Like that other anon said before, I have met 3 women worth actually pursuing from elementary school to undergrad and I was too immature to actuslly romantically pursue them. I did become good friends with them and learn a lot about what intelligent women really think about and how they can make your life better. But those successes aren't the point. It's the fact that you put in everything you got into your goal so if you fail, you csn honestly say that you tried your best and didn't pussyfoot about it at all. In life, you will face a lot of failure. But, it's okay to fail so long as you put genuone effort into succeeding and don't get what you want and eventuslly recover so you have zero regrets about being a pussy and don't start blaming something/someone for your lack of true commmitment. I don't gdt how don't understand this: sometimes you fail in life and that's out of control. But if you don't even start, you will always fail and it is always your fault.

The ball's in your court. Are you going to be a bitch and blame others for your weakness or are you going to take command of your destiney?

Alright anon, that's enough. You need a fap and a nap. Come back when you're refreshed and ungrumpified.

Who are some writers that are desperately trying to “be” another writer? For example, Matt Taibbi wants to be hunter s Thompson so bad. Cormac McCarthy wants to be Melville so bad. Who else?

Why did the theory of transcendentals--truth, beauty and good--all being ontologically one fall out of favor outside of Catholicism? As far as I can tell the closest Modern philosophy got was romantics like Schiller in On Grace and Dignity, but the majority of philosophers seem to hold that beauty is a sensible experience that arises partially in correspondence to the good or are aestheticists altogether (i.e. amoral).

Is there any fantasy book/author that is really concerned with social laws of cause and effect, and that every time a new fantasy element is added they explore its practical implications in questions of economy, war, and so on?
