I strongly dislike the German cities layout. I don’t like the weird medieval grids and the 1950s reconstruction era soulless cheap buildings that mostly populate those grids. The only positive thing is the quantity of urban trees, reminiscent of the great forests of Germania.

>>21425The horseshoe theory is easily explained. Baby been borned in liberal (capitalist) democracies. Both far right and far left hate liberal (capitalist) democracy for differnet reasons and want to establish something else. Lib cucks think what they have and do is right and they don't want this changed in a fundamental way, thus both right and leftwing extremism appears as if it is the same to these people (both would do away with a trusted lawful state is the fear btw). Other than that it allows to opportunistically exploit left and right practices and viewpoints to support the reign of the political system, simply depends on what is necessary at the moment. Punish something harder or help the poor a bit?
It made me think of this quote. I had to google the text. Is the horse shoe apologist this person?
>Democratic man lives only for the pure present, transient desire is his only law Today he regales himself with a four course dinner and vintage wine, tomorrow he is all about Buddha, ascetic fasting, streams of crystal-clear water, and sustainable development. Monday he tries to get back in shape by pedalling for hours on a stationary bicycle; Tuesday he sleeps all day, then smokes and gorges again in the evening. Wednesday he declares that he is going to read some philosophy, but prefers doing nothing in the end. At Thursdays dinner party he crackles with zeal for politics, fumes indignantly at the next persons opinion, and heatedly denounces the society of con-sumption and spectacle. That evening he goes to see a Ridley Scott blockbuster about medieval warriors. Back home, he falls to sleep and dreams of liberating oppressed peoples by force of arms. Next morning he goes to work, feeling distinctly seedy, and tries without success to seduce the secretary from the office next door. He's been turning things over and has made up his mind to get into real estate and go for the big money. But now the weekend has arrived, and this economic crisis isn't going away, so next week will be soon enough for all that. There you have a life, or lifestyle, or lifeworld, or whatever you want to call it: no order, no ideas, but nothing too disagreeable
or distressing either. It is as free as it is unsignifying, and insignificance isn't too high a price to pay for freedom.

That said the public/private option solely depends on the political ruling direction and is exchangable. Like all good citizens they pay a lot of attention to morality and moral critique. It's a tireless exercise but from within the wheels it looks like something important depending on who you are.
I call it the donut theory (of political spectra)

Situation in the world changes, because of new technologies, developments in international politics and so on. So policies shouldn't be fixed either.
And even in the times of stability. Some left wing policies are good, some aren't. Why should you take them all or reject all? Having state subsidized public transport is a good idea, while having fully planned economy with state-run cafes isn't.
This is such an obvious thing, why does it even need explaining. Really, for such a clueless person you act waaaay too smug. Typical horseshoe theory hater, who needs to touch some grass.

A person who likes the horse shoe theory would be happy about this, though. While it collides with their personal interest, it shows that the state runs very well, unlike in some corrupted shitholes

Christmas passed rather uneventfully I guess. Spent most of the day helping out and listening to music.
Also played some more video games.
I got the book I asked for, some new winter socks, some gloves, a pendrive, bedsheets and also most interestingly, a teaplant.
It’s in a tiny pot. On one hand, I am a bit angry, because my father yet again thought that “gifting responsibility” is a good idea and he thinks that finding someone a new hobby is also a good gift, but I am also feeling a sort of animistic humility towards the plant and I don’t want it to think that I am mad at it and whither away in sadness. Really, the more I think about it, the more I want to cry.
Though looking it up, it just needs ideal soil for it and a slightly shady place. It can survive the winters. My father did not haphazardly set me up for failure by the looks. But otherwise it is an evergreen plant.
My plan is to just put it in a big pot with the special dirt and then water it as needed. Will probably take years until it reaches the height where I can harvest leaves for it, and the quality will probably be dubious at best.
But considering I sometimes thought about buying an olive tree, maybe the teaplant is not the worst thing that could have happened to me. It’s next to me on the desk as I’m writing this. I think it has a bright future ahead of it.

