Is Bronze Age Mindset the most relevant work of contemporary philosophy?
>>23398092>inb4 le broof?Fibiger paper out on that, looking at violent deaths on skeletons. Theres also weapon findings comparatively by culture in rich gravesDid I also mention how the more steppe dna a culture had the more niggertier underdeveloped it was and had poor elites? Meanwhile neolithic dudes invented slavery and used it for jobs involving mercury poisoning. Meanwhile steppe people were borderline egalitarian in comparison (they werent, but they were far less dynastic and stratified)On top of that there was a paper on height: average eef 170, average yamnaya 175Now another one is out, and there is no height difference at all. In fact iron age is SHORTER than neolithic europe.JFL

>>23373718Vitruvian AKA Vitru VN @arcaderapist mogged this kike to death. BAP is in the same clique as Alaric the Salaryman, just another urbanite faggot pretending to be sophisticated and edgy, in reality he's coping for his failed middle aged life
>>23391649Sad, I actually kinda liked Zero HP Lovecraft. Don't care about the rest. Anyways has anyone heard from Mike Ma lately? What's he up to these days?
>>23397646BAP and his goons don’t funnel people into Zionism for the most part honestly, they just funnel people into homosexuality and Instagram consumer culture in the name of being right wing

>Zebra’s can’t be domesticated because blacks couldn’t do it, so therefore white Europeans only became successful because of their geography!
>>23398844Forgot pic
>>23397893btw, this is a very badly painted horse
>>23397755He's right though. Europeans only became successful because they were lucky to be born in an environment that provides them all the resources they need to survive all year round. Europe, especially northern Europe, has an overabundance of resources like snow and ice which gave Europeans an unfair advantage over Africa.
>evolution stopped at the neck because well ummmm it just did okayone day we'll look back on this era the same way we today look at lobotomies and geocentrism

Are you a fraud if you use an LLM to help with plots/characters/names/ect?
>>23398643yesthe blackpill is realizing that fraudsters make it further in life than those making honest attempts
>>23398643>ect
>>23398643No because it's like having an editor beside you.However if you use it to write the whole manuscript, then you're a fraud.
>>23398643youre a fraud if your character names have ever existed before
its certainly soulless. imagine asking someone the reason for their career and they just say "i asked a robot and it told me what to do".
who here reads aloud books?
What do aloud books look like joker anon?
>>23398246fags, probably
>>23398236Occasionally I will. It’s a good workout to help with articulation.
>>23398246only at Miller Grove
>>23398236"Aloud" is in the wrong position here. It's an adverb so it shouldn't come between the verb and the object but rather at the end of the question.
Post /lit/ charts. I'll start.

Might be a bit of a stretch, but does anyone have recommended reading for the theory/implementation/history of night-watchman states?
Made this on /mu/ a while ago, guess it'd fit here as well.Anyone know how to update the wiki?
Any cute and funny charts?
Does anyone have a NRx read order chart? Cool alternative: Nickland read order.
Read this last year, gave it a 7.5 out of 10. Great contribution to the Cyberpunk genre, cool concepts that I borrowed for my own writing purposes. Cool story as well, the narrative on how the (((elites))) are and will always be a bunch of pedos is reflective of the current world. Great mind-bending network sci-fi, like connecting your brain to a camera and seeing through it, getting trapped in cyberspace and slowly fading away, hacking people's tec and killing them with brutal viruses, self-inserting your conscious into an artificial body for sexual gratification (trans people's wet dream (probably something that will happen in the future)) and lots of other great shit that I love. If you haven't read it and are a fan of Cyberpunk, highly recommend, also probably has one of the coolest cover ever.
>>23398471shit book, shit thread kill yourself OP
>>23398471If Zelazny gives it such a blurb it's probably good

