Did you ever notice how real orgasms block out the pain of this world?

The moment you have an orgasm, you stop thinking about the upcoming war. You stop thinking about the upcoming global famine. You stop thinking about how sad it is that your people have been demolished and will never rise again. You stop thinking about how sad it is that the world is dying. You stop thinking about how you can’t fulfill your real dreams. You stop thinking about how much money it costs to live. You stop thinking about how much money you’ll need to have your own house. You stop thinking about how the world is a prison. You stop thinking about how sad it is that we’re leaving the golden age.<br><br>And it isn’t just orgasms. If you do something you like, you forget about this reality for a moment. If you do something with a lot of effort and fulfill a goal you’ve had for a long time, for a moment you forget about reality. If you meet your goals, you have a moment of happiness even though you’re still trapped in this world.<br><br>And that’s what this entire world is built on: pleasure. We shouldn’t work to survive. But we do because of pleasure. We shouldn’t be with a partner. But we do because of pleasure. We shouldn’t be socializing and socializing. But we do because of pleasure. If we didn’t derive pleasure from things, we would never do anything because we would have no motivation to do anything.<br><br>This entire world is built on pleasure. But how much pleasure can we get from it? Some people can get a lot of pleasure from this miserable reality. I have never been one of them.
