that's all I got on this drive

We write a line through Z to differentiate it from 2
We draw a line through 0 to differentiate it from O
We write an open 4 to differentiate it from 9
We draw 9 like a backwards P to differentiate it from g

Why is there nothing for 5 and S?

Plato had Diogenes

Smoking and reading don't really mix (with Pynchon being the obvious exception, Gravity's Rainbow begs to be re-read stoned off your ass), I usually prefer it as a way to unwind after a hard day of study.

My current schedule

>Wake up
>largest breakfast I can stomach
>quad shot of espresso
>morning walk and a cigarette to refresh the sleeping body
>autodidact study until I get a migraine
>pop half a dozen T3s, smoke a trio of nice big bong tokes and chug down a cup of Kava Kava brew
>go for an evening walk listening to Trap music
>get home, brew some chamomile valerian tea and take a mixture of various OTC herbal sleep supplements
>pass out at some point and regain consciousness in the morning
>rinse and repeat

I'm comfortably in a downward spiral leading to a life of empty intellectualism and homelessness AKA the only patrician lifestyle still available. Now if I could only build up the courage to jack off at the grocery store, I could start to live like a true Diogenes.

It's outta sight

This is so helpful and is very, very much appreciated. Thank you.

Can someone actually 'become' ubermensch or is he just an ideal to strive towards?

Börja med grekerna. Tråd på svenska.

Jag vill inte diskutera grekerna. Konjak och lördagseftermiddag. Vad händer, vänner?

>not knowing who diogenes is

What's the proper way to respond to a logical fallacy when one is in a debate?

Do I simply point it out for what it is?

Do I then have the moral high ground to state a similar logical fallacy to highlight the absurdity of my opponent's use of a fallacy?

There is no other option for a e/lit/ist

>Implying any of them compare to Diogenes

>It was in Corinth that a meeting between Alexander the Great and Diogenes is supposed to have taken place. The accounts of Plutarch and Diogenes Laërtius recount that they exchanged only a few words: while Diogenes was relaxing in the sunlight in the morning, Alexander, thrilled to meet the famous philosopher, asked if there was any favour he might do for him. Diogenes replied, "Yes, stand out of my sunlight". Alexander then declared, "If I were not Alexander, then I should wish to be Diogenes.", to which Diogenes replied "If I were not Diogenes, I should also wish to be Diogenes.

Was there a philosopher more based than Diogenes?

I live in a giant bucket.
