I just solved the right v left debate.

Cogito ergo sum
Therefore Lefties don't exist

I just absolutely destroyed my qt crush in a literary debate. I mean, it was brutal how badly she lost. By the end, she was just agreeing with me and nodding her head sadly. Should I have held back or did I do the right thing? Did I increase my chances or lose them all completely? Do girls like being intellectually brutalized into submission?

Opinions on this from people who have read the books?
Because "critics" butchered this, even though it was better than trash like The Force Awakens IMO.

I have never heard of this book

It literally change the way you see the world. And it's not a meme this time
>>
>>9900257
its a very hard book to tackl not only because of the topic which is one of the most relevant in the field of philosophy and cognitive science but merleau-ponty's lenguage demands a good amount of focus to follow his train of thaught but also takes alot of prior knowledge of which merelau-ponty kinga expects you allready have when reading his book. i dont know of any author that did souch a good job of providing souch a good acount and combining modern science (at the time) with fenomenology which is an inherantly subjective experience and thus very hard to put into a objective format.

Recently finished The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, The Scarlet Gospel and A Clockwork Orange.

I was thinking about picking up The Isle of Doctor Monreau next,

However I heard there was a sequel of sorts to The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, at least as far as Mike (The AI) is concerned.

Any thoughts or Suggestions would appreciated.

In fiction? That's a tall order senpai. The prevailing zeitgeist is decidedly antiwar
