This thread is so anthropocentric, so up its own arse with pretentious, edgy philosophy.
What that said, I made a thread about why /lit/ enjoys reading and I mentioned that I was more of a natural history sort of person.Let's talk about nature, environmental science, essays, etc. Tldr, there's more to life than angst. Humans are just one species.
What has /lit/ been reading?
No extreme left hippy stuff please. Just science, travel writing and essays.

I need to proof read.

Is /lit/ really not interested in anything outside the human sphere? Ecology? Geology? Biology?

I like George R Stewart's Earth Abides a lot. It's cozy and it has humanity being put in its place by nature.
I don't know a lot of fiction that deals with the non-anthropocentric view. Some of those speculative realists praise Lovecraft, Thomas Ligotti and other horror writers for imagining it, but aside from those.

To be honest, the thread isn't really for non-fiction, but good recommendation.
