Sometimes spanish is such a magical language.

humanities have tons of laboral posibilities, you just need to sell your soul like in every other field. i bet the guy who studied medicine to cure cancer will love to see some huge international corporation become even richer while limiting the access to his discovery.

>people who buy phiscal copies of what they see on /lit/ are enough to sustain the printing process
>thinking that publishing is 100% about reaching people
>ignoring that you get published to then get published in better places once you have something on your back
>pretending that selfpublishing, unless in extremely lucky cases, isn't the fastest way to get blacklisted in big publishing houses.
if they see you're gonna give it for free they won't pay you to sell it, boi.

I really doubt Lynch was doing a direct reference to Lacan, rather, you could apply Lacan to his work just as you would to anyone's. A lot of people assume there are intended layers upon layers in Lynch works when actually it's a much more emotional connection.
Being "like 'waaaaaaah'" is just being surprised and/or demanding the film to be what you wanted it to be. It's not an emotional response, just a very stupid intellectual one.

it's better if you ignore the people who are trying to get a reaction out of you. we used to say "don't feed the trolls" but I guess that could be a very old concept for some people.

w-what? has that become one of those films you have to ask people if they saw them? everyone and their mothers were talking about sub par Broken Flowers, and there wasn't even that much to tal about.

Just leaving things like that makes you look like an ass. What would be the right suzuki?
Youth of the Beast? Branded to Kill? That's just generic gangster stuff, Nikatsu crapped a dozen of those per year. Prisioner 701 1 to 3, and even 4, are immensely superior. They try to be more complex AND more exploitative, and succeed with honors.

If you're gonna bring up Borges you should had chosen the Library of Babel, that includes every single book ever written and more (although, as he points out, all of them could be in a certain single tome).

Last year you kept saying it was just a first attempt at writing gone out of hand and that you knew you could write a more succinct work, why do you keep pushing that masturbation gone out of hand?

if you're gonna be like that you might as well be analytic, the point of continental phil is the constant construction on top of previous works.

>However a country can't stay in the developing stage forever.
You clearly don't understand this stuff. Every country where a first world company can buy cheap labor is a developing country. At the same time, the countries with the higest birth rate are the ones with poor people being killed daily (Palestine, Brasil, China).

I'd like you to bring up a couple developed countries, that went from working it to fully first world. Let me remind you that the international bank has been giving money to developing countries and telling them how to use it since 1944 so they should had fixed at least one so far.

Because angry anons that want to make them look bad in 4chan are the curators.

Your understanding of human interactions and genre fiction is pretty poor. I'd suggest you go out more and/or talk with people.

Rant is probably Palahniuck's best, some people prefer Haunted but it's another kind of deal. It's certainly his last decent book.

That's dumb, Butters. Next you're gonna say that the "southern horror" bunch should shut up and read Lovecraft's more talented friends.

Osea, me salé como una semana de comida traer cualquier libro de Pynchon así que queda en espera, pero es bastante fantasma pensar que hay uno solo que le interesa.