Well, I guess today was fine. Went for a run and it was good.
Helped with some baking and also just kept eating trash in general.
We didn't end up playing boardgames and I kinda feel bad because my mother said it's "my fault" (it is) but I just didn't feel like I have the strength in me to wear a mask that tight for a few hours where we have to play a teams-based game which we do not know the rules of. It just sounds like torture.
I'd like to cope by thinking my father would not have liked to play either. And my sister was busy gaming anyway.
Christ of the family basically.
Thought more about the teaplant, I gave it a fancy Chinese name from a quote of the Hanfeizi, but I've just been referring to it as its shortened form, "Gaoshan 高山". Still on my table. Looked up the type of soil it needs, should be easy to get. Yeah, I'm gonna do this and it'll turn out good.

Christmas was a rather sad affair for Ernst. It's like witnessing a decaying institution. Most are old and sick, with death already sneaking up, and the few younger people are struggling for various reasons, mostly mental things, hopeless education/employment situation or drug addiction. Worst thing is that it's already obvious that things will only be getting worse in the future. People will die, or will need to go into a nursing home at some point. And then there's Ernst, who's doing well for himself, but has not much hope of having a family of his own, so it's just existing and waiting to get old. There's simply not much to look forward to, it feels more like administrating a downward spiral.

My brother is a rather unpleasant person.

He foes that all the time to almost everyone, he just loves putting people down. Fucking little pissant.
My sister made an awesome vegan dinner, bless her heart. My mother tries to compensate for not giving a fuck about me when I was a kid by knitting scarves and hats to keep me warm. Yeah, it's a little late now, trying to make me feel cared for.
Luckily, I don't have friends anymore, so I did not have to drink or do coke, they are all married with children, anyway. Keiner hat mehr Bock auf kiffen, saufen, feiern, so ist es hier im Block tagein, tagaus, halt mir zwei Finger an den Kopf und mach bang, bang, bang, bang.

I'm surprised that it just works.
I had lunch and then I finished the first season of Apothecary Diaries on discord with friends. It was incredibly moving and I ended up shedding a few tears.
After that I went over to the old place to try and find a CD player I remembered having. I spent like an hour and a half just rummaging through stuff in an environment reminiscent of the exclusion zone, getting hit by intermittent bouts of nostalgia and disgust over the past.
I did not find what I was looking for. I found some papyrus bookmarks and my old Playstation, which I evacuated. It still works if I recall correctly but has no cables or controllers or games. Best bet would probably be to just sell it.
Anyway, I think this was a fun "adventure". Though I think most people would not call this one.

I just cast a wide net with a bracket from 20-40 in a big city, though I get more older women which I guess is because of the womens age settings? Since I don't look my age in the street I usually get lols from younger women.
The problem is that most of these profiles really don't sound interesting to me. It strikes me as very normie. At least she should be visibly pop culture and "alternative"

No wonder you guys are like that.
Or are you using dating apps because you are like that?

