Funny how easy it will be to put my kid in the top 1% by simply denying them internet and alcohol until 18. Spending time with them one on one and making them read books.

>It is questionable whether one can really discuss the aspects of ''realism'' or of ''human experience'' when considering an author whose gallery of characters consists almost exclusively of neurotics and lunatics. Besides all this, Dostoyevsky's characters have yet another remarkable feature: Throughout the book they do not develop as personalities. We get them all complete at the beginning of the tale, and so they remain without any considerable changes, although their surroundings may alter and the most extraordinary things may happen to them. In the case of Raskolnikov in ''Crime and Punishment,'' for instance, we see a man go from premeditated murder to the promise of an achievement of some kind of harmony with the outer world, but all this happens somehow from without: Innerly even Raskolnikov does not go through any true development of personality, and the other heroes of Dostoyevsky do even less so. The only thing that develops, vacillates, takes unexpected sharp turns, deviates completely to include new people and circumstances, is the plot.

God damn.

>He actually believes in a linguistic standard
lol language is a sandbox. if you're offended by dialects and meme-talk you're a pedantic autist.
why aren't you taking advantage of the anarchy of language to make up words? why aren't you being an active participant?
