>So what is lizanon´s take on life?
Praise Lain, Breathe Lain, and Love Lain.

What's atavism as a philosophy?
Extinctionism but there's no point unless you can do it all in one go, so hedonism.

>>4616
Oh a fellow Lainist,very nice

>Lizard Philosophy

I figure most lizards would be hedonists, with our tendency to lay in the sun and do nothing for hours on end. And by laying in the sun I mean playing video games in a darkened basement.

>I figure most lizards would be hedonists
it doesn´t have to be like that tho i genuinely think that stoicism or epicuranism is perfectly compatible with the ascetic neet lifestyle

there is a difference between warm-blood tier indulging into drugs hypersexualization and other meaningless degeneracy and acknowledging the fact that the world is fucked and deciding to simply not fall with it

>>4617
by atavism i meant adopting a clasical worldview (Stoicism, Epicuranism, Roman metaphisics)

>>4621
>stoicism

I try to avoid pain and hardship whenever possible but to each their own I guess.

My philosophy is that everyone should be killed

My philosophy is whatever particular style of moral objectivism The Question, Mr. A, and Rorschach are. I'd call it "violently objective" but I'm sure there's a better term. I don't think that it's normal moral objectivism because I doubt Ayn Rand would have become a vigilante if she could.
I'm not well read on philosophy though, so feel free to call me a dumb fuck.

Live and let live.
Don't hate.
Don't focus on things you don't like or make you feel uncomfortable.

These are pretty much the 3 dogmas I follow. I did the exact opposite once upon a time and I was mentally miserable.

>Live and let live.
The actions of others do interfere with personal environment and opinions though. Should this be ignored?
>Don't hate.
What is hate and why would it be detrimental?
>Don't focus on things you don't like or make you feel uncomfortable.
Kinda hard when the things that are done are incredibly on your face.

I didn't specify it but the rule of your freedom ends where mine begins still hold.

>What is hate and why would it be detrimental?

What goes around comes around.

>Kinda hard when the things that are done are incredibly on your face.
Like? This was more referred to spending all day on negative things that makes you feel like shit.

This three principles is what I derived from my experience with life. They work for me but might not work for you so don't take it personal if what I'm saying sound bullshit.

Apples and oranges I guess.

If I'm so smart and self aware then why I go full retard when something unexpected happens or fall to negative thought loop over some meaningless things.
Maybe in reality I am silly and think otherwise just to cope with everything that I can't handle

Depends on why you'd think you're smart.
Most people who are completely and utterly competent and amazing in a certain field are retarded in many others.
I'm biased but I see three types of main intelligence, that you gain through an interest or habit (art, music, programming, etc) this is all gained through habitual training/repetitive action. Usually the highest praised although it's main hurdle to overcome would be dedication.
Then social intelligence, this is attained through being attractive/being socialized while young, this is mainly manipulation which becomes easier the more attractive you are (stacks with the above type too) and having been socialized you become well learned with social norms/what people want to hear.
Then lastly realism, which is mainly in the realm of "pessimism"
this doesn't take dedication as much as just an open and empathetic mind. This is the least difficult as it's not as tedious as pushing a stone up a hill (until you hit that wall), but it's best to avoid it if you're wanting to be socially intelligent unless you're say Charles manson.
Anyway anon a difference of an iq of 100 and 140 isn't much different in the grand scheme of things, your still trapped in a system with a median iq of 80, many people will call you dumb for just sitting with your problems but if you knew they were that easy to fix you wouldn't keep yourself from expending the energy to do so.
sorry for rant
nothing wrong with being silly in a clown world.

Sounds like you get flustered easily. You're not dumb but people who observe your behavior will definitely assume you are. I have the exact same problem.

I was interrupted halfway through Plato's Republic and have not yet gotten back to it. However, in the meanwhile I started reading Max Stirner, and I must admit that I find egoism very appealing. If you ask people what is good you will get many answers, but if you ask them why it is good I only get platitudes and circular logic. As an individual the only things that I have to base my conclusions on are my perceptions and my thoughts. I am not sure whether there is an animating force behind consciousness or if I and by logical extension everyone else are just complex biological machines. I suppose we'll either find that out when we're dead or never at all.
