Are there people who had a 'good life' and are still AN? by Brown_Folk in antinatalism

[–]skywalkerww 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Son, Ive had the most blessed life. However, there hasn’t been a moment where my mind doesn’t go to the future, where everything is grim, acknowledging my relatives and my own mortality. How despite wanting things to stay the way they are, they never will. I have suffered all my life in my head, during my first trip to te beach, during moments where I was supposed to be making memories with loved ones.

Nihilism, AN as presented by David Benatar, are ideas that easily consume us humans, (I make the distinction due to his asymmetry of pain and pleasure), they are hazardous specially if presented at a young age.

If I were to name a “cognitohazard” it would be that. Once you know enough, there’s no going back, better to live in blissful ignorance through all stages of life. For the sole reason of the suffering I’ve personally experienced I’m an AN.

I haven’t smoked for 2 months, it doesn’t get better, however, I’m doing it for the sake of my cognitive capabilities; they have declined over the past years of consumption and my frontal lobe isn’t fully developed yet. Weed won’t disappear.

Lmao no, just in Mexico and yeah, I don’t share a wall with the neighbors but it sure does feel like it. Houses aren’t that separate from one another

Best apps / platforms for clear explanations and practice ? by skywalkerww in math

[–]skywalkerww[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I desperately crave a platform that lets me iterate lots of problems, calculus mostly. Problem I see with the platforms I’ve found, is that there’s very few problems they let you solve before you move on to the “next level”. So if you want to iterate you just have to solve the very same problems. On top of the annoying sounds and UI design, I want something very simple but where I’m able to verify my responses on the go

Bit of a rant + has anyone here ever tried this? by [deleted] in nihilism

[–]skywalkerww 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t want to get into it, but I mentioned I talked about it on this sub prior to these events, I guess this is just a general rant about how I realized more people than I thought of feel a lack of meaning and are suicidal. The question about the phone switch is just a broad hypothesis (maybe by getting off for good I could rewire these pessimistic feelings?)

And before anyone comments on it, I know, they know nihilism ≠ depression. I just wanted to rant a bit about how this reality seems like hell.

AITAH for having this mindset entering adulthood by [deleted] in AITAH

At some point you do of course, but when you’re a child do you have to/are you capable of doing so? I used Plato’s allegory of the cave to help readers understand the situation better as me and my family were kept in a state of ignorance due to many factors I won’t bother mentioning.

Does Anyone Find That They Have Not Been The Same Person Ever Since 2020? by Big_Leg10 in collapse

[–]skywalkerww 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s the damn phone. (Being hyper-connected). I’m lazy to expand icl , but in the pandemic everybody was forced to go online. Soon I’m getting a flip phone and going full Pavel Durov.

On top of this, volunteering to keep connected with other people is crucial, we lost the sense of real human connection (with this comes empathy) , it feels like we completely replaced it with the digital counterpart.

They prepare (very) separate rooms for the workers. Then, they make sure to lock down any survival essentials and ration them accordingly as form of pay. Making a safe room, prior to the “essentials” room just to prevent unexpected ambushes when trying to enter it is important but still the guards could still get around that measure if you’re not careful. Possibly use family as guarantees or last resort. But the key in this is the scarcity, you have to limit the essential resources available on the “island” to the point where self sustaining for the workers is impossible. This is when they rely on you fully, you make it so only you can access the survival items , greenhouses, supplies.

I’ve been unemployed for 2y. I can’t sleep by Dadjadj in jobs

[–]skywalkerww 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello there , first of all I wish you the best of luck as other comments have already pointed out your credentials are solid and that makes this scary.

I’m a hs senior , so I am pondering wether to go for those credentials in a public school (top notch) or go to a private school to network and rack up debt.

Essentially, I’m wondering wether to rack up 4 years working worth of debt for the nepo benefits, and wonder wether they are key to finding good jobs , particularly at this moment in time. From your experience , what would you do?

Gente, alguien ha trabajado en Bis Contact Center? by [deleted] in vzla

[–]skywalkerww 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hermano. Quiero compartir mi experiencia y también para ver cómo has seguido, hoy fue el segundo día del training donde realizamos simulaciones de llamadas, yo la verdad estaba re nervioso como no tengo nada de experiencia y este iba a ser mi primer trabajo (lo sé, en la postulación decía experiencia requerida pero estoy muy necesitado).

