Lemmings who made it out of incel-dom, what advice would you have to your previous self?

I didn't fall all the way down the incel rabbit hole. I was a "nice guy" and I was on 4chan around that time. I found the memes making sense, but I had a loving circle of family and friends who were a life line. I was also never as entitled; my take was always if women didn't want to date me that was something wrong with me. So maybe I do not qualify. But I understand Incels.

  1. This is the most important. Not everyone you want to kiss is going to want to kiss you. That's just normal. It's part of life. Many people will and many more won't. Don't be weird.

  2. Ask you friends about the kinds of women they like (I'm assuming Incels are almost all strait guys). I almost guarantee most of them will have different preferences. Look around at the people you know with partners. The whole spectrum of people out there have all different kinds of partners. You don't have to be a Chris Hemsworth type, or a Taylor Swift type. Most people aren't professionally hot, and they still date and fuck all the time. Re calibrate your expectations, for you partner sure, but also yourself.

  3. Be more interesting. You may not need to be beautiful but you have to have something to demonstrate you're a complete human being outside; jobs count but not for everything, unless you have an interesting job (for example I was an EMT). It why people try to meet people dancing; you're demonstrating mastering of useful skills (presumably dance). I've taken several writing classes and never fail to get laid. Same goes with my Hebrew classes in college. You demonstrate a skill in an impressive way, and you're putting youself in the vicinity of new people of might want to kiss you.

  4. Learn to talk to people. Honestly, what probably saved me the most was when, when looking for how to talk to girls, instead of going on the internet and finding proto Tates, I went to the library and checked out a self help book by Larry King, How to Talk to People. People are usually quite happy to meet someone. Just introduce yourself. Learn to start conversation. Keep it moving. Find common ground. You can mention someone is attractive but don't make it sexual right away. Maybe it never get sexual. Thats okay. \

Pokémon Lazarus: When a Fan Game Becomes a Conversation

Lol so I downloaded this and I LOVE it. I'm only on the second gym and I have been doing nothing except grabbing pokemon. Everything seems so well thought out and its beautiful.

There may be some plot elements that people are mad about, but really it just seems to me that people are mad because there is a rainbow flag and a trans flag in some homes. Its just really bland chud rage.

We don’t memorize phone numbers anymore, we rely on GPS to tell us where to go and Facebook reminds us of birthdays. What else will we stop remembering once AI remembers everything for us?

Like, people used rely Rolodex's and calendars to remember phone numbers and birthdays, respectively. In other words, we used to write things down. When I left Facebook, I did literally go through their calendar and write down all my friends birthdays.

Navigation is a skill you have to learn. When I was an EMT, my FTO drilled the basics in to me. I can find my way to a city Ive never been, but I still use a GPS to find a specific place off the major cross streets. People used to give more advice with the destination, now they just say, "oh, come to this XXXX address place" because they assume youll be using a GPS, and the skill to describe "its off of this road" is both becoming lost, and a generational disconnect.
