I'm a faggot and this makes me want to kill myself. Not out of cuck shame or anything, but because the cynicism of this stupid shit saps all the life out of me. No vigour, no energy... to compete in this leper rat race.

Anyway I'm reading Patrick White's The Twyborn Affair at the moment. First White and I am enjoying it a lot. For some reason I had expected White to be droll, but he is the opposite.
