While walkin' in his fields..
Sought to plant the first seed
Desired to give Man the name
Sneed.
And when the last man falls
and the magic all halts
The fields become barren
The world is indeed dying
Then Chuck just laughs again
This time there won't be a seed
It's just
Sneed.
Thus the last became the first.
Titled "The First and the Last"

I can't tell if this entire post is some elaborate ironic shitpost or actual good advice.

AK simply for the Levin + Kitty story.

Just finished the Sorrows of Young Werther my friends. Why was I far more moved by the story of Charlotte's mother dying than by Werther's suicide? I think because I found Werther's whole worldview, and so actions, totally irrational. Whereas Momma didn't die because she couldn't get over another man's woman baka. Most importantly, I wanna know if anyone can help me figure something out. At one point, Werther uses a horse analogy that basically amounts to "you'll be unhappy no matter what you do,". Now is this Goethe making a comment on Kierkegaard's monkey thing on how you'll feel regret whether you kill yourself or not? That seems to track with the novella as a whole, but isk if that's grasping for straws. Could Goethe have instead simply been offering his interpretation of the "grass is always greener," platitude? That, however, doesn't seem to be 1:1 synonymoose. Idk. If any Goethe-geniuses could explain id be a happy guy.

Otherwise, please post other good Goethe short stories. I liked his writing a lot and wanna read more to spice my evenings as I truck through Jung, which my friends, is quite the pained pleasure.

Hey, anons. Could you recommend me some books about gaining control over your brain and lowering your dopamine levels? I took EasyPeasy pill, but still struggling with snacking and weed addiction. Also, bloomercore thread.
