here's the thing: everyone complains about late capitalism and how alienated and isolated we all are. everyone acknowledges this, and reassures each other of this, alone.

you need to get out of yourself, and your head, and your small bubble of one, and you need to go see old friends, or former friends, or people in your social circle who are just meh, or your annoying roommates, or your co-workers, or your former co-workers, or your lame family members, or your lame and bigoted family members, or strangers at a bar, or whomever, and party. meeting people is praxis, strengthening relationships is praxis, making yourself seen and vulnerable to another is praxis. please, guys, go out.

this, here, now, is a facsimile, mediated through a thousand screens. go kiss, go get kissed, go reject a kiss, go be denied a kiss. go out.

    And how many people in the following days thought up strange hypotheticals. "Well what if I'm wheelchair bound and I live on the first floor and the people that help me move are on vacation and this is the only time I'm actually staying indoors?".

    There was even a minor follow-up session where people argued the logout emoji was harmful lol

    in a semi-ironic/post-ironic/non-ironic way, capital does not want leftists touching grass or kissing. breaking down the walls that capitalism builds around and between us is anticapitalist.

    or in the words of street sects, a band i like but that also scares me:

    "There’s always at least one piece of shit who wants nothing more than to see you fail; Death is a release from all their resentment, but life is a wire around their throat"

    Be the wire around capital's throat capybara-theorist

    here's the praxis: everyone complains about late praxis and how praxised and isopraxised we all are. everyone ackpraxisdges this, and reapraxisses each other of this, in solo praxis.

    Sorry, my neurosis has convinced me that I am a burden on everyone around me and that I actively make their day worse when we see each other. I'm not going to ruin someone else's evening by forcing them to deal with me.

    If you acknowledge that it's caused by a neurosis, then obviously you can't just shrug it off and probably shouldn't meet with old friends right this second, but it seems like that means the answer is still "working towards being able to talk to people" by whatever means are appropriate to your situation (therapy, medication, making friends online, etc.)

    here's the thing: everyone complains about late bloomers and how alienated and sexless we all are. everyone acknowledges this, and reassures each other of this, alone.

    you need to suck yourself, get head, and remove a rib (just one), and you need to go see old friends, or former friends, or people in your social circle who are just meh, or your annoying roommates, or your co-workers, or your former co-workers, or your lame family members, or your lame and bigoted family members, or strangers at a bar, or whomever, and succ and fuck like youre in Tijuana in the end times. Sucking people is praxis, strengthening your dick with jelqing is praxis, making yourself seen and vulnerable to arrest for public nudity is praxis. please, guys, suck off.

    this, here, now, is a facsimile, mediated through a thousand screens. go blow, go get blown, never reject a blowie, go be denied a blow joe. get off.

    When I drink i usually get really social and talk to strangers. Generally always positive experiences but the following day I'm always overcome by an extreme sense of shame that stops me from doing it again. Idk why

    Don't just go out, make comrades and do planned social events with them! A socialist org of 3 people that just watches lefty movies and drinks beer is still good!
