i have 2 sisters, one who molested me a lot when i was 7 or so and another who was just annoying as fuck.
i have no want to fuck either of them, incest is just hot. especially when the girl is cute and anime.

>i don't want to have sex with my actual family I'm not brown
Incest is an Aryan-Romantic duty to preserve the purity of the bloodline, though. The worship of the Self involves marrying your cousin, also a part of you.

Very little in Harry Potter is original. I wouldn't say she created it. She more arranged a bunch of ideas that already existed, and not even obscure ones.

She's rich enough that she doesn't give a shit, and isn't going to be bullied by Discord and Tumblr kiddies.

I have had similar experiences to yours, these "meaningful coincidences". While it's interesting to wonder if they are signs of something deep and mystical, like rips in the seams of reality, it may just as easily be chalked up to the human mind's tendency to narrativise and reduce the world around him into some sort of divine plan.

>Apology of Christ
My apologies, it's the Apologeticum by Tertullian.
The italian version was sold together with De Carne Christi.

>>24738932
>What I always wonder with these "how did they know that..." questions, is why they never ask the person why or what reason they brought up a particular concept they presumably had no reason to.
I didn't think much of it until years later, as strange as that sounds. In the moment, I thought it was just a coincidence. Upon reflection, I remembered this event and the more I thought about it, the more improbable it seemed to me. That's the honest truth of it.
Strangely enough, I had another friend who was also into psychedelics, and a similar very improbable event like that had happened that I also thought it was just a coincidence in the moment. I had been researching a very specific product to purchase and it was imperative to me that no one know what it is I was going to purchase. The next day at work, my friend tells me that he is thinking of purchasing this same product. The product was a hidden voice recorder, which is something completely unrelated to our jobs.
What I'm starting to think is, that maybe people who do a lot of psychedelics gain some kind of Professor X kinda mind reading powers, that's my working theory so far anyways

I mean you could say that about all human life and individual experiences. Every person's individual experiences in life are astronomically unlikely while also guaranteed to happen when put on an infinite time scale.

I'm looking for an answer. No other medium allows you to consult the result of millennia of lives spent searching for an answer and its question.
I don't think real life makes sense and I don't want to go on pretending that it doesn't have to.

Nahhhhhh. House of Leaves is good! I think it's a book that you need to read in your early twenties however. This September/October is 10 years since I've read it

Did you dislike The Shining that much? I thought it is one of his very best novels; very strong atmosphere, great well-rounded characters, both supernatural and psychological horror, a lot of well written tension, just fantastic overall.
Also, which Last Days?

Necroscope 2 was better paced than the first book, but the constant backstory exposition got monotonous, also didn't care for the Cold War espionage stuff. The parts with Thibor and Faethor were great though, anything to do with the vampires was kino, really.

Id say its more /his/ than /lit/ but go ahead. Be prepared thats its a boomer sob story. I saw it in 1995 when I was 13

>>24739143

its a comedy, understandable a 13 year old wouldnt notice

>>24739137
its worth watching just in general, its a very decent movie. if you know what the vietnam war, black panthers and hippies are then you have all the necessary historical knowledge

>>24739498
>comedy
I didn't find anything funny at all about it, still dont unless its unintentional. Dunno what kind of comedies you're watching

It's a boomer nostalgia slideshow (as in literal boomer, someone born between 1950-1965). Watch it if you want to see a bunch of outdated pop culture references, I guess.

Lovely.

books are cheap, they look great on your shelf, and it's much more immersive to hold a book in your hand than some faggy kindle. I 100% undestand torrenting games, as in our times even if you buy the game on steam then you don't really actually own it. And also games are pretty expensive.

>>24738982
None of what you said makes any sense. Piracy isn't supposed to be a way to "make money" and if it ever was it was just people in markets selling burned DVDs or camrecorded movies from the Cinema. That hasn't been the case for a long while now, and piracy is for people who want things for free. How on earth were you making money from it? Do you live in the third world?

>>24737867
He just walks around daydreaming, it's not moving or shocking in the slightest. It's the first third of Crime & Punishment without references to philosophy

>>24737897
it's just funny and relatable. Frankly the whole thing is mildly self-deprecating. Hylics can't understand, won't understand. This book is not for you.

Did you have any actual literary analysis to provide here or are you just mad that the character couldn't function as a self-insert for your aspirations?

>>24737908
No fucking shit, that's why I said trying to sell it as shocking or tragic depiction of "muh starvation" is a scam. It's not terrible, but the theme is misplaced

You didn't read it, maybe the first quarter at most. Go shit up another board, shitstain.

Refreshment’s use

Cannot cease eating these chewy mints
Blue round smooth tiny minty mints
Blue like an ocean whose color is sucked out
Milky blue. Yes, milky blue
Waves of them waiting in the bottle.
On their mark and leap onto my tongue
And turn my thoughts minty,
By which I mean solid and icy
Feeling the thoughts being shaped on this blue fuel
I can almost caress it.
I will miss these when I finally submit to
Gobbling them by the handful
As if two at a time and three at a time is not exhausting

The fucked up thing is they dont even allow for cool scary twists.
Theres been a few stories that plot twist around the whole mc cant die issue by revealing someone else transcribed their last moments or w/e.
The issue is that the rules dont state that THE NARRATOR cant die, its the MC.
So whoever the story centers around can never ever never die. In shortform horror.

Trying to write horror short stories for a little collection, turning out to be much harder than I anticipated! Also, I thought I'd include some short, eerie poems, but that's also very difficult. Does anyone have any good advice for horror? Something I'm interested in is trying to do without death or blood, but still making unnerving stories regardless. I think that overusing gore is kind of cheap, and it's a fun challenge to not have blood turn up in any way.
