2022-03-05 at 1:09 PM UTC in Grief
Originally posted by Lanny I think it’s more of a secularized society thing than a occidental thing. Religious practices give some kind of direction to the grieving process, a general framework of what happens not so much in the “here’s what happened to your loved one” sense, although that too, but just like “here are the things you do, here’s the timeline, here’s the stuff you continue to do after a grieving period”.
What do we have in an industrialized secular world? You have to organize a funeral you don’t really have any compelling reason to conduct, then it’s like you just go back into the world with no narrative of the person’s life, no framework within which to understand the loss, and no process to work though that. We kinda just abandon people to figure it out on their own or maybe with the help of some cringe self help books.
Like I don’t love Christian/European funeral traditions but at least it’s _some_ kind of social script to follow as opposed to just kinda sitting around wondering what the appropriate thing to do is.
This post reminded me of a really nice Dan Dennett talks, relevant to this subject:

That's the thing though... That would be like a completely insane person's reaction in many eastern countries and your whole family would be blowing up your phone trying to help you and offer you food and shit.
Whereas going and getting shitfaced and bawling for weeks and being internally emotionally destroyed and shit, in the west, seems like it's a "yeah that do be happenin sometimes, they'll get over it... Or maybe not but that do be happenin too". -

2022-03-05 at 12:57 PM UTC in What I’m looking for in a friend:I told you I'd make a discord but I still haven't. It seems very "kiddy" as far as chat programs go. I'm not opposed to making one but I haven't gotten around to making one because I don't want to download and install a whole new application just to talk to 1 person.
All these programs just seem like bloated versions of Mumble + IRC. -

2022-03-05 at 1:06 AM UTC in The Retarded Thread: Sudo Will Never Make A TRT EditionThis is the perfectly timed new version of the TRT now that the suicide edition is finally dead. This is the first TRT made after the official death of the last one and thereby the victor and official new TRT.
In this thread, the initial subject is how Sudo Will never get to author a TRT. Please resume your regularly scheduled shitpost programming in here.

2022-03-04 at 9:06 PM UTC in GriefI never knew western people had such a problem with grief, apparently it's way more of a western problem that people get hung up on death and shit for months and years and stuff, get hung up on their pictures etc.
In the east there is a general sense that life is like a box, you put stuff in it and then you close it up. Then that's wrapped up. Even if you don't particularly believe in heaven, the attitude is the same. Some smaller groups have "death memorials" and stuff and they are considered weird. -

Originally posted by Sudo You honestly type about 4chan more than anyone on this site. What is your obsession with it? You seem to have a keen acute awareness of all things 4chan that isn't present in most other posters. I think it's one of the many reasons why you hate yourself. You have 4chan Stockholm syndrome
Nah actually you are grasping at straws, I call out 4channy internatic behaviour because it's obvious when it's exhibited. It's cringe and you're cringe if you like it's
Yes uwu mass shooter senpai anime girl uwu or whatever. Kill yourself.
