Have you been able to leverage philosophy and literature in your career?Most classical literature and philosophy was intended to be appreciated by educated individuals whose enlightenment would advance their occupations as noblemen, administrators, warriors, poets, clergy, whatever. Even philosophers who had no other occupation taught law and medical students for practical application in their careers.
>>24952196>>24952196Wtf is that the masonic hand???? I thought based prussia was above such judeo-satanic machinations. What is this shit? Has the west always been like this??? No! The elitist prussian junker aristocracy was supposed to sit atop the heap in a beautifully regimented military hierarchy. No no no! Not like this. Why the need for secret societies? WHAT THE FUCK
>>24952196I have no career. I hedge all my bets on entrepreneurship in the not so distant future. My degree is worthless and I currently work in a low-status job performing menial labor. The gamble is using your liberal arts education to deconstruct society down to its frame so that you're able then exploit that under the hood knowledge for gaming the system in personal business ventures.
>>24952271Chad move, I feel the same way. Failing that, I plan to devote myself entirely to fermenting a coup d'etat. If I can allow myself one criticism of your plan, it's working at all. As long as you are paying taxes you are part of the problem.
>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?
>>24951473There is in effect no such thing as simultaneous rhythms. No matter how different or how complex, they will eventually all collapse into a single cyclic pattern. It's just a question of how long the pattern is.

>>24951345A bit of sex or implied sex can help sell a movie. Though if you take a movie like absentia you see that it's not necessary.You see the same in books like the prestige, where the horror element is devoid of sexuality.

>>24952321>where the horror element is devoid of sexuality.Except they're gay for each other and create clones instead of babies?
>>24951534I don't know how you did it, but you somehow made your fantasy of having sex with multiple women at the same time as gay as possible.
>>24952324The book doesn't have clones and is told through the eyes of one their descendants (the baby of a baby)

As a whole, web novels are infamous for content sprawl and pacing issues.

Keeping up with other readers on a weekly basis to discuss the story's events unfolding is another perk, in the same way discussing an ongoing TV show might be.>Why write web novels?Ease of access & potential for Patreon earnings.

>>24952299Uh, yeah? What's your point.The big thing is the market for ads.Readers on RR actually do click ads and check out books, and then RS and the site algorithm do elevate people better than any other website I can think of. So $300 ad spend on RR can get you on RS (if you're good, of course), which gets you a thousand followers, and then you convert them to patreon and KU, THEN you get amazon ratings and reviews and you can get boosted in the amazon algorithm.The only alternative I know is booktok, and I guess booktube, mainly for romantasy. But you have to be way more parasocial, and good luck doing that as a mid-level attractive male.If you want money, that's the way to go.>but I don't care about money, I only want readersTHEY'RE THE SAME THINGAmazon is flooded with slop. If you want readers, you have to go where the readers are. That's booktok/tube and RR/webnovels/whatever

I can't deal with the hurt of pining over females anymore. How do I completely kill the instinct for female intimacy within me? Any Lit that will kill romantic delusion?

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.

>>24946129Byzantium Endures is an amazing novel and "Colonel" Pyat is a phenomenal character. Many people on this site could learn a lot about writing from reading Moorcock's lesser known fictions. But of course because he put out a few pulps they're scared to be judged as a sub-literati so will stay ignorant instead.

Everything else just seems so spooked and retarded.
