This can be confirmed via my posting history on Substack over the past year and a half, most of which consists of various Substack Notes which consist of incel blackpilling, esoteric chudstack in-jokes, and the occasional &#8216;niggerfaggot&#8217;. Additionally, going back to my high school days I would spend entire weekends doing nothing but agonizing about the impeding doom of essay due dates while staring at a blank Word document. Somehow I always got it done but I was never proud of a single sentence and if AI existed back then all of my effort would have gone into engineering that shit to pass the Pangram instead of actually writing a single letter.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://ekzy.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Thanks for reading!

After this, I lifted harder than I have in months for 2.5 hours, came home and washed the billions of moldy dishes in my sink, and cooked a hearty meal of oxtail stew.

I got straight A&#8217;s in my engineering classes through sheer willpower despite not giving a shit and having zero motivation. I was able to keep up outside appearances but I became more and more depressed an unmotivated as I got closer to graduation.</p><p></p><ol start="3"><li><p><strong>Grindset Moralist &#8594; BAPnigger</strong></p></li></ol><p>By the time I graduated, I was completely burned out and deep into &#8216;existential crisis&#8217;. Somehow I got a decent job, and moved 3 hours away to a new city. At this point my mental state completely collapsed as I had no friends around me anymore. I was constantly miserable and hated everyone and everything. I isolated myself and I would just go to work, and then go home and scroll substack and call people niggers and watch porn.</p><p>I read Bronze Age Mindset while in this state, and while is mostly served to radicalize me further into hatred of the Modern World and all the cucked faggots around me there was one core of truth that eventually got me out of this state &#8212; You ARE your body, there is no &#8216;soul&#8217;. Physical strength and vitality are not just a shell around you, they determine the very substance of your life and your value as a person.  </p><p>Basically this was just the most retarded way to learn that &#8216;self care&#8217; is actually important and your biology determines everything.</p><ol start="4"><li><p><strong>BAPnigger &#8594; Radical Materialist</strong></p></li></ol><p>At first I just focused on physical training, I would go to the gym and blast HH by Kanye while doing deadlifts. I fixed my sleep schedule (somewhat) not through Willpower like I had tried to do for years but by taking Melatonin. &#8220;Wow, I should take more supplements&#8221;. Most of these did nothing, but Magnesium-L-Threonate gave me a massive burst of euphoria about 10 minutes after taking it which lasted for about a week, where I had extremely high motivation. This was the first piece of evidence that my life could improve drastically and I had hope for the future for the first time in months. Eventually the euphoria faded, but my motivation was increased slightly from before and I started waking up at 10 or 11am on weekends instead of 3 or 4pm (after 12 hours of sleep). Next I increased my caloric intake and carbs (heil peat) drastically which gave me much more energy and mental clarity. I also was now motivated enough to order an online sleep apnea test, which came back with mild sleep apnea. Each of these steps may seem like an obvious and easy to take but when I was in the raped state it would have been totally impossible. Its only because of the bottom up physiological upward spiral that I have been able to actually take control of my life and begin to exercise agency again. The years of Willpower and mental coping mechanisms and Ideologies before this only sent me further into misery. Similarly, while nicotine may have some risks (tolerance, addiction, etc) the massive positive effect it is having on me right now will help accelerate the biological upward spiral and likely outweigh the negatives. </p><p>Darwin wants you to die.