No.21590
>>21589Ernst would also like to have a GF, but he doesn't want to deal with social stuff, like visiting her parents and playing board games on Saturday evening with other couples. He only wants it for homely things like cooking together, cuddling and
SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEGS, but otherwise no further impairment on his life.
Basically Ernst wants a GF but also doesn't.
No.21591
>>21590There are prostitutes that give you the "girlfriend experience". Sounds like the thing you want.
No.21592
>>21591That's for ultimate losers and pretty disgusting.
Imagine kissing a prostitute, while she hates you and just wants to go back to her pimp as quickly as possible, to give him your money, suck his dick and have him shit in her whore-mouth, which you are kissing.
No.21593
>>21591Absolutely not. The mere thought of the girl not really wanting it totally ruins it for me, no chance I'd ever touch a prostitute, no matter how well she delivers the GF experience. It's a personal thing though, might work well for others, who don't share that sentiment.
No.21594
>>21593Understandable. I wouldn't want to sex a whore or roleplay having a relationship with one either, but there's a reason why it's such a successful industry. Enough people don't mind.>she hates you and just wants to go back to her pimp as quickly as possible, to give him your money, suck his dick and have him shit in her whore-mouth
No.21595
>>21593That's your problem. You're a people pleaser, a sub-beta homo who worries about what women want. Women can smell that, and they are disgusted by your weakness.
If you can't even assert yourself towards women, how can you ever hope to make it in the world of men? By bending over and be a gay little prison bitch? Did you make this whiny little homo-post so I would fuck your pink little boy pussy until it twitches?
Women's feminist bullshit is just a collective shit-test. Don't believe it. Women always flock to the strongest men.
Read this excerpt from a feminist newspaper.
https://www.emma.de/artikel/ich-war-prostituierte-die-wahrheit-kannst-du-dir-nicht-leisten-266192Woman cries that no man can fuck her like her pimp did, and no one will ever be able to measure up to him.
To a woman, no man can ever measure up to the man who dominates and abuses her. He positions himself far above the woman and other men, and women want men they can look up to, not gay little touchy-feely prison-bitches who talk about their gay little fee-fees for hours on end.
If you cannot accept that, there's always a resolution nearby where you can get your pink little boy-pussy filled with cum.
Now say thank you to the nice uncle who explained the world to you, like a good little boy. (Or is it girl? Honestly, I can't tell.)

No.21600
>>21594Yeah, a lot of people don't seem to mind. Fun fact: The hottest thing about a girl in my opinion is when she shows affection towards me. Not saying looks aren't important, but I would be way more interested in a decent looking girl who likes me than in a 10/10 who I've just met. Don't really know why, it always worked that way for me.
>>21595Ok cool.
No.21601
>>21600it's not that the Johns don't mind.
There are sadists who want the prostitute to be disgusted.
There are idiots who fool themselves into thinking that the prostitute likes them, at least a little. Even if they just paid for her to pretend she likes them.

I feel very old using the apps. I thought I would comment one of these question prompts
she beats me in being chronically late but apparently, I just opened the overall chat after matching with "god help me", kek. Well, she wrote back.
>>21590You need to find somebody that also hates visiting parents and whose personal hell is boardgame night with two other couples.
I can understand the sentiment, though. While I don't mind visiting parents if they are ok
I have done so in the past the imagination of a couple's night makes me uncomfortable. I'm not anti-social though

>>21590> visiting her parentsYes, that sucks. Moreover, her dad and sister seem to be just as unenthusiastic as I am. It's her mum who is instigator of such meetings but she also doesn't have a good time and is fairly anxious.
I'll probably limit such events to 1-2 times a year. Over that limit gf can just see them without me if she wants to.
Roughly the same situation with my relatives. They often come to the city (unlike her family always sitting in suburbs) so it doesn't take a whole day to meet with them. But you can't satisfy mom with meetings in restaurants, she wants you to come to her place. We'll visit my parents during winter holidays, and I agreed to that solely because my sister with her husband will come there from another city: it's a rare opportunity, and also I want to consult with her about organizing marriage, choosing rings and so on.
> playing board games on Saturday evening with other couplesThings like that happened once on her initiative and couple of times on my initiative. Usually we spend time with each other besides paying tribute to relatives.

NYE was fine. Met some pals, no alcohol, good food, only outside in the cold for the fireworks, and back home fairly early. Couldn't ask for more. Well, I could ask for big tiddy GF and three months vacation, but that seem to be unreasonable expectations.

But today, there are moments of blue sky and sunshine and real shadows, which feel like a sight last seen long ago. The sun doesn't shine on my windows because other buildings, but from my windows I am able to see places where it does, when it does.
