Life Advice

Please stop telling yourself “it will all change tomorrow” because it won’t and you know it…

You’re not just going to wake up as a productive supersoldier.

You have to start implementing seemingly small changes today, and building on them every day or every week.

Our bodies and minds don’t like dramatic change of any kind, so you need to take small steps in the right direction.

Get up 15 minutes earlier than usual, not 3 hours.

Confessions

What in the Fuck Did I Just Read?!?

My wife is a parasite and I feel stuck

My wife (37f) and I (38m) and I have been married for 11 years, together for a few years before that, and have known each-other for over 20 years. We met online when she was 16 and still in high school, and I was 17 and just starting college. For the sake of this rant we’ll call her Connie.

Connie and I lived several states away and, at first, there was some attraction on her part – but I just wanted to stay friends. Over several years we grew closer and decided to have a long distance relationship. I was always awkward with girls in high school and it continued into adulthood. With Connie things just felt natural. After a couple years, when we were talking about meeting in person, she destroyed me. She let me know that she had been having multiple other online relationships and one of these men came to meet her and she wanted to be with him.

The How And Why Of Heroin Addiction

Let me explain it to you, I’ve been an opiate addict for a long time and tried many drugs.

Drugs that are ‘uppers’ have the most ‘obvious’ euphoria.

For example if you take adderall/coke/meth/speed/MDMA you will get this shining bright euphoria, self confidence, energy, and other drug-specific feelings (for meth like you are king or for MDMA like you love everyone).

However, you owe these drugs back what they delivered to you.

Confession of the Day

I’ve been raving for 8 days straight, and not the Disneyland version of raving you get at Mirage and E-Zoo. I’m talking about REAL shit-your-pants-in -the- k-hole raving, European fucking psytrance raving at Ozora festival in Hungary. I’ve been spending my days and nights getting blasted by 300 BPM industrial techno that sounds like it was produced in a meth lab by Serbian anarchists, partying with hackers and cyber alcemists who only take a break from raving to launch DDoS attacks against the central bank of a NATO member state, and everyone looks like they’re out of a Matrix Borat crossover universe. I’m holding my fucking ground, surviving on Mycroboost functional mushroom products, and a selection of novel molecules manufactured in a Soviet-era bunker. I can’t take your Justin Bieber Tomorrowland shit seriously anymore. No more mainstream EDM, just fucking psytrance festivals from now on.

What Should You Do If You Gets Stabbed In The Throat

What Should You Do If You Gets Stabbed In The Throat

I assume you mean in one of the arteries or veins, since other places in the throat wouldn’t cause the situation you’re asking about.

Not that it matters, because the first aid is the same. Pressure, pressure, pressure. First and always, apply pressure to slow bleeding.

If it doesn’t hurt like a motherfucker, you aren’t using enough pressure. Seriously.

A Man Of Principles

man of principles

The first and most important rule of life, is to have some rules and principles by which you operate from and live by.

Your success, happiness and level of fulfillment will be dictated to you by the rules you have for yourself and the standard you set and accept for yourself.

If you want to thrive, if you want to blossom into the most beautiful and magnificent and powerful version of yourself then you need to develop your very own “modus operandi” – the way in which you operate, conduct yourself and perform.
