memorizing factoids in areas of reality that is not your profession and or hobby is the equivalent of being a walking "50 facts about x" website.
sure you could read about history, but be honest and think about it for a moment. do you really believe that what you're reading is accurate?
you could read fiction - but the overwhelming majority of it is crap ever since printing became accessible to every nothing-author. besides if the person you're talking to hasn't read it - you're just shilling a product.
i think the more earnest and meaningful "brain gains" is creating and strengthening an elaborate interconnect web of personal relationships with those people around you. empathizing their their story, offering help and advice where ever you can. admitting failure to offer anything where applicable. asking for help when needed.
soon you'll become the "wise" person who people turn to - not the weird basedboy with a collection of funko pops that consumes factoids in the same manner as plastic toys.

>MUH GOOD GUYS ARE LE SUPPOSED TO WIN MUH BAD GUYS SUPPOSED TO LOSE
childish and unrealistic world view
warhammer is all about moral ambiguity
the definition of cynical is: >Believing or showing the belief that people are motivated chiefly by base or selfish concerns; skeptical of the motives of others.
which describes the wh40k universe, where the differing factions are motivated by their own concerns, for example:
imperium of man: expansion and protection of mankind
orks: finding the biggest and bestest scrap
dark eldar: consuming the suffering of others to avoid being consumed by slanesh
khorne: drown the galaxy in a tide of slaughter, to conquer and kill every living thing until there is nothing left but spilt blood and shattered bone.

I suppose you think Atlas Shrugged is the pinnacle of literature then, huh?
Also, Chaos and the Ecclesiarchy are both primarily composed of selflessly fanatical lunatics.

its a piece of shit boring novel written by a cuckold israelite afraid of muh authoritarianism

Holy shit, this has to be bait. LotR is a fundamental piece of western literature canon and speaks volumes about the human condition and its relation to myth- Warhammer is fun, but pushing people into the Games Workshop consumer machine is a lot more pozzed than reading something that should speak to the heart of modern man.
Warhammer 40k books are literary baby first Biblical stories retold in sci fi setting. I recommend reading Horus Heresy in between reading the ethiopian Bible with deuterocanonical books. The Emperor is literary Jesus Christ, the chaos corrupted primarchs are literary the Angels that rebelled against The God. Read it now and contemplate about these stories and their meaning while you lift.
Those tubes are there to better pump blood, oxygen, drugs and nervous impulses around the body right? That is to say, they do the exact same shit that the natural systems already found in the neck do only faster.
This guy is not only a genetically engineered superhuman whose bodily systems are so perfect that they can go months without sleep or food and their power armour doesn't actually add to their strength at all, it just supports its own 1/2 ton of ceramite, but also he is a genetically engineered superhuman sworn to the god of swoleness. Why does such a creature need a fricking life support system like some decaying imperial lord?
Also your opinion is cringe. If you want to learn for the sake of learning then learn a language or better yet, learn to play music. Playing music is widely regarded as one of the best mind stimulants available, plus you'll get all the b***hes.
Read old historical fiction. It's just as accurate as the "non-fiction" and way more entertaining. "Northwest Passage" by Kenneth Roberts, for example.

no, yawn why would I even bother. Its boring old fairy tale junk
I want manly tales of extreme violence
and with warhammer lore I could then load up a mod for mnb warband called warsword conquest , or medieval II total war kingdoms Call of Warhammer: Beginning of The End Times and play it

space marines are genetically modified super soldiers
their undersuits (not the plate armor) connects into their nervous system so it'll move when they move thus making them quicker
https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Power_Armour
because of the fact that traitor marines spend so much time in the warp, the warp energies therein causes them to mutate and bond with their suit further
the warp talons are an example of this. They basically become like hawks where as their blood becomes jet fuel and enabling them the ability to move through the veil of reality and slice between dimensions. where as others like berzerkers still rely on ships to travel in and out of the warp
or such mutations may cause them to grow another mouth for example on their stomach, or a tenticle arm perhaps. although they are not limited to this, they may recieve lizard like scaley skin, or recieve strength and much more

That's memorization not really intellect based when even indian code monkeys can learn to code with sub 80 IQ.
Indian code monkeys with sub 80 IQ don't write good code and don't solve problems optimally. You may as well say that engineering is just rote memorization because sub 80 IQ hillbillies do it.

It's all right to like if you are under 25. Once you're over 30, it's time to grow up and be familiar with the real material. My kids won't be reading it at all, we'll go straight to the Greeks.
lotr cucks cant even explain why they like lotr over warhammer
they're all like >muh good guys won >muh gandalf
I've explained why warhammer is a 100x more fun to read than lotr and they cant rebuttle it. they can only name call because they are pathetic _soy drinking cuckolds
>sleep
If you don't sleep 8+ hours a day (depending on your personal sleep needs), you will have decreased mental capacity for anything useful. It must be CONSISTENT, good-quality sleep. If you don't focus on sleeping well, everything else is useless. >diet and exercise
this is IST, which means most people on here don't exercise. Exercise improves mental capabilities.
If you don't focus on these two things first, it's the equivalent of having broken legs, asking "how do I run faster?", and spending 100% of your time consuming running articles about the perfect running shoe while ignoring your broken legs, because it's shinier
Now that you've addressed the above (you have, haven't you?): >creative hobbies
There are two types of hobbies: consumerist (I bought this new mechanical keyboard to add to my collection for dopamine spikes!) and creative (drawing, playing an instrument, writing). You want a creative-focused hobby. It will inspire you to learn and problem solve. It almost doesn't matter which, and obviously some hobbies are hybrids. >socialization
it's been shown that socializing and having close friends improves mental capacity/brain function, and you essentially get weak-alzheimers without good quality social interactions. Quality social life is actually one of very few things that correlates with long lifespan (fasting is another). Sorry IST.
Most intelligence is very specialized.
If you want to gain that specialized intelligence you have to practice that skill for many hours, and read some good books on it.
The other way to increase intelligence is to increase your brainpower, sort of like turning a 50W lightbulb to a 100W lightbulb.
To do that you need to fix your metabolism, since your brain cells fuel your brain, and the brain consumes 20-25% of total calories. Glucose is the number one preferred fuel for the brain, and this is not debateable. This means you need a minimum of 25% of your calories from glucose to have optimal power to your brain, but in reality you need even more because not all of the glucose will go to the brain, but it will be distributed all over the body.
Ray Peat is pretty awesome at teaching how to increase your metabolic rate - eat a diet based on steak, cheese, eggs, milk and OJ is a good start.
Coffee is actually the number one nootropic. If you look for fancy shit you're just wasting your time and money. You'd get much better results from optimizing your diet. Eating a steak rather than seed oils will do a lot more for your brain than some untested Chinese lead poisoned nootropic.
Semen retention increases neurosteroids, and many philosopher's have written about it's power to increase intelligence to genius levels. See pic rel.
Astrologically it is Mercury that provides raw computing power for the brain, and Saturn which provides practical life wisdom. Hindus claim that wearing an emerald will attract auspicious energies from Mercury and increase brainpower and memory.
