I wouldn't recommend it as where to start with Chaucer, but if you've read other works of his and you like them, then yes read it because you will like this too. If you didn't like anything else by him you won't like this either. If you don't like Chaucer and don't want to be an expert in the history of English literature, specifically middle English, there isn't a point in reading it.

Have you read House of Leaves before? I think the author did it pretty well, not emphasizing the character's actions but his situation as a product of madness without the character implying he'd gone mad.

Try and show their internal reasoning, whether logical or emotional, that has them arrive at their conclusion.

>>9009225
Reference something like everyone does.

I am not trying to base this off of anyone else's work, I am trying to be unique and original and set up an interesting sci-fi universe, and that involves space cowboy outlaws.


However their character design and what I kind of want them to look like is a mixture between Fallout New Vegas' Rangers and cyberpunk-ish armor.

Basically a very large "gang" that has access to military technology and utilizes it but is formed and acts as a gang, it's sole motivation being growing and stealing valuable shit like weapons and money.

not possible, everything has already been done

He was actually ugly in real life, lol, according to reports, but that picture just happens to be almost ridiculously flattering and handsome

>>9009194
Looks like Anthony Michael Hall desu.

Grab the portable kierkegaard

I'm sorry my friend, but being a reactionary/conservative/liberal means you're inherently a feels>reals person so you won't find any good theory or literature

it's why leftists (when I say leftists I mean communists, socialists, anarchists, syndicalists etc. and not jill stein, bernie sanders and hillary clinton) have mountains of theory and there's a million of leftist intellectuals. The right only has virtue-signalling pseudo-intellectuals like ann coulter.

Go with Ernst Jünger’s "On the Marble Cliffs"

No no, that is not the one

Catch-22

NO BOOK.

I always found Vonnegut to be a great palate cleanser. I personally like to always have a short story collection going while I read novels. Something playful like O. Henry or Asimov, or even Chekhov depending.

The Stranger, Metamorphosis, Animal Farm, and 1984

What next, the means of production should be seized by the proles?

These biases are actually useful in nature. We don't have the computational power to take in data and process it using complex algorithms -- we just use simple heuristics to make sense of things, and it works most of the time.

You're never going to be famous, don't worry.

How did you embarrass yourself?

>>9008706
I made a bunch of plebeian tier arguments about Ethics which I knew were stupid but I did it to provoke discussion. I didn't want to reveal my power level.

Everyone just looked at me like I was a braindead moron normie.

Nitsh, or Nitshay if you wanna sound german.

"Beyond good and evil" is really good and can be read without too much effort. Not too long, not too weird. If you don't like it, skip the rest.

Nee-cha

>>9008674
The generally-accepted American pronunciation is like NEECH-uh; however I have heard Neechee and other weird variants. I don't speak a lick of German so I honestly don't know.

>group of people come together to create a covenant to form a society
>"alright but we're only going to let trustworthy people in because if you can't trust their oath to the covenant then you can't trust them to act well within society"
>le edgy egoist comes along and everyone sees that's he's a hypocrite who will do whatever it takes to achieve his self-interest
>gets exiled from the covenant

Damn, that really worked out for you

>>9008844
but the egoist sees that you'll throw him out and adjusts his behavior to conform to the social covenant

egoist win every time :^)
