/lit/ - Literature

Does anybody have experience with running their own bookstore?
I want to break into the used book market but I cannot tell if it's profitable or just a nice retirement plan. Sick of office life.

I'm working opposite my bookcases so when I have a work call they're visible and I have the suspicion some of my colleagues are 4chan material, so I shan't be posting my books.

I want to have sweet consensual sex with Leonie with lots of kissing and eye-contact, but sometimes also wild and unrestrained sex as well.

Just came about "The Man Who laughts" by Victor Hugo in my favorite antiquarian bookshop and couldn't resist the leather bound 1925 edition.

What am I in for, /lit/? It's my first Hugo and I spend my last 25 euroshekels on it.

Because her books are philosophical texts with the drawings of shitty novels around them because nobody would listen to her philosophy otherwise. Have you ever actually read Rand? If so then you've witnessed the literal dozens of consecutive pages dedicated solely to ideological spiel.

Also because you're reading something written by a woman which is rarely a good idea.

I still have time to reach 1000 if I could finish the chapter, but it's quite a messy one.

How was your Sunday?

Yes, time is the psyche's recollection of the past to the present relying on past cycles of material to reference to as a source of consistent cycles. We refer to time in deference to matter and movement whereas there is no time without matter like there is no shadows without matter. We use our own bodies as the first object as a reference point relative to other objects and cycles which our own bodies functions in cycles in relation to the world harmonious or disharmonious relative to the body. Time dilation is really process dilation of movement of objects relative to each other while so called special relativity is when two or more things are moving along side each other in sharing the same relation to each other in motion.

Also, fuck you for making this thread.

>The mechanism by which I am spurred to act in manners with mannerisms I have instantiated upwards from my subconscious, to my conscience and consciousness, pleasure and the pursuit of happiness, is somehow a deterrent in my ultimate achievement of the betterment of the self and others. Who also seek an ultimate happiness and satisfaction through sacrifice.

The pursuit may be paradoxical but the goal is not. The goal is the alleviation of suffering.

Suffering is incorporated as apart of that journey in the strong man, but never embraced as some sort of demented, twisted soul might wish it so they could claim they were strong by virtue of suffering; when in reality they do not know how to end it. And would if they could.

>this whole idea makes my derealization worse

It's been a year and two months and I still don't feel like I'm even in my body.
I have no control and I barely feel I exist myself.

Suicide soon.
