You didn't manage to guess it in the end anyway.

Angel's Egg deals with the topic of Christian salvation in a similar way that Elden Ring did with the war between faith and works. It's not surprising since Dark Souls 3 last area was a direct allusion to Angel's Egg.

I got 12 hours of editing done today, I've had enough. Still on pace to finish this draft next month and then start what I think will be my last time consuming revision.

Hyperinflation, high unemployment, the labour shortage, the high gass prices, the housing market, &c., &c., &c.
Damn it! We all saw it coming but the entire time they just denied denied denied and pretended like we were all stupid for seeing it. Even though these are the same people who seem incapable of learning from history and the same people who unironically think inflation will just go away if we all just ignored it or who—because of their priveleged backgrounds—believe inflation is "not that big of a deal", we all just had to sit there and accept their narrative. Don't let these faggots blame the war in Ukraine for every I'll we now have. Yeah, it's not helping but they (it almost feels like intentionally) drove us over the cliff. And we're still sending billions to Ukraine. How long are people going to keep on tolerating these shitty economic policies? I really hope zoomers are paying attention to all this shit instead of just worrying about, at most, student debt.

I've always found difficult to connect with my peers and enjoy the "little pleasures" about life. Not to mention the fact that I love astronomy and observing the universe and its giant scale makes it difficult to not feel completely worthless about myself, I feel like my life is as valuable as an ant's.
Do you guys have any recommendations for books that could help me dealing with those things? Philosophy is primarely what I'm looking for but fiction works could also help I guess

/wg/ regular here, got back from a hard day at work and gonna work on a short story I started this weekend. I've been working on a novel, maybe will get to draft 3 by March. Best news is my deaf neighbor, who wails like a werewolf every night, moves out tomorrow. He deserves a story one day I think.

Post some philosophers that are against sexual sexual gratifications/pro self discipline/against going to sexual desires. I want to read some books based off these philosophers different theories on it.

>any understanding of the world that puts niggers and white people as the same species is clearly wrong
Jesus. I really do hate whites. All of you are pure evil, devoid of any humanity. I wish hell was real so you subhumans could rot there for infinity.

It happened as it had to happen when you build, against all common sense, a house on the edge of a cliff: shaken by a slight earthquake, it tumbled down the steep slope and disappeared – sploosh – in a foamy fountain of seawater. The inmates of this involuntary vehicle, the Hempel family of three, notoriously ill-famed for their obsessional ideas, which is another word for madness, found a damp and premature end in the abrupt passing of their home. And, if I may add, as sad as the sudden death of a family may be, the sight of a rainbow is, and always will be, beautiful.

Just some frustrated scribbling. I'd like to know if I lay it on too thick. Am I a man or a woman? This is a translation.
I critiqued two times already, but I don't want to link to my posts. Take my word for it.

>cant imagine people coming to 4chan for stimulating discussion lmao
is this some kind of false-flag where you pretend to be a retarded /pol/tard brought in by the election with a blatant disregard for board culture and interesting discussion to get people to dislike /pol/tards before pointing out as a Lefty that "hey guys look at how bad the /pol/tards are!" or something? I don't understand.

>tfw neither charming nor Schopenhauer

You'll never get that feeling of euphoria you felt on the first time

You'll never feel that electric feeling of showering with your s/o for the first time again

It's all gone now.

in christianity, forgiveness saves you from damnation but does not lift you from consequences of your personal responsibility, earthly consequences.
this is what leftists misunderstand, same as principle of charity vs socialism.
you are a pseud basically

>to which you thought what you said was actually what you said.

don't be too harsh, I don't think I've ever said or written something without sounding retarded

There's nothing more pathetic than someone so spineless, so fragile and so utterly fearful of the discussion of contemporary relevancy to ones hobby. Imagine being so gripped with a resentment of life that the mere mention of something as simple as the zeitgeist of our lives sparks the level of autistic outrage found in posters like this. I'm sorry that you want to spend your days eating mommy's tendies and organizing your shelf full of books you bought to appear intellectual to random strangers in the internet, but some of us live in the real world. And in the real world, real events have consequences. You can't just close the cover of the book when you don't like the plot you pussy.

That would be nice. Maybe I will die catching a bullet for my one and only.

My mum reads a lot of classics and has taken a extreme liking to the more girlier ones (jane eyre, pride and prejudice, gone with the wind). She’s russian but she doesn’t like Dostoyevsky that much since she deems him as too philosophical. She prefers Tolstoy and when she was a kid she’d always skip through the war parts in “war and peace”, kek.

My dad reads magazines on interior designing while he takes a shit.

My older brother reads YA fiction every now and then like Stay With Me or something like that. He prefers reading manga by far.
