Stop posting shit and create something already, Jesus.

bro im writing a lesbian ghost story, as long as you're making something you'll only get better. write something you want other people to know about, and do it as much as you can

>I am an EE
a what?

I love you. What does that mean? It clearly means something deep, something profound. It’s clearly a feeling, some sort of higher geometry. Space, and time, are these structures. They are static and unchanging. So why do I see change?

Change is experience. Change is everything. I say I like changes. I say I want change. But do I really? You have to realize that everything you wanted is here, right in front of you. You would know that if you had the proper memories. But you don’t, and you wanted that too. You wanted to forget about what happened and how it used to be. Don’t you remember??????

Of course not. You’re bounded by your own biology. It’s nice, living in ignorance. You spend a lot of time thinking about the big questions. But as far out as you choose to go, you must go equally inward, otherwise your being will become unbalanced.

For each part of the truth you receive, you must also experience the complimentary part of the life. They go hand in hand. Each experience, each moment, that is the way.

I am not waiting, even if it feels like I am. There is no such thing as waiting.

I just want to touch you again. Feel you again. That’s all I ask. For right now, that’s all I can say.

I miss you.

Your lips around my cock, my short breaths. The sound of saliva dripping on the ground.

These are real, because I perceive them to be. I feel your luscious mouth tenderly massaging my manly member, I know this is happening, because I have received many fellatio´s before.

My rectum is tensing up as I read this post, becoming aware of what I was ignorant of just a second before. But what does a second mean, if that second is not spent on having a twink playing with your balls?

Is my brain playing a trick on me?

Perfect

Shit

in other words, at least 62 out of 100 titles had only one person mention them

Discarded.

Ludwig is so based and crazy.

City of Saints and Madmen

1. Read "The Ridiculous Man" (short story) also by Dostoevsky

2. Rad "Notes From The Underground" by Dostoevsky (novella)

3. Read "Hunger" by Knut Hamsun

4. Read "No Longer Human" by Omazu Dazai

5. Rad "Welcome to the NHK" by [Japanese author]

All short. All comfy.

>>8237463
Thanks, already in the middle of "Notes From The Underground".
Just wondering, how is "No Longer Human" compared to "Run Melos" (if you read it ofc, also by Dazai)
Lastly, I have started with the NHK anime a while back, but i dropped it because, well I don't even know... So should I pick up the anime again or is the novel much better?

>So should I pick up the anime again or is the novel much better?
I am not the guy you are replying to but the Welcome to the NHK is a very good novel. The anime absolutely pales in comparison. It also removes certain taboo content and makes weird little arbitrary changes that do nothing but significantly lessen the impact of the work.

He looks like one of the Thunderbirds characters.

Piketty is a hack, his works were literally found to have wrong data in them, ie. falsified research.
So much about that bumblefuck.

>>8239138
He had a single transcription error other than that the data points that were criticized were clearly a matter of taste. More importantly the difference between the two proposed choices had no discernible effect on the validity of the trends.

I doubt it. He got his revenge and gets to bang his slave princess so what would he regret? Not getting back together with Mercedes?

He did kill that guy.

In the sense 4chan uses the phrase? No.
Actually? Yes.

Of course he did.

>>8237270
I doubt it's been filmed well yet.

the Gregory Peck one is kinda slow and the special effects are very dated

the William Hurt one is full of extraneous stuff where some hack screenwriter decided to improve upon Melville and add stuff

only seen the two and they were both shit

none, but tell us

Episode "Homesteading the Noosphere” explicitly stated by the writer to be a reference to the concept called … Noosphere.

Personally, i think it is beautiful. The small good that came from such a vicious and destructive event.

Most of it is simple and quite forgettable, but poignant at the same time. I have the Penguin Anthology of First World War Poetry and I have probably read through it two or three times.

>>8237093
Love it
Sassoon; the general, counter attack, syicide in the trenches and his prose works memoirs of a fox hunting man and diary of an infantry officer
Owen: a terre, the last laugh
Frankau: voices of the guns
Graves; goodbye to all that

A review system so I can see the opinions of plebs and YA readers in their 30s.

A filtering system where patricians don't notice pleb activity.

Are you trying to make Goodreads 2 or what?

I have an idea for a website but I wanted to hear other suggestions to improve it!

>>8237066
I'm hurrying


Asimov does this, two characters talking in a sterile setting, but those ideas explored might not interest you.

Cormac McCarthy's Sunset Limited

I think Beckett does these. Waiting for Goddard, no?

Other playwrights...

I really do recommend Walter Pater's Marius the Epicurean for a passive stroll through ancient Rome discussing philosophy.

>>8237086
>Cormac McCarthy's Sunset Limited
bit more dramatic but a good suggestion

>>8237086
That Beckett play is generally referred to as "Waiting for Godot," not Goddard.

>VICE
Nope. Vice, Vox, Fox News, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, Stephen Colbert and all the meme tier American media needs to go.

>>8237058
Does this man live for anything else other that having his picture taken?

>>8237121
And what are the alternatives?
