>Bertrand Russell on Kant: We can be sure, he says, that everything we experience must always show the characteristics that our a priori knowledge asserts about it, because these characteristics are due to our own nature and therefore nothing can enter into our experience without acquiring these characteristics.
Yeah, sure you faggots. What is supposed to be a experience without time and space? Do you both want a prize for thiat discovery? Jesus I hate philosopherfags so much it's unreal

You can't even capitalize your sentences, you pretentious hipster twats. I guess capitalization is too "authoritative" or "patriarchal" for you, faggots. Go chop off your cocks since you probably think masculinity is "toxic" too, fucking deliberately-illiterate cancer.

I have been working for 9 years on a BitTorrent website for public domain ebooks. You can also make your own private torrent indexer within the site, called a "buoy," for videogames, movies, music, etc. that are in the public domain.

If you own the copyrights to files, the site is a web 3.0 dapp that allows for transfer of a cryptocurrency I created, called ATLANTIS (not public yet, site currently uses LINK). Users will be able to gain ATLANTIS by uploading files to the site and seeding torrents over time. So eventually, textbook companies can publish their ebooks using ATLANTIS. I don't take a royalty cut so this is not an ad.

Then students can simply upload public domain books to propagate.info and gain enough ATLANTIS to afford their textbooks, or any other copyrighted book that is legally published there.

The site uses neo4j graph db and includes VR graph visualization for finding related torrents. This will be useful for academic research. It is inspired by What.CD.

The site uses WebTorrent for ease of access. WebTorrent allows BitTorrent files to be downloaded in the browser. If you seed my files using BiglyBT with the WebTorrent plugin you will be able to upload to people downloading in the browser. Some of my files have 20 seeds by now but they aren't WebTorrent-enabled clients. So use BiglyBT with the WebTorrent plugin.

You will also be able to save an infoHash to the blockchain, so you own your data.

The site has about 300 ebooks as of now, all uploaded by me.

To incentivize uploading register an account and you will gain ATLANTIS for seeding and uploading. Right now ATLANTIS isn't live on the mainnet but you can accumulate it in the db and cash it out later.

Is this why male redheads are hated in popular culture?

Thinking that the Church has gone astray or that you need to be part of a movement to reform it is a Protestant mentality. This is why 99% of tradcaths are converts or reverts. The standard Catholic mentality is to do what the priest/bishop says. Breathe a sigh of relief that none of this is your responsibility and go to mass in the vernacular like a normal person. Inb4 "muh reverence". I've been to a couple of Latin masses, the priest is just mumbling through it all like a magic spell. They reformed it for a reason. Also like most Catholics I cannot afford a suit. Francis was right, and most trads are basically pharisees.

Welp, that's life. Teen years gone. Twenties gone. Nothing happened.

No one should come here.

What books should I have on my shelf to impress these types of women.
Please, I have 72 hours to prepare.

My one fifty word comments on TikTok always get an insane amount of likes, do I have what it takes to be a successful writer?

You may probe into the heart of literature and reap its many fruits, you may rest into the bosom of gnosis attainment for many years, even decades, but there will come a time when all the knowledge you conquered and cherished will be violently robbed of you, and you will have to go into dark depths alone and vulnerable. Death comes for all. Each breath you take, each page you turned, each book you read, each library you studied takes you closer and closer to the final hour. Death never stops coming closer, and here you are, totally vulnerable to this most terrible god yet without the smallest amount of worry in your heart, just like a naive cow being led to the slaughterhouse where she will be decapitated.

How can you ignore this most important fact? You're all extremely intelligent and knowledgeable in the literature domain, yet you ignore the invincible demon that will eat your heart very soon! How can you tarry? The intelligent person will clearly see that he should focus all his efforts in overcoming this most definitive destiny. All else is secondary. Don't waste your life reading books!

Zoomerisms
"as per" in place of "as" is archaic, "as per" in place of "per" is simply incorrect. Either use "as" or "per" depending on context, not both.

"Exponentially" cannot be used comparing two discrete states, it's a second-order property which describes rate of change. X cannot be "exponentially better" than Y. You might be looking for the term "(an) order(s) of magnitude".

"egregious" is an adjective which only truly makes sense modifying something which is typically intangible (usually an action), and always bad or morally wrong by definition. You can make an "egregious mistake", but not typically not an "egregious decision", and you can never wear an "egregious shirt".
