Anon buys a journal; uses 4chan instead.
Yeah, he’s journaling on 4chan, wtf is he doing
want to eat cookies
buy pack of cookies
open pack of cookies
there’s just cookies inside
what am I supposed to do? bite on them? that’s something that little kids do
Bro you bake cookies yourself!
Catalogue your nut. How long it took to nut, the amount, the consistency, etc.
Dude
What? This way instead of telling people you’re going to jack off in your room, you can say you’re conducting experiments in your lab.
Gotta check the viscosity somehow…
Refractometer
Is that like back shots or what?
The only difference between experimenting and fucking around is writing it down.
Missed opportunity to vlog this instead. I’d subscribe, share and comment. I’d ring the bell to get notifications. I’d join the nut squad.
I tried keeping a journal once
Then my parents found it, read it, and put me in therapy for a while
I no longer keep journals
Locked folders on your phone work well in my experience. Sucks they forced you to do smth you didn’t want to do or weren’t ready for, I’m sorry
It sucks they violated your privacy, but there’s nothing wrong with therapy. Did it for a couple years myself. Good to get it out and get someone else’s perspective on things.
Of course, I did that on my own volition. It would’ve been better if you had that choice too.
That sucks. Parents don’t understand what privacy means when it comes to their children. My diary/journal got exposed by my mother in front of the entire family. That memory just got into my mind by reading your comment. Time to forget it again. 2024 resolution is to try keep things written down again.
Try Vigenère cipher !
Was the therapy helpful?
Anon’s a fucking moron, apparently 😂
Journaling is a great way to monitor and think on the results of your actions and improve over time. I’ve seen that, I’ve done it, I know it works. Yet I still can’t bring myself to suffer through the act of writing down my thoughts. I don’t like to belabor what is already done, I’d rather call good enough good enough and move to the next problem.
That said, I do establish systems to record efforts and results, they just aren’t handwritten. Tables can be quickly searched and summarized.
Interesting!
Could you elaborate on your record keeping efforts or share resources you’ve built off of?
Imagine applying gender to the act of writing words.
good sirs, is thou engaging in buggery if thou makes record of thine notions?
I use mine to freewrite. Just mental dump everything and anything that comes into my mind for three pages. It’s cathartic and often comes up with nuggets of useful information I didn’t know I was burying.
Can you give an example by just doing a journal entry here so I can get a feel for it.
Oh hell no! Because it’s stream of conscious it’s very, very personal 😂
But whatcha gotta do is set a fixed goal (time or pages - I recommend pages) and then write down everything that comes to mind without judgement or fear. Sometimes, when I’m having a dark day, the first page is just me complaining and moaning. But for three pages? It’s hard for the brain to get stuck in that rut for so long so it starts exploring solutions, options, or simply other things.
Give it a go! Don’t stop writing for three pages, don’t worry about quality, reader, or anything! Just write whatever comes into your brain. Like meditation it takes practice but is well worth the results (imo).
Here’s an article for writers that I found helpful for my journaling. I don’t do it creatively, I just write what comes to my mind about life and the day ahead and the day finished.
My friend had a hard time journaling until I told him to format it like greentext. I meant what are greentexts but stylized journal entries? Just write greentexts about your day. Your emotional state. Shit that pissed you off. Notable things that made you happy.
You can look back in 6 months and see what your life was like compared to now.
“Damn, can’t believe I used to go on 4chan.”
Dear diary,
Today OP questioned if he was a faggot for wanting to write in a diary.
Alas, an actual paper journal is dead to me.
Too insecure, too accessible. If it ain’t encrypted, nothing personal would ever go in it.
Encrypt your words at the time of writing if you’re smart enough.
pull a tolkien and make your own lexicon and language
Instructions unclear nepis tucks in botenook
Go full Anne Lister with it
Thank you for making me search her. Very interesting person
Create your own cypher.
I seriously doubt you have any sort of critical information on your hands but…
Cyphered journals have been a things for centuries. If nothing else, it’s a hobbie you can develop.
I used to, but they’re pretty easy to crack if they’re easy enough to be kept in your head (well, my head lol).
And ya never know when laws might change, or some bitter ex decides to steal shit, or whatever. Critical in terms of dangerous in general, obviously not, but sensitive, yes.
That’s why you don’t write down your plans to shoot the president, you write what you had for dinner and what happened at work
If you write this sort of thing down you’re a cartoon supervillain
Tbf, I’m not sure what I would want to put in a journal either.
Had a wank, ate breakfast, played Horizon Forbidden West, watched LOTR, had tea, went to bed.
I mean that’s a great day, you should write that down for posterity!
Do that, but write down how long you game. My grandpa did that with smoking.
Saved every penny he would have used for smokes. Financed a car for the money after some years
That, but add how you felt/feel about those things. Or what they made you think of. Etc.
Hey I posted this before
upvotes anyway

I find they are good for keeping track of media I consume whether it’s movies, TV shows, or video games