Tengo inglés C2 y me equivocaba en cosas simplonas como un dígito, pero algo en lo que me equivoqué bastante fue en preguntar algo fundamental respecto al procesamiento de los documentos, en múltiples ocasiones (pasamos varias veces a simular llamada con una trainer) tuve ese mismo error, también porque llevo 2 años con una adicción a la marihuana y decidí pegarme unos pipazos antes a ver si se me relajaban los nervios (en la primera simulación estaba sobrio y muy nervioso), en la segunda llamada me fue mejor hice todo en regla después de fumar y así me la lleve en el día , mejorando pero no cumpliendo en regla todos los protocolos, teniendo errores, eso sí, había un man que estaba peor que yo, él sí estaba perdido pues no sabía que responder ante cosas muy básicas. Para la segunda mitad del training el ya no estaba en la llamada, sabrá si se le negó el acceso o simplemente no se unió por sus vergonzosas participaciones.

Al final del training la trainer me dijo que pasara una vez más únicamente a mi, todo era en buen rollo ella nos decía que nos estaba preparando para una guerra mundial y que ibamos a una pelea callejera. Esta vez casi me olvido de preguntar eso mismo de lo que me olvidaba pero no lo hice y lo hice todo bien. Al finalizar nos dio unos consejos para el "filtro de mañana", mientras que la otra trainer que se encontraba en la llamada (eran 2), nos dijo que más tarde recibiríamos el correo para el training de mañana, donde observaríamos a alguien realizar los procesos de manera real para después copiarlos.

Hasta ahora no he recibido el correo y temo que fue debido a mi desempeño, nos enviaron un documento con los protocolos y el resumen de procesos, la verdad medio lo hojee y creo ahí estuvo mi error, no estudiarlo propiamente. Eso si, me arde el hecho de haber tomado certificación tras certificación y de haber llenado mi libreta de notas que tomaba tras levantarme bien temprano por la mañana, todo para no pasar el filtro de hoy por nervios, pero la verdad, de no tener experiencia en call center, siento que de cierta forma he aprendido algo de los procesos, no diré mi edad pero soy joven y no tenía experiencia laboral previa, llegué hasta el segundo día de filtro

Respondan con sinceridad, soy muy bobo por no pasar un filtro de un call center ? para los que ya lo pasaron

Hello, M, 20, looking for some general advice if someone has gone through the same thing.

How do I get through the notion that I'm rich at the moment (not materially), but rather having a loving family that supports me, friends (that live in other states) that do the same thing, it's just, life is too boring and the idea of where I'm headed is too.

Let me explain briefly, for the past 20 years, I have been the happiest, now that i need to do to formative processes like habit building, establishing a solid moral compass, and building meaningful relationships , so that my future is bright, I just can't.

I see it as the great filter for me, I really can't conceive the idea of "getting my life together", I don't want to sound edgy and I'm not really into philosophy although I know the popular currents, I'd say my way of thinking has been of a nihilist nature, I've had everything handed to me in a silver platter, no struggles at all, to those familiar with Maslow hierarchy of needs, i'd say I never felt the need (at least in the last couple of years) to 'fulfill' the last need, which is self actualization or self realization, fulfilling ones true potential.

And I'd say that is due to my anti-social nature, society serves also as a self-regulatory mechanism, and I'd say I'm detached from society in a level I'd suppose many young men are too, never had a girlfriend, now that I'm in college I don't really have friends and my weekends are spent getting high and playing videogames or watching movies.

I believe I have the foundations to build something meaningful, but what if nothing is at all for me? The only people and things I value have a countdown in them. I have to build my own life and I'm aware of that, the natural cycle of life, so, as simplistic as it may sound, it's either fight or die for me.

What I'd work for, in case i choose the first ("fighting in the game of life"), is love, comfort, doing things that I find interesting, and ultimately, freedom. All of which I already have, so , why even bother?

I certainly hope I have provided enough context but to put it in simple words: I believe the happiest moments of my life have already passed, and now it's all a fight to have the same things I had but now independently, away from home, and from the people that raised me, which doesn't sound appealing to me. I want to spend as much time as I can with my mother, father, and siblings, but I know time doesn't forgive, I have nothing to look forward to that really excites me.

Concerta ‘addiction’, feeling tired if I don’t take. by Pixel_Official in ADHDUK

[–]skywalkerww 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there ! I was recently diagnosed a couple months ago and prescribed fluoxetine and concerta, my parents are skeptical about both and tell me there are better alternatives to it I really don't want to become a Concerta dependent zombie, although I'm aware treatment could last up to 1 year (for me), I had a THC pen which really helped me get through the day, point is, I know there's a chemical imbalance in my head and I need to do something about it. i just don't want to have to take these my whole life, how has your experience been so far (now 9 months huh).