Can anyone truly be a postmodernist? It seems to me that those who use postmodern rhetoric, just want to replace the current modernist structures with their own. They might even hold a linear view of history, which culminates in the liberation of "opressed" groups. This leads me to believe that its all a big psyop to force our compliance. Any books for this?
I AM LE WACKY IRONIC SELF AWARE GUY WHO DOESN'T BELIEVE IN A GRAND NARRATIVE BUT WE NEED TO LIBERATE LE OPPRESSED A CATEGORY I CANNOT ADEQUATELY DEFINE NOR CAN I ASCRIBE A MORAL IMPETUS FOR THAT CAUSE AS I DENY A GRAND NARRATIVE AND RUN AWAY INTO MORAL RELATIVISM AND DENY ANY ESSENCE TO ANYTHING BUT HERE'S WHY WE NEED TO DO THIS LEFT WING POLITICAL THING BECAUSE I JUST REALLY REALLY LIKE POOPY SHAMEFUL BUTT SEX BUT DON'T WANT IT TO BE SHAMEFUL I DECONSTRUCT YOU NUTHIN PERSONELL *obscurantism*
>>23397235Good summary and thanks for the reminder that postmodernism is total garbage nonsense(most of it).
>>23397773Masterpiece.
>>23397217modernism was namedbefore pre-modernism
>>23397773>Uses moral relativism as a crutch>Actually advocates for moral imperialism Accurate
Are there any?
>>23393867Which novel would you recommend to start with?
>>23395575good answer
>>23387961Childhood's End has certain beats in that vein. I explicitly read it due to the similar themes to NGE, and it didn’t lesve me disappointed.

>Before the publication of his first novel, Becker-Green earned double-major in art history and Finance from Dartmouth University, followed by an MBA from the University of Pennsylvania. At 26, he launched the Brideshead Fund and raised $150 million to invest in distressed sovereign debt. Following the funds dissolution after earning an annualized return of 66% for seven years, Becker-Green purchased a sailboat, a 50 wooden-hulled yawl, which he named Shoshanna. While living aboard he completed a series of novellas, which he chose not to publish. His novel, Blackwatch, was written in a few weeks while anchored off Split, Croatia in a "whirlwind of inspiration.">Becker-Green credits his artistic side to his parents. His father was a screenwriter who became a broadcasting executive and his mother was a painter who often sent poems and watercolors to family and friends. Becker-Green considers himself "retired from earning money" and intends to donate any proceeds from writing to historical preservation related charities.
You financially illiterate pseuds are missing the whole sovereign debt fund angle. Investing in distressed sov. debt is like on the most morally reprehensible things you can do.
The idea is that you have kids and try to give them what you didn't have. Then they grow up and try to give their kids what they didn't have, and so on forever. Your only option is to give yourself to the next generation even if it seems futile.
>>23398620This makes sense if your kids will inherit a world worth living in, but they won’t, anymore. Anyone with children who isn’t more focused on progressivism/leftism than material comfort is damning their own offspring.
>>23398493Books on this concept? I’m curious.
>>23398990No books off the top of my head, but from professional experience I can explain that it involves buying government bonds of failed/failing states or states and war and then using coercion (which can range from repossessing the state's assets to in some cases actively funding rebel movements/coups) to force the repayment of the bonds. There is a softer side to it, such as helping the countries stabilize and develop and get the loans repaid that way, but it's such a morally dubious venture that I'd be very suspicious of any firm undertaking it, even if they claim to doing it the ethical way.
What are some books with this feeling?
>get trickle of matches on dating apps>get drunk>change bio to something deliberately obnoxious and misogynistic >get more matches
>>23398399>this feelingleftist mental illness?
>>23398713Maybe because they promote your profile if you've been inactive for a while and then update your profile, to try to get you hooked back in.
>>23398399Is this meme the best the jidf can do?
I am actually coming frighteningly close to this position.I don't want to go around accusing others of sin but as a virgin and a loser I really do think it's in my best interest to embrace religion.If I only have to masturbate once a month or so I could with prayer manage to go down to only once in 6 months and perhaps I could eradicate masturbation forever.
Condition: Good!*
>>23398808It's like I'm reading with him...
My copy of Xenophon's Anabasis and History is literally stamped with the original owner's name. Like at the top, side and bottom, and then at certain pages as well. What a weird guy.
>>23398766hahaha
I think you should complainThis is not good condition at all
Have a used copy of Dead Souls coming next week. Wish me luck, bros.
>J-Just read Infinite Jest, bro!11!!!1!
IJ is super overrated but not so bad if you read it quick. Pale King far and away the guy’s best fiction. Wish folks weren’t so horny for his word jizz
Millennials are the only group of people in the world who will look at Rube Goldberg machines and be like "I'm above doing this."

I looked at the thumbnail of your webm and half hoped that it would be a video of someone killing themselves with a microwave.
