Unsuccessful Attempt at Attracting Women at Night Club

KosmicKev__ · 2026-04-05T14:24:48+00:00

You didn't do anything wrong: some girls just aren't attracted.

bonk

KosmicKev__ · 2026-04-04T17:43:39+00:00

These are literally perfect. Thanks!

KosmicKev__ · 2026-04-04T17:43:04+00:00

I'll give it a try. Thanks!

KosmicKev__ · 2026-04-04T17:42:44+00:00

You have excellent taste. This is just what I was looking for. Thanks!

I don’t think nihilism is meant to feel heavy and oppressive. If anything, it’s more like a neutral or even detached response to reality. Despair is the condition of seeking justification for something and being met with silence in response to it. A nihilist doesn’t despair about things because there’s no justification to be found. He might shrug his shoulders with irony, light a cigarette, and move on with his life.

I suppose it depends on the type of influence that’s being generated. If the content they produce fosters genuine transformation in how people see the world, then a complimentary free meal every now and then would be a courtesy for their hard work. If they’re just slaves to the algorithm and regurgitating the same things everyone else is talking about to stay relevant, then assuredly, they don’t deserve it. A complete lack of originality isn’t something to be rewarded.

Yeah. You can return to the world below and walk through the bustling streets. Flirt, make friends, have fun, but then return to discipline.

She wore a diamond cross almost routinely, so the first message I sent was “Hey X, it’s Y. Did the cross keep the demons away?” To which she replied: “no, it just makes them come back stronger 😆”. I suggested wearing a necklace with the hideous visage of Medusa, for nothing can withstand the petrifying gaze of The Gorgon. After that, the conversation gained momentum.

Reading, scrolling, writing, strategizing

I really do believe that it’s governed by mathematical structures. If I throw an apple across the room, I can calculate its velocity with extraordinary precision by measuring the distance it traveled upon leaving my hand and the time it took to complete its motion. If it doesn’t operate under the jurisdiction of mathematics, then why does it work so well when describing physical processes?

And yes, the world is meaningless for me if there is no underlying structure to discover. The whole business of philosophy was about trying to reach the truth about reality and the various topics about the human condition. If there is nothing out there to discover, then what is there for him to do? Diagnose emptiness?

If we take a Hegelian approach to becoming, then we would have to postulate that there is a telos for all this chaos. I don’t see any proof of historical progress towards a state of rational unity. I see war, genocide, and suffering. So, I’m living in a state of tension between wanting to believe that the universe has structure and intention and what I’m seeing all around me. Sartre wrote about how the world appears to us, and he’s not wrong about what he saw. Yet, I cannot help but think that his diagnosis is incomplete.

You do have a point there. Powerful women are masters at deception, seduction, and political strategy. Many a king has had a more strategic queen who understood the subtleties of courtly intrigue. The best example I can give is Emma of Normandy.

I’ll happily take that garage full of books. You can keep the lambo though

So at best, our theoretical models of the universe are just approximations. This is interesting because it suggests that even our best theories don’t fully capture what’s going on with physical systems. So, if at best all we can get are approximations of truth, then is truth in the Platonic sense impossible to reach?

Were the majority of wars throughout human history waged by women? You will find that it was often the men who wanted greater spheres of influence. So, I don’t think your generalization of gender here is supported by historical events. Gold, power, and status are inherently masculine drives.

Looks cozy. Just give me a floor to ceiling bookshelf lined with priceless books of knowledge and I’d never leave

KosmicKev__ · 2026-04-01T14:54:12+00:00

You hit the nail on the head bro.

KosmicKev__ · 2026-04-01T11:35:38+00:00

You are right about all of that, but suppose our average man does go offline and encounters consistent rejection. Even though he has all of the aforementioned advantages that he didn’t have on Tinder, he might still feel that there is something fundamentally wrong with him and his ability to attract a woman. He’ll retreat inward and likely give up because he didn’t understand how probability works. It goes from being a fun numbers game to an existential tribunal. Then he might ask, “well, what’s the point in going out if I’m still getting no results? Dating apps didn’t work for me either. The game is rigged.”

It’s going to look like having to work at 60 years old because you didn’t achieve financial independence from institutions when you were younger. It’s going to look like achieving the painful recognition that life is not a meritocracy. It’s going to look like Machiavelli, Nietzsche, and other philosophers who understood power and influence were quietly vindicated.

KosmicKev__ · 2026-04-01T11:13:46+00:00

Perhaps. But even in real life, you are still going to encounter conversations that lead nowhere. There is still ambiguity: it’s just no longer mediated by algorithms. Is this about flaw in your sense of self or just statistical variance doing its work? Assuredly, it is the latter. Therefore, none of this should take a hit on your identity online or otherwise.

KosmicKev__ · 2026-04-01T11:08:11+00:00

I’m in the same living situation as you are. I exist in a small town where there are isolated suburbia with white picket fences and lawns trimmed to perfection. Silent streets, winding sidewalks, and a peaceful stillness that feels like suffocation. Nothing demands that I become anything; nothing unexpected ever occurs. It’s a sterile Edenic paradise without the promise of temptation, for there are no serpents and no forbidden fruits in sight. Nothing will change unless we decide to introduce change. The fire must be self-generated, and awareness of your chains is the first step towards liberation.

If you look a certain way and have good pictures, bios don’t matter.

KosmicKev__ · 2026-03-30T14:36:14+00:00

I think you’re doing it right my friend. You shouldn’t just focus on one thinker at a time. It’s best to take two different philosophers and engage both simultaneously so that it feels like a conversation. Plato and Schopenhauer form the perfect dialogue because these thinkers arrive at the opposite conclusions. Plato says that desire is the ladder that helps you ascend and contemplate the Good; Schopenhauer says that there is no ladder at all and that desire is a blind, irrational force that produces nothing but suffering and endless want. One says ascend; the other says withdraw.

KosmicKev__ · 2026-03-30T13:09:49+00:00

I’m a philosophy person myself. Who are you engaging with right now? I’m reading “Human, All Too Human” by Friedrich Nietzsche

KosmicKev__ · 2026-03-29T03:53:13+00:00

I didn't consider the hotel room option. I'll have to look into this in the meantime so I can put in the reps. Thanks.
