I like him for some reason in spite of the Reddit factor. I think he is a secret disciple of Nick Land.

fpbp.

CGP Grey explains complicated things well in quality presentations. Sure, he's adored by Reddit but being accessible isn't an aesthetic crime. Unless you're an autist from 4chan, of course.

Taking this opportunity to plug one of my favorite youtube channels, Ahoy, and his excellent Iconic Arms series:

Is Psychoanalysis a science? If so, what kind of research can we develop?

psychoanalysis is not a science. Freud never referred to it as being a form of science, rather it was a field he pursued because of a deadlock of certain scientific approaches to understanding the mind. then again, the idea that only scientific fields can have some truth value is an anglo delusion, and, as with all anglo delusions, it must be purged swiftly from the brain before it develops into full-blown autism

Never trust a white man,
Never kill a Jew,
Never sign a contract,
Never rent a pew.
Don't enlist in armies;
Nor marry many wives;
Never write for magazines;
Never scratch your hives.
Always put paper on the seat,
Don't believe in wars,
Keep yourself both clean and neat,
Never marry whores.
Never pay a blackmailer,
Never go to law,
Never trust a publisher,
Or you'll sleep on straw.
All your friends will leave you
All your friends will die
So lead a clean and wholesome life
And join them in the sky.

I've been getting into philosophy, and I decided to start with the Pre-Socratics. I've got books on Heraclitus, Parmenids,Empedocles and a book on early greek philosophy and the sophists. Yet i can't find this book fucking anywhere.

Does anyone have a file, or a copy they're willing to scan?

Also, check out Shelley's Promethius Unbound. Like Milton's Samson Agonistes and Wilde's Salome, remarkably straightforward and clear.
They both were right, anon. It all pends whose side youre on.

So my girlfriend has trouble sleeping and it helps her if I tell her a bedtime story. Sometimes I just make it up and sometimes I take inspirations from other films and books I can recall. They have to be short, happy ending and sort of calming. We are both in our twenties. If anyone has any suggestions or their own original stories I would be very thankful<3

Hello /lit/, I need some books for these 3 weeks, I have an important exam coming and since it looks like I'm an inmature faggot who can't stop procrastinating I uninstalled all my videogames and banned al the dumb webpages on Chrome, so I'll just study, lift and read these days. Basically some fun enough books that keep me motivated and encourage me to be a better person. Thanks.

Hey guys, I'm wondering if any of you know some good places to find textbooks.

I'm trying to find:
Foundations of Mathematics with Geometry, Trigonometry and Statistics
ISBN: 9781927737125

I haven't been able to find it, the closest I got was http://paperbackstation.net/quirky/foundations-of-mathematics-with-geometry-trigonometry-and-statistics-none.php but I guess they closed their registration so I cant get the link to download it. And ideas anons?
