I only recently started shitposting on /lit/. Do I just read Zarathustra straight away or are there other Nietzsche works that I should read before it.
I'll probably read them all eventually anyway.

Thanks for making the thread. I straight up forgot cause it was a catch up day. I'm now 7 chapters ahead of schedule which is nice.
Danglars getting death by a thousand cuts is so satisfying

I gotta update this now. I thought Danglars and Debray were in it together. Didn't realise he was just tipping off his mistriss who then informed the Baron.

A little bit of much-needed structure, I imagine.

You clearly don't know anything about the mess. OP, CC is like high school, pt. 2. The student body ranges from stupid to lazy and the teachers are barely educated in the subject.
Don't waste your time nor money. Get a job worth having, instead.

>>8946898
Sounds like OP has absolutely zero structure, though, so it would provide... a bit.

It's far more likely that you never wrote well in the first place and merely came to terms with your own lack of ability.

1) Write a book about how Weed ruined your life.
2) Get tons of hate mail from liberals.
3) ???
4) Finally end it, redpilling some in the process.

Horror general?
Just finished The Ritual by Adam Nevill. Found the concept quite cliché and tired, but the execution in terms of pacing and action brilliant. Characterisation wasn't bad either. Overall a very very enjoyable read.

I don't understand how people can get scared reading books. I'm not saying this to criticize you guys. On the contrary, I want to learn from you. Can you teach me something that will make me get scared from books?

After Trump, nothing is impossible. Nothing is unimaginable.
If he could become president, then you can, very much so, get laid.
How much time do you guys try to allocate to reading each day? Former /v/tard trying to spend less time playing games and more time reading books.

I try to limit myself to 3 or 4 hours or else I won't get anything done.
>>
usually an hour before bed / however long it takes until I feel sleepy

>>8946605
An hour or two usually unless I'm on break. If i'm really busy, I try to read for half an hour at the very least.
Nessus is in Alexandria. Ultan's Library is a representation of the library of Alexandria. The Gyoll is the shrunken Mediterranean after Europe and North Africa have been pushed together with plate tectonics.

>tfw you just read books and don't 'look out for symbolism and satire'
Feels pretty neutral tbph

I'm not so sure but I'm pretty sure he satires a lot of trends in the 60s(?) like hallucinogenics and Beatles rip offs, you'll probably find more if you know a lot about that time period. I don't so I just enjoyed the book because it's a great representation of paranoia and very interesting

Google Project Paperclip and MK-Ultra to understand Dr. Hilarius and the drug experiments he does with patients. I don't know how the fuck Pynchon knew about it in the 60s but he knew.

Can anyone provide me with a rebuttal of the Sartrian perspective on freedom and meaning?
I feel as though it is the only correct approach to Nihilism and the death of God, I subscribe to it both consciously and unconsciously, and thus I feel it is imperative that I challenge it and thus challenge myself.

Pseud, the thread. Did you even read Sartre? How did you come to this conclusion?
>>
>>8946504
the rebuttal is easy: stop being an edgy teenager. nobody takes existentialism seriously in real life

The man in your pic related looks like he's cozy 24/7, and i respect that. I hope one day to rise to his level of coziness
