Has anyone else read Not Alone? I just finished it a couple of days ago and it was very entertaining. Not a masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination, but a really fun read.
Basically boils down to "What if the cooky conspiracy theorists were right?" with a lot of focus on the concept of whistleblowing and the media.
Highly recommend it.

Are any Forgotten Realms books worth reading or is it all shit like Salvatore?
I've been playing some d&d vidya and it would be nice to get into the lore.

They were both "the aliens", Rorschach was the body and the scrambles just mobile cells. Think beyond the idea of "ships" and "pilots".

And Valarie was reanimated by the microbes they picked up on Icarus.

Hyperion and Fallof together are incredible. Give it a week before starting the sequel though. You'll be impressed how well he ends the second book.

I lived in spain for 3 years as a child, long enough to be able to understand Spanish, even if I wasn't fluent in it. We took a trip to Portugal, and I never had a problem understanding what was said. So while it won't make you a scholar of the tongue, Spanish will allow you to at least divine the meaning of Portuguese.

>if i learn one language can i learn to read another language as well?

are you like
retarded

genre fiction in general is pretty much trash

>>9127834

They are literally going to starve in the streets once the EU collapses.
Unemployment for people under 30 is over 50% there.

>>9127525
holy shit we must redpillpeople to the evil of academia its simply destroying white civilization by making us believe false things that are quite simply ideological means to make sure that whinteness is disappearing and being genocided and destroying moral decency thats why you see women with blacks, pepe the frogman is our ally and he will help us through meme magic and lord kek his cousin who is also redpilled

>>9127531
No. Academia should be destroyed because it makes no sense for people, in an age of the internet, to be taught things they hate rather than allowing them to foster a love and interest for themselves.

>>9127539
try a redpill and see the truth

>I'm honestly surprised that the School of Oriental and African Studies doesn't already teach a lot about Indian and Chinese philosophy or political thought
It doesn't have much of a philosophy department at all. But the one philosophy course it teaches is called something like 'world philosophy', so I'm pretty sure it does teach those things.

>Why is this being spun as outrageous anti-white or SJW demands?
Because right-wing identity politics, obviously.
