Is a River Alive by Macfarlane
>>249472812666
Non fictionThe Civil War Volume 2 by Shelby Foote Anabasis of Alexander by ArrianArabian Sands by Wilfred ThesingerRoumeli: Travels in Northern Greece by Patrick Leigh FermorFictionCount Belisarius by Robert GravesLincoln by Gore VidalGuignol’s Band by Louis Ferdinand Celine I don’t know if I’m just getting old and my tastes are changing but I liked the non fiction I read this year more than the fiction. Even the fiction I liked was mostly historical fiction. The one exception was Celine. And even that was a qualified like. I kept thinking how much sordidness, squalor, cynical bellyaching and bitching and moaning am I going to put up with. Then there’s a scene near the end where he gives up and surrenders himself to the French authorities and begs them to just send him back to his old unit, don’t shoot him. And the doctors up his disability pension from 70 percent to 80 and reassure him he did his part. He’s an invalid. He isn’t going back.And I suddenly felt for the bitter louse. I had a similar moment with Death on the Installment Plan when I suddenly felt bad for the chronic bellyacher and miscreant. Just when I thought I couldn’t endure his bullshit anymore.
>>24947281I spent most of this year working on my own novel. I did reread Perfume and Frankenstein and I liked them even more than the first time I read them.
>>24949439Do you think getting old makes you prefer non-fiction which is why old men read nothing but Stephen Ambrose?
There is a fascinating, digressive chapter in Hugo's Notre-Dame de Paris about how architecture was once the main form of expression of human thought and how the invention of the printing press put an end to this.Are there any other books about this topic? The intersection of philosophy and architecture? And was Hugo even correct?

>>24947730>>24947774Modern cities are contra natura and if there is any justice in this world He will destroy them.
>>24948304why are they different than cities in the past?
>>24947730Without the excuse of religion i do feel we tend to build very little of the kind of monumental architecture where the whole space can be made subservient to a single concept. Skyscrapers are neat but ultimately as aesthetic statements they are often kind of bland, their insides homogeneous office floors. Very little going on there conceptually outside of 'hehe tall' The kind of buildings architects now usually use to express their grand masterpieces are musea, opera houses, libraries, or other large freestanding public buildings, although even these rarely have the pure monumentality of religious buildings since they still need to be functional spaces.
>>24947730That's because the meme of SOULLESS and UGLY new buildings aren't referring to chinese skyscrapers.

Everything else just seems so spooked and retarded. Like these "philosophers" can't even see past their own circumstances or analyze their own thoughts and motivations, only (poorly) justify their own particular neuroses. Has there ever been a half decent attempt at addressing, let alone refuting him?
>>24948046>StirneriteEek
>>24947731> Like these "philosophers" can't even see past their own circumstances or analyze their own thoughts and motivations, only (poorly) justify their own particular neuroses.Please understand that attempting to be "free of your own circumstances", or a "true egoist" or, even worse, a "stirnerite" is as "spooked" as anything else. It's very similar to the buddhist joke about "but you desire to be free of desire!".Read everyone and anyone. Steal useful ideas from them (yes, other philosophers also have useful ideas), and discard useless ones. Do not take any of them very seriously, and do not fully buy into any one of them. That will allow you to come up with your own framework, and you will swap out parts of it as your life and opinions change. It will be a syncretic patchwork and not "original", yes, but the point is that it will be tailormade to your life, not anyone else's.

>>24947751Marx knew that Germany couldn't afford another Stirner.
>>24949361>attempting to be "free of your own circumstances", or a "true egoist" or, even worse, a "stirnerite" is as "spooked" as anything else.That's not what I'm saying. Egoism is (can be) a spook too. Spooks aren't some """morally wrong""" thing that you have to avoid, they're just tools to pursue your own self interest. Using spooks is necessary thing, even.The issue comes when you actually fall for the spook, genuinely believe in it, and act against your own self interest because of it. With Egoism this usually happens, as you say, when people become obsessed with the idea of dispelling or fighting against spooks, or being a "true egoist".My problem with philosophy is that I do not see very much utility in the ideas of philosophers. They believe in the spooks they create, they place them above themselves, and so are unable to fully understand them as they are (what they are useful for).That is to say, they can't see outside of their own framework, so they fail to convince me that their framework is useful outside of itself.Could some of these spooks still reasonably be useful to me? Maybe, but I haven't found any that do. I don't think philosophers or their followers are actually more successful in pursuing their own interests than anyone else. Usually the opposite, as they get so wrapped up in these spooks that they forgo the basic things that other people do simply because they haven't been told not to.I guess the primary benefit is gaining insight into the thought and behaviors of other people. Except very few people actually believe in these philosophies in the real world, and I don't believe that these spooks have very good predictive/descriptive power in determining the actions of other people.

Sapient Species, Races, and Miscellaneous Sapients EditionFAQ:>What is worldbuilding?Worldbuilding is the process of creating entire fictional worlds from scratch, all while considering the logistics of these worlds to make them as believable as possible. Worldbuilding asks questions about the setting of a world, and then answers them, often in great detail. Most people use it as a means of creating a setting or the scenery for a story.>"Isn't there a Worldbuilding general in >>>/tg/ already?"Yes, there is. However, that general is focused on the creation of fictional worlds for the intended purpose of playing TTRPG campaigns. Here you can discuss worldbuilding projects that are not meant to be used for a roleplaying setting, but for novels, videogames, or any other kind of creative project.>"Can I discuss the setting of my campaign here, though?"If you want to, but it would probably be better to discuss it on >>>/tg/ . We don't allow the discussion of TTRPG mechanics, however. If you want to discuss stats or which D&D edition is best, this is not the place.>"Can I talk about an existing fictional setting that is not mine?"Yes, of course you can!>"Does worldbuilding need to be about fantasy and elves?"Worldbuilding, as already stated above, and contrary to what many believe, does not inherently imply blatantly copying Tolkien. In fact, there are many science-fiction setting out there, and even entire alternative history settings which do not possess supernatural elements at all. Any kind of science fiction book has an implied setting at least, which involves a certain degree of worldbuilding put into it.Old Thread: >>24748733
>>24948146It was about Brandon Sanderson marketing his books to stupid nerds.
Anyone else making a "non-magic" world? Everytime I see worldbuilding forums it is either hard fantasy or sci-fi
>>24949315A non-magic world would be technically science fiction even if the world contains no futuristic technology. See for example Nightfall by Isaac Asimov.
>>24878110Not op.I think we would get along.
>>24946278To prevent prior clashing, I immediately imagined these birdfolk living on floating cities like in bioshock infinite. I know you specified they're nomads but I struggle to wrap my head around how you plan for a nomadic culture broken into factions to put up a fight against the organized armies of humanity. Anyway, I think putting them in that unreachable realm solves the problem of no prior clashing, and perfectly sets up for war resulting of humanity's advancements in aviation- which lines up with the late 1800s period you mentioned. Humanity's rigid, but high firepower flying machines vs the birdfolks natural affinity for airborne combat sounds like a setup for some really cool fights. This is just what popped in my head when reading what you wrote.
