Yeah

Be the change you wish to see. Post about literature that you think is worthy of discussion.

Whats sad is that it is.

I wish it worked that way brother, but unfortunately this board is driven by rage bait and surface level discussion. Everytime i've tried to make an earnest thread about a book or play i've been reading, i'm usually met by an single digit amount of posts at best.

Not OP but that doesn’t always work. Though, there is a nice thread on Dickinson and another on Shakespeare up right now. Some of the generals (mainly poetry and classical languages) are okay too. There’s always the Esoterik Kant one if you’re feeling extra autistic.
Most threads are listed in the OP, he’s right. I expressed my disdain for it here, but I often just get insulted by some terminally online retard.

Actual good discussions like that will never again exist, atleast not on here. This website along with the rest of the internet has been completely Tiktokified.

You must be new. It was MUCH worse before the hack and the new captchas.
Nowadays it’s more comfy desu, although we should definitely have more history/nonfiction threads.

I'll start a fart-sniffing general for you, OP.

>>25232303
It's actually improved, half the catalogue used to be frog threads
>>
>>25232377
it's really just here, Twitter, and r/rsbookclub, and that's pretty much it. if you're being generous you could throw in substack or r/truelit. for a while in the 2010s it was just here
>>
>>25232423
Yeah I really do agree. I rue the days when more than half the catalogue consisted of DFW/Pynchon/Joyce/Guenon/McCarthy threads. Shit's much more comfy these days for sure.
>>
>>25232303
Honestly if there was like 50 more moderators it would be a good board. Only a single Blood Meridan thread allowed a week and so on.
>>
>>25232303
Women suck

>>25232377
This lol

>>25232759
Xwitter is fucking worthless. It's the opposite of this place in that everyone there is a preening faggot trying to make themselves look as smart and sophisticated as possible whereas half of this board is made up of 145 IQ people roleplaying as retards. The latter has far more value over time.
