"dionysian" and "apollonian" are spooks

>>9365317
Fuck off you memelord

that's the cutest nietzsche i've ever seen

i too would like to know the answer to your question oh pee

>>9365317
nietzsche is the best possible philosopher for teenagers

It was only ever teenagers who meme spewed elsewhere in the first place.

I'm here for alleviation of loneliness. I have no friends, I'm mentally ill, and I love writing. I come here to read educated people's conversations, then I read for the rest of the day. It's a great relief when loneliness comes along.

>I'm mentally ill
So what have you got?

Stephen king is always a good read

death to nerds

Also which philosophers are your biggest inspiration for that view?

transcendental idealism + anxiety over unconditioned being + belief in god as a ridiculous, unreachable but nominally guiding concept

What for?

that's a lie.

In High School, I had sent probably close to around 200~ emails to both English and Philosophy professors, and received a reply from about half of them.

lmao

The History of the World. I'm trudging through it now, and learning quite a bit on what shaped the modern world by looking into the past. It's about 1125 pages of facts. Hard to remember, so I have to reread a lot.

>>9365092
Holup holup might as well memorize the Bible at this point.

>>9365100
If I ever finish this history book first.

Theoretically, yes. Its just words and pictures. Its going to take a real artistic movement or two to pull out if the capeshit rut that plagues the comics industry, but there are writers and artists that can pull it off. Jean Giraud, Will Eisner, Art Spiegelman, and the like were establishing some great works before the big 2 blew up and damn near shut down the medium. Comics are constantly pushing boundaries these days, but nobody really reads indie or alternative or experimental comics. But that's the real patrician shit. I don't consider comics to be literature but they certainly have a literary component and many display legitimate artistic merit.
As far as newer works, my favorites are
>The Wrenchies - Dalrymple
>New Construction - Alden
>Low - Remender
>Oyasami Pun Pun - Asano
>Tekkonkinkreet - Matsumoto
>A bunch of obscure indie shit by people I don't remember, published by Koyama press, Studygroup Comics, 2D Cloud, etc.
comics could be the new patrician artform if they can escape the Marvel/DC circus

>>9365057
I've always thought so, just that most American comics are capeshit, so people tend to prefer the "legitimacy" of writing prose when they're going to write some shit.

I still really like Asterios Polyp though.

>tfw got away with writing my final essay about this book in 8th grade
Ahahaha funny as fuck. I barely remember anything from that time because I was all fucked up on SSRIs and overly elated but still, it was a humorous exercise in realizing just how much I can get away with.

My dad was fucking crazy when I was young and made me read the dictionary. A page a day for years. 6 years. Grade 3-9.

>>9365045
Did you retain anything?

>>9365045
Yeah a lot. It wasnt about writing though. It was for splling bees. Like I said my dad was crazy.

Ideally, /his/ should be deleted and philosophy should be merged back onto /lit/.

It might also be necessary to create /rel/.

>>9364955
/his/ functions as a containment board for whatever the equivalent of /lit/ on reddit is.

>more boards created problems
>more boards will fix that
mhmm, no

>>9364917
im simply redpilled

>published in a mexican journal

My secondary major at UMass Amherst was philosophy. My philosophy professors would occasionally mention Gettier and they hold him in relatively high esteem. I could never figure out if it was because he's brilliant or because they're jealous. Probably both.

>>9364889
They suck tho

>read the shit beats
speedfreak pls go

>>9364889
The Beats were one of the most establishment cultures in all of contemporary literary history. Every person you mentioned in your post was a member of one of the most elite social institutions on the planet (Columbia University), every person in your post had the vociferous backing of academia and establishment tastemakers like The New York Times, every person in your post subscribed to a Judeo-Christian morality despite a superficial contrarianism, and every person in your post held progressive political beliefs.

The fact that they were also pedophiles with crabs, drug problems and a predilection for lusty Negro rhythms makes them part of mainstream culture, not against it.

The minute I crack open any sort of alcohol, I'm shitposting and not reading.

fat ugly shit. looks like some sort of fat faggot

It hurts to realize you have not discovered anything of true intellect in your readings.

It's ok, anon. I'm rooting for your enlightenment.

>>9364823
I'm redpilled fucking cuck.

Take your fat disgusting degenerate and fuck off, celebworshipping bluepilled normie drone
>Sebald was shown images of the Holocaust while at school in Oberstdorf and recalled that no one knew how to explain what they had just seen. The Holocaust and post-war Germany loom large in his work.
wow so he's like that? haha, enjoy being destroyed in your brain from liberalism and disgusting globalist hegelian dialectic
