my diary desu

I honestly don't know whether /lit/ even talks audiobooks at all.

...I just finally have free time that I can use to listen to things, and I thought: "Hey, audiobooks."

I never got into audiobooks but podcasts are cool. Check out the Bret Easton Ellis podcast. It's mostly about the film industry but still really interesting.

It is literally because of the epic smug face he is pulling in the drawings. He is basically another Pepe.

i just bought a max stirner t-shirt :3

did i doo good?

I used to like him, but then I read Kierkegaard.

I enjoy it, and I'm still finding new little details in the dialog. Like Bateman noticing that Evelyn's neighbor didn't lock her door, and then half a book later we're just hearing about her having been killed off-screen. The cruise ship also missed me the first two times as well, though i guessed Bateman was responsible for both instances even before i read the details early on.

I'm currently writing a novel about a killer, so it's important that I make sure I don't simply write a clone of AP, or edgy fanfic with no deeper meaning

I think it's vaporwave af, a postmodern classic.

the movie was better

No she isn't. She's one of those white girls who majors in English, gets B- on everything, and then only ever reads YA afterwards.

She's not really that into it, only doing it because it's something new and you might like it. She does it for you. She's nervous and worries that her asshole smells even though she was careful to wash it closely (it does have a little bit of an odor--you don't tell her). She's awkward about positioning her asshole up in the air, shifting around and trying to hold her legs up (it makes her belly squish together; she worries you think she's fat). You pour some lube on your cock and around her hole. She starts to make a joke to cut the awkwardness. You poke a lubed up finger into her before she can say the punchline. She makes a nice like this: "Hoonrrffggh. Huhgnr." You laugh; she blushes. She starts the joke over again (she doesn't know what to do). Again you enter her before she can complete it, this time with your penis. It's like fucking a lubed-up hole in the drywall with a plastic bag filled with vaseline on the other side. You fuck Kate Beaton's ass.

I like the illustration much better than the substance of the jokes. The facial expressions and other details are very well-done.

No he's great.

>>8446897
No, you are.

You got to be a vainilla to say he is edgy, or over the top. Violence and sex in real life can be even more excessive

They liked the way it tasted? It's just a spiced liquor mixed with cold water and sugar that happened to be trendy when these people were writing.

It has a /lit/ a e s t h e t i c

just like being an intellectual and smoking at cafés

also bonus for Strindberg being mentioned at this board for fucking once

I'd subscribe to this. Absinthe has however been encased in so much myth it's hardly cool anymore.

Smoking I think will stay "cool" for quite some more time. I think wine and whiskey has taken over as "aesthetic" drinks now.

Please make a thread that isn't retarded.

H. P. Lovecraft.

HP Every Text a Crude Draft Lovecraft

Psychological considerations toward motivations are still relevant.

Motivations actual impact union the work of art in itself are totally unrelated.

The schism with dota is on that level.

>>8446739
Union=upon***

>>8446728
the idea that an artistic work stands as it's own entity separate of whomever the creator was/is.

Morality corrupting? Yes. Taboo and transgressive? No.

Grow some fucking balls and stop with your philosophy of the month bullshit.

>tfw you will never read every good book

SHIT SHIT SHIT

I have a problem of speeding through a book worrying about the gap between my knowledge and the rest of /lit/ and all my friends. I am worried I'll not read what I want to in time, waste time, and miss really good stuff. And that detracts.

Why would you worry about reading things "before you die"?
That would assume that you will have consciousness after death and the ability to regret something. It's a very strange belief when you think about it. Why would you strive to accomplish things before death as if you'll get some kind of recompensation?

You don't. Go in the right direction instead. The true heir to Kant.

If you've read the Greeks, Kant, Descartes, Hume, and all that good stuff, I'd say you're good to go. Start with the easier stuff (theological writings is actually the easiest and in fact gives an overview, philosophy of history).

After those 2, go to Phenomenology. It gives you a purely negative view on his dialectical idealism. Then read Philosophy of Right.

Finally, read the magnum opus Science of Logic, his most important work. Take your time.

>>8446406
just read the science of logic for an easy introduction, that's where most people start

Yes! Marx's labour theory of value is being replaced (by Neo-Marxians and Post-Keynesians) with very different things. Look up those 2 movements.

They adopt techniques of neo-classical economics like game theory, up the mathematics level on Marx, drop labour theory of value.

They added this to it instead https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_surplus

IMO Post-Keynesianism is really interesting. Look up Steve Keen and Hyman Minsky.

((btw i should add I'm not really interested in so called bourgeois labour theories or economics. I've gone through enough of that already))

>>8446420
They're not bourgeois, Neo-Marxians have been influential in third world revolutions.

You'd think he and Simone abusing students together might have been enough to put the normie pseuds off of him, but lo and behold...

I kinda agree, I don't see what's so good about Sartre and why he's mentioned so often. It was probably his implication in politics plus theater.
