What the fuck is this? Some sort of Town of Salem irl roleplay set in some tiny town's hipster/artsy scene?

If you're talking about England/Britian they seriously suck ass with the exception of a handful of poets. Ireland on the other hand, is a country that can compete with Russia

>>9852949
Living in Russia is suffering and the turbulence makes a great setting.

>some asshat made a shitty book involving 4chan
Who cares.

People have been trying to cash in on 4chan fame for over a decade and these days anyone can self-publicize a book through Amazon.

Luciferianism is much more interesting than Satanism IMO, especially with the magical elements in LaVeyan Satanism.

This is the go to, but try to understand each section without it.

If you don't like the story, what do the details matter? Or are you one of those people that believes fiction contains important life lessons? Like you see novelists as oracles?

If a novelist has something important to say, they're not gonna risk having it misunderstood or hidden. They'll let you know what they're talking about.

Pynchon has nothing important to say. Enjoy the ride if you can.

Perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. I figured someone here would have it.

>>9852762
Interesting questions. With the other Pynchon books I've read, I enjoy his prose and thought-provoking tangents, but I often get a kind of anxiety as though I might be missing some important detail. I'm beginning to see that this is intentional on some level, on Pynchon's part. But having a chapter summary to "review" the important details of the chapter just makes his writing a little more enjoyable for me.

this huge pile of pillows and shit. Anything you can sink into.

One time, I sat in a love seat that cost 300 dollars. I wanted to buy it immediately, It was... perfection. Sadly, I didn't have the room. When I do tho, that's gonna be my first thing I buy. A nice fucking seat.

Also interested. It's not on bibliotik.

Ah it's on #bookz.

Interesting thinking. You might also be interested in a Schmitt thread that happened a while ago. If the thread is still up when I get back I'll go ahead and post the link to that.

>>9852662
Doesn´t seem to be up anymore. Yeah, i also read the "political theology" by schmitt and some book about it.

>>9852676
I was talking about finding it if this particular thread is still up. Of course the other one is down. Just check the archiving site if you are curious. If not I'll try and post it later in the day.

Sleep consistently the same hours.
Eat well and exercise.
Engage in active rather than passive activities in your down time.
Change your cultural habits to suit the ends you wish to achieve not tomorrow, but five years from today.

Learn about technological determinism.

Read books on different subjects that you're interested in and practice coding chunks of information into symbols or narratives.

Read, review what you think you know, reread, question what you thought and look for instances which brought about this understanding. Then reread.

Look into extending your working memory.

Learn simple mathematics.
Learn to play an instrument.
Learn to draw or paint.

Learn to integrate your seething subconscious into things outside of yourself. Study them and their relationship to the part of you that is paying attention.

Don't destroy your painting and stab yourself in the heart. Persist, negate, worship the moments when you are clear headed, pay attention to yourself, and cultivate gratitude towards your capacity to reason.

>>9852200

Thank you very much. Could you expand on extend the working memory? How to do it?

Also, I have learned simple mathematics, have been playing music for the past 10 years and have been accepted into an art academy for painting.

Also, please expand upon this: "Learn to integrate your seething subconscious into things outside of yourself. Study them and their relationship to the part of you that is paying attention. "

>>9852095
I've solved it by pushing through. There is no magical tip, you just need to consistently sit down for two hours and read. Don't do anything other than go to the bathroom if you need to. That's it, just do it.

So Jewish academics proposed critical views of western society / enlightenment in the context of the Holocaust? You don't say.
