Just out of curiosity why did you ask that and what is the response you wanted?
I wanted to see if that person was my friend. I know I will never get the response I want to be honest. It had been silent between us for a while especially because the only to people I actually talk to were the two kids from choir class ( still in high-school ) . I Mostly don't know a lot of people to consider them friends.It was one of my attempts at seeing the nature of human beings. I mean , I know everything about that person...From weaknesses to what they love and all their insecurities. I wonder what made them trust me with all this information especially because from what they answered ...they basically don't know anything. They don't even Know that I quit art and still think I still draw... I mean it is kind of pitiful the fact you can trust someone that much, I mean what if they turn on you (which I won't do because it gives me nothing whatsoever.)

It sounds like you want to be more than friends with this person and are angry they view you as an NPC in their life story.

Nah actually, It is the opposite. i want to avoid them , But want to know when I will be able to do so. So far I haven't seen them for a while...which Is quite good, as I have been planning to cut my relationships in high-school. Trust me , I dont want to be with them tbh.

from my essays on blog:

30 > 31/10/22, 23/58-ish

Prečo ubližujem („") sám sebe?: Chýba mi vzrušenie. Toto ennui... Ale prečo ma to stále drží, baví?: Pretože potom by som pravdepodobne musel robiť niečo zmysluplné, významné, hmatateľné - niečo, z čoho mám strach. - Prečo?: Pretože môžem urobiť chybu, možno to zničiť, stratí to v mojich očiach na význame a hodnote hneď, ako bude 99,99% hotových.(..)

Odkiaľ tento strach, myšlienky naň, prichádzajú? /Zlá cesta/: Nie je to tak, že si schválne bol divný, len aby si opovrhnutiahodne „nebol ako všetci ostatní"? Ale koho možno z toh(t)o viniť? Nechce toto väčšina ľudí? Snáď som opakoval po druhých. Alebo; to, čo som robil, sa nedalo nikam zaradiť; takže som bol neviditeľný. Nuž, dosiahol som opak: - S nikým som sa nebavil, nemal nič (s nimi; schválne) spoločné. - Je toto to, čo som z(a)mýšľal?

Snáď som si (dokonca) myslel, že divné ľudí priťahuje. No popravde, vlastne si už ani nepamätám čo, prečo a ako bol „môj cieľ." (Liberál, čo sa kamaráti s každým a nemá nepriateľov (nevie ako na to)... Ale vlastne nemá ani vlastnú hlavu, nápady (aj keď vlastne, nikoho vlastne nie sú vlastné...))

Lož. Nehysáč, keď s tým (glob. otepľ., k(r)apitalizmus, „FBI"...) nedokáže (? profit???) nikto nič spraviť. Len obviňujete tých, čo majú (ten) najmenší dopad, hádžete (pre)vinu... Odporné, otras(né), detinské, poburujúce, hlúpe...

- Ale chápem („" - nechcem) - idú do toho; a sú z toho prachy - no samozrejme. Zombie spoločnosť, čo žije z vlastnej (Západ) minulej slávy, pochopiteľne, nemá nič iné v rukáve; (nič iné) na výber. Chcel by som sa čudovať - nemám čomu - snáď to (ak; toto všetko; bolo takto vždy(cky)- v skutočnosti kultúra, alebo ako tento zeitgest, pre-hauntológiu nazvať - tak zo 20-30 rokov je kultúra, jej piliere, morálka - všetko je to mŕtve.

Vždy bolo. Nebudeme, nie sme jediní, kto to , cíti takto. Bolo to takto vždy - no nie?!

Či už kvitujete akejkoľvek ideológii, je jasné, že bez pevne stanovených východísk, medzí -cieľov- nie je možné, aby tento svet stále takto, týmto štýlom, fungoval neustále.

Buď-to priority, alebo chaos; rozpad, rozklad; bezcieľne, bezvýchodiskové čakanie na blažený koniec čohosi beztvarého...

/Never tým, čo hovoria v mene všetkých ~ nemožné, podozrivé...

- do it, preach what you do, but dont make truth out of lies. Dont jump because everyone else is too - ask first. Ask what is going on, why, how. If we went to question reality and self-imposed states of mind (concepts), life could be clearer and less confussing. Not saying there will be no problems, only that there will be only those that are more-or-less valid. When you ask, this chaos, sometimes beautiful, can be more bearable. When you know Why, you understand

what are they/m people fighting for or against. I call this no-ask world Zombie-one. You maybe heard about Vaporwave (outside of music genre), Hauntology, (Aenomoia) or Monument Mythos. Something like that, if not basically that. Are we afraid to question things from fear of losing them, them being stolen from us by some Bad actors, or that we will be labeled, marked as conspirators (let it be what it meant before, or even after shift of meaning)? At least *here*

(head), it seems so. But isnt it that without pain, rebels and struggle, doubts, we could value those things we have? Or, even save to say, start to think about those things, thoughts, and these questions of "Why" (is it *this way*), on alone!?! That all is valid, nice and based. What isnt tho is, playing with emotions. Our lowest denominators. No one is safe from them. When thinking about it, maybe how we react to stimuli, not how we see ouselves, is what we Are.

