As you get older, brain matures, you stop chasing novelty and pleasure becomes associated with achieving goals.

We can curate and "masculinize" this growth through basic self help nonsense. Cold shower, schedule & routine, even things like silence assist in making men men

This is innate truth. In sparta they threw boy into woods and he came out a man. The brain interprets hardship during late stage developmental years as trigger for adult growth similar to how lifting weights triggers muscle response. Native americans did the same thing, threw the kid in the woods.

Kids on TT call whatever issue they have as a "canon event," the truth is whatever you are running from will simply handicap growth in a real way regarding growing up if you can't um, "step up to the plate."

This is not what I meant to write, it just came out

What I meant to say is as you get older you enjoy novelty and pleasure less and actual human progress more. Not because you are getting boring, but because the brain is flipping the switch

We assist this growth by doing hard things, self discipline, rudimentary ascetism, maybe working long hours, and turning away from novelty which impairs and can even stunt what the brain is trying to do.

If you play videogames & smoke weed all day you will enjoy it less because the brain doesn't seek novelty anymore. You intellectually stunt yourself from a maturity perspective

Moreover the "university" experience ROBS men of becoming unequal by appropriating what is basically a large daycare. Every person in US tells you, you should burn this developmental period of your life with SLAYING, having fun, partying, etcetera. completely oblivious to the fact that your brain is going in the opposite direction.

SO, brain moves toward suffering for sake of delayed gratification, culture and "spoofed" innate superficial desire moves in opposite direction. Young adults then lament this growth into adulthood if they don't get to party, drink, then perhaps 10 years down the line they beat themselves up over it when in reality from a biological perspective you are more primed for slavelike conditions in a roman legion than drinking yourself to death.

you will also delay the inevitable need for growth or completely miss the window altogether. this is how manchildren are made

Threads next sunday? probably not. o7
