Should have said, I mean short story collections in particular, like all the examples.

Jesus' Son, if you haven't already read it. You'll find in short order that Pancake, Pollock, and Johnson are pretty much interchangeable, with Johnson being the most talented of the group.

>>8695088
Thanks for the tip, looks interesting. Know anyone else in this vein, even if they're inferior to Johnson?

God is dead
And so is chivalry
They share a grave I look down upon
Eyes blazing under the fedora

Who killed God?
Science it was, bravely
In cold blood murdered
Amidst euphory

Who killed chivalry?
Women it was, sluts
With cold heard murdered
Amidst feminism

Who shall resurrect God?
No one, not me
Who shall resurrect chivalry?
Me, with my nippon steel

God is dead
And so is chivalry
They share a grave I look down upon
Eyes blazing under the fedora

But I am not done yet
For my waifu commands
Blood to stain
Sluts to be slain,
By my glorious nippon blade

Hilarious. It's a serious question. Do I risk my artistic integrity for marketing by pushing out trash that will get published, or do I keep looking for a respectable publishing house?

You don't have to but they created the foundations of a lot of common English storytelling tropes/structures and have had an enduring presence in the imaginations of artists throughout history.

You know you can still write about moral philosophy without having to invoke a 'bad' externality.

I.e. killing is bad because it destabalises society and makes it hard for all of us to live well.

inb4 society is a spook

I guess what you could say more accurately is that moral philosophy has now become so intertwined with political philosophy that one can almost never speak about it in isolation.

>Immanuel "my brain should be the focal point of my portrait" Kant
Congrats you beta roastie faggot, now the most famous picture of you looks like you're about to be strangled by an alpha like me

Nietzsche would have no issue with books on moral philosophy, as long as they weren't claiming to be objective and had a healthy Wille zur Macht. It would function like a very self-congratulatory autobiography.

That's invoking a bad externality.

>logic is the most valuable pursuit
>t. logic

>>8693210
>lol you're using logic to validate logic!!
>t. logic

It's impossible to go against logic, and there's nothing wrong with that, if anything it should be motivating to keep searching for answers, we need to find a way out of the CAN'T KNOW NUFFIN hole we've been stuck in for decades

I hear you my man. I think you might be dealing with the realization that just because something is logical, meaning it follows from given premises, does not necessarily mean it's true. Logic is a tool, not an end in of itself. Most of philosophy has been practiced by men who have reasoned their was to conclusions that were not anchored on something fixed or unchanging, but instead just utilize cursory readings or bias accounts of humanities shortcomings in order to justify their particular solution. It's a good idea to become versed in the sciences or math, like the great polymath philosophers, so you don't wind up thinking words are reality and predicates are causality.

Why the fuck are you reading that translation when you have access to the internet? Or did you read the first comments in a goodreads thread and just bought the book?
Read Avsey or McDuff.

>>8693918
Whats wrong with that translation? I just went by reviews and google yeah. Plus someone here even suggested in a thread. I read Crime and Punishment translated by this guy and it was far easier to read than the Constance one.

>>8692959
Yeah but I think I skipped the philosophical ideology he wanted to make since all I ever get was whining and how bored he was. Please someone enlighten me

Yeah I read it