Us, "Me" (Just little idea *moment*). But what is opposite of that, is my guilt. Is there shame too? Why is it so? I wonder too. Maybe it is just erro in my head, no enough "grass touched" (doubt), or only that "no one needs me" (no job). Is wanting not to fight, for man, bad? Is it what makes me "sad"? Or just that everyone else wants to only to forgot themselves (for them, then, to had no need to wrote something *like this alone*). I tried to "consoome", but it is

no longer fun. It is just distraction, from reality, real problems. Solvable or not, pretended or made-up (baka brain!), it hurts the same... And I lie. I do things I hate in others. God, I'll hate them in myself too. But as I said, I am so afraid *of it*...

Life on subscription mode



Netflix, Internet (VPN?), taxes, rent...




You need job, or school, but what about experiences, where to find them, aren't we in cage we helped to build ourselves? Gatekeeping?!?!?




Are we raising something that destroys us, someone of *this (every)* country, who glorify **nacizm** that destroys us?

Neznášam, ako sa teraz ľudia zapredávajú rôznym značkám. Asi to tak ale bolo vždy.

Pretože prečo nie, treba udržovať Status Quo, Class, Posh.

Ľuďom je úplně v paži., či máš na sebe niečo značkové, lebo nakoniec klameš len sám seba, skrýváš sa, kto si Ty, za značkami, ...

Za tými, čo ťa mali odlíšiť, no nakoniec si sa stal takým istým, tým "kultúrnym rebelom"; lebo ešte som nevidel nikoho, kto by si TOTO neobliekol, ...

Buď majú všetci nahovno vkus, sú komfortní *trendy, šik* (sheeple, LCD?), alebo nedokážu vycucať inú (farebnú?) kombináciu... (Toto NIKTO nebude mať na sebe, som cool, čum... Hivemind???)

Who profit

From personal data

Our likes, interests, thoughts, "cookies" drops from everywhere we goes, pain, gatekeeping*, surveillance, video feeds we willingly and unwillingly share...




*From blocking "sheeple" access to success...

Ľudí, čo sa nevedia ako obliecť a tak musia nasledovat módne trendy...

Napr.) Teraz to s tými vzorkovanými tričkami a guľatými okuliarmi a účesom na mnícha, spolu s (YOLO, SWAG, YO-YO) "klobúčikom"..., Asi aj s džínsovými bundami...

Why people don't believe in the mainstream

Is Internet communistic?

What about those jokes?

Is this what we want, need and refuse to admit; that we don't believe our gov., in our money, state and soc., that we want live in anarchy...?

Does we gave up our dreams to fulfill corporatocracy where there is no truth, only opinions...

We're all an NPC to someone. Everyone thinks themselves/their community are free thinkers and everyone else is a sheep. I haven't been around long but it seems like most people have never wanted to talk about anything meaningful that has the potential to shatter their worldview. They'll get real deep into conversations that prop up their world view but nobody really wants to have a conversation that has the potential to ruin their perception of the world. We are an anomaly, but then again, someone can say we do all the things I just said.

Anti-intellectualism. The people who agree and believe in anti-intellectualism are the npcs.

Having said that, be careful with considering everyone npcs as it would mean that you don't see the people around you as humans which would in turn, lead to being inconsiderate of others feelings. So calling people npcs should just be a fun bit of banter, nothing more.

Man, I'm in high school, and everyone seems to have reduced their personality to a piece of dog shit that stuck to the pavement and created a dry crust on top due to the hot sun just waiting for someone with a new shoe to step on it.
fellow highschool student here....Thats just highschool. The amount of NPC assholes I meet is crazy ...

I think some people knows the same Truths that we know only that they try to ignore or suppress those Truths and always try to return to the Matrix

To break from society comfort, usually one must be rejected or be a lowly member of it, you think as them as a npcs because they try to climb up society, they think of you as npcs because you couldn't make it in society. If somebody its not a respectable person in the eyes of your group it they will always seem like npcs because the they only live the way they live because they are incompatible with the way you live. Someone in their 30s who lives in the basement and watcha anime all day can yell all of they want about npcs, but you will never be taken seriously because of what you are they consider inferior to what they could be. To say some one its a npc follower to society you must provide a better alternative to them, which most fail to. Not to mention that these people also usually follow things, just not the same things, they tend to follow things of the past, or things from a theoretical future.
And the ones that can show something different don't care to since they usually aren't on the fringes of it but have their own society. The amish aren't going to show smackheads in LA that they can live differently, they got their own things to sort it out. Cowboys are doing Cowboy things, not arguing on the internet. Making something or being a part of something and having that thing have an effect on society, a sub-culture, no matter how minimal it its will have a much stronger effect than anything so called main characters have ever accomplished in the last 10 years.

This is a free form rant with no proof reading.
