After reading this, I am convinced. I need to kill myself. Bye bye /lit/!
Antinatalists are cringe. The real chads are those who mass kill all sentient life forms and make children to do the same.Forcing nirvana on existence
>>25556371this was such a shit book. i actually liked ligotti's shorts but it's clear he has never formally studied philsophy at all. It was just gay doomer anecdotes leading to an implausible conclusion that "errmm aliyums are like making us unhappy on purpose to eat our loosh!".
Hold ye horses, lad
>>25556394Not before this too.
>>25556371read peter wessel zapffe too. ligotti got his inspiration from him.
>>25556409Do you happen to have the PDF for this book? It is absolutely impossible to find.
>>25556385This was my experience with The myth of Sisyphus, to a lesser degree. It reads too much like Camus' personal diary instead of a philosophical treatise.
>>25558265they have it at barnes and noblies it cannot be that difficult to find.>>25556385I dropped it after the 9th time he quoted a philopher and then immediately followed it with "well this philosopher is just playing word games to get away from the horrifying conclusion, so actually, they're retarded. Anyways--" Just seemed a little intellectually disrespectful. It did make we want to read Mainländer tho
>>25558300What's the chapter on suicide and pessimism like? It's the only one I want to read. Does she make a good argument for promortalism? Also every time I try to read academic philosophy it's so painful and boring and aggravating I want to kill myself. Is the whole book in this style? If so please burn it, I rather watch Efil Blaise videos. I hate academic philosophy. It's such a joke. Write with zero passion, zero individuality, zero fun, zero joy, and put it all in obscure journals or books nobody can access or afford. What is the fucking point? Fuck off.
>>25558326No, the book is in a more conversational style (maybe to its detriment, in my opinion, but it sounds like you'd like that). He references lots of pop culture (I think The Thing at some point, that sort of thing). He even pulls out ALL CAPS in a couple amusing moments.
>>25558139>when he uses quotes from his own fiction to support his argumentsholy based
>>25556385The guy has a personality disorder, what do you expect lol
>>25556385It's amatuer philosophy and actually a refreshing change from the formal morons up their own ass
>>25558667Every personality is a disorder, that is exactly why pharma makes so much money.
>>25558696Bing bing wahoo, here’s an updoot, mr enlightened gentlegoodsir!
>>25558696Deep.
>>25556394Is that book good or a meme?
>>25556371Do a flip
KMS yourselves.
