Will reading aloud turn me into a mouth breather with a receding chin? I've tried it recently and I always end up taking breaths with my mouth and I'm really scared about the receding chin thing
>>25088922Personally I just stopped caring. I live in a bubble because I choose to.
>>25088922Are you an adult? If yes, any posture change will be superficial and not structural (the damage is done while growing), do whatever you want then lift weights to retain/correct posture.
>>25088922You're chin doesn't recede from mouth-breathing after puberty. That happens during growth
>>25088922Did you deliberately choose the stock photo with the most aggressively jewish looking creature you could find?
She's not a good writer and her criticisms are mostly informed by her social/political views, and I say that as someone who agrees with her.
>>25081859Most of that is sensory information and then moving the plot by asking where the smell comes from. Thats fine writing to me. It seems like a bad choice to use a block about smells as representative
>>25082009Women and hollywood need to be told that it is antifem if the only way to make a strong female character is by putting men down/being a henpecker or by being a dude.
>>25082931You can look at a published romantasy book and distill it down to script-lit. Its all about hypnotic inductions and using the smut as rewards. You tease sex scenes to maximize dopamine. You use cliches to reduce friction
>>25089444I have no faith in modern writers, left or right. What makes you think future writers will be any better?
>>25089444the man who controls the court, the legislature & the executive branch wants you to believe he's punk rock. the man who controls the satellite network & the communications platform believed it so hard he bought the megaphone. & you believed both of them. gorgeous. counterculture gets produced when the winning becomes unbearable, not when you hold a position & call it rebellion. right now the unbearable isn't wokeness. wokeness is a corporate HR seminar & everybody knows it. what comes after is the weird left, the xenofeminist demand that if biology is destiny then destiny should be hacked, queer nihilism that looks at the gender binary & treats it like a user interface for a program nobody consented to run. THAT makes both sides recoil. MAGA makes one side cheer & one side grieve. electoral politics, not art.& truly where your argument eats itself: counterculture has almost never produced great art. beats made one poem & forty years of bad novels. futurists were formally exciting & morally catastrophic & their aesthetics led directly to state propaganda. punk produced three good albums & a clothing line. what actually produces great art is obsessive formal discipline meeting private vision under whatever conditions happen to be present. dickens serialized for the middle class & built the english novel's conscience out of sentiment & fog. eliot worked at lloyds & was a monarchist & wrote the central poem of modernism between anxiety attacks. kafka filed insurance claims in prague & never published most of what he made. dostoevsky was an orthodox conservative who thought the west was demonic & proved it with the greatest novel your board has ever worshipped. mccarthy lived in el paso motels & spoke to nobody & wrote blood meridian. none of these people were counterculture. every one of them is in your canon. they were ungovernable inside their own syntax, not inside a political movement.conservative "art" being made right now (& i use the word with compassion) is decoration. classical realism revival, tradcath iconography, retvrn memes as aesthetic program. nostalgia objects. nostalgia presupposes that the best form already existed & merely needs recollection. opposite of making art. inheritance cosplaying as creation.dark woke is the counterculture because it has no audience. it makes the left uncomfortable & the right furious & the center confused. that's the test. not "who's being censored" (everybody claims censorship now; it's a currency) but who's saying something that cannot be absorbed. the thing that can't be sold back to you.
Which romance language(s) is(are) worth learning in your humble opinion?
>>25084004Once Gypsies hear you speak Romanian, you will become untouchable becauce they will consider you too poor for robbery
>>25088499>Gypsies*Romani
>>25088499>>25088919what’s the difference between romanian and romani?
Italian.
>>25089460-an
Blood Meridian is about the horrors of white supremacy and American imperialism
>>25083322Half of those are old PSL memes
>>25087397Right. And it is the most basic mammalian instinct for every group to see their group predominate. Let's just be honest. The question is really just the details. Just because of this, doesn't mean total outgroup genocide or anything. We can be civilized about it.
>>25082674>>25087342Whites were the worse party, they were the aggressors and invaders. They also had absolutely no interest in cohabiting with the Indians, instead viewing them as pests who were in the way - needing to be exterminated or driven out.
>>25082221FATALITY. They literally have no counter argument about this. And keep in mind these are the same people who want to ban pitbulls because a tiny little fraction of kids will get mauled, but they then want you to think of them as these badasses who face the "real world".
>>25089499It's so dumb and wrong it's not even in missile range.First of all, Republicans! = chuds. You are conflating the twoSecond of all the idea of engineering violence or human nature out of the population is absolutely a left wing idea. ie New Soviet Man
What's the first book you read in French?

