach a certain point you are literal waste.

I just want to remind y'all to exercise and weight lift. Your health will improve. Your mental state will improve. You'll just feel good. Get motivated and begin. Start with push ups and sit-ups, move onto weights after a few weeks. You won't regret it anons.

Set a goal, small enough to manage, say 1 month without alcohol. Then observe how you feel and behave during the sober monrh. Then go back to drinking and compare. You will gain valuable insight into your relationship with alcohol, which could help you curb the habit for good. Then up the ante, say 3-4 months sober.
Whatever you do, stick to your sobriety plan, especially when you are out with friends or family in situations where you usually drink. A huge part of alcohol is social, and as social creatures we prefer to fit in. DON'T FUCKING DO IT. Not even a single drink, that would be succumbing to your weaknesses. I'm aiming for one year of sobriety, and I'm 3 months in right now, so I'm not just talking out of my ass here. Godspeed user.

Learn to play the guitar, build things out of wood, or grow plants indoors. Look into building a "space bucket" and grow some hot peppers or lettuce indoors this winter. Nice work so far!

shoo shoo bait bringer

Lol

Microdose psilosiben. Learn to grow it.

While we're on the subject, can anyone suggest any good fashy podcasts?

Alright user, one more set of triceps just for you.

Hell yeah brother! Today was awsome!

if you get bad habits, you'll never be the way you were before.

However, owning up to your mistakes and verbalizing an intent to change is extremely powerful.

Plus, the sacrament of confession confers powerful graces which can help you turn away from sin ;)

Ben Shapiro podcast is extremely fascist because he is against net neutrality

Why your nazi stuff is always so homoerotic

I listen to bro rogan, sandman (not mgtow but good insight into the absolute state of wymyn), Jordan peterson highlights...and i'm a conspiracy guy so higherside chats, beyond the veil, and crow777. Lots of gnosis and good insight on their channels. Idk any fashy stuff.

Reminder that back in the day Italians and Irish people weren't considered white but now we know that irish men are white. Spics?

White spics?

It's just an aesthetic man defeating a giant snake with his bare hands bro. I think the homo one here is you.

Mysterium Fasces

Sorry, user, I've never felt the desire for alcohol. Perhaps you could focus on the money lost by drinking, and emphasis what else could be done with it? That's more of a negative reason to stop drinking, than a positive one. Ideally, you'd be able to just will yourself to, but I understand that some things just can't be done like that.

Fash the Nation
>Political commentary, in depth
The Daily Shoah
>Cultural commentary, shitposting
The Fatherland
>Peak wholesome dad posting
The Godcast
>Christian posting from the three main branches (Orthodox, Catholic, Protestant)

Those are the main ones, Stefan Molyneaux while I'm at work.

Oh, and I've been playing around with some fashwave for a while now

Can't do guitar because room mate sleeps. Wood working would be hard due to space. Might see about the gardening, could work

Fatherland and Godcast sound fucking based, will check them out. Thanks user.

I'm learning how to talk to short people.

How about painting? It's pretty cheap to get into, it's a creative outlet & bob ross videos are very soothing. I have a canvas and some acrylics set up next to my desk and chip away at it whenenever I want to unwind. It really helps my mind & mood.

We gonna make it bros!

>if you get bad habits, you'll never be the way you were before.
that's what I'm saying. poisons literally eat away parts of you and they become decadent and beyond saving. alcohol should be treated as the poison it is, not lightly. knowledge that alcohol should be avoided as a death-sentence and degenerative poison is more powerful than feeling that you've "done wrong" by choosing to consume it, and confess to reclaim your morality. which is why confessors ALWAYS COME BACK, because morality is weak, weaker than real health and a real heart beat which is threatened by poisons like alcohol.

tell me what you feel when you're puking your guts out: "i regret this awful choice" -- not because you think it was "a mistake" but because you fear for your mortality and the end of your life. mortality > morality. confessors always come back. life itself is more powerful than morality (the feeling of not making mistakes and doing the right thing and having confessed for them to feel clean)

so, i disagree, it's not "extremely powerful", confession is proven a failure as confessors always come back, it has no end. people need to value their life, their pulse, not the imaginary version of their self, their "Good" self. this is more powerful to change one's actions: feeling their mortality and loving and valuing their real life

They're great, Godcast is a little bit lower sound quality but definitely worth listening to.

Not a bad idea, I used to do lots of sketching and enjoy art.

Testosterone can help to solve most of your problems!

there are worse poisons than alcohol, and the body will die anyways. What does it gain you to value your heartbeat if you're dying of cancer next week?

Ultimately it's not about a mere system of morals, it's about participation in the life God. That is, a spiritual transformation.

Men will always need confession. Hopefully, the nature of your failings changes. Instead of always failing at something easy to stumble into, ie watching porn, you've refined yourself so that you search out spiritual imperfections- you were prideful, or cowardly in confronting your faults. etc.

It's enough to start for easy and physical reasons though. Starting to want to improve yourself because you fear mortality is a great reason to start walking the long path. Nothing wrong with that at all.

Obviously within reason. You can't go out and molest kids for 30 years, shake it off, and be just fine.
I'm giving OP the benefit of the doubt and assuming he's just committed run of the mill degeneracy and not plumbed the absolute depths of human depravity for years on end. If he has done that no amount of advice from me is going to save him so no harm done in me at least trying.

Unfortunately it's about 4-5 times a week for me. Usually pretty tame. But once a week I wake up hungover asking myself "why the fuck are you doing this to yourself" and I understand the exhaustion part. Anyway well done and thanks
Yeah I suppose that's probably the only reason I do drink. I like who I am better with a few drinks than not. Thanks for the input
Fuck, if one month a small goal... I'm lucky to go 3 days
You're very right. It adds up. Especially at the pubs. Good for you for never having a problem, and thanks.

Improve yourself so we can save our people. Never forget it

I started bulking for the first time 2 days ago. I normally eat far too little and do too much cardio to actually increase my muscle mass. Been lifting 3x a week for a year now.

I have been told multiple times that I am way stronger than people thought I would be, but I do not care about being strong if I do not look strong as well.

Will see how it all turns out 3 months from now. Hopefully I can get some mass.

I talked with another human being IRL for a minute.

Great success.

>when your stepdad walks in, tells you how much he hates you, and leaves
>threatens to leave your mom because he's so sick of you

Honestly, I stopped giving a shit about him, but the fact he said he'd leave my mom is really grinding my gears. What do I do, /sig/?

what did you do?

Please tell me how you did It, I have been trying but I just stay awake un bed for hours without actually falling asleep its literally fucking my Life at this point

'Im about to come up with a way to promote third way politics in my country without having to refer fascism or national socialism. I'm really getting closer to gather enough people to pay for the actual minimum required wage to start a political party and we will be the very fisrt and real central radical party in our country. I want people to have a real representation against capitalism at the same time they understand the dangers of communism. Thanks Sup Forums you guys are part of this tiny revolution taking place.

Exercio y buena dieta, deja de comer cagada y azucar
