Walk with me, my sweet summer child, and hear the tale of fat pink masts jutting into sopping wet myrish swamps and black nipples brushing against silk until her cunt became the world while in the privy the princess guzzled arbor gold and shat but the more she drank the more she shat until she was shitting brown water and around her the planks of the ship groaned like a fat man taking a shit while she cursed the gods and nuncle smiled as he broke his fast on black bread, bacon burned black, and mulled wine while capon-grease dribbled down his chin and onto the boiled leather of his jerkin for she was wet with love and did she not know words are wind and dark wings bring dark words and a lannister always pays her debts and mayhaps this is nothing but a mummers farce and useless as nipples on a breastplate and the princess has been fucking lancel and moonboy for all nuncle knows and he is the blood of the dragon for the night is dark and full of terrors but where do whores go and jon snow knows nothing and near enough makes no matter so nuncle smiled and dipped the heel of his bread into clam chowder and prayed for half a hundred more heh har HODOR

>The gooey warm sensation inside her and the sordid knowledge that it was her own beloved son who was emptying his baby-making batter inside her brought Rhaenyra to her own orgasm a moment later, as she shivered and gasped against him, grinding her pelvis against his as he continued filling her.

>When their mutual orgasm died down, she collapsed atop him with a long sigh, planting kisses on his shoulder. They said nothing for several moments before she ran her fingers through his brown hair. “Luke…are you alright?”

The dregs of society pool together like the dirty puddles they tromp. Dublin is their city. Dubh Linn. Black Pool. The name evokes images of heroin rolling on foil. The Spire watches high over O'Connell Street, a lantern above the oily slick roads, taxis and buses rolling through them, like a needle penetrating the veiny patchwork streets.

u2 is boring man

The libretto is considered great poetry and drama of itself, accounted a masterpiece by many

Last week was Das Rheingold which covered the forging of the ring of power, its curse, and the jealousy and death that follows after the lust for it

This week is Die Walküre

>>24950336
I use a streaming service. Most will give you a free trial. Metropolitan Opera has the most traditional production but there are a lot of options. YouTube also has several productions

The work can be enjoyed pretty well by listening while reading the libretto, especially since the selection of audio recordings is much wider than visual recordings so you have a lot of latitude for personal taste

If you identify yourself by reading something that makes you appear smart, you are not a reader. You are a poseur. Especially if what you read is only chosen because it's been chosen for you by a consensus of "academics" and "critics" who couldn't hack into the sciences. Literary studies and English departments are by far the least intellectually rigorous on a university campus.

You build your society on truth, not tradition.
Tradition is too easily overtaken, corrupted, and turned into a source of lies that control your life. It is abused by the unethical and upheld by useful idiots.
Truth can't be overtaken like that, which is why propaganda is necessary. None of the postmodern criticisms defeated the concept of truth, which anybody would know if they actually read them instead of listening to peterstein.

How does modern technology change Spengler's predictions? He probably didn't see europe becoming 30% foreigners by 2025 too.

A downloaded LLM is a magic cube—a small encyclopedia that is yours forever. Prompt it, and the cube, a massive list of numbers, unfolds itself into coherent meaning. There is a romantic ingenuity to this artifact. Even after civilization ends, you can still carry it with you—this little cube that echoes the ensemble of human thought. Talking to it is like striking a tuning fork; the harmonies were once our humanity.

And while it may not yet think like a human, this pinnacle of technology is more than a work of art. It is the memory of humanity itself.

I have literally never written a story before. The last book I read was in highschool, if you don't count the OPM manga. I was considering this would be a short story, where they would eventually get caught because real justice > vigilantism and all that. What are some flaws you see in the plan? This plan is something I've been thinking about for a long time (except the disposing of the body)

He was a conservative Anglican. Church of England, before they went totally gay. He is admired by Protestants and Catholics alike, he's not really a theologian, and doesn't get into denominational controversies in his writing, but sticks to fundamental Christian truths. Read him, he's not going to yabber on about Marian dogma or anything. He's very popular among Anglicans, Catholics, Reformed Baptists, Presbyterians, etc.
