Did you actually put any significant amount of thought into this post or did you just need something to do to fill the time you spent sitting constipated in the bathroom?
How about actually reading a Thucydides or something before posting shit? I will give you a slight spoiler: if what your used to is "Neanderthal mud paintings" (which the quality of your post seems to support), you're in for a wild ride, little frogposter.

The majority of actually interesting philosophy has always been non-academic, "academic" philosophy is just one of those fields that exist to prevent putting to much downwards pressure on STEM wages.

Also your STEM research cannot make the world an "objectively better" place on its own, most of it will just be used to make fatter idiots live longer while consuming more degeneracy in more high tech electronic form... you need some form of cultural education to balance it to make people actually not just be idiots

They definitely fucked up by linking you continental philosophy. For some unfathomable reason people like to preach about how philosophy isn't irrelevant in the face of modern day science and then fail to acquaint themselves with the philosophy of physics. Read Maudlin, Albert, Shimony, Wallace (no relation), Lewis (also no relation), Bell, and McMullin if you want an actual discussion on ontological issues in contemporary physics.

Zizek is a retarded pastiche of jargon without the thought that sustained it. He's the fucking inside-out skin man of philosophy. Jesus Christ. Watching him talk about real, perennial philosophical issues, just as an excuse to show off how efficiently he can slather his naked Slovenian body with French jargon of stale 1960s/1970s vintage, is like watching Sophia get raped or something.

>In positing a thinking subject as distinct from the "mere" matter from which it arises, do we commit [look, I know this jargon from Badiou], or do we [look, I read the structuralists long enough to adopt their register]? Is it enough to [bet you didn't think I read Lacan too, did you?], or ought we to [get ready for sixteen paragraphs of me proving I get the orthodox interpretation of some essay by Derrida].

Wow, thanks for making my philosophically inclined brain get momentarily happy when it thought you were going to shine some light on dualism, and then rubbing your jargony dick all over it! Let me buy more of your fake books that no one gives a fuck about except untenured women in comp lit departments!

we make charts specifically to render these threads redundant. And yet here we are.

There's nothing cult about it, snowflake. It's more akin to ya trash though.

should have read butcher's crossing it's better

kys, etc.

>>8382484
why do you post this in every BM thread.
Butcher's Crossing and Blood Meridian aren't even the same genre, one's southern goth and the other is anti-western. If anything you should compare BC to Suttree, they have the same basic premise and themes.

Isn't this the book Palahniuk used for the bomb recipes in Fight Club?

I've heard that some of the recipes in it are specifically (and unnecessarily) dangerous to the user, presumably some COINTELPRO shit.

If you want to blow up the president or your dad or something you're probably better off with TM31-210, The US Army's Improvised Munitions Handbook.

Kropotkin and Bakunin and Czolgosz are pretty cool but "propaganda of the deed*" really isn't a good idea any more.

*here I mean targeted assassination, which is not what that originally referred to (exclusively) but is often how it is used

>>8382239
>"propaganda of the deed*" really isn't a good idea any more.

I would argue that it isn't so much of an idea as it is a description of psychology. When you see others acting out, you are more inclined to act out yourself. See spree shooters and ISIS for reference.

C'mon you filthy cunts, you aught to know something.

>become well read enough/discerning enough that you can tell the good from the bad
>work your way into writers circles and look into their work
>once you stumble upon something good steal the work and kill the writer claiming it as your own

Alternatively you could just cultivate your talent and with some little hard work write your own without looking for some advice from the hacks on here who are going to offer you nothing constructive.

Look at existing scripts you like and write yours in a similar fashion

literature is not a good medium for surrealism

>>8382154
I don't care, I'm gonna read some of these.

where the fuck can i find goddamn edition 69

>>8382136
It's a very interesting book written about a boring man. I highly recommend it actually.

I don't know about over or underrated but I sure enjoyed it and would recommend it.
the prose isn't anything special but it has a very nice atmosphere, prepare for FEELS.

>>8382136
wtf i hate stoner now

>Green tea
Good choice.
>coffee
Good choice.

I would go with some herbal tea, like ginkgo tea. Maybe hard liquor.

>>8382093
How das hard liquor help? Now I'm really interested in trying it out.