This is the single greatest book I've read. Yet every review of this book talks about bullshit like fascism and militarism. This book centres on a single question that grows louder through the book:>Am I my brother's keeper?Is it your job to make sure other people are safe and happy? If it isn't, who else will do it?Unironically the best book I've read.
>>25088708
>>25086634I haven't read it since I was young, mainly what I remember about it was how amazingly dry it was, especially for a book about space Marines in robot armor fighting giant bugs.
>>25087404take any heinlein text and reverse the gendersit's hilarious
>>25089122Verhoeven literally did not read the book, man.
>>25089436And you believe that? Come on, don't be so dumb. It's sprezzatura to wave away the anxiety of influence. The book is a three hour long YA novel.
>refers specifically to one persontime to retire this nonsense, don't you agree?
>>25080576Right? I'm so tired of this nonsense the nonbinary narcissists push like they've outsmarted you. >someone left this bag behind. I bet they'll come back for itFine >I saw a woman accidentally walk off without her bag. I bet they'll come back for it. Not fineSimple as.
>>25083402qt!!!!!!!top 5 authors?
>>25083094Yes and you still don't see me using we/us individually
>in everyday life, they and their are going the way of you in the 18th century. The pronoun you was once regarded as a plural, the singular forms being thou (nominative) and thee (objective). Gradually, beginning in the 1300s, you came to be regarded as alternatively singular or plural.
i'll just leave this here
Idk, I like camels and would appreciate if anyone could give me some titles of good book about camels.
The Fearful Void by Geoffrey Moorehouse is a riot of a book. Not sure if camels come out as the good guys in the end though.
Op isn't a faggot on this one guys
>>25084383>Camels Over the Sierra Nevada, Durlynn Anema
I was just reading about camels a few days ago, don't remember why but I read through the various wiki entries and bunch of other stuff.
Chingiz Atmatov’s 'The Day Lasts More Than a Hundred Years' heavily features a camel and, in general, Kazakh/Kyrgyz steppe camel culture.
Suicide is abolished by all means and is considered the ultimate sin by all religions (Except some sects of Gnostic religions), But have you ever asked why is it abolished?My answer is that as Mainlander's theory formulated that God commited suicide through the big bang and Spinoza formulated that god is just attribute and modes of the same substance (even though he didn't state it the same way as Mainlander) and Schopenhauer stated that there is a will-to-live that keeps consuming everything on its path but he pussied out by stating that we should only abstain whereas Mainlander commited suicide to prove that's the only solution for the Will-to-Death, Like a Whale that explodes vehemently in its death, We are like that.So suicide is to become like god and to kill yourself.
>>25082926I am god
>>25082772t. Kirilov
>>25082772If suicide makes you a god that that means our universe is full of teenage drama queen gods who accidentally OD'd while trying to get attention, and edgy school shooters like that tranny from Canada. Suddenly the universe makes sense for being so broken and evil.
>>25088642Would you shoot this person in the face if he asked? Not really, right? But it's okay for you to instigate his death through here because you are a coward and your life has no meaning other than trying to look cool around a bunch of anonymous people on the internet.
>>25082772Mainlander and Zappfe got it right.

Which book saved (you) from being a tranny anon ?
imagine needing to be saved from being a tranny by reading a book, lmao, what happened to men, why are you so fragile, don't you have masculine figures in your life

>>25084164>the fact the covenant with God is still in effectUtterly false. This is a heresy.>It seriously must be some kind of psychosis brought upon by being terminally online and brainrotted by the culture warFalse. It's Biblical, and has been the teaching since the time of the Apostles, and reaffirmed by the Councils. The fact that you are ignorant of this is an indication of your brainrot because the teaching has been repeated daily for the last 2000 years.The Catholic Church dogmatically declared at the Council of Florence that to observe the Mosaic Law after the promulgation of the Gospel is a mortal sin and those who do are alien to the Christian faith and face eternal damnation (pic related).The ceremonies of the Old Law pointed to Christ. To observe them after the promulgation of the gospel is to deny indeed that Christ has come and fulfilled them, as St. Thomas Aquinas has pointed out:>“...the ceremonies of the Old Law foreshadowed Christ as having yet to be born and to suffer: whereas our sacraments signify Him as already born and having suffered. Consequently, just as it would be a mortal sin now for anyone, in making a profession of faith, to say that Christ is yet to be born, which the fathers of old said devoutly and truthfully; so too it would be a mortal sin now to observe those ceremonies which the fathers of old fulfilled with devotion and fidelity. Such is the teaching Augustine (Contra Faust. Xix, 16)...”Summa Theologica, Pt. I-II, Q. 103, A. 4>universalist religionCorrect. The Catholic Church is Christ's one universal Church.
