Why, of course...What else could it be?

Check the archive, can't be arsed typing it out again.

It's a funny, well-written book.

>>9130460
one of my all time favorite books. You should definitely read it.
it's got great humor but without the "extensiveness" of IJ.
it's sort of like david foster wallace's crying lot of 49.

>>9130729
this. also kind of murakami-esuqe. and kind of reminds me of that movie schizopolis

>>9130452
Some good articles, but that's my least favorite thing I've read from him. I love the book I Am A Strange Loop. You should read it if you liked that.

No, he didn't. Kys.

I saw you post this in another thread. I will read it because of you. Hope it's nice.

>>9130465
Like I said, breddy gud, but not "nice." Read the translator's intro, although I actually read that after I read the title story. Enjoy!

Arnold Lobel

>>9197396
Owl at Home by the late Arnold Lobel recounts the adventures of Owl in five gentle chapters. In the first, he invites Winter in to get warm by the fire, only to find out just how rude Winter can be. The second chapter concerns "strange bumps" at the foot of Owl's bed that disappear mysteriously when he looks under the covers. In the third chapter, Owl concocts tearwater tea by thinking of sad things and collecting the tears in a kettle, while in the fourth, he tries to be upstairs and downstairs at the same time. In the final chapter, Owl must discourage the moon from following him home, as sad as it is to part from a friend.

Do they have any actual information and not just a statement?

Something like...

>Measuring the efficacy of an economic system based purely on the number of people it has or hasn't killed is idiotic so please stop talking to me.

Or you could always just tell them how communism only works on paper and they'll walk away from you themselves.

>>9197250
A favourite number seems to be 1.5 - 1.6 billion

They'll often add things like Japanese Imperialism, American Imperialism, British Imperialism, Western slave trade, Israelis killing Palestinians, Somalian Capitalism, Russia before Communism, and relevant to the people within my country; Belgian Congo and Dutch East Indies.

Why is the sociobiology so controversial when applied to humans?
All our understanding of animal behaviour and relationships come from sociobiology. Why then are we hesitant when it comes to applying the same to us?

Wow really maks you think.

Not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>9196916
Meh, my 2nd book is SORT of fetish-driven, but at the same time I think the character development and story are fairly interesting so I wouldn't say it's just smut for the sake of smut.

Yeah, not worth it.

Add Young's Literal.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young's_Literal_Translation

>>9196813
I tried to keep it as simple as possible, so bibles like Young's sadly don't fit, even though it's an interesting read.

Replace both NRSV and NRSVCE with NRSV with Apocrypha so it's really ecumenical.
