gee, wonder why nobody takes anything out of these things. almost like they're just repositories for books nobody wants to read.

Books to combat the roaring emptiness inside of me? Just finished reading everything by Melville and remain totally conquered by inertia. Moby Dick like so many great books was admirable but not inspiring, I'm not looking for the sublime if it's meant for another kind of person entirely.

>implying I go out in public

I don't feel shame anymore

I would prefer not to.

Bartleby the Scrivener

Is mental illness conductive to the literary life?

What are your diagnoses?

An internet celebrity and young adult author turns bitter after his marriage fails after which he starts to push Hegesian philosophy and causes a string of teenage girl suicides which results in a free speech debacle.

This is brilliant t.b.h. We do use it to doubt ourselves, but that is only an equal part in doubting each other. Witness the new crop of Grug memes. We are so insecure we must tear down great men of philosophy to make them like us as we see ourselves. These Grugs are responses to each other's positions, usually.

He's a pretty good meme.

Personally I hope Bartleby the Scrivener will be the next meme tbqh.

No that's just something normals repeat to themselves to get through the day.

Read Bartleby the Scriverer. The Anti-Sisyphus.
