>is arguably the single most racist author in American history>marries a Jewish womanWhat did HP Lovecraft mean by this?
>>24946601racism is more nuanced and multi-faceted than you think. the founding fathers considered swedes swarthy. people were more interested in the differences in their immediate neighbours than people from far off lands in the east or south back then.
"Racism" is just having a healthy sense of pattern recognition.
The moral of the story here is that it is much better to be antisemitic than to be racist. If you have to choose between not trusting the blacks and not trusting the Jews, it is far wiser to pick the latter.

>>24946601It was completely normal to look down on the "negroes" for the longest time in history. You'll see it even in the philosophical texts of Schopenhauer and Hume.
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? I'm so tired and it hurts too much.>Bingo, Bingo, baby>I love you, ain't that crazy?>I want you, I want you over again>Bingo, Bingo, baby>I love you, ain't that crazy?>I want you, I want you over again
>>24952024No literature would ever be able to sober you as well as females' own brutalist comments in Reddit and TikTok about just how they regard males. You don't want books, you want women hate threads with compiled screenshots and women hate videos with compiled clips.Nothing hurts like the truth from the horse's own mouth.

Ebooks weren't a thing when I grew up. I have loved reading for almost 40 years, and reading means physical books. I don't like reading books off a screen. It doesn't give the same pleasure as reading off a page.

So they adapted a Pynchon novel for filmI've never read Pynchon before but like"One Battle After Another" - what the FUCK is this turbo jogger leftist power fanstasy bullshit?I always realized Hollywood is a bunch left-leaning cucks but holy fuck they outdid themselves with this one.The level of blatant propaganda is on par with fucking commie films of Stalin's era or something.This guy made "There will be blood" and now this what the fuck. This movie doesn't even feel real, it's a caricature of a movie.Tell me bros is Pynchon cringe plebbitor shit like that and not based? Le speaking truth to power

Shit thought I stumbled my way to /tv/ for a second there. Guise it was a movie, with action and meant as entertainment. Was a bit long, even for a lad who gladly will sit through movies. Essentially both sides of your views of the political spectrum were skewed. The xmas nazis, silly, patient, and boring in their muscle cars. The political terrorists, who pulled off an amazing feat at the beginning, (and their story should have ended there), eventually imploded as revolutionary groups tend to do. The system is too much for these groups to grow, like pressure at the edge of a bubble. And when we see Leo become a father and care 0 about the world/their mission, you see he's ready to grow. Nobody else grows. Beverly Hills hangs with younger revolutionaries, ends in her downfall. Lockjaw keeps desiring his past/but cannot reconcile with what his future goals demand he give up. The daughter is parentified, if I may, and is the only 'grown up.' Until the end when Leo and her embrace. The Sensei also was immature, drinking and driving, even though, monthly he was doing what the French 75 did one night. So yes, a FOIL between the left and right, with the intention of realizing both sides are all 'failures' in the eyes of society and so must battle each other in their own battleground in the background. Thus immaturely electing to be on the outside and forever battling society to hold their own identity, hence the title. Fools rush in but they're the only ones with guts do anything at all.

Are there any librarians or library assistants here? How did you get your job? I want to be a library assistant but Ive found it difficult to find a job.
>>24950059im kinda into the glorified social worker aspect desu its one of the appeals.
>>24949864My sister is one.
My mom ks one. She got in with a bachelor's degree in equine science. Without an MA you can only be a librarian for small-town libraries though
>>24949864I once I got a job as a library assistant in a call center. Didn't last for more than six months because I didn't fit in with anyone else. Basically you had to fulfill ALL of these categories.>must be a woman, if not must be gay or be able to be mistaken for gay>must be firmly left wing, if not you must be old and fulfill all the other categories>if you're black and have a legitimate disability you don't have to follow these rules
>>24952061This, except you also have to have a degree for some reason to sit there and handle books. I've been doing this all my life, why the fuck do I need an advanced degree to be a glorified store clerk?

>>24951773Here are a few bits i liked:"Beranger, by contrast, is utterly self-sufficient as a writer. This is why he has never served any party. He finds so much fulfillment in his own thoughts and feelings that the world can give nothing to him and take nothing from him." "An incident from our life is worth recording not because it is true, but because it meant something." "Error belongs to libraries, truth to the human mind. Books beget more books, but the study of living primordial laws is pleasing to the mind that can grasp the simple, disentangle the complex, and bring light into darkness." "The approach I adopted more than forty years ago is still valid: one is led through all the labyrinthine twists and turns of the comprehensible until one comes up against the incomprehensible - at which point, having learned a great deal, one can happily content oneself with that. None of your philosophers, ancient or modern, has managed to go any further." "The story of Napoleon shows us how dangerous it is to exalt oneself to the realm of the absolute, and to sacrifice everything to the pursuit of an idea." "we should not get hung up on one particular thing and try to turn it into the ultimate ideal. We must not think that Chinese literature is everything, or Serbian literature, or Calderon. or the Nibelungen; if we are looking for the ultimate ideal, then we need to go back everytime to the ancient Greeks, in whose works the finest human qualities are always represented. We must regard all the rest as just the product of its times, and take from it such good things we can find." I have at least a dozen more but ill stop there.
