but the better you are at smoking weed the less likely you are to get so high you don't give a poo poo about anything

you'd have to suck at it really bad to have that low of a tolerance, basically.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

[Verse 1]
I’m so sick of (fill in the blank)
Accomplish more, accomplish nothing
If I were split in two I would just take my fists
So I could beat up the rest of me

[Chorus]
You have no right to be depressed
You haven’t tried hard enough to like it
Haven’t seen enough of this world yet
But it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
Well stop your whining, try again
No one wants to cause you pain
They’re just trying to let some air in
But you hold your breath, you hold your breath, you hold it
Hold my breath, I hold my breath, I hold it

[Verse 2]
I’ve known for a long time
I’m not getting what I want out of people
It took me a long time
To figure out I don’t know what I want
So you’ll ask "why?" and there will be no answer
Then you’ll ask for how long? and there will be no answer
Then you’ll ask "what can I do?" and there’ll be no answer
And eventually you will shut up

[Chorus]
You have no right to be depressed
You haven’t tried hard enough to like it
Haven’t seen enough of this world yet
But it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
Well stop your whining, try again
No one wants to cause you pain
They’re just trying to let some air in
But you hold your breath, you hold your breath, you hold it
Hold my breath, I hold my breath, I hold it

[Bridge]
I get signs
From the cops
Saying “stay the gently caress down”
I get signs
From the audience
Saying “stay the gently caress down”
I get signs
From God
Saying “stay the gently caress down”

[Outro]
I’ve got a right to be depressed
I've given every inch I had to fight it
I have seen too much of this world, yes
And it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts
And I will never see the light
That I’ve seen shining in your eyes
You just want to see me naked
So I'll hold my breath, I hold my breath, I hold it
Hold my breath, I hold my breath, I hold my breath, I hold my breath
I hold my breath, I hold my breath, I hold my breath

Love might be a product of the reactions of a powerful chemical cocktail inside the the lightning-meat that comprises your brain, but the same can be said for all that you experience. Just because we know the mechanism, and the fact that it is a material and fleeting one, doesn't make our experiences any less profound or transcendent. Coming out on the other side of a nihilistic funk can really make you feel better.

Like, embrace the darkness, but use that as a starting point, not the terminus of your journey, you mopey fucks.

Agreed.

Also, maybe bother actually reading and interpretting some of Nietzsche's writings before you jump aboard the bandwagon for a philosophy you have a meager or faulty understanding of.

why bother? what's the point?

we're all incredibly insignificant. the most important and memorable event of your life is absolutely meaningless

life itself is meaningless

you can make up a purpose, and find your little joys in life or whatever, but there's really no reason to, since none of it will ever matter

I thought nihilism wasn't even a philosophy, but Nietzsche giving name to a mindset that he thought was making Christian man weak? Tbh the idea that someone has to read philosophy or even know of it to be nihilistic is pretty weird. My first expressions of a nihilistic mindset popped up real young for me, well before I heard of Nietzsche or knew what philosophy was. Then again I was also diagnosed with clinical depression at like 12.

Nihilism is not just being depressed though. Anyway a lot of philosophical things like that seem obvious to us once they are said, esp if they have some truth to them, but I doubt you'd be able to come up with it on your own independently.

The concept of nihilism as a philosophy is kind of funny. A bunch of people who think life is meaningless, but try to impress upon others the fact they think life is meaningless. If you've truly accepted that fact, I don't see why you'd dwell on it much at all.

OP is depressed and so am I, but nihilism is a net positive in my experience. I don't have any issue with the universe ultimately being nothing. If anything it makes me realize how insignificant the unhappiness I feel is, and that you either die or move forward through life. Op will probably die soon.

yeah a lot of people in this thread can't seem to separate nihilism from depression


if nihilism is something that makes you feel liberated and is a positive emotion for you, that's great for you, i guess, though your happiness is insignificant and pointless

it's really not worth feeling either way about

and that's okay too

just do or feel whatever

because nothing matters
