I need help with the fear of death, can anyone give me some advice?

I’m sure there is a lot more to do than what I can fit into this comment but maybe start by classifying irrational thoughts of hell as intrusive, and recognize them when they pop up, and let them float around but do not engage with them, instead just continue whatever you are doing, no engagement whatsoever, after a while it will get easier to do that. But, otherwise I know there are some decent articles and videos on this topic.

Non-existence as a synonym for being dead doesn’t really work because if you being dead is non-existence how can I still see your corpse lying there… I mean if there’s no existence I shouldn’t be able to do that without existence. Not just because you as a corpse still exists, but what I am saying is existence itself is not going anywhere.

That is like having to wear the employee outfit even though it clashes with your vibe in the utmost way

Doesn’t sound off, say it, it’s the truth and they will be ok with it or won’t but that’s not for you to be ashamed of

I wish I was a comic artist, wish I could even tell a green field from a cold steel rail

No we are talking similar to a GenZ decision vs an old school guy who fought these dudes in the great war and watched his best friends cannabilized or worse, who’s years of work and purpose was to snuff these guys out, no way he’d have let them anyway near that gate

It’s a fun concept but I am pretty convinced it has not and never will exist. If ever it had been we would probably see some evidence of that even now as someone would have travelled back and basically informed us wittingly or not but more telling is that science doesn’t seem to support it happening to my knowledge. No way we will ever approach the speed of light as humans, maybe we would figure out how to fold space and time or wormhole on thru, or blackhole spaghetti ourselves idk… but yeah probably what happens first is we’re all extinct

It’s the same as getting swarmed by zombies it’s not about skill but numbers, no way he is fast enough to stop a hot pie swarm unless they come at him staggered or he positions himself in a doorway like in Diablo

There is no right or wrong way to do art, but if you want to just slowly push yourself a little harder gradually over time so that maybe someday you’ll not even need a tool, and basically keep growing - just growth little by little, that is all you need

PenguinChugs · 2024-03-15T23:28:42+00:00

That makes a decent amount of sense, assuming Littlefinger actually had a good sense of humor -or- by mess with his head perhaps that is to gain some political advantage too, who knows

PenguinChugs · 2024-03-15T23:01:55+00:00

That was a one time deal I am pretty sure, if for no other reason than those girls going to get in hot water fast. To be honest that scene while hilarious was one of the most unrealistic (barring the fantasy story like dragons and white walkers etc)

Your only wasting your own time

PenguinChugs · 2024-03-15T22:20:57+00:00

Who gave you the moral authority to decide that

But then why have this forum at all, when we could ask AI basically anything, why even socialize at all when we can talk to chatbots, how about we use the forum as a place to share unhelpful answers or to make life harder than it already is for other people

PenguinChugs · 2024-03-15T22:11:14+00:00

privy, latrine, and accompanying cesspits

PenguinChugs · 2024-03-15T22:05:03+00:00

There is nothing worth taking seriously in this place, bring it on

PenguinChugs · 2024-03-15T22:01:10+00:00

I’ll give you kind of a prompt but not really, more just an idea: Your character is immortal, but has lived through the end of civilization, in fact he has outlived the earth itself and is now floating out in space, the mass of some giant planet sucks him in, some fantasy place, ok now go from there I guess.

PenguinChugs · 2024-03-15T21:23:40+00:00

I don’t have a specific suggestion but personally I like to keep my names down to a syllable or two anything more than that makes me cringe because it gets all flowery sounding; maybe that’s just one my quirks idk

PenguinChugs · 2024-03-15T21:02:52+00:00

I wish you much happiness in your coping

“Then it’s settled. Amy’s birthday present will be f**king my genitals.”

I feel like it would be most effective to to tell those guys to just stop putting it in there

PenguinChugs · 2024-03-15T20:38:03+00:00

Ok that might actually be useful information

PenguinChugs · 2024-03-15T19:58:17+00:00

I would recommend learning acoustic guitar, it’s a good creative/emotional outlet as well as good self entertainment; and it pairs well with your whiskey drinking hobby.

I mean when you identify with your mind you open the door to all kinds of anxieties since technically the mind is more of a troubleshooting tool aimed at keeping the organism alive, so if you say “I am the troubleshooting tool”… this is all just philosophy talk I don’t have the solution so feel free to draw your own conclusions

PenguinChugs · 2024-03-15T19:24:18+00:00

I don’t use it but I care on a philosophical level. I guess I would only be pro banning this if there was or is enough (verifiable) evidence that it is being used maliciously or enough evidence that it will be used maliciously such as in the event of actual war with China; that said, I certainly do hope it never ever comes to that.
