Is this book worth reading? I don't really intend on reading all 5 volumes but I am tempted to see what it's like because apparently the writing is beautiful.

It has been three years since I have read Stirner. Through that period I read some more philosophy, and while most of it dealt with different things, it helped me to brood over Stirner's ideas.
Now I have come to a conclusion: action as identity always entails sacrifice and idol worship.

Idol worship or idle worship?

I've read the old English Byington did, and though I think I understood it well enough, I think the translation was poor.
I want to try the Verso translation out sometime.

Can someone name a good sci-fi or fantasy series with a major character, preferably a protagonist or ally of the protagonist, who is both male and bisexual, but not reducible to his sexual orientation and whose sexual orientation is not just "horny as fuck and wants to bang everything that moves?"
Especially if it's either not politicized or, if it is, is done in an interesting way and not a preachy way.
Something like John Constantine being bi in Hellblazer.

I'll go first
Oily, greasy, little spots of ketchup from last nights meal on his fingers. A little dash of semen across his forearm and down the palm of his hand. Cheeto dust, crumbs, bread crumbs on his beard dangling onto the wiry confines of the hair on his neck, being consumed and unable to leave, as if in a disease ridden jail cell.

When I was 22 I got to meet my idol. David Foster Wallace. He was on his deathbed, with some cancer of the brain, and he said to me, “Child! One question is all I shall answer of you!” So I asked in a meek voice, “What method did you use to write?” To which he replied, in an angry manner: “I had a stencil and I would shart through the letter I wanted so that it would splatter accordingly on the paper”
