Been avoiding social media the last few days and reading Katabasis by R.F Kuang and I can't stop thinking about later parts of the book.
The main character, Alice, studying at Cambridge, at a certain point, is essentially abused and groomed by her proffessor. She consequently blames her attire, her attitude, as she wants to be respected as a Scholar and as A Woman. So she dresses in a pretty but professional manner - which she still views as her being a slut. However, due to perpetual misogyny within academia, she is scandalized because to be a woman wanting power tends to be seen as sexual.

And I mean its true from my experiences, from my SA, where men i respected, i looked up to did, and ones who I managed to avoid shunned me out of work.

How does one, in society as it stands, gain respect while tending to be denigrated as a consequence of gender?

Like with the other women in my career field, the same thing happens. Any woman who expresses too mucj femininity is ostracized.

The world is a temporary blip of suffering no matter what you do and everything is pointless.

Imagine eternity behind you and eternity ahead of you. This earth is nothing more than the dancing of clay puppets in a drama.

Who cares about exerting effort for anything. Live life like a drug addict with everything as a blur then die.

Do you not want legacy? To accomplish anything in your life?
Are you just gonna sit there in the goddamn hotel room cuck chair?
I fucking hate nihlists.

legacy dies in 1/100,000th of the time it takes for the mountain to turn into sand, and even if it didn't, would be dead to you anyways after you are gone.
Accomplishments are only for the purpose of the feeling they extract in the very moment of now.

I'm going to do whatever I want, and what I want to do is drugs.
