Women are allowed this lifestyle because men are cursed to wrestle with their own lust daily.It was a man that gave them the right to vote and study, and a man that enabled her to be a degenerate.

I've had a lot of girls be overly touchy with me but I know for a fact that they don't see me romantically. Its an odd feeling but its nice to be touched sometimes.
>>24950898yeah they say babies will die if they’re not touched enough. thinking the same goes for adults.

How do you learn to philosophize? I read philosophy books but i never learn to philosophize. I never learn to use those fancy words like epistomoleogoogy; i only learn what they kinda mean but i never have a sure feeling of it and have to look it up all the time. Is philosophy only for high iq people? I feel utterly lost so much so i don't even bother to talk about it with other people.
scientific hobby doesn't help, because scientists seek special cases and exceptions to prove a general rule.A philosopher does not look for special cases, he is already baffled by the most mundane everyday observations. Fake philosophers try to imitate this by "challenging status quo". But the real thaumazein is pure and innocent perplexity, without hidden political objectives. Inb4 muh Nietzsche, muh everybody has hidden will to power subconsciously pre-selecting his new concepts. If that was the case, no original philosophies would exist. They are rare, but not inexistent.If you aren't naturally perplexed by everyday reality, don't try to philosophize, simple as

>>24946724>human calculatorWhat do you "calculate" when proving that the union of any set of open sets is open? Or that every bounded sequence of reals has a convergent subsequence? Math is the interrogation of the properties of mathematical structures using reason, which is something you (hopefully) also use when studying philosophy >Mechanical descriptions are not philosophyIt is for most employed philosophers, but you are partially right. If you aren't really interested in logic or rigor you can safely ignore it, much like how the rest of the world can safely ignore you
>>24946724Socrates made a distinction between pure mathematics and applied mathematics, it is the oldest distinction of them I've come across, Socrates has a bit of disdain for the human calculator while the pure mathematics elevates the soul to truth and philosophy

>>24949373Be cool, George! You can still pull this off.
>>24949373Keep going bro, make it about enjoying the books, not ticking boxes. I had a reading list this year that I'm on target to finish, but I don't give a fuck how many were on it, and I felt free to drop one book that was shit.
>>24949373>finished 10 books in the first 3 months of the year>started House of Leaves in April>still haven't finished it>only read 4 or 5 other books in the meantimeidk what the fuck happened bros, one of those "in the meantime" books was IJ and I read it in only a week
I read 97 books this year. But I also abandoned twice that many after a few pages. If a book doesn't grab you by the end of Chapter 1 it makes no sense to keep reading. It's not like the author kept the best for the last few pages.
>>24949373>43 books readAnd I read only 1-2 hours everyday. Feels gud man
>...and then Bilbo whispered to a thrush, a particularly old thrush perched on the mountain, mind you, who conveyed the message of Smaug's missing scale to Bard, who was very good with a bow, you see, and then Bard shot Smaug with the black arrow, which was a very special arrow, forged by the dwarves under the mountain long ago, which instantly killed Smaug!GRRM's autistic edgelord criticisms of Gandalf are nothing compared to this bullshit. If a modern author wrote this slop he would be thrown into a pit and torn apart by apes.

>>24948327It's right there on the page that it's an ancient arrow forged by the Dwarves of Erebor and Bard's of the royal bloodline of Dale and proficient with a great yew bow. Seems more than sufficiently set apart a random man with a random arrow.
>If there is a danger, it lies in the Negro music and dancing that has been imported into Europe. This music has completely won over a whole section of the cultured population of Europe, to the point of real fanaticism. It is inconceivable that the incessant repetition of the Negroes’ physical gestures as they dance around their fetishes or that the constant sound of the syncopated rhythm of jazz bands should have no ideological effects.Was unc spittin fax here?
>>24950836Only the truly enlightened. This belief is not found in the mind of the average joe.
>>24950751But Songs with a clear consistent rhythm existed all across the globe and all across human time. Medieval celebratory music was also centered on the rhythm.

>>249464534channite reading the Atlantic as an attempt to make himself "serious" politically after decades of semi-anonymously denigrating niggers and muzzies online. He realizes at the age of 30 (or higher!) that Jewish supremacy is the realization of his infantile racial holy war fantasies.Is there anything gayer than a wignat becoming a YIMBY? Most people would respect you more if you remained a stormfag. Every single one of you ends up looking like a small-souled pederast (see Richard Hanania).
>>24950864>if you read a magazine you agree with everything it publishes
Is there anything like this idea?I want to make an app that you pick from a list of like 256 characters, and then you create a custom group of like 6 of them, and then you select like a fantasy year of the calendar.And the app basically generates using their astrological birth dates, numerology and chinese zodiac of their birth dates.And the app generates a sort of basic chapter of some pages.But I don't mean a VN.I mean a final text is composed from hand crafted sentences.

>>24950087If you want to write something, then do it yourself. It is the most pathetic to want AI do it for you.And because we are in /lit/ have a quote from Plato that obliterates AI completely and utterly:>For all body which has its source of motion outside itself is soulless, whereas that which has it within itself, from itself, is ensouled, this being nature of soul, and if this is the way it is - that that which moves itself is nothing other than soul - then soul will ncessesarily bw something that neither comes into being nor dies.
>>24949442No it's not. It's an explanation of why people become ideologically possessed and the rotten fruit such bears.
>>24949723Their values are ultimately just Christianity after people stopped being able to take the Bible seriously. Justin Martyr even asserted that Jesus was exceptionally ugly. Christianity is about taking holiness and making it synonymous with weak, oppressed, downtrodden, penurious, and making evil synonymous with the Prince of this World, powers, principalities, the Whore of Babylon (Rome, Babylon).

I use calibre. Reading anywhere but on a desktop computer is cause for distraction.
>>24950783I love to read in nature when it's sunny and in bed when it's winter. I used to read behind my desk using calibre as well but I notice I read way more now that I have an ereader because it's just more convenient. Also I never expected this but the epaper screens are genuinely adding a lot of value. The "print" quality is higher than actual paper books and it looks indistinguishable to paper. I can never go back to reading from a lcd monitor or oled phone screen.Physical books are cumbersome to hold for extended periods of time and I usually read 4 - 5 books at the same time (one non fiction history, one non fiction about a specific field or interest, a fiction guilty pleasure book, some genre fiction and some genuine classic literature) I won't be carrying an entire backpack filled with books with me wherever I go.

>>24949415>another draftAnon…
>>24950537I've had a concept for like 2 years but no larger story to tie it into, then I randomly thought of another element that would make it a whole story one day, and I've combined those with older concepts that I've had in mind for some time and have drafted scenes and short stories around. I have a lot of scenes and storylines in my head I want to hit, so since I have a base my main process is kind of riffing off the parts I've set in play and building towards major scenes, a lot of improv mixed with following a very rough outline that I have in my head. In my edit or rewrite or whatever I plan on really streamlining everything
>>24948774>119.5k words>roughly 15k left>no progress since AugustI'm supposed to get back to it next week once my finals are over, but I still have no idea how I'm gonna end this thing.
>>24948774I was just thinking about getting back into writing since the holiday season is upon us. But at least you started something. What I am going to try is just do short works. Rather than trying to do a magnum opus which will never happen until far in the future. I also always sputter off around 50k words anyway.
